Came here for work purposes and I cannot wait to come back for fun. The bar is beautiful in a wooded kind of way. They have so much beer, it's a beer lover's paradise. The Monday Trivia night was excellent and the staff is so much fun. Although I didn't get to taste any of the food, the menu looked and smelled delicious. They also have excellent promos where you can sample many brand's liquors throughout the week. I am so excited to go back!
Cool cheaper-ish place to hang around LES. Great selection of beer and perf mac&cheese!
Great time was had by me, son & his coworker. We stopped in looking for some adult beverages after downing some delicious fried chicken from another spot.
With that being said it turned out to be a really cool spot to hang out. My first drink was called I Am The Resurrection! That should've been a hint. Yeah that drink was so bad it would've awoken the dead! But it was just a bad choice. The bartender was very nice & my second drink I got a tasty beer of some sort. They had a huge assortment to choose from.
Being the gavones we are we ordered more food. His coworker couldn't believe we were gonna eat again. Son ordered chicken wings with buffalo sauce on the side & I wanted the duck Poutine but they informed me they were out. So I had to settle for roast pork instead. No loss to my tastebuds. It was quite delicious. Especially since it was my first time trying Poutine.
NYC has so many options to choose from but I would put this place in my rotation if I lived there.
A good time was had by all!

Great Happy Hour foods, and decent beer. Try the tacos – messy but so worth messy hands (and laps). Seems to be a great local spot with chill bartenders and caz atmosphere. If I was an actual NYer, I'd make this a common spot.
This is a nice bar that offer 30 craft beers, a big sitting area, and an open counter overlooking the street.
The only thing I had here was the duck poutine and maybe it wasn't the best choice considering I was sober. The portion is pretty big for $12. Poutine is French fries, cheese curd, gravy, and here they topped it off with duck so it was a very heavy meal. This dish is native to Canada and I've had it there severs times.
The poutine was just ok. The dish had way too much gravy so most of the fries were soggy vs crispy. There weren't enough cheese curds on there. The duck was a nice addition but it was a little gamey. The fish needed a some spice or herb to balance out the richness.
Would like to come back and try another dish here
Love this spot…5 thumbs up for their truffle fries!
The best truffle fires I have had and good sharing portion too. This place still selling food at 2:00am in the morning good place to go for good bar snack.
Amazing range of craft beer on tap, and if you are at all unsure regarding what to get the staffs here are more then happy to help you out and pick one for you.
Great bar in a great location with friendly staff and a huge selection on tap, plus a lot of great choices in bottles. Happy hour both during the day and later at night.
In addition to drinks, a fairly short but uniformly excellent menu. Some of the best chili I've had in a long time, lots of great looking sandwiches, and bar classics taken to a much higher culinary standard.
Stopped in for Brunch, but as soon as we sat the brunch menus were pulled. It would have been nice to be warned that Brunch was over but I saw the amounts of taps at this place and decided to settle in and have a drink w/ my gf.
Brian(sp?) told us he would be with us in a minute and BOOM ! A fountain of information about anything and everything alcohol came pouring out of him. The guy knew everything, conversation led to me finding one of my new favorite IPA's Citradelic and my GF was completely satisfied with her cocktail. It was the one that had the warning that it would creep up on you lol.
Overall great experience and we will definitely be back, we didn't even get into the bourbons at this place!!! I CAN'T WAIT!
