msMarch 11, 2015Pretty sure 70s soft core porn was playing on the TV here once. Place is pretty hip in the best way possible. Drink a lager drink, drink a cider drink, sing the songs that remind you of the good times
Alex RobertsonFebruary 19, 2017we had $4 well drinks and drafts--the wells came in a small glass full of ice, but that's a great deal nonetheless! a really nice spot
Ranu RajkarnikarNovember 6, 2014Fun low key neighborhood bar. Not too crowded, good beers on tap and a solid option if other places on St Marks are too busy.
emeFebruary 5, 2015Good refuge from the overcrowded bars nearby with a nice mix of beers on tap. An even better option if you snag the long spot by the window. Cozy feel with bands on some nights. Open late.- Nate BeattyMay 26, 2015If you are in the mood for a burger and a beer, this is the place. Come during happy hour (before 8) and sit in the window.
Favorite bar on St Mark's to relax. Decent selection of beers at a good price. Friendly bartenders. A beer named the Rogue Deadman. A quaint little slice of East Village perfection.
CITY GRITNovember 11, 2014This is one of our favorite spots to take CITY GRIT chefs in from out of town! It's is low key and friendly! Also Jalapeño Aioli!
Awesome live blues on Tuesday after 10pm. Low lit, intimate setting. Great bartenders and drinks. This is definitely a go-to in the East Village.
SaraSeptember 14, 2013Love the vibe here- not typical for st. marks. It's never annoyingly crowded and always plays great music and movies. Right now it's The Clash and Donnie Darko.
Tom JosephMay 19, 2015Laid back bar serving beer in mason jars; good happy hour and old school rock playlist. Get a table near the window
Joanne ReinardFebruary 25, 2016Great happy hour and brussel sprouts but the service is sooo slow (but friendly). Would still go back to test the sangria👌🏽
Ili VaniliMarch 21, 2016Yesss! For that chill East Village vibe. Open mic Mondays and whenever small bands are playing in the corner is a cool add on
LaDawn Penigar-MitchellJanuary 26, 2016Fantastic venue! Live music on Mondays and happy hour until 8!
It's got beer. It's also got a 90s playlist. It's got a lot of good things. You should go.
Andrew ChoiFebruary 16, 2014They serve drinks in mason jars, unless you get spiked hot cider, which you'll get in a coffee mug. I'm down with that.
Kimmie OhhDecember 9, 2019Loved their cake batter drink! Served in a mason jar, it has vodka, kahlua, cake batter & milk
Zach DrouinMarch 1, 2015Like a more refined version of your favorite dive bar. Great bar food until 4am. Try the bucket of bacon.
Victoria TinsmanOctober 24, 2012the complementary chips are amazing...especially when you dip them in their amazing jalapeño aioli. plus. any drink in a mason jar tastes better.
Colin BrownDecember 22, 2014Fantastic little place, the bartender Mimi is so nice! Also, free coffee outside on weekends
Warm, cozy atmosphere, great cocktails and local beer. Live music on Wednesday nights
Pol Gomà DeàsMay 1, 2016Great atmosphere, good craft beer starting at $6 and nice staff. Recommended.
Jane MoonJune 16, 2013Their green sauce with fries is actually amazing omg and you can get it for free if you check in with two friends!
A solid beer selection, the best burger I've had in a long time, and Max is the best worst bartender you'll ever have.
- A grimy St Marks bar with great happy hours price before 8pm. Ideal window seats too!
Vladimir DeminAugust 25, 2013This place plays amazing classic rock and roll. The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, The Doors just to name a few.
Mikahla VicinoMay 29, 2017This place is pretty much entirely lit by candles. They have a Pacman machine, chess and connect four.
KarenMay 26, 2017A group of us came here for a few drinks while waiting for our Please Don't Tell reservation. Good atmosphere but they didn't have half of the beers listed on the menu.
Grab a seat by the front window for some of the best people watching in the city. For real.
Charley MaAugust 30, 2014Happy hour specials till 8pm, 4 dollar well drinks! All bout them mason jars
Julie AvraFebruary 19, 2017Lovely spot by the window on a warm night, $4 well drinks, buckets of bacon!!!!
Ashley ChenFebruary 1, 2016Happy hour is never crowded, which is confusing because the drink deals are great
Yummy grilled cheese, chicken tenders, Mac and cheese. Tues trivia nights...
valerieFebruary 22, 2019Tuesday trivia 8pm-10pm, then live music. No kitchen anymore, but OK to BYOF.
BabaDecember 22, 2012Quaint little bar. Not to crowded, not to pricey. Fun place to chill with friends.
Jen DangMay 11, 2013Burger was mediocre, but fries with the green sauce and homemade chips were amazing!
Please don't tell anyone that it exists. So chill, so easy.
