Michelle WendyJuly 10, 2013Everyday there's a drink of the day for $6 all day long. Excellent tunes, awesome bartenders and a sweet patio make this a place to visit. Frequently. A water comes with ice and lemon. What service!
Eitan LidergotSeptember 1, 2014My wife and I love this place. Rented it out for our engagement party. Super friendly staff. Awesome mixed drinks, beer, and liquor.
The Corcoran GroupFebruary 27, 2012Always chill, never too crowded, and serving up some of the most seriously good cocktails around. Start your evening with a Gabriel’s Gift or The Hanson Dry.
Natalie VJuly 26, 2016Cool little spot and an ideal place to chill when there's a long wait at Emily. They have a photo booth and a patio
Any night of the week, you will find an awesome bartender in attendance. Become a FB friend to find out the nights special.
The Tux is a great alternative to a Manhattan, but they do the classics too! (get it perfect with a twist, and your rye of choice)
Reiteration- bartenders are THE best. Never a dull moment, always a good time. "When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro."
Marvin OrtizNovember 25, 2014Great drafts and happy hour until 8. Great spot for waiting on a table at Emilys
Kate ZoopNovember 3, 2012Good cocktails, even nicer bartenders. Also pretzels. And seating. This place is all-around fantastic.
Bigger than it looks! Plus good cocktails and a patio.
"No movable seats"? Sit where you can. "Not much personality"? Bring better people with you. Bartenders and drinks are great. That's all.
Good beer, good baseball game on tv, terrible punk rock that makes me embarrassed for whomever is djing.
The go-to spot for former Moe's loyalists. Great music, fun crowd, always fun.
ᴡ mcgeeJanuary 29, 2011The Hanson Dry (gin, bitters, vanilla) = really strong and obvious bitters flavor, almost overwhelming. Comes in a martini glass with a twist of lemon.
Mary WoodsApril 7, 2013Nice place bartenders are great and very attentive. They even have s photo booth

Corey DineenJanuary 14, 2016Waiting for a table @ emily? definitely the place to go for "waiting for my table" drinks.
Not a bad place but go with friends or someone you can have a good convo with.
If Chaz were a filmmaker in post WW II Italy, he'd be a neorealist.
- Matt DuPreNovember 16, 2013One TV. No food, but they have menus from places nearby where you can order from.
- Bartenders are the best in town. Always a good time.
- Chaz &/or Chris can hold this place down w both arms tied behind their backs.
Hanson Dry uses yahrzeit candles for their outdoor tables.
Ill LiterateNovember 6, 2011Use the ATM in the back, but DON'T check your balance cause "connecting to the host" takes forever!
RaquelFebruary 12, 2011Nice bar atmosphere but doesn't mimic the classy speakeasy that I read about and was looking for.
sip on a Helen's Backyard in (of all places) the backyard
