Just found out they have Cooper's Sparkling Ale. Such a good summer beer and my favorite from Australia.

You have to smoke in the front, which is annoying considering EVERYWHERE IS OUTSIDE!

Get there very early. Get's crazy packed. Go straight to the boat on the left. Less packed. Don't sit inside if you get seasick.

AWESOME DIVE BAR - if you want to be in Manhattan but not 'feel' like you're in Manhattan - this is the spot for you!
Diana PazMay 26, 2010

On weekends get here around 1pm or earlier to secure good seating. Any later will be a pain in the butt.

Feels like I'm out of the city on a pier somewhere. Food is mediocre. Just come here for the ambiance
Annesa LauJuly 15, 2010
What's more summer than a bucket of coronas, clam bake, burgers/fries and people watching?
Erin ByrneJuly 5, 2012
A great place with insufferable bouncers.
Drew WingertAugust 20, 2011
Great view of the Hudson river on a Sunday afternoon.

If there's a line outside....don't even bother waiting. "15 minutes" means an hour and a half if you're lucky.

If only Tim had been there, I could have thrown him in the Hudson.
