Easily my favorite spot in Astoria. Drink specials everyday, in addition to their amazing happy hour, 2for1 specialty cocktails. This place makes me feel like I have a drinking problem. In a good way.
Karen GanFebruary 16, 2012craft cocktails sound a little odd but taste absolutely delicious!!! if your taste buds are not so adventurous and like fruity drinks, jealous bitch is really good.
Amazing staff, great happy hour (2 for 1 pitchers of delicious sangria!) and terrific food. I love this place!
Danny GarciaMay 23, 2013I like to awkwardly order the drinks whilst looking over my shoulder nervously because I'm weird like that. (the names are funny, folks. Have fun with it.)
Jessica WeidemanDecember 8, 2011Just became my favorite place in Astoria. Amazing drink specials and Jeff the bartender huddles his ass off while being incredibly nice. Magic!
I love Mondays at this spot. Jeff is awesome and rocks a killer playlist. My faveys from the 80s ;).
Patrick HealyMay 7, 2010This place is really chill and the drinks are strong. Make sure you get to know Beto, the owner. He will introduce you to EVERYONE. Get the doggy style hot dogs - really.
Lounge on a comfy couch, sipping 2-for-1 drinks during happy hour--every day 5-8 pm. Can't beat that!
Cozy lounge, friendly staff, free music Thursday nights. Fun place!
Dan RothJune 27, 2014So the drinks are interesting. If you're a human don't order the Male person of the jealous bitch. It sucks. Came on a Thursday. It's amateur hour. Pedro is a cool guy though. Bring a date here.
Molly SchrumMay 8, 2011Best drinks in Astoria. Try the jealous bitch! Everyone should try this place. Happy hour every night even weekends!
2 for 1 any drink every day from 5-8pm. drinks are VERY STRONG.
Great bar. Any bad tip on here is from some self-entitled dbag. Go here to have fun and you will. That is if your not also a dbag.
Amazing specialty drinks! Great place to sit and chat with friends.
Daliza GarciaDecember 11, 2011This place has great potential. Great music but the waitresses suck. You have to go to the bar and get ur own drinks before they come to ur table. Music needs to be better.
Michelle SandersAugust 2, 2010Grilled chicken and gouda sandwich was yummy. Great wine selection, strong drinks, and hot staff ;)
Lisa GrowAugust 31, 2010Check their website for weekday specials. Retro Mondays are great with fun music and $5 martinis 8 - close.
All regulars hang out in the corner part of the bar.
Kate SilverJanuary 16, 2010Cute spot. For the bar's birthday the drinks on the menu were six bucks. I had a nice old-fashioned. Read more
MayaPapayaFebruary 3, 2010You have to try the Rapture dogs, they are unbelievable! And the pineapple tequila...
Ugh just dont - the free shot is tempting but honestly it's just to you can tolerate your surroundings
Tonight Saturday @ Rapture special is 2x1 Sangria pitchers!!!!... Refreshing 
Also, free condoms in the big condom holder between the bathroom doors!
Yuen ChowJanuary 29, 2010Try the calamari here. It's yummy. Especially with the pesto mayo sauce. :)
Jae MellzSeptember 3, 2011Do not order the 2 for 1 sangriasss Nooooooooooo alcoholll at all with or without ice and the food is generic.. sucks bcuz the environment is cool
Eric B.December 14, 2013The drinks are fine, but the service is slow and shitty. Plenty of better places on 30th ave.
- I love this place, but I've heard of people who will never come back due to rude servers and bar tenders...
