They open at 8 AM and will serve you. And during the late afternoon, when you go back to retrieve all the lost items you left on the floor, the lighting is excellent.
- Glamazon DiariesNovember 11, 2012John Mayer loves this spot as he is often spotted there when he's in town. Under 30 crowd frequents this spot as well. Good looking crowd. There are five guys for every girl.
louis turJuly 16, 2016the location and the locals are the best part of this bar. It sits on a busy corner and has tall windows so people watching is fun. it's in a very touristy area but thankfully minimal tourists
Felix SargentNovember 16, 2014Forget fighting for seating at a hipster coffee shop, pull up a chair here and cozy into a beer and book in the early afternoon.
There is an "iPhone charging station" in the back room (corner next to the window). Yes, it's basically just a bunch of iPhone cables coming out of the wall, but whatever, it's brilliant!
Great spot for afternoon day drinking. If you're trying to be here for free hot dogs on Wednesday, get here early. They have them from 5pm "until they run out" which tends to be fairly quick.
Michael G.August 28, 2018One of the few dive bars in the area. Ideal place to grab a few beers, sit down, and talk.
Great dive bar. Don’t come here, it’s too crowded; thanks!Upvoted 4 days ago
Jacqueline WeppnerDecember 21, 2011This corner bar is often rented out to film movies and commercials. The booths are easily removed, making it the perfect setting for any era-inspired shoot with great NYC views.
Aaron BehrDecember 3, 2013Smells like hot and beer. Srsly, walk in and you know what i mean. Excellent pours on smartly curated draught beer list equals good times for all.
Every Wednesday at 5, they serve free hotdogs that've been cooked in beer. So worth it
john kellyNovember 28, 2013Dermot is an evil genius!!! Its a very very fun clean dive bar.... buyback can be a shot of whatever will zap yer brain or whatever you can't remember drinking. Its a JK ***** (five star)- aka: Shark Bar. (I know the shark on the south wall doesn't have any teeth so it looks like it's smiling... but really, like all sharks, it wants to eat you)
Ali ColangeloMarch 5, 2016One of my favorite bars in nyc. No frills, also no food but fear not - you can bring food in! The pizza place across the street is a good option!- Fun times quite during the day and crowded with great people weekends and nights!
Nate BeattyJanuary 18, 2016Good tap list, and feels like it should be a neighborhood spot even though it's full of Soho shoppers
Go on a Sunday at noon to get a free bagels w/ the fixins or on a Wednesday a 5 pm to nab a free Hot Dog!
This place has history for a lot of people. Have a beer over your next big idea here. I told myself I wanted to move to NYC at this bar, 8 months later I moved down the block without even realizing it- Port Harbor HomesOctober 25, 2013This is a great place. Laid back, friendly and a great beer selection. Stop every time we're in NYC.
I really like the Sharks on the wall. Really cozy spot for post work drinks.
Andrew WhiteOctober 18, 2015Love this place, nice mix of people from business types, to booze hounds to hipsters. Good craft beers
Stina P.September 4, 2017good spot to pop in for a drink while waiting for a table at a nearby restaurant
- Port Harbor HomesJuly 4, 2013Welcoming neighborhood spot with awesome beer selection. Everyone will be comfortable in this bar.
Awesome bar. Go on Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday and last past midnight, Dermit will hook you up as a prize.
Affectionately known as shark bar by the area locals because of the huge painted shark on the brick outside.- Smells like a hockey locker but still the best place to throw back some brews in NoLIta. Have come here after many disappointing holidays to kill my liver.
A nice little dive bar joint on Spring St. This place gets busy after 5PM.
Found this place by accident a few years ago and now make a point to stop in whenever I'm in the city. Outstanding people watching inside and out. Try the heffeweissen
Scott OConnorOctober 25, 2013been around the world at least twice. this locals bar treated us great , place is awsome.- Brew YorkAugust 3, 2011A delightfully divey bar with a fantastic beer selection. If you need a craft beer at 8am, this is your place... either that, or an AA meeting.
Take in life of NYC and definition of the greatest dive bar...
Leandro LageraMay 29, 2016Had some of my best marathon drinking sessions here. Love it so much. Also. Sharks.
Heard John Mayer stops by...come grab a drink and chill here. Door guy rocks!
Awesome early drinking place. The weekend evenings are full of bridge and tunnel fucks you'll wan to murder.
Legendary hang out. Friendly bartenders, laid back atmosphere. What's not to love?
