It’s my go to bar. The vibes are always GREAT. Just get a beer and chill in the backyard with your friends. You can also carry 1 dollar bills to play songs using the jukebox. Expect only what you expect from a dive bar.

This is one of those classic dive bars you love to find, exuding history and kitsch and vintage flourishes mixed with a kind crowd of regulars. The bartender who served us was chummy and garrulous, with an eye on his known clients who came ready to chat about life, sports, and the like. The cool Wisconsin Pilsner on tap was refreshing and potent, and we washed it down at a corner table surrounded by old antique glass, lights, and beer signs popping off the dark walls with a neon glaze. In every corner your eye wanders you find a spark of outsider art or conversation piece. We spied an outdoor back patio that called out for warmer moods. The brew was priced for sessions. Stop by.

Such a fun bar! Came here to celebrate my brother in law’s bday and we had a great time! Solid prices, friendly and attentive bartenders, and the vibes are great. It doesn’t get uncomfortably packed like other bars in the city do so this place is great for groups or for a date night. Made the trek from Yonkers and it was totally worth it! Hope to come back soon, highly, highly recommend this place!!

Low-key down to earth spot. Reasonably priced, friendly service and open late. A go-to spot in the BROOKLYN. Drinks hit.

My new favorite bar.... I wish I lived in NY! Our team was working in the park and this place was halfway home. They don't care what you wear and aren't weird about backpacks (we had tools and laptops to take home). Drinks are inexpensive, they have twisted tea (a colleague was searching everywhere for it), a decent wine selection and plenty of standard cocktails and beer. Love love love the decor! Dollar bills on the ceiling, poetry on the tables, skulls in the floor and vintage neon everywhere! It's like a hipster Cheers, but I'm a good way. Definitely have recommended it to my friends passing though and hope to be back soon!

Viktor will take care of you. He’s the best. You won’t have to ask for anything because he’ll ask you if you’re good and then take care of you.
