Dart Inn Bar • $
83-16 Parsons Blvd, Jamaica

“"Jimmy's Dart Inn" and I think Jimmy was the old guy there at the end of the bar. We (wife & I) stopped in at noon is. We were swept up in a time machine and arrived here. Décor could use an update. Bar stools were all swivel and every one of the many we tried was wobbly. Bartender made a crummy vodka sour for my wife, but then she thinks every one makes crappy vodka sours. A bit of a dive, we like it. Also, TWO dart boards (The Dart Inn, get it?)“

“I didnt eat there but my band soft spot played a show there. The band Lo Lux put it on and they did a fantastic job hosting, running sound and being one of the best bands I've played with !
As for the bar itself the staff was fantastic ! barely a wait for a drink even with a packed bar ! If you have a severe peanut allergey this may not be the place for you as they serve peanuts like a bar would serve pretzels with the shells being thrown to the floor. All in all aside from the peanut situation I would definitely recommend going and if you're lucky enough to catch Lo Lux, well you will have struck gold.“

Beer Flight

“If I can remember, I always come here every friday night. Which is karaoke night. So, my review will be based on that specific night only.

Been there few times on friday night. Very busy night, very long line of karaoke, but the DJ did a veryyy good job. He remembers people's faces, like literally remember who requested what. His great memory amazed me and not to mention there is no pause or break. So, eventho its a long line of karaoke, but you will eventually singing.

Bartenders are great, drinks okay. Prices normal for the area, drink sometimes good, sometimes meh.

But yea, so far its been pretty amazing experience.“

“Go-to neighborhood spot that stays until relatively late.
6 stars for service and specifically Paolo- always polite, smiling and great service
-2 stars for the bouncers: poor attitude, rude with the illusion that they have authority. It would be great if they can get real; ID reading barely makes them different that the rest of us - haha
5 stars for the beer: great draft and bottled variety
5 stars for the music!

Overall 4 stars, just because the bouncers kill the vibe.“

“The owner of the bar Kathryn could not have been anymore welcoming. After a long day of work, I came here to just get a drink and leave. Kathryn escorted myself and my party to a seat after I had thought it was packed. She closed the doors to the bathroom to make it more comfortable (even though the bathrooms were very nice and clean!) and then moved us to a better seat when some opened. A regular at the bar who owned a restaurant cooked food for the bar and it was free to everybody as it was his brother's birthday. The food was delicious! The bartenders were absolutely great too, making sure the drinks had more than enough alchohol in them and they were cheap. Great spot to stumble upon, even better experience!!“

“101 is the last true dive bar! The final frontier of bar hopping. Of course it’s rough around the edges but that’s the character I seek! It’s welcoming once you’re comfortable there, the drinks are abundant and strong. The vibe are always so incredibly positive and strong. The dancing and climbing around the wooden furniture is such a whimsical experience. At a certain point everyone’s on a vibe together. The dark haired bartender with tattoos is one of the free-est most unique individuals I’ve ever met. I am a big fan of the energy and personality in this bar.“

“I’ve been there several times over the years and I’ve always have had good experiences. It’s got a mild dive bar vibe. They have good beer and drinks. The bartenders that have served me there have been polite and attentive. I only go there once every couple of months or so, but I’m not a regular. The bar isn’t sleek or beautiful. Lone Wolf is just a really good bar.“

“A great, cozy neighborhood bar. No frills, no food but they let you take in outside food and there's no shortage of options nearby. Usually a mix of folks of varied ages. I've gone in several times over the years and there are always nice staff working behind the bar. A handy spot to stop in for a pint when you get off the train at Roosevelt Ave and nature calls 😂“

Such a cool spot—you can even bring outside food in since they don't have a kitchen. They’ll even bring you a plate and silverware without you even asking! It’s a rare find with such a chill, neighborhood vibe. I’ll definitely be back“

“At This Point, I Guess You Can Say I Am A Regular At The Establishment. I Began Going To Cheap Shots Last Year. First Time I Went Was For My Birthday. My Birthday Is February 25th, But I Went On The 24th. And I Thoroughly Enjoyed Myself. Lets Just Say I've Been Frequenting There Ever Since, And I Even Spent My Birthday There Again This Year. They Have Great Food Options, Esthetically Pleasing Decor, Its A Spacious Venue With Ample Seating, A Pool Table, A Backyard With Seating, A Jukebox But They Also Have A DJ On Some Nights. Each Day Of The Week Is Themed And They Offer Special Depending On The Theme. Very Friendly And Amazing Staff That Makes You Feel Like You Are Supposed To Be There. Oh And Most Importantly They Make Some Amazing Drinks!! The Make Standard Drinks But They Also Have A Menu Full On Wittingly Named Shots Bombs And Drinks That You Can Choose From.“
