Came here twice. Realized they were charging us more for ginger ale than they were for alcohol. Will not be coming back. Got a splash of ginger ale and they still charged us an additional $7 just for the splash per drink…. From a gun. Might have been a different conversation if they gave me a can of ginger ale at least.

Amazing bar with the best beer selection in Mineola and surrounding towns by a long shot. I'm a hop head and my partner is not, and we can both consistently find draft beers here that we enjoy. It's a wonderful dive (my favorite type of place), with incredibly warm and knowledgeable manager Bob and the bartending staff. My brother, a huge beer head, visited a few years ago on a slow Saturday afternoon and the Smiths were playing and we were surrounded by Radiohead and Nirvana posters. A perfect experience in my book! Their food selection has changed over the years and I haven't checked out Ike's yet but can't wait for it.

Younger crowd. Wish I was still in college I would definitely hang here. Didn't eat anything just stopped in for a beer. Good selection of craft beer, friendly bartender.

The beer selection is top notch. The service and staff was even better. There's a beer, mead, or cider here for any taste. From light pilsners to heavy stouts, and of course a wide variety of IPAs.

La oveja negra has been a staple in my life for the past 10 years. It doesn't get much better than this if you're a fan of high quality brews, they also have board games, a wide selection of wines, spirits and every craft beer under the sun in a rotating basis plus they're open until 4am every single day.If you're in the area this place is an absolute must.

Have been going for years. I remember the hot dog days! Beer is excellent, they always have something new and exciting, and sometimes hard to find selections. Service is always good. If you're looking for a cozy spot and a cold one this is it.
