Came here on New Year’s Eve expecting a fun night and instead got a masterclass in how to make customers feel unwelcome. From the moment my African American boyfriend and I walked in, the energy was hostile, dismissive, and uncomfortable.
Staff were rude, inattentive, and clearly selective about who deserved basic respect. We were ignored, spoken to with attitude, and treated like an inconvenience while other (non-Black) patrons were welcomed just fine. It was painfully obvious and honestly embarrassing for a place that claims to be a “pub” last I checked, pubs are supposed to be warm and welcoming, not cold and exclusionary.
Do better. Or at the very least, stop pretending this is a place for everyone.

Best bar in New York

The owners, bartenders are always rude. I don’t get it.. we’re not obnoxious, so what’s the problem? Don’t host events if you don’t want the turnout. They’ve been rude to so many people that I’ve witnessed
Michael Jaikaran
Went to this place, for the Knicks vs Pacers game 2, and to celebrate college graduation with my friends. Its a small place but the environment is very friendly. The bartender is super chill. And the shots are actually decently priced, as well as the drinks. Love it! Will go back again!!!

Love this place for a late swing by and grabbing a drink. Simon who runs the bar is super friendly and fun.
The bisexual version of Jake’s Dilemma, very cool 2000s themed bar with darts and more. Come for the games, stay for the sunny D seltzer
Alessandro Perazza
Definitely the best pub in the neighborhood. Feels like to be in the McLaren's pub of HIMYM. Simon (bartender) is cozy and he makes you feel at home
Burger Meister
Great place for beer and trivia!

This place has the nicest staff and is a small local spot with a lot of regulars. Every time I get the check I’m shocked at how cheap it is compared to my usual bar tabs.
