The bartender (a woman) is crazy aggressive, I asked for water and got asked to leave. My friend was having a drink and the security guard clearly knows her style and he told me I can stay and wait for her to finish her drink. Clearly it’s a common behavior… sad

Great dive bar. Inexpensive and relaxed.

Great bar but the barmaid was a vibe-killer personified. Hospitality obviously not her calling

Darts are in the back and the juke box has a decent collection of old songs. Bar is tight but it stays open late for drinks if you need a place for “one more”

Best local dive bar on the east side! Always great bartenders, crowd, music and drinks. One of the few authentic NYC spots still around. Can’t say enough good things about this place and the people that work here. Would give it 10 stars if I could ❤️
Used to love this place and it’s staff and popped in all the time when I lived nearby.Got cussed out by the bartender while I was in line to take a leak because my friend supposedly did not tip enough and we did not bring our empty bottles back to the bar.Guess this bar expects their patrons to bring their bottles (or "sh*t" as the bartender so succinctly put it) back to the bar. Would have happily obliged if I was asked, no clue that this was a thing here. Bouncer offered to clean up our table about an hour before but they did not end up taking all of the bottles and glasses. I do not care that the bouncer did not clean up our table and I would never hold that against a bar, but unhesitatingly cursing and yelling at your patrons for things that other members of your staff said they would do is absolutely uncalled for.Got tossed from the bar by the bouncer when I tried to clarify things with the bartender. Thankfully the bouncer was gentle :)) but nevertheless believe they should not have grabbed me when I was just trying to talk to the bartender.I hate to write this review because I have had good experiences with the previous bartenders. Plenty of other dive bars in the area with staff that treat you with basic respect.

DO NOT GO HERE.My friends and I were there on December 25th, 2023. We patiently conveyed our order to a blonde bartender (it was a combination of mixed drinks and beer). She was upset we didn’t group our order together(meaning we didn’t say 3 beers and 2 gin and tonics for example). After we got the drinks and paid for it, we were at our table and she came over (clearly very intoxicated), and proceeded to empty all our drinks on the floor in front of us and kicked us out. By the way, she got half of them wrong and overcharged us for them. We didn’t try to correct them because she was being combative.We are bewildered and genuinely confused about the interaction, our only takeaway from the situation being that she was drunk and took out her frustration on us.The manager came over and proceeded to do absolutely nothing. I’ve been in New York for 14 years and have never had an experience like this.
