Spotted Cheetah Reviews

Gem, and a dying breed, and I hope it has a long life, but during the pandemic it has slowly begun attracting Jimmy Buffet-loving date-rape types (the kind that usually hung around the barge).

In the early days of the pandemic, Greenpoint resembled a ghost town--with the notable exception of Safehouse. This bar's light was always on and its to-go drinks became part of our new normal. Along with great pours at a great price, the staff--Kyle, Sal, John, and Tony--are the unofficial mayors of Franklin Street. Come for the drinks, bathroom access, and adorable dog-watching...stay for the new friends and small-town kindness.

Wandered here after an event at the expo center. It was a Sunday afternoon so the place was pretty empty but was filling up by the time we left. This place isn't too fancy but has a great vibe. Beer is cheap ($5 each for most) and we were able to watch some basketball. Downsides were that they only had a single bathroom and I definitely saw a staff member sleeping on a lawn chair in the kitchen. But neither of these really effected me so no harm done!
