A truly fine neighbourhood bar in the James North village. Amy, Mirko, Kathy are such wonderful and good natured hosts.

The regulars are stalwarts. The special evenings are really quite special. Even ordinary evenings are colourful, lively, and congenial. The selections from the jukebox are very eclectic, always interesting, and reflect the diverse nature of the clientele.

The draft pints are fresh, cold, focused, plentiful, and at an excellent price.

There is an extraordinary community feeling to this bar. If you are lucky, on a given early evening you may spot my friend the Mayor of Jamesville. He’s the tall distinguished gentleman, at the bar.

No food other than bar snacks like nuts and chips — but that’s not a problem when there are so many good independent restaurants to grab a bite nearby. Cowabunga Pizza, Ola Café, and more.

Five Stars to the Five Star!

Make it your Hamilton hangout.

Great little bar to go for a drink. They have pabst on tap which is a selling point for me. Owners and staff are all super friendly. It's never a bad time! Bonus points for the summer patio!

Great atmosphere with cheap beer. Need to keep your wits about you but if you're not too drunk it's a very fun place to be.

It is what it is. Soon it will be just like everything downtown.. for the new rich people and not us who grew up here, when it was actually hard.

A great fun atmosphere, the owner is very hospitable. Went here on Saturday night with a group of us ladies for a friends birthday and we had a great time. The clientele is friendly and the juke box has the newest songs. Really loved our experience
