the bar smells like a ball park mens room... I love drinking beers on the can as much as the next guy, but this stink takes it to a whole new level. coming soon: urinal cakes under the taps...
William HAugust 23, 2014Great garden in the back, decent drink selection. Little on the noisy side and sure it was shuttered by the health department, but it's still a great neighborhood joint.
Cooper SmithJune 21, 2012UWS's newest bar is the perfect addition to the neighborhood. Amazing beer selection, fantastic food (try the BBQ chicken wings), and huge beer garden in the back.
Caesar salad + sausage flatbread (make sure they don't drown it in Gorgonzola). The 5LT burger is also delicious but at 12oz it should be shared- or go breadless.
Our boys Clay & Chad know how to treat regulars. Come by to say hi to them! PS: They both know how to make an extra spicey bloody mary!
Winston S.September 7, 2014Good beer selection, but choose a bad day for brunch (Opening day for football),not enough waiters/waitresses for the crowd, and no bottomless drinks because of the games...- Casey SJune 20, 2013Awesome. The bar we went to the most while we were here. Good food, great bartenders, and a good atmosphere.
Eric VenkerJanuary 23, 2015Decent draft selection but you will have had most of what's on there. Patio out back is a good idea but not executed as well as it should be. Good for watching the game.
Brigette K.August 6, 2014Lots of beer selection. Cool backyard although GOOD LUCK getting any attention from waitstaff. Better to sit inside where they can't ignore you!- Great brunch special, as most plates are $10-12 and include a drink (Bloody Mary, mimosa, etc.)
Michael BozJune 3, 2012Great beer garden in the back...menu looks promising and the service is awesome...great addition to the upper west side
Janette RMay 12, 2013The waitress voluntarily set up separate checks for a large birthday party group. Who does this? Amazing. And terrific food and booze to boot.
Ben GJanuary 16, 2013Inside can be loud when sports are on. If the weather is nice, the beer garden in back is a must.
Benjamin HordellOctober 23, 2012Used to have the best Steak Frites and then they changed it to a lesser thinner cut. (FAIL). The food is good here though........
Great place for watching sports and drinking outside. Amazing garden and #glutenfree pear cider :)
David KrikorianMarch 18, 2015Try the salmon BLT! It's the only thing I get there now, and it's actually really delicious!!
Paddy RowlandJuly 13, 2013Great Irish breakfast and for a change they have real sausages and the staff are friendly
Excellent Eggs Benedict comes with really nice side of lettuce - best on the UWS
Yenisei Garces-BellDecember 27, 2013Great Wings, Service, Bartenders the best. Overal Experience. 10/10
Jeff MorganJune 15, 2012Amazing beer garden in the back, great tap list, and maybe the best burger in the city.
The food may be gastropub aspirational but don't come here for it - utterly mediocre. The beer selection is terrific, the bar has powerports, & there are outdoor options in front and in a back garden.
Evan FeistJune 30, 2013Make sure to sit in bartender Steve's section. Ask him to make up a drink for you; you won't be sorry.
Laurens H.April 28, 2013Watch out if you're not American. If you order chicken wings, 10 is more than enough since a "wing" is like half a chicken.
The 5Lt burger is just fantastic! Highly recommended.
Maxwell FoxmanOctober 22, 2014As nice as this place is, the backyard is more amazing. It's just gigantic!
The best bar on the Upper West Side. If you're in the area you have to swing in.
New spot, 18 rotating drafts, cool staff, GREAT beer garden! Absolute hidden must-see
Kenneth De RoozeApril 28, 2013Cool spot and good food, but the servers never find the right table. Funny after a while ;)
Jiin ChoiOctober 12, 2013Wait - just realized there's a spacious beer garden in the back. What! Awesome!!- The 5LT burger is awesome. Slab bacon and bleu cheese Blended INTO it. What??!!
Josue SwayJanuary 3, 2013Bartender was rude! She kept ignoring the bar and talking to the other brander. I've been here before at the dinning area and was fine but the bar left a sour taste in my mouth.
Steven GoldbachJuly 15, 2012Don't bother with brunch. I ordered eggs Benedict without the Muffin - came with two poached eggs on a plate. When I asked were the bacon was they came back in 10 sec with cold prosciutto cut on top.
- SEVEN IPA's on draft today for IPA Day! A hop-head's dream!
Maeva RenaudJuly 13, 2013Service sucks! Waited at my table for 10 minutes, had to go find the waitress myself to place an order while the hostess was just twiddling her thumbs in the front. They never even brought me water.
