Came by taxi, took a second to find the "Public" on the door.
Simone JoySeptember 25, 2011
Get here early on football Sunday or have more than two in your party for an exclusive seat.
Fatou BahJune 6, 2015
They have a rooftop but not the best views. Solid drinks.
LindypromoJuly 21, 2010

Huge screen and plenty of smaller flat screens. Perfect for a sports night out where you can SEE the game!

The bartender named "TOMMY", on the second floor, is an ASS - avoid him until he gets fired.

Very nice I go to come here
Brian BrandlerSeptember 17, 2011
Good vibe and roofdeck makes this place a must-visit bar.
Andrew CarpenterMay 23, 2013
3 floors of bar!
Campbell BirdJuly 23, 2015
They have a bad beer selection and it's all overpriced. Lots of tvs though.
Liz MargolisJuly 19, 2010
Always busy, good happy hour deals, the roof deck is so much fun!
Mandy JenkinsMarch 24, 2011
So they have these fried mashed potato balls that deserve a Nobel Prize. You should have one.
Gary BarrettSeptember 20, 2015
Slow service. Nice place to watch sports. Many stairs!
Andrew ThalOctober 23, 2011
Tvs galore, $5 burgers and half price wings on Sundays!

Nice roof, otherwise avoid at peak periods. They most certainly do not deserve to be charging a cover ... go anywhere else.
Crystel StewartJune 24, 2011
The rooftop smells like cheeseburgers because of Shake Shack next door lol
Casey SOctober 16, 2013
I met the love of my life here.
Bill SOctober 25, 2011
Best MNF spot in the city!
Doug EvansSeptember 6, 2013
Thought maybe I could come here and get a few beers and food for the Ravens' opening game. Not possible due to no service. Twenty five minutes and counting with no waitress.
Betsy SteplerFebruary 17, 2014
Sat at a table and no one came to wait on us. One toilet wasn't functioning and the other didn't have toilet paper. At 7pm. On a Sunday...
Amy LiuNovember 22, 2010
house music played on rooftop bar + $3 bud lights = good times
The Ramsbury GroupFebruary 22, 2012
Looking for a place to catch you game of choice on a week night? Give these guys a try. Ask the bartenders for the sound from the game and they may just put your team up on the big screen for you.

About as hip of a sports bar as you will find. Great music. Nice vibe. Read more

Excellent bar to watch the World Cup at during the week!

One word: ROOFTOP.
Bobby CordierMay 22, 2010
Great spot for watching the Champions League final today. Should be a good spot for the World Cup.
SanjyotFebruary 23, 2014
Crowdedddddd
Jeb GavinMarch 26, 2010
Probably not worth the trip on weekend nights. Drinks are expensive (granted, it's Dupont) and the place isn't really a sports bar starting around 10 it becomes just another meat market.
Alexandra GibsonMay 22, 2010
They reserve tables for bottle service (starting at $400). Just sit down, act like you own the place, and say that you're thinking about it; they won't enforce.

The $400 minimum on the second level is ridiculous! What kind of sports bar does that?

Half of wings on Tuesdays
