    Just sit back and have a chat with friendly locals while enjoying a bowl of free popcorn. And a beer. Pro tip: On Tuesdays the New York Times Magazine Drinks columnist Rosie Schaap is behind the bar.

    The grilled cheese with kielbasa and jalapeno is just as amazing as you'd expect. The grilled cheese with jalapeno and strawberry jam, however, is something I expected to be weird but was fantastic.

    I didn't get the free popcorn and the grilled cheese, but there's a great selection of beers and the back patio is a great place to sit and catch up with people.

    I've been meaning to come in here for ages, and since I was waiting on the bus right outside it was the perfect occasion. Good beer, good company, and all's well in the world.

    A little slice of heaven, with over 50 types of beer, happy hour specials, grilled PB&Js, Red Hook Beef Jerky, and the coolest bartenders Paul & Dee.

    A bit warm in here for summer but I love the atmosphere. I think it would be a perfect cozy winter bar.
