    A boring old man bar in the east village sums this place up. There is no jukebox, no live sports on the television, and it never gets crowded or energetic.

    A throwback to the seedy days of the lower east village. 3 bucks for a pbr tall boy and a dark enough atmosphere to hide from everyone

    Good dive vibe. Make sure you definitely keep tabs on what you're spending and I'd even suggest asking for a receipt after each drink before you end up with a $300 tab for like 4 drinks. Common theme.

    Old school dive that brings back the dirty, sexy vibe of what the East Village used to be.

    East Village staple under management, yet again. Does its best to offer a legit NYC dive bar experience, but the patrons ruin that plan. Like how some dude just told me I was too loud. lol millennials

    It's your basic garbage dive bar when you need one.

    Very rude bartender named Kay Day works here. This bar is mostly filled with drunken old men. I do not recommend.
