Activities on different nights - bingo, karaoke, trivia, etc, always a good time & super friendly bartenders. Artem, Moshi, Mason, David & the whole team

Review from Google Maps

David is absolutely wonderful! He makes sure everyone feels welcomed! He also makes a strong drink which I love. I will absolutely be back on Weds.

Great neighborhood bar! Everyone is so friendly (Mason is the best!) so it’s a great experience every time. I have also met a lot of wonderful people from the neighborhood. You can’t beat their Happy Hour and lovely air conditioning in the summer. UES staple for sure.
