Awful wait staff... Ignorant slow and unhelpful

Great wings, good selection. Nice place for visitors /new to NYC & Village. PRO: Part sports bar, pub, and outdoors seating is flexible and fun; creative chef. CON: Bathrooms tiny and cheap-looking.

The service was lousy my first time but I gave it a second chance and had a better server then. The food and margaritas are good. Fidy is a great waitress and is on top of everything. Very friendly.

Sunday brunch and football..need I say more! Great location to meet up with friends for drinks & a burger and view the Halloween Parade and Pride March.

Awesome place for summer. Nice ambiance. Cheap margaritas and dinner specials with wine. Great spot. Outside eating was fab.

delicious bbq pulled chicken, deplorable service. the server had us write down our orders at the end -- who does that?

The traffic moves past the window at a speed that reminds you your life is passing you by.

Look, here's what I got in descending order of goodness: apple crumble (2x) (in sequence, not parallel), nachos, eggplant parm, wings.

$17 prixe-fixe brunch is a great deal - an entree and bottomless drinks
Ariana AtwaterNovember 16, 2013
Cheapest brunch in the city. $13.95 includes entree and unlimited drinks.

Pitcher of Sangria with a plate of nachos outside in the sun, and just watch people... :) Awesome!
Jeff McCordMay 31, 2013
Sitting outside is great for people watching, and a twilight view of Freedom Tower is tourist-worty.

Come on a Tuesday for strong drinks and great conversations.

More TVs in the back than you can shake several sticks at.

when you go to watch a pats playoff game in the midst of winter, don't be tempted to sit by the fire. it gets too hot. sit by the windows and you'll thank yourself later.

The Long Island Ice Tea's are incredible!
Stephanie Paige MillerNovember 14, 2012
Strong greyhounds and inexpensive brunch in prime location.
Topher AdamsApril 14, 2012
These people are obviously haters. Both the food and the drinks are perfectly fine.
Brittany JamesJune 21, 2012
The chicken fingers aren't worth it. You only get 3 with watery honey mustard and cocktail sauce...
Dennis KovalyovJanuary 27, 2013

The sangria us always good. The Fire Island club us a great lunch option.
Roz SNovember 11, 2012
Fantastic frozen margaritas. On the rocks isn't half bad either.
Zach MaierSeptember 30, 2012
Lots of TVs in the lower room, covering most of Sunday football. Drinks are decently priced for NYC, food is mediocre bar food, but the service is atrocious.

Great brunch with unlimited mimosas for $12.95. In NYC that is UNREAL!
Ermin JulienDecember 25, 2011
We Order The Sangria by the pitcher. Best Hands Down.

Food is downright rank here. As well as the infestation of Boston sports fans.
Sean InglesFebruary 29, 2012
Good food and service! Definitely worth it!
Prince$$ A.June 15, 2013

5 shots for $10, awesome!!
VernaSeptember 15, 2012
Get food elsewhere in the neighborhood but this is a great place to watch the Sox or Pats.
Andrew SantiagoNovember 9, 2013
Once you have two margaritas, even the shittiest menu items taste ok. Bacon/Avocado sandwich was ok. Fries were great. Meh.
Afi Yellow-DukeAugust 8, 2015
$4 margaritas are great
Vito ZarrilloJanuary 16, 2011
This place is great unless it's a Sunday during the winter. Then it's overrun by Mass-holes rooting for the Patriots.
SaraMarch 30, 2013
The service here is seriously terrible - it's cheap and in a cool location but don't be in a rush if you come here
Jennifer ShumateAugust 11, 2012
I've never heard of a banana margarita before, but it was damn tasty!
Empanada LadyOctober 21, 2013
