Greenpoint's youthful spot for brews and single malts.
by Karen Hudes
Huge windows provide an impressive corner view for this neighborhood hangout, which features an oak bar, wooden floor beams and a pressed-tin ceiling, as well as a sidewalk cafe. In addition to a choice of 10 beers on draft, nine wines by the glass and nine single malts, the menu also offers a limited variety of pressed sandwiches. Greenpoint and Williamsburg residents in their 20s, 30s and 40s make up most of the crowd.
great place to chat...
by stevenmsargent
Very chill place. Old world pub. Great selection. Quite though interspersed with a nice tunes (geered towards the Greenpoint and W'burg crowd).
OK
by guinessoholic
OK bar to meet for a quick drink and then move on to somewhere else. that is about it.
Other then the Guinness and the wanna be Irish that get sloppy drunk here- I would not consider this an Irish pub by any means. At least not a good one.
- Pros: beer
Very Average...
by bbbbrooklyn
Not much originality overall, very average service, no food , bar has that been there done that quality- it is like 500 other bars in NY..... Woodwork is nice and good selection of beer but all in all this place is nothing special....

A REAL New York Bar!
by brendankate
Greenpoint, a trendy neighborhood bordering Williamsburg, has, what my friends and I consider, a true New York Bar. From the wood floors to the tin ceiling to no tv's--it's all about drinking and talking here, folks. Great Bartenders and decent prices make this a worthwhile visit as a walk from Williamsburg or a ride on the God-forsaken G Train.
- Pros: Atmosphere, Bartenders, Crowd
- Cons: G Train, No food, Almost "Too Hip"
