Great atmosphere. Pool table on certain nights available. Has two levels each with as bar . Awesome cartoon walls...

James Arnold

Best happy hour in midtown --2x1 on everything from 2-6. Try to get Patrick for your bartender . The best--NYC lad from upper east side, way cool and plugged in. My man. And he's my neighbor on UES.

Jason Bligen

If your an Oklahoma Sooner fan, this is the place to be come football season. This place has been home to the Sooner faithful for 5 years, the roof deck is awesome in September!

Kathy Matthiesen

Upstairs has a great outdoor patio . Enjoy the 2 for 1 happy hour until 6pm!

James

Josh the barman is awesome. He makes this place. What a gent.

The Corcoran Group

Daily 2-for-1 happy hour specials and Karaoke on Tuesday nights. Arkansas fans can watch all the games and dine on Fried Bocconcini Mozzarella Balls.

Ruby Santiago

This has become a home away from home not only because of the great deals and good food but everyone on the staff always makes you feel welcome!!

Cole Kennedy

It’s a Bears bar , and I’m not a Bears fan, so I didn’t love it. But they serve an Italian beef dip that’s half decent (if outrageously messy).

Overlook offers a venue to enjoy drinks and food on the restaurant’s roof. In the colder months, patrons can stay indoors and enjoy karaoke , pool and darts .

Matthias

There‘ve been about 8 empty draft handles and about 3 ones working... ???? Furthermore, we did not feel very welcomed. Sorry for being a disturbance... ????????

Outdoor space would be nice....if you didn't have so many jackoffs smoking.

The name comes from the hotel in The Shining, not the rooftop .
