Very cool, laid back bar . Not too big but long and not a big beer selection but the atmosphere makes up for it. Come on a night when you want to talk, enjoy a pint, and be in the dark.

Cole Kennedy

Great, friendly dive and a solid spot to catch Liverpool (and other Premier League) games when the crowd is too big at 11th St.

Serious Eats

International is cheap all day every day, with $2 Genesee, $3 Schaefer and High Life, and $5 for a Genesee and shot of Evan Williams (or $8 for Jameson).

Fatou Bah

If you want a cheap drink , this is the place to go. This is the complete definition of a dive bar , topped off with the not so clean restroom with graffiti all over it. Classic rock tunes too.

Drinkopoly

The ladies behind the bar were super sweet and let us take a pic with them. Order a shot and make sure to tip your bartender generously! Ask for the game, its behind the bar .

Village Voice

Lots of friendly lone drinkers willing to talk to just about anyone frequent here, despite it’s dark, rough around the edges look. And smokers rejoice: the outdoor patio is open year round.

Time Out New York

The best dive bar in NYC is filled with regulars making efficient use of the low prices. The owners have banished TVs to promote friendly banter and there’s always the jukebox to keep you company. Read more

Kristina Garcia

Classic dive bar . Cheap drinks , efficient bartenders , and the perfect place to finish your night once every other bar has kicked you out. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Lady Smile

Brought the girls here the other day and they had a blast! One of the best dive bars , the bartender is also amazing! Rob!!!

Marc Mayer

Happiest happy hour . There's a great little backyard to eavesdrop on some often awkward discussions. But why stop there? Add your own comments to the mix! Well , unless you're a racist.

Alex Kiernan

Efficient use of low lighting and early hours.

The Genesee and shot special is cheap but pretty awful tasting. Hopefully you are already too drunk to notice. Good jukebox selection, great dark little late dive bar if you are in the neighborhood .

Lady Smile

Their whiskey selection is pretty dope. I definitely misjudged them based on appearance!

Luke

The right balance of personality and anonymity. Take over the backyard with a few friends

Connie Chiu

Really cheap drinks . $5 cocktails . $4 shots. Small space. And some strange characters. Good pregame spot though.

Alex Robertson

Really big semicircular bar , with an older crowd

Mike Kalmus-Eliasz

Try a beetle back if you thought pickleback was interesting. Surprisingly good (though also I worry may give me a stomach ulcer).

Peter Hoshi

Look for Rob or Sawyer, both are great and lots of fun!

Serious Eats

International is cheap all day every day with a great jukebox .

The backyard closes between 9-10 so make sure to relax out there before for as long as you can! Read more

Cheap drinks , great bartender . One of fave neighborhood locals

Jason Gilbert

If you can read this when you're done there you did it wrong

Liam K.

Very dark, very divey bar . Very good.

Cristina F-M

they let you bring food into the bar , so my favorite thing to do is to get takeout from caracas, porchetta and wechsler's with a bunch of people and have a feast.

Vincent Q

Cheap High Life. Old school jukebox . Backyard . No television . Good bartenders .

Rainbow LA

Go here for the girls with rainbow hair, they may masculine, but are women in every way.

StageBuddy

The best drink to order is a Bloody Mary , always made from scratch! Read more

Kate Ritchie

Don't be a fool. Get the rolling rock and shot special. Tip the bartenders well .

Luke

Small, honest and a nice place to take a deep breath/sip or 20

Nick Kroetz

Great fallback dive bar for when you dont know where else to go in the east village .

Chris Maddern

Drink lots, it'll cost you about $10 in total!

Ronni

That back room area for chillaxing was perfect

Peter Hoshi

If you come on Sat before 8 pm, look for Claire, she's wonderful.
