"In the SLA’s explanation of the suspension, the office stated that at Boxcar Lounge — the restaurant’s legal name — Ehmann admitted to serving customers drinks without food, and also said that the bar did not have a kitchen nor did Ehmann prepare food, which has been a requirement of all licensed taverns dating back to 1964." - Erika Adams

This is truly the greatest bar in the East Village. The bartenders are wonderful here; easy to chat with about anything and everything. Extensive martini menu. The music is PERFECT. Very chill atmosphere with candles on every table. Nice back garden as well.

I'm almost afraid to write a good review for this place, because it's the kind of go-to place you want to keep for yourself. Great atmosphere, friendly bartenders, good alcohol selection, fantastic music, not too loud. You can actually bring a date here and carry on a flirty conversation and feel at home. Dark and comfortable and friendly.

Cute place, usually pretty quiet, so good for conversation at normal voice levels. Surprisingly large patio in the back. Extended happy hour Monday - Thursday: 2 for 1 drinks until 10pm.

Experienced the rudest bartender in my life last night. Terrible attitude as soon as we came into the door.

I was embarrassed by the rude regulars and bartender. I will not go back.
