NYC Restaurant Workers Struggle to Get Vaccinated

At the end of the night with some friends we decided to settle down and get a few drinks here. Place seemed like a nice spot to hang out but then the long haired bartender wearing tights approached us with an overwhelming attitude. He tried telling us this wasn’t the place for us to be and that we should leave. Their bouncer came up and was asking why he wanted us out and that we were fine to stay here. The bartender eventually escalated to ripping the table from under our arms to get us to leave. If customer satisfaction isn’t your thing why be in a position you negatively satisfy your customers? Service - 0/10!

Their long haired bartender destroys the vibe. We stopped by for shots yesterday being in a great mood and basically it was destroyed. No “hi guys” no “what can I get for you”, no “how you doing”. Just 2 shots with a mean face and cards reader in front of my face. If you’re miserable in your life that’s your problem , don’t make it others. $29 for 2 shots with miserable bartender who doesn’t even talk to you is kind of too much.

Dive bar with dive bar quality drinks at cocktail bar prices with dive bar rules. You want a pint? $9. You want a meh cocktail? $16. You want a bad well? Also $16. You want to pay with a card? There's a $20 minimum even if you offer to pay with a debit card so it's clearly not about the fees. Decent atmosphere, but unfortunately not worth the price. Their business model is waiting for people to be sick of lines at other bars in the neighborhood and settling here.

Edit: There is now another review saying that they lost someone else’s card, too. Seems it’s a consistent problem for them. Extremely sketchy! This place lost my credit card. Gave it to them to keep my tab open and when we went to order another round, they couldn’t find it. They had what looked like two other cards behind the counter and nothing else. I was a bartender and server for years. Dunno how you lose someone’s card like that when y’all aren’t even busy but yeah. Be careful giving them your card I guess.

Such a great dive bar. Stumbled upon it casually walking the streets. Very spacious indoors. They also have a outdoor area in the back of the bar. The bartender was super helpful and make some delicious drinks. Drinks were affordable. They don't sell any food but there's plenty of spots around there area to grab a bite. Looking forward in coming back again.

Cool bar but could do without the surly bartender.
