"A neighborhood hangout opened by bartender Dwayne Mitchell in 2013, known for its cheap drinks, pool table, expansive patio, creative slushie drinks, and chef pop-ups." - Erin Perkins
"Local 616 makes for a super relaxed spot to watch any game. Owner Dwayne Mitchell will mix up plenty of fun cocktails for customers or pour a few beers. There’s also a back patio for those who need to chill out in between the action. Also check out the guest chefs in the kitchen." - Erin Perkins, Eater Staff
"Local 616 owner Dwayne Mitchell was a mainstay of legendary dive bar Upper Deck Tavern (RIP), until he went out on his own to open his own place on upper Meeting Street. It has all the hallmarks of a dive — cheap drinks, a pool table, and a cast of regulars — but it also boasts an expansive patio, creative slushie drinks, and pop-ups from aspiring chefs in the kitchen." - Erin Perkins
"This casual neighborhood pub rests in on Meeting Street in the same building as Spero and serves up a varied beverage selection to a — not surprisingly — local crowd. Expect a variety of Moscow mules, televisions, and good conversation." - Parker Milner
"Spero opened at 616 Meeting St. on March 3, 2015 with a menu of beef tallow biscuits, pork fat crostini, and pan roasted porgy. The restaurant became known for killer sandwiches, bread tastings, crisp fried chicken, creative small plates, and a sense of humor. The owners decided to close it to focus on their families and personal lives." - Erin Perkins
