"If you could command your Sims to go to a neighborhood Sims bar, the one in the game would probably look a lot like The Magician. Because (unlike most of the other spots on the LES) this place checks all the “normal bar” boxes: there are plenty of places to sit with a group, there’s a jukebox playing classic rock, and you can get a gin and tonic for around $7. (We don’t know the exchange rate for Sim dollars at the moment.)" - hannah albertine

The venue was larger than I anticipated, with a spacious bar and outdoor seating area available. Although I didn't order any food and didn't inquire about it, I can't confirm if they serve meals. The drinks were enjoyable and reasonably priced. I attended for a networking and social event, which involved a fair amount of standing. By the time I was leaving, I noticed the space had been rearranged with additional tables and chairs.

Space is bigger than I expected, good sized bar and outside seating are available. I didn't have food while here, nor did I ask. So I can't for sure say if they serve food or not. Drinks were good and not crazy on the pocket. I was here for a networking / social event, so I did a lot of standing. I know that the space looked different by the time I was leaving with extra tables and chairs.

Lovely bartenders here, and welcoming diverse crowd. Summer Breeze cocktail was splendid and light. Beers on tap as you’d want, plus wine. Fun spot.

Dan White is absolutely math-magical!!! My daughter and I along with our friends had an incredible time. Mind blown by his performance. A must see for NYers and out-of-towners. We were thoroughly impressed. On top of the show being amazing, Dan is also humble, kind and funny. Lovely meeting him after the show. Super down to earth.

I really liked this bar! The music was just the right volume to be able to hear your friends and there was a ton of seating to choose from. Drink prices were reasonable and the friendly bartenders were quick to get your drinks. Good vibes all around!

Outside looks a little shabby but inside is nice and clean. Cash only. Happy hour pints at $5 and Budweiser bottle is $3
