Description




Alongside the cheap beers, the bar pours a variety of whiskeys and specialty options like dirty and chai martinis. The service and atmosphere tend to shift; you might get attentive, non-overbearing staff, but visitors note that experiences with the vibes can vary. While it is usually a relaxed setup for talk, some nights—like a quiet Sunday—can feel a bit insular, with a cordial but unfriendly bartender and the distinct feeling of being watched by other patrons.
