One of my absolute favorite beer and wine spots in lower Manhattan! Staff is kind and tentative.Great environment. A few more available seats would be helpful, but all in all a great bar!

I've been here three times, and two out of the three it was because every other bar in this area was packed. Don't get me wrong: this isn't a last resort type of place. Far from it -- literally, it's kind of far to get to from the main thoroughfare of the West Village. It might look like it's packed on the outside (especially on a Thursday/Friday/Saturday evening), but usually you can find seats inside. The place has an interesting set up. There's a sleek leather booth running along one entire wall with three tables. These are probably the prime seats in the house, so to speak. The space is bigger

I wanted to rate this higher. I really love this venue and the drinks and location because its romantic, dark, tucked away, not crowded. But we had a negative altercation with some other patrons in this bar who were trying to start fights with the bartender, it was just uncomfortable.
