I've been here about 3 times and I do very much enjoy it and am actually planning to go again with some friends tonight! Of the few times I've been here, there haven't been very many people however, the people that have been there have been very friendly and there to have a good time! Also has a pool table and darts! The highlight for me apart from the very nice employees and clientele is the JUKEBOX!!

This an old fashioned Irish pub, been around forever. The Guinness is always fresh, the drinks are generous and the bartenders are friendly and know ur name. It's got a bit of 'Moe's Tavern' feel so dont go expecting flashy lighting and hip hop blasting you to deaf. It's just a simple place to get great drinks!

Love John Nolan, owner and extraordinary human. Everyone that bartends is beautiful in their own right: Tony - funny and truthful, Corrine - lively and fast, Bernadette - tough and soft, Tom - handsome, a chip off the old block, Willie - one of a kind and my friend. Please come by and have a drink. Best prices in Bay Ridge. Always a good time.

Nice patrons, right kind of rowdy. It is a layed back vibe. You can easily lose time here. Tables outside to enjoy the infamous hustle of Bay Ridge.

Stumbled onto this place during a visit to Dyker Heights. The locals and server was very welcoming. Only had a couple of drinks, which were reasonably priced, and played a few songs on the jukebox.

Great prices on drinks. Laid back bartender. Feels like a pub you'd see on TV.
