We had drinks in this wonderful bar. It was most cozy, relaxed and nicely worn. The service was ok, though there was only the bartender thus you had to wait for the drinks. The location is perfect after dinner in SoHo. The music was not played too loud - you could discuss there. The pricing was moderate. We could come back.Parking: I would come by the subway or Uber.

Nothing is finer than taking a loved one here and putting too much money in the jukebox to create the soundtrack for another memorable evening at THE BEST DIVE BAR IN NYC. Two drinks in and you're wondering how they get the Budweiser to taste like vintage Dom Perignon and the bags of chip(s) to taste like Périgord truffles while you're rocking to your favorite jams. Lesbians make out with their dogs here. Yuppies from the Midwest rub shoulders with artistic types. African American transvestites hit on white boys for personal amusement. Hello? Hello? What's the process for land marking a bar? 5 stars for Milanos!!!!!!!

We went in and all ordered straightforward drinks (tequila soda, etc.). We thought that given the dive bar nature and the fact that our drinks were not particularly hard to make, a $1 tip per drink was reasonable. Customer service was not anything outstanding. The blonde bartender came back and said in a very condescending manner that 20% is the standard and we need to tip her more. In my opinion, tipping is optional and based off quality of service, and the service we got was not worth 20% of our tab. Their responses to negative reviews on here also say a lot about how they treat customers. Will not come back.

It smells like farts. Because I’m pretty sure the guy who was sitting next to me kept farting. Hopefully he’s not there if you visit.

Seedy style dive bar that you might not actually get into because the volume of available space is very limited ... check, check, check, check. This was a great first stop on our bar hopping. And I'd say, "Enjoy!" if you're lucky enough to get a seat. If you're boujee - skip it; this is not for you. If you wanna be seen - skip it; this is not for you.

This is such a chill dive bar. We love when we get the chance to have off during the week and be able to day drink!!! All the bartenders we have encountered have been so nice and friendly- immediately telling us his name. I love that because it makes you feel right at home. Music is great, atmosphere is great!!! My norm speech-dive bars are not all about you- go order a few beers or simple mixed drinks, relax, have small talk with your friends or other guests and just have a nice relaxing time. No frills or expectations!!!!
I was in New York on vacation a couple of years ago with some friends and this place is by far the best bar in town!!!!! Looking forward to go back!Cheers from Buenos Aires!!!

Whole place smells like farts due to lack of any air circulation, and bartender serves as if she's doing you a favor.

This is such a chill dive bar. We love day drinking especially if we have off during the week. This place opens at 8am!!! Every bartender we have encountered is really social. I wish I remember the first guy's name- he immediately told us his name and super friendly. Music is great!!! If you want to be able to have a few drinks- chill and just hang a little with or without friends this is an ideal place. It's been many years since we came here in the evening so I can't tell you how busy it is during those hours but this is a perfect destination for an afternoon delight!!!

Great dive bar in NYC and reasonably priced. Beer shot combo only 6 bucks. Well definitely continue to come here. Only chips and snacks available.

No frills dive bar, which is my kind of dive bar. Small place but it opens up a little bit more once you move towards the back. The bartenders were super friendly and took a little time to chat and get to know us too since the place wasn't very crowded at the time. Not sure if they sell food dishes but snacks are available to buy from behind the bar. I'm a dive bar person so if you like that vibe you'll def get what you're looking for here.
Worst bar ever, horrible aggressive
