Great atmosphere and friendly crowd, it's a good spot for a drink. The only disappointment was the bartender, who was quite grumpy and unwelcoming. When it came to paying, I asked much I owed but he didn't say a word and just pointed at the card reader. Fun venue, but the customer service could definitely be improved.
