Logistics & Planning
Parking: No on-site parking; metered street parking is very limited and garages nearby run $25–$35 after 6pm.
Dress code: Very casual — jerseys, jeans, hoodies all fit right in.
Noise level: Loud during games — conversations require raised voices when the crowd is in.
Weekend wait: 20–40 minutes during major games; minimal wait outside peak sports hours.
Weekday lunch: Typically no wait.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes — salads, fries, pretzels, and a few meat-free shareables.
Vegan options: Very limited — mainly fries and basic salad modifications.
Gluten-free options: Limited — burger bowls and certain wings, but shared fryers may be an issue.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Only if the date revolves around sports or beer — it’s loud, casual, and energy-driven rather than intimate.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes most of the time, but for prime games it’s smart to arrive early or be flexible with seating.
Is it kid-friendly? Early evenings are fine for older kids, but late nights skew adult with bar-first energy.
Best For
Better for: Beer variety, self-pour novelty, and large-group game watching compared to standard Midtown sports bars.
Skip if: You want quiet dining, craft-focused food, or a date-night setting — this spot prioritizes beer and screens.
