Yes! This bar is awesome!!
They have good drink specials on wednesday and thursday nights and they have Wii and Guitar Hero on a projection TV.
Bar staff and owners are super friendly... I think this is exactly the kind of bar our neighborhood needed.

Walked passed it several times this week on the way to the park with the dog. Seemed pretty quiet. Will stroll in tonight, and let you know.

I was inside this past weekend actually. Pretty nice on the inside, esp for a bar on Barney Street. When we went it wasn't very crowded but thats what we were looking for. Cheap drinks and they had Wii.

They should get some outdoor seating. The locals would provide clientele with free entertainment. I've heard some decent throwdowns between husband/wife/uncle between 1 and 2 in the morning.

Boomer's?
I wonder if Apollo and Starbuck are regular visitors there.
