great ambiance, historical presence, friendly people and staff, you might even run into someone famous ... yummy drinks!
Pros
+ great bartenders and staff!
Cons
- no food but plenty close by

Great place to hang out and have some drinks. Great location and good drinks. Mostly young good-looking professionals are usually here. What I also like about this place is right next to a new bar (Corner Bar). Also a really great place to hang out...even better looking people. So, it makes bar hopping really easy. Check it out.
