This bar is cash only, no photos allowed inside especially at the bar, the menu is a large chalkboard hanging above with good prices, and they play punk music all night long. There is a nice outside patio seating, however it does close at 10pm and all patrons must either leave or move inside. There is indoor smoking, pool tables, and no line at the bathrooms. Only downside - with the popularity, it can get cramped. My boyfriend and I went on a weekday, and it was flooded with a mix of Americans and Germans. We stayed about an hour, as we were standing at the bar for the most part, but really enjoyed our time there.
