A name so apropos it
hurts. Surrounded by some of the snobbiest establishments in the city,
this bar has managed to survive since the 1880's on a steady diet
of old drunks, cigarettes and a ban on any modern convenience, including
cell phones and low-flow toilets. Basically it's a place for the local
AA members and OTB junkies to meet and discuss how well their programs
aren't working. Also a haunt for local yuppies who think their slumming
it by going to a bar without a female bartender in tight black pants
and a little strappy-shirt. [MF] |
