  • I almost ALWAYS knock something over at Ted's (a candle, a lit candle, a beer, your beer, my beer, a chair etc...) and no one seems to care... 4 stars; I love this place (but it's filthy so I can't bring myself to give it 5 even though I want to). ________________________________ On the Spiderman Pinball Machine... One time, Mike S and I made elaborate plans for an amazing trip to Little Italy. We planned to eat Wings at Duff's, then go to Soundscapes then go to Ted's and play pinball. We were so excited about pinball, we (and by "we" I probably mean "I") told the waitress about all of our plans and invited her. She seemed interested. We walked across the street to Ted's while discussing the beer options and deciding to get Tankhouse; we were the only people in the building other than the guy who works there and he looked up and greeted us (angrily) with: "we're out of Tankhouse and pinball is broken." It was still a great night. ________________________________ On the beer prices... Once they had Duggan's no.9 on tap. It's a much higher alcohol % than most draught beers and when you buy it in bottles it's really expensive (by volume) because they're small bottles. We got a pitcher and the bartender charged us $19 for it, then told us that it should be $21 and she wouldn't charge us the difference this time. I was like, uhh, thanks, our transaction is already closed, but... Then we got pints of Duggans after we drank the pitcher. We drank too many Duggan's. I think we ate wings at Duff's that night too, and I might have lost my headphones. They were shure se210s - if you find them at Ted's, PM me, I want them back. Anyways, beer isn't really that cheap here - it's $17 for a regular pitcher and $6 or $7 for a pint. It's actually much too expensive for how shitty the place is. (I don't really care though.) ________________________________ Would you ever eat food here? Did you know they have/serve food? It's kind of random. Once, Adeel O. and I were here after work while he was trying to get away from his Mom who was visiting from Pakistan and I was having a beer before a date at Negroni. He wanted to eat so he asked Ted's if they have food. The girl said yes but she wasn't sure what they had because her co-worker hadn't gotten back from the grocery store with the evening's offerings yet. She returned and made him an assorted sub on a hoagie. You can bring in pizza and burritos from next door. ________________________________ On table service... They sometimes/usually have table service! Someone comes by and actually takes your order and brings you a beer! I love this aspect of Teds. I think they probably do this because a. they don't have enough glasses and b. it moves WAY more beer. ________________________________ On the restrooms... The restrooms here are disgusting, but they are not as bad as Toronado(http://www.yelp.com/biz/toronado-san-francisco). The women's room always has one stall out of order (occasionally the broken one rotates) and the men's room reeks out into the hallway (oh and there is no door). I'm just kind of used to it and I don't think the ladies room is as bad as the other reviews here lead you to believe. Or I have been desensitized because of recent trips to even divier beer bars. There is almost always soap and paper towels. ________________________________ There is a pool table here... There is a pool table here that I love. You can only play it between 7 and 10 for the most part because the bar fills up between 10 and 11 pretty much every night. Playing pool is VERY frustrating because 2 of the 4 walls are too close to the table for you use the cue parallel to the table and the other two of four sides are too close to tables that have lit candles delicately balanced in empty wine bottles on them. I frequently knock over at least one lit candle during a game. Pool is $2 and there is no loonie machine, you have to get change from the bar but they're always happy to hook you up. The pool table itself is in good condition and they have recently gotten new cues and replaced some of the balls. ________________________________ Overall, I love Ted's... - The bartender gave me 2 free beers on my birthday last week - I once got into a conversation about First Nation's resource rights (which made me late for the movie Gasland) - I think pinball is fixed (but some of the lights still don't light up on the front)
