Armands is the most chill dive bar in Bloomfield. Come to Armands to sit and have drinks. Talk to the regulars. Talk to the bartenders. Or not, nobody gives a shit. Joe, Gail and Steve are all friendly and never put a wall of service or distance between them and their customers. The drinks are not the cheapest in Bloomfield. Pollocks or Lue's are cheaper but less expensive than the hipster haven Sonny's... if not in the price than at least in the pour. Expect reasonably well behaved alcoholics. The crowd gets younger as the day gets older.
The fish sandwich is amazing.
The bathrooms are sketchy with the benefit of respectful patrons. (Pretty clean.)
The ability to sit and have a drink is unparalleled. Bam! Armands!
