This place is a gem, from the best damn nachos I've ever had, to the sweatiest dance parties I've ever wanted. It's a dive bar, that's the charm (and not one if those "fake" dive bars... You know the ones...). The graffiti is fun to read, the 90's era ceiling paintings are yin-yang-rific, yet the staff have almost always surprised me with their friendliness (don't ask for a split bill though... Bring your maths). I even got a really nice hug from the bouncer when I was having a tough night.
I'd go here almost any time of day for different reasons, even though I don't have enough tattoos to really blend with the scenery. Daytime for food, night time for dancing upstairs.
Warning to my single girls on dance-party-convoys: this not a great place to pick up bearded-tattooed boys at night. They're here, but they've been dragged by girlfriends or they aren't interested in your 'equipment' *achem*. At least that has been something me and my ladies have noticed.... Great place for a retro dance night with just the girls though!
