I really really enjoy this bar. It's so cozy and I love that they still kept the old snack bar sign. Monday is the best day to go as they do the vinyl vote. I was touched a few Mondays ago when I showed up super late and the bartender put my record on right away. Dude knows his stuff because he knew the record was super rare and expensive and thanked me for bringing such a treasured item to the bar. Too bad the people who voted against playing side B didn't know.
The bar is really really small.... cozy would be the proper word. Atmosphere is great, drinks are cheap and when you get mega wasted you can stumble over to the underwhelming lakeview for some late night poutine.
Other reviewers wondering who the Communists Daughter is? It's actually a song by the band Neutral Milk Hotel on the album In The Aeroplane Over The Sea.
Best Monday drinking spot in the city hands down.
