Hours: Tue-Sat, lunch and dinner; Sun, brunch and dinner; Bar open until 2 a.m. daily.

No visit to DUMBO would be complete without stopping by this beacon of neighborhood hipsters. Pop in during happy hour (Tue-Fri, 4 p.m.-7 p.m.) for $2.50 Yuenglings and $3 draft beers. Grab a game of pool on the orange felt pool table (free) or muse over the revolving installations of works by local artists. Although the days vary, there's live performance of some kind (music, readings) at least twice a week, and on every Sunday, a Bluegrass band entertains the brunch-time crowd.
