NY MAG SAYS: Elements of this stylish Greenpoint bar's former incarnation as a wood shop are still evident: Old window frames now line the rugged pressed-tin walls and the ceiling beams are used as benches. The industrial double doors, concrete floor, and raised loading dock entrance were left untouched by the co-owner, who uses the high-end chocolate in martinis such as the spicy Screaming Mozart, a combination of chili-infused vodka and hot cocoa. In the front room, after-work regulars line the chic metal bar that glows with red candles or gather around one of the polished black zinc tables lit up with embedded light strips. The best seat in the house is a table behind the DJ booth—they spin every Friday and Saturday—that's warmed by a fake fireplace and watched over by a lone piece of kitsch, a porcelain good luck cat. The atmospheric back room provides more seating between turns at the dart board or at the pool table that basks under an enormous and ornate round skylight
[From CitySearch] The Scene: Standing out from the neighborhood's pubbier joints, this industrial bar boasts a construction of completely recovered materials. The zinc bar, skylights, and walls of distressed white pressed-tin help ground the front and back rooms in historical detail, while the dark wood banquettes and inset birch panels add warmth. The group-ready hangout attracts a spectrum of patrons, though Williamsburg's young Greenpoint neighbors are scouting the territory.The Draw: The DJ's musical choices can be a bit haphazardly mixed--but the bar pays close attention to drinks, muddling ice and mint for a tall and citrusy mojito, artfully serving a duotone White Russian, and nailing down each detail for a fresh lime margarita. Chocolates from next door's Brooklyn Chocolate & Cocoa Co. accompany wines and armagnacs, and infuse cocktails as well. In back, the pool table sees some action and a dart board is ready and waiting.
