    This is a college bar no doubt about it. As a result it also has great prices and parties hard. A great place if you're in the age group

    The odor of the plus is pungent. It burns the nostrils.... But in a good way.

    Always had a good time here, no matter how sticky the floor or smelly the bar. NOTE: definitely more enjoyable when drunk.

    Thursday hangout for AU students. During the week, mostly professionals. Did this on St. Pat's, and it was awesome. Great specials and contests.

    The singer on Thursday evenings seem to specialize in emo grunge. Depressing when you're drinking to say the least.

    I can't tell if the DJ on Saturdays is playing music or hosting a talk radio show.

    The DJ sucks!! It's like he plays songs from the video on YouTube and he plays every song until it ends... All 4 minutes of every song. Terrible! Clearly an amateur.

    Service here is horrible.. Maybe if the bartenders stopped dancing to the music and poured drinks they would actually make some decent money

    Definitely a college bar, but filled with GW peasants and randos from shit schools. Don't expect too much.
