This tavern has tons of  old school character, extremely reasonable prices including daily specials, and best of all, an unpretentious, friendly and  good looking multi-dimentional and eclectic crowd that makes people love this place the first time they step foot inside this historic Hillside location.
Review Source:SooOOo I went to Arts for the first time a while back after meeting an old friend at another bar and had a great time. Â
The low down is that it's kind of a metal/punk bar depending on the crowd, but isn't cliche or trendy. Â I didn't get the sense that the regulars were conceded, like a lot of bars. Â The atmosphere was just friendly. Â
They have good specials, good beer on tap for you hop-heads, and a full bar otherwise.  The bartender was Andy,  I knew him way back when he roller-bladed  and I skateboard(still). Cool dude, he will hook you up with some fat drinks.
