   Galaxy hut is located in a very frat-based community area full of young, hip college kids who are often socially conscious and appreciative of vegan cuisine and its health and environmental benefits.

   Food here is excellent, especially for such a small little dive bar. The vegan steak and cheese, tater tots, and sausage all taste amazing and all the meat substitutes are actually very flavorful and taste like / have the texture of, real meat.

   Service in this loud bar is done at the bar itself where there is an amazing selection of craft beers (hipster-ness flows through this place) and all at reasonable prices. Otherwise, there is no table service beyond the actual delivery of entrées, which can be annoying as there is a line to request or get anything here so prepare yourself.

   Décor is expectedly odd with modern-art murals of wacky characters on the walls, a neat outdoor alley converted into a seating area where smoking is allowed and guests enjoy a view of other bars and happenings on this crowded street.

   Parking is horrendous but what'd you expect from this area? It's highly urban so intend on all arriving in one vehicle and paying for parking. Otherwise, enjoy Galaxy Hut, it's certainly an experience

LOVE the food here! I've been vegan for five years, and sometimes (especially when drinking) you just want to eat greasy food! I love being somewhere that actually has a number of options for veg-eaters. At 95% of bars as a vegan you're usually just drinking your dinner. Also, if you're into meat, they offer meat-based hotdogs and bacon (which the bf always gets).

Everything I've had on the menu is delicious, and the tots are amazing. I'm moving out of Courthouse soon and I'm so sad this place won't be walking distance anymore--but I'm sure I'll be making special trips (especially for vegan philly cheesesteak!)

What an awesome Dive Bar! Love the décor and the dive feel at this place! They've got a pacman (one side works), pinball machine (doesnt work), and an android game?(doesnt work). lol ghetto. But it makes an awesome entertaining table!  That's about the extent of the credibility of my review.

I'm not very knowledgeable about beer so it's hard to speak on behalf of it but they do have a wide selection to choose from, I was able to use my "I just want a light, refreshing, crisp, belgian beer" phrase and was good to go. That's what I got!

I've heard and seen that their infamous tator tots are a must try but will have to do this the second time around. I missed out on this unfortunately and I absolutely LOVE tator tots!!
