This place is a Valley Stream staple, I've been coming here for years.
The bar is towards the front, and the restaurant in further back. The staff is very friendly, and they are always quick to seat you, refill your drinks, etc. The food is always great. They have a wide selection of different burgers and sandwiches, and they also have a large selection of entrees. Wednesday is 2-for-1 burger day, which I feel is a steal, especially for the size of the burgers. The lunch specials are also a steal. The TVs are HD, and there's a lot of them. It's a perfect place to watch the game with your friends or family. The bar seems to have a good selection of beers and alcohol. The atmosphere of the place is very cozy, and the place has very nice decor. I definitely recommend this place for a dinner with your family, or just hanging out with your friends.
I love local bars, and having heard so much about this place being Valley Stream's go-to bar, I had to check it out. It's also really convenient that it's down the block from Sip This, the coffee shop on Rockaway.
They seem to have specials every single day of the week. My friends took notice very quickly of the deal they have going on Mondays for wings and beer. Seemed like a good deal if you're a wing lover!
While the drink deals aren't quite as clear (it simply says that drinks are "discounted"), I didn't spend more than $10 for a solid few rounds of beer. Unfortunately, they don't have a very varied selection of draft beers.
On the day I went there, they only had Guinness, Harp, Smithwick's, Blue Moon, Coors Light. All very typical beers -- nothing special. However, being that it's mostly an older crowd with a lot of regulars, I'm sure that selection appeals to them!
They also have a cute little fireplace in the middle of the establishment, which added a nice touch. Definitely a very welcoming decor. I'd come here again!
Loved this place!!!!now this a five stars on a bar/pub rating. Ordering for take our has been great, I didn't have any service issues with this place at all......I have ordered repeatedly, and plan on continuing to be a regular customer, Â
The burgers are spot on! Â Have had the chicken tidbits in a fried version with mozzarella. Â Yum! Â I definitely recommend it!
Sadly, this is like the only somewhat classy, decent bar Valley Stream has to offer. Â It's in the heart of the "business district" on Rockaway Ave. Â It's depressing, because it's really not that great. Â It doesn't hold a candle to McQuade's, which is exactly the kind of place Rockaway Ave. needs. Â I personally feel that they are way too expensive for the kind of food the typical bar food they serve, the service is always slow and it's just average. Â I've gone here for lunch a few times and have almost always been late going back to work. Â On a positive note, they have Blue Moon on tap. Â I respect the fact that it's a VS staple and that lots of old timers still come here, which is cool. Â If they just had better service and lowered their prices, I might come here more often than once a year.
Review Source:Great little pub.
Just had lunch here and to be honest, it was pretty damn good.
It is set up kind of like a sports bar / kind of like a neighborhood pub. Â The foods are all excellent and the waitress was great- she was johnny-on-the-spot with the drink refills etc.
The place was doing a decent lunch time crowd and I will definitely go back at night.
