Reynolds Street Bar & Grill

I have been here a couple of times in my stay in Alexandria. The service has been good. Tonight I came in and was asked by Cristey, "what I needed". I wanted and Jamison with a backer. Cristey said, ok. I was poured my request. And two minutes later because I did not drink it fast enought, Cristey poured out my drink in the well and told me, if I didn't like it, I couuld talk to the owner. I understand that everybody has bad nights. But all she could talk about was how her man was leaving for a year and how she could cope with it. The owner is an older Greek fellow that said he can't control what his bartenders do. Why would I pay 7 dollars for a shot I would not drink.

A neighborhood hangout, where you can spend an entire afternoon and evening watching football. It's not fancy, but it does not pretend to be fancy. You are here for friendly service, cheap beers, and much, much better food than your typical dive.  

Their beers come in massive 23 ounce glasses (though you can get a "little" beer, which would be a regular pint anywhere else, for a whopping three bucks), and they usually have a decent IPA or two on tap.  The massive beers are 4 dollars during happy hour and 5 the rest of the time.

They also have great Greek food here, including the Greek appetizer platter (gyro meat, pitas, olives, stuffed grape leaves, souvlaki, feta cubes, tzatziki sauce, and tomatoes). For vegetarians, there is a suprisingly large array of options, including a stuffed Mediterranean wrap.

All the bartenders here are great--they are all really sweet, friendly, attentive and helpful.

Great food, cheap beer, and a friendly staff.  It's a bit of a dive sports bar filled with a lot of regulars so if you're looking for a 5 star dining experience truck down to old town and pay 5 times the price.  Really good Greek food and their pizza is amazing.
