Winners Bar is meant for winners! Its a great bar with a lot of locals and occationally some outsiders. I live in this neighborhood for years and I visit this bar very often. Bartenders are friendly and nice and provide good service. Drinks are strong and prices are reasonable. Love this place, good for friends gathering.
Review Source:This neighborhood scab smells of urine, day and night, and is consistently run amok with ghouls. Drunks passed out behind the trash collection, bizarre chinless men throwing garbage cans into the road and sitting on the curb, people staggering out and screaming. Walk on the other side of the street if you can avoid it, and especially don't go in for a drink. God only knows how you'll respond to the Lovecraftian horrors slapping their wet, fleshy tendrils against door with a gut full of cheap beer.
Review Source:it always doesnt seem to underestimate. When you see the bar from the outside it seems to be very small but when you make your way in it gets so much larger. Most of the people here are locals but that doesnt matter. When i first came here i thought it was going to be boring. This was my first bar trip ever. After drinking a few then we made our way to the only pool table there is and had a blast. I met this asian guy with dreadlocks and we played doubles. They were really great at 3am.
Review Source:Great for meeting or getting sloshed around underagers, apparently. Â The server Caitlin is great. Â But she will usually be accompanied by a chickentender who's to appeal to another demographic, but won't seem to be as thoughtfully hired as she won't be as good. Â One even forgot she charged me for a drink already, and tried to charge me twice (as if you don't handle your first drink expense after immediately getting served, this also means she forgot I already tipped her GENEROUSLY, plus she immediately reached for the high-shelf stuff for my drink without asking - what a nub!) Â What was bad was how she was a completely unprofessional mule about it - even her coworker had to tell her not to be such a month-rag. Â Also, doesn't cover the fact that this is the bar on my corner (way to alienate a potential regular) oh, and that I'm also a midtown bartender who appreciates service (and do better for myself than ripping off one 6 dollar drink. . . .) Â
Overall the incident clouds my judgement of winner's greatly, since its offensive and I know my managers would ream me out for handling this how she did, and for good reason. Â It's drunken newbie bartender antics that you can expect, but sure, the drinks are also cheap and very strong. Â Make it a dive, go for the trash, but get out before becoming part of the decor. Make sure the less-cool bartender remembers you already slipped money towards her mule-face.
I've been walking past this bar for almost 2 years. Finally this week my friends and I decided to check it out. The place is big inside, pool table, some video games, an awesome jukebox, and cheap I MEAN CHEAP DRINKS. We ordered 3 beers and a jack and coke only $17.50 tell me where you can find drinks this cheap. The decor inside is like a typical bar but they have really cute lamps on the walls and some of the tables have Asian theme on them. Another good thing is that the bartenders are actually awesome. They were taking shots right with us. The bathrooms are clean as well which is always a plus. The train is steps away from the bar. I mean the bar was somewhat empty but it's always a good time when you are with your friends. I highly recommend this place we have gone twice in one week.
