Popped in here on Halloweekend. Good dive bar, loved the vibe. The drinks were strong, good for the price.

The bartenders are authentic and very interested in their products and connecting the customer to the perfect cocktail!

Looking for a dive bar with a chill environment? You've come to the right place! Popped in on a Saturday night after spending the day with friends and was able to get a table around 9pm without trouble! There is no table service and is the total epitome of a dive bar so you'll just have to order your drinks at the bar and pick it up after. Since I was sick, I got a Hot Toddy while my friends got their common drinks. Had to wait a bit for my drink and they do not have bar food.. however, they do welcome you to bring in your own food!

Love the ambience a nice little cozy spot to hang around with friends. I've heard their coffee is pretty good but haven't tried it yet. Their drinks are good tho, friendly service. Overall a nice place to visit on a warm evening with your friend.

Post punk dive bar still representing with great drinks, good music wi some deep cuts that you might not think of and a wonderful bartender. If you want frills, head towards midtown! I'm staying here!!!

Friend brought me here for some drinks recently. Drinks were your typical dive bar things, reasonably priced for lower Manhattan. I like that there are booths and tables toward the back, it's definitely a cozy feel. The music was a little too loud at times, but not all the time (?). Service was fast and friendly. I'll probably be back on a rainy night out

One of the best dive bars I've been to. New York is filled with great dive bars but this one is one of the best. Popped in for a drink in between shovelling food into my face hole and loved it. The bartender was lovely and had a lot of great advice of where to get great eats in the neighbourhood. Some dude was doing deliveries and sat down at the bar. He asked for a "Jack and Coke, no ice, no fruit, no straw". It was perfectly New York in its direct simplicity and I enjoyed watching him down a couple of them. Tons of character from his accent to his stainless steel rings. This guy alone made my day. Will definitely come back to enjoy the nightlife.

Great music and good vibes at this divey spot. I wanted to read a book at The Library (because lol) but but ended up just chatting with some strangers at the bar and had the best time. Thank you Bridget the bartender for making an out of town-er feel at home. *$20 minimum for cards if that matters to you

It's been so long since the last time I've been to the library that I'm pretty sure I remember when drinks here were $3-4 and not around $8. Lol. But the magic of The Library is that the drinks are still two for ones. And that deal goes on until 8pm. So your drink is back to being $4 essentially (kind of). I appreciate that to keep track of your buy back that they give you plastic dinosaurs. It's still an utter dive. But they now have some canned seltzer cocktails in addition to a pretty good rotation of tap beers. There's a movie projection screen in the back room which I'm struggling at remembering if that was always there. It's a classic dive in the east village that will really never be all too bad.
