Laura Vitaro: Awesome German Beer Hall. Great atmosphere. They have maßes (liters) and delicious grilled cheeses. My only complaint: where the pretzels at?
Geoffroy Bablon: The bacon cheddar blue is one of the best grilled cheeses I've ever had. Get it with some chips, they've got a slight spice kick.
Kelsey Lee: This former garage is now an enormous beer hall, filled with groups of friends, a great variety of beer (obviously), and amazing grilled cheese choices!

Pix Canolli: The grilled cheese rocks!
Mike Nickerson: Low-key & divey gay bar in the heart of west village. Strong drinks and laidback, casual vibe.
Esquire: Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. Sure, it's a gay bar, but this dingy old survivor is more masculine than 90 percent of the straight bars in America.

TAMMY GIA: Flat bread pizza and grilled cheese and tomato soup!!!! Soooo good on a cold night!
