Do not go here if you don’t want your money stolen by the bartender. I’ve been a loyal customer of DBL and Mickey Spillanes (same owner) since I moved to NYC 10 years ago. Always great hospitality, prices, and atmosphere. On Friday evening, November 7th, 2025, I went to DBL and bought two double vodka sodas and it came to $16 which I know was the total from my friend buying the first round. I gave the bartender a $20. He gave me the drinks, took the $4 in change out and put it in his tip bucket. I tried to get his attention to give me my change and he actively ignored me. It might be $4, but it’s still stealing. And the funny part is - I was prepared to tip him more than my change. Do not go here. I can only imagine what scam is being run by this person on credit cards. What a horrible disappointment after years and years of wonderful experiences. I’m so sad to not be able to go here ever again, but the trust is broken, and I’ll make sure to get the word out.

Terrible service. I came in because it was my first time in New York. I came in and the bartender was rude and said, "If you don't have anything else, leave." I told him, "I just got here, what's wrong with you?" Terrible service.

Bartender is terribly rude and slow. Cheap drinks but I rather pay more for better service.

Bouncer shut the door right as we pulled it and said they were closed. Once we walked away he let some other guy in. Don’t know if it was because we were non-white or had women in our group

We stopped by Bar 3.30pm on May 3rd and had a disappointing experience. We asked the bartender if they had frozen margaritas, and he responded in a very unfriendly manner, saying they didn’t have it. We still considered staying and asked if they had other drinks. His response? “You can go to the bar across the street.” When we asked if they had an IPA, he once again said no — still with the same dismissive attitude. Throughout the entire exchange, he was more interested in chatting with his friend at the bar than engaging with us. It was clear he didn’t want us there and made no effort to offer alternatives or be welcoming in any way. We were a group of three, polite and open, but left feeling unwelcome and uncomfortable.

Asked a few questions but didn’t know what to order. Bar tenders proceeded to ignore me and my friend and take everyone’s order who walked up, I made eye contact to tell him I was ready when he had a minute. I didn’t get to open my mouth before he snapped and said he was doing something. Super rude, place smells and and is dirty. Which makes sense it’s a dive bar but yeah service sucked.

Have been here multiple times and it is alwayssss unpleasant, impersonal service, & stuffy. Security was standing 20 feet away from the entrance and when I walked up to the door he yells at me from the street corner. Bar staff yelled at us for dancing and being loud. It’s 12am at a (pretty much empty) bar what do you expect.

the bald barman with glasses was so aggressive and confrontational when we got confused about tipping and instead of trying to listen to us to solve the issue his first response was threatening to kick us out of the bar (mind you we never even raised our tone or said anything rude we were just confused about how we had tipped since we’re not from the US). really bad vibes from him the bar was okay but we didn’t feel welcome at all
