Blonde female bartender was super rude. I walked in to meet some friends and she was short with me immediately. When I placed my cash on the bar to pay she picked it up, threw it around to see how much I put down, and then said “no one from your little group over there has tipped.” Her tone was very snippy and unprofessional. This was untrue as one of our friends tipped for the group. Instead of staying there for multiple drinks we decided to leave because of her attitude. She also made the worst drink I’ve ever had and it’s only 2 ingredients. It’s also cash only and the drinks are the same price as every other bar in nyc.
Fish Bar, love it! What a find! Great vibe, laid back, super friendly, a great neighborhood spot. Dion was welcoming and makes great drinks. The fish decor is awesome. Very cool East Village bar!!!
Saturday nights are a great night. Tell Dion Dre sent ya 🤙💥🦈
Awesome dive to grab a drink. Heat would make it better but the heats in the booze!
Great place to meet up with people and have drinks, staff is great there and they give you the feeling of being part of the place even if it’s your first time there. Good music drinks are good and they aren’t pricey. The whole look/feel of the place is pretty amazing. Bartenders are amazing and really make you feel comfortable being there even with a bunch of strangers. I’ve met really good people there. The whole vibe there is amazing. Definitely recommend this place to anyone that wants to go mingle with locals. I want to do my quinceñera there
Cheap drinks and very interesting decor. I personally call this bar the "money ceiling bar". Service from the bartender was fast and mixed drinks were strong. Would definitely come back here for a low key night.
Great low key bar!! Music is great and the bartenders are awesome**!! Good deals n heavy pours!! What more could u want....SATURDAY N FRIDAY NIGHTS ROCK!!
An essential East Village dive with cool bartenders. Long live Fish!
