Arts and Crafts Beer Parlor – Soha

I don’t drink but the food is 5*. Its not an expansive menu but the food is done right and the atmosphere is not at all «college-​y». Its a grown up bar for people who don’t want to be surrounded by undergrads looking for cheap shots and lax carding policies. I will go regularly for the food, and if people want to grab a drink, I am happy to suggest this place (and go) since it really is a gem and not like really any other bar in the surrounding 30 blocks.

A newly opened beer bar across the law school! Everytime I passed by this semi-​underground bar it was packed, so I called my friend to try it out. This place was spacious with lots of tables and bar seats. Service was friendly and attentive. The $ 5 beer our server recommended tasted great. I think they have about 24 craft beer on tap. We also ordered some bar food, which were above the average.
Meatball boat came out with two meatballs with marinara sauce and bread. Meatballs were fresh and juicy. Bread was toasted to the point. Sauce was good too.
Smartdog veggie dog was a veggie hotdog with sauerkraut, hummus and ketchup. We chose pretzel bread which was wonderful. I would love to just get the soft pretzel again.
There were not many good choices around Columbia but this place is great. I love the atmosphere here as well, neither too dark nor noisy, very relaxing.

A new place that just opened up by Columbia University. I had never been to the one more south, but this was pretty good. Great beer selection and resonably priced. They have a happy hour M-​F till 7 where certain beers on tap are $ 5. It was a great deal and a great atmosphere to hang out with a large group of friends. We didn’t try any food, but it all looked great what we saw of others. I would definately come back here again.

Cozy up in this woodsy, lodge-​style bar amongst the grad students and pints. Beautifully redone since taking over the Camilles space, they’ve got a unique, rotating beer selection including my fave Canadian beer. No liquor, be aware. More-​than-​acceptable $ 5 happy hour draft offerings. Great addition to the University hood.
