Commonwealth — Restaurant in New York

I love this bar. I am frequent customer, but when I am served flat, stale beer and am ignored when bringing it up, I feel obliged to write a review. I love pale ales—they’re my favorite beer. So when I tasted the blood orange pale ale, I was surprised it was flat and stale. I even had my entire party taste it because I wanted to be sure it was not just my preference. They all agreed it was a stale beer. I also want to be clear that never in my life have I ever considered sending back a beer. I have had beers that weren’t what I was expecting, and that’s okay, but this was so unpleasant I wanted to inform the bar that something may be off with the keg. I told all three bartenders working, only to be met with “that’s how it always tastes” and a suck-it-up shrug. While I know it was busy since it was pride, as a queer woman, I felt so disrespected and ignored, I left the bar in tears. I know what a pale ale tastes like. It’s not my first rodeo.

He says to her mad aggressive… “what are you staring at!” Hello… you’re a bartender, we’re looking at you to take our order. We left after that. Mad RUDE and on drugs. Neiher male or female bartender could comprehend. Embarrassing! Would never recommend to anyone. You should ne...

Came in on a Saturday night and it was great!! Great ambience, not too crowded but still enough people to feel comfortable, and they have pinball machines in the back that actually are fun to play! (As opposed to being rigged to make you lost, which a lot of machines are.)

Not drinking right now and the bartender made me a super tasty mocktail (a strawberry one, since they had strawberry margaritas on the menu). 🍸There were some great cocktails on the menu and plan to have one sometime down the line. Also saw some unusual craft beers here too - like sours which are rare in bars. I was impressed with the drinks they offered!

Will absolutely be back! Really loved this place. And the bartenders were...
