Un bar auténtico, de los que lamentablemente ya quedan pocos. Excelente onda de la gente que atiende, buenos precios de la cerveza, pizza caserita y barata, buena música y a veces tocan banditas que suelen sonar bien. En verano con mesas en la vereda se pone mucho más ameno aún.

Fui con mi pareja hace unos días, nos gustó mucho. La atención fue muy buena y nos brindaron una botellita de alcohol en gel apenas nos sentamos (muy bueno). La comida muy rica, precios accesibles. Y las camareras muy copadas. El único punto a mejorar es el baño. Lo que nos sorprendió es que nos hayan dado un vale para un trago. Super recomendado. Volveremos pronto
