Lonely Planet review

You may not have to be buzzed into the bathrooms for security reasons anymore, but this Polish-diner-turned-bar, right on Tompkins Sq Park, is classic East Village scruff. The decor has never been updated (witness the gaggy red, bumpy ceiling), but liquor was added into the mix a few years ago, and the grungy-fun clientele couldn't have been happier.

And after your $4 cocktail and plate of rib-sticking pierogi, you'll be right there with them.
