Details on Our Inauguration Day Party Tuesday, January 20.

As many of you know, we'll be opening at 11 am on Tuesday, January 20 to show Barack Hussein Obama's inauguration on our two big projection screens. We'll have inaugural decorations (bunting!) and a potluck of various food items for people to graze on. Drink-wise, we'll have fresh-made pint-size Bloody Marys for $7, $3 pints of a couple different varieties of microbrew all day/night (since it is a Tuesday), and our usual $1 off happy hour from the time we open until 8 pm. In other words, we're going to inaugurate the crap out of this place. See you next week.

Comedy is back on February 4!

Join us at Pacific Standard in Park Slope for a pleasant evening of comedy in a book-lined and couch-filled room.

The BCS National Championship and the Super Bowl.

This Thursday, January 8, we'll have the national championship game at 8:15 pm. On Super Bowl Sunday, February 1, we'll have the big thingy-thing at 6 pm. You should not only come to enjoy these epic football events on our massive projection screen televisions, but also because we'll pour pitchers of many of our excellent microbrews at a discount. Both events are free, so no cover charge or reservations are needed, but you should, as always, come early to get the best seats.
