by Jessica C. on My favorite place in the Lower East Side if im in the mood for dancing. They play the best old school hip hop. Usually, a DJ will have three good songs in a row and then a bust... but ive noticed that at bOb, I am dancing for 50 minutes straight. Its like they took every one of my favorite songs and created a playlist of them... you'll also find yourself saying "yeaaaaaa!" when they play the next song (maybe thats just me, though :P) Ive never had a bad time here. Oh, and there's a $5 cover.
by Claire O. on Went here for Sunday brunch and really liked it... The outdoor area is lovely - you can almost imagine that you're not in a bustling metropolis. Loved the trees and tables and the decor was funky without trying too hard. Food was great too: I ordered the smoked salmon scramble which was yummy. It came with home fries, and I find oftentimes places struggle to get these right, but not here. The taste and texture were spot on and complimented eggs well (which is really all you can ask for home fries). My friend ordered fresh fruit and waffles which were also good: the waffles were a nice crunchy/soft texture and not overly sweet - which of course we then made up for by drenching them in syrup. Only downside was the service which could have been quicker, but hey, it's a Sunday, I would probably have complained if I'd felt rushed. Overall, definitely worth the trip down town, especially if the weather is nice!!
