This place is like solitary confinement for bad drinkers. There's only one window that's filled with a neon beer sign (not that the view on Taraval is especially inspiring) and the walls are bare brick. Don't come here if you want to meet dynamic and interesting people or even if you want to hold an intelligent conversation but there's a pool table and Ms. Pac Man (the only video game that can be played while simultaneously drinking. I'm convinced that the tabletop version was inspired by an alcoholic. Bravo old man, bravo.) I used to live a few blocks away and came here for my birthday one year not because it's a destination but only because we were half drunk already. After a few games of Ms. Pac Man I was ready to move on to pool and was matched up with an older woman wearing a pool glove. I was thinking to myself, "Man, this chick is serious. I'm gonna get my ass handed to me." Sure enough she started cleaning up on me and before I knew it I was one ball away from being sent back to Ms. Pac Man. In a moment of drunken clarity I cleared the table and left the one gloved woman with a look of disbelief and contempt. We both knew that that luck and alcohol had played a major role in this stunning upset but I didn't care, it was MY birthday. I was feeling so good about myself I proceeded to make a really inappropriate advance on my friend. We're still friends and she's never brought it up again (thank god) but I still cringe at the memory of it. In summary, Grandma's is the diviest. I'll always know it as the site of great glory and great shame. Thanks Grandma.

I dig clubs, but this place doesn't really do it for me. It takes forever to get to the bar and the bartenders always look distracted by something else. They have enough going on that you can find some kind of music that you like, but it's just too much. However, they do have awesome rock shows now that Bowery bought into them since they weren't doing well and sometimes they have really cool events, but i'm really selective about when I bother to head over there.
