My hubby and I were looking for a place with good drinks and decided to try this place. We parked…read moreand almost passed by the place because its like a small little bar with very little signage. It was before 6pm so we were able to find a seat. I think they have seats for only 25 people so prepare to stand when it gets busy. Our bartender was Edward and he was really nice. I ordered a Tiramisu Martini and then a Porn Star Martini. They were both good, but I preferred the Porn Star one. We also ordered a Smash Burger, which was actually from Holt's, connected to this bar. That burger was tasty - brioche bun & onions = yum. The chips it came with were crunchy. The Bacon popcorn was good but way too salty for me. Im glad we found this little bar and plan on coming back in the future.

Now that you know I'll probably never be able to find a parking spot again. :) This is a quaint neighborhood bar where the prices can't be beat! Mary is a lovely lady and runs a tight ship when it comes to making sure her bar is a welcoming place where people can mingle without a crap-load of drama. Act up and you're out the door. Most of us are up there in years and appreciate we have a place to tip a few without having to scream over rap or metal music but instead can dance a few to our favorite oldies. Come by and say hi to Mary, Cheryl and Lucy who are the best at keeping 'em coming and keeping a smile on your face.

Checked out this neighborhood bar one recent afternoon. Downey's Har-Hig is an easy to miss place…read more It happens to be one of those bars that's also a takeout liquor store. Good prices on lots of booze. This also happens to be one of the few bars and places close by to get liquor. A hole in the wall kind of place, literally almost. It's located in the middle of a crappy strip mall. The inside is pretty dark, and looks worn out from years of abuse by regulars. Cheap drinks. It's about $6 for a basic cocktail of whiskey and whatever. Has a few reach in coolers. These have cans and cases of beer, but also has some of the hard stuff. Better place than it looks. It's at the corner of Harlem and Higgins, which is how it gets its name. There's no other close by liquor stores, so people come here to stay awhile, or they get it to go and get drunk wherever.
