    Casey is the best bar tender!!!Not only did be make sure we loved our drinks, prices were reasonable, and service was outstanding (there was a belligerent guest, who he took care of without fuss to the vibe).Overall, chill and nice bar w darts and decent drinks.

    A lovely small bar with an equally small but cute patio in the back. They also have 2 dart boards and big buck hunter. The drinks arent fancy but the beer is cold and the bartenders nice. - No Food

    Nice Irish bartender. Great conversationalist.. Closes way too early on Friday Saturdays though. Walked in at midnight and was told last call will be soon.. And the place was still half full.

    I went to the Gaf mainly for their trivia night on Wednesday. It was a fun experience.

  • Review 10 (2022-07-10 - Rating: 4)

    Drinks were good, bartenders nice, and there were games to play! But no air conditioning, which got to be uncomfortable after a while

  • Review 11 (2022-12-30 - Rating: 5)

    Cozy bar to hang out with locals and bartenders are great. Also a good spot to watch the games with lots of Tvs, jukebox and games for when the party begins.

    Exactly what you want a neighbourhood joint to be. We had no food but the gin martini was aces.

  • Review 26 (2022-06-09 - Rating: 5)

    Fantastic music selection and drink selection! Upbeat, relatively obscure music normally ignored. Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Glass Animals and Big Wild. The vibe was casual and welcoming. The selection of light-drinks was especially choice. Perfect for the warmer weather: High-Noon & Michelob Ultra.
