What Cillian Carroll doesn't like about The Hard Swallow (big Lee's):
Awful awful beer. It must have been completely stale or else home-brewed and advertised as premium brands. Made me feel completely unwell, I literally never experienced a really bad taste from a simple pint of beer but this place managed to do so. Avoid. Bad vibes in general, not welcoming environment. View all feedback. What Ivana likes about The Hard Swallow (big Lee's):
Awesome place, great people, very fun and relaxed environment. Sasha is so much fun, so interesting to talk to, bunch of fun and easy going, just amazing lady! Great dive bar, highly recommend! View all feedback.

My favorite East Village dive bar! Plus, live local music every Tuesday night!

Cool, metal rocker vibe, good people, but nothing for us craft beer drinkers.
