Quaint bar area and lots of outside a seating in a nice area. foods pretty good here and a large selection of lagers. Last visited on Kingsday 2024 so limited menu. Great music and atmosphere. Friendly staff ”
“ We came here for a nightcap and a small snack. It is such a nice little cozy spot, and was playing some good music as well. There's 5-6 seats at the bar and a few tables. The bartender was super nice and told us a little bit about the beers, and recommended the bitterballs for a snack. They were tasty and went well with the beers. We saw them bring some Nachos to another table and they looked amazing as well, wish we were a bit hungrier and we might have been able to order those. ”
“ Such a gem! There are so many places to eat and we stumbled upon Harlem Soul Food and how lucky we were. The food was perfect, the fries the best we’ve had. We had to come back a second time for the fries. The lentil soup was a hearty portion with fresh bread, the enchiladas had lots of homemade guacamole and salsa. And the staff!! They were so friendly and helpful. I couldn’t recommend this restaurant more. I never write reviews and I had to for this place ”
