The Outside Beer Bar at Grand Central Station
I really want to thank Dave who emailed me and suggested I go to the Beer Bar Garden outside of Grand Central Station. He paid for the drinks, we had a nice conversation, but I’m late for my plane to go to Cleveland to meet Michael Heaton, The Minister Of Culture. So here’s the photos! Sorry about the quickity-blickity blog today, but there will be two big ones coming up from Cleveland! Check back tomorrow and the next day!
Jesus, it's packed in here!
It's like an after-work slice of hell!
Open table!
Here's a picture of my feet as I wait for Dave.
Dave shows up, but it turns out he wants his picture obscured. I think he's wanted by the law, but I'll never tell!
Dave and I at our table.
Photo by Dave, this place is packed! I said that already, I gotta get to Cleveland.
Here's video of the joint. Goodnight everybody!
Review
Doing this website has been a magical experience. Dave lives about three blocks from me and he and his friends follow the website where they work. Dave you are welcome to join me anytime along the crawl, thanks for meeting me, this place was great, they have booze and food, now I have to catch a plane to Cleveland. HELLO CLEVELAND!
Beer Bar Garden
Vanerbuilt and 45th St.
I don’t know the phone number and I have to catch a plane, call 411.

HELLO CLEVELAND! GO BROWNS!!
This place looks awful......ly packed. Although now that you can't drink in the subways anymore (thanks for nothing, Giuliani you fucker!), I'll bet it's a nice booze break for all those commuters.
Side note: Next time any of yous are traveling through Grand Central and have a little time (and a lot of money) to spare, you should check out the Campbell Apartment. Not the best bar in the world, but a little slice of New York history that's worth checking out.
Good luck in Cleveland.....see you soon....
and i dont like this bar.. glad you had good company though... all them white shirts made me feel like i was at a fucking mormon temple. relapsed mormons with booze. yuck...
Hey "Bar Crawl Man"
I think this write up makes for a missed night! You Have to START OVER!
All in Favor? Opposed?
Just think your first 95 nights were a 'Warm-Up'
I'm not starting over, Twoods! I'm in Cleveland now! HELLO CLEVELAND! More tomorrow!
can't wait to read about your cleveland exploits!
Nope. You're intact.
The fucking insanity of the place and crowd would have been enough penance anyhow.
Plus the name BEER BAR says it all.
Nicest thing about it IS the sign.
See you in Chitown Daddio.
Hey "Bar Crawl Man" it's all for fun! Enjoy Cleveland! You deserve a "Beer-Break!
From your description Marty, being in the Beer Bar sounds like you starred in an episode of 'The Office' against your will...in sensurround no less.
Cleveland ROCKS. At least Drew Carey thinks so.
too crowded, too many suits....made me have flashbacks to when was in marketing & had to wear a suit, naa that joint sucked.....& you actually got thru airport security?? thought the sniffer dogs would have got for boot-leggin' for sure??...... have fun Marty..
Hahaha, love the "call 411." Have fun in Cleveland!
Make sure you check out the Winking Lizard while in Cleveland!
I'll try and get there today!
WOW!!! At least, planes fly there !! hahaha
All airport closed in France!! and europe! haha But I got the solution : I'm sure with a "H1N1 protection mask" planes can go through the volcan's dust without to cough !!
