Super friendly, low key neighborhood bar. Crowd was decent, drinks fairly priced, convenient location. Have gone a few times now and found it pretty consistently a good time.

Hidden gem neighborhood spot for locals. No frills bar, 4 booth-style seating, pay per play pool table, good bathroom, no food (unless chips count). In a neighborhood where a lot of the bars look sketchy from the outside, or seem to cater specific clientele, I am glad that this bar exists. 6 beers and they take credit cards.

I used to go to the ready Penny Inn all the time decades ago. I was 17 when I first started hanging out. I met my ex-husband there. I have never been much of a drinker so I'd hang out, play pool and drink diet soda. I just checked to see if the place still existed. I remember Pat, who spoke with an English accent and Noel the bartender. It's nice to see the bar still exists.

Friendly bartenders and owner, pool table, darts, and TouchTunes jukebox. Many locals' bar of choice in the neighborhood. Food not served here, but you can bring in outside food.

This is one of the best bars in Queens. Great Guinness pour, which is hard to find. The bartender Helen is both excellent at her job and lovely to chat with. In a very busy part of a busy neighborhood, this place is a comforting retreat.

A great, cozy neighborhood bar. No frills, no food but they let you take in outside food and there's no shortage of options nearby. Usually a mix of folks of varied ages. I've gone in several times over the years and there are always nice staff working behind the bar. A handy spot to stop in for a pint when you get off the train at Roosevelt Ave and nature calls

Love this place. Definitely my "local haunt." the bartenders are so friendly and remember your name. Nothing exciting about the drink selection but that's not why you go. It's to chill with your friends, have a drink and just hang out in a friendly and non-pretentious bar. And a game of darts or pool is never a bad thing either!
