BarFly's Review of Sammy's Daniel Bar

Sammy's Daniel opened with little fanfare, little promotion, and turned into one hell of a little gem. Known for it's total obscurity, rubbing elbows with the cities coolest scenesters is all but guaranteed. The soft flickering romantic candlelight (no lights, no credit card machines, no phone, old school cash register) makes even the most haggard looking BarFly appear reasonably attractive. Not that you'll need the candlelight, Maker's Mark is served in pint glasses, which provides sufficient lubrication and confidence.

It's Still in Business

What a pain in the ass this place is to find, but the frustrating quest is totally worth it. You gotta earn those pints of makers.

Wha?!

So is this place still in business? If so, where is it? Is the google map on this page a decoy? Is it in NW OR NE? The suspense is killing me! I must have answers!!

smooth move, ex-lax

Way to go, buddydrunk. If you point out the hotspots for all the A-lists in town, they're just gonna start partying at their mansions. Don't blow it for the rest of us rubber-neckers, hot-shot!

Makers Heaven

With a few Makers, a few Cape Cods mixed with a few sessions of Buck Hunter, make-out and black-eye how could you go wrong? Or was that...the other bar?

I'll give 'er another chance . . .

Yeah, OK, it's pretty cool, but I'm not sure it's up to the hype (or the trouble to find it!). I mean really . . . PINTS of whiskey?!? The ice melts before you can even drink the thing. And plus, the girl that does trivia there TOTALLY copy-catted me! But whatevs . . . I'll give it another chance.

The Candy

All I can say is...my gawd. Usual innattentive hipsta bitch bartender's attitude is totally excused by the incredible size of these drinks. H-o-l-y shit.

hidden gem

Jewel in the rough, what the fuck! How come I never knew of this place? Great drinks, sandwiches with ham, dancin around! It's cool and I'm pretty sure that the bartender with the polar bear tat on her arm was winking at me> does it get any better?

Arrogant service good drinks

I went here Friday night. Hard to find location. The ambiance is crazy. The hipster bartender was hung up on talking about Moisture's Choice. Can't go wrong with the drink sizes.
