Attendees: Ben, Jim
Price: $7.50 Monteith's Golden Lager (schooner)
Location: 80 Smith St Collingwood, near Gertrude St
Ambience/vibe/character: Underground cruisy bar, easy to walk right past without noticing
Attitude of patrons: Broad range, easygoing. Jim feels welcome and not out of place
Hotness of patrons: Very low key, many more blokes than girls.
Beer garden/outdoor: On-street tables, basement room/bandroom
Decor: Antiquated/homely/chilled. Could be your loungeroom.
Selection: Limited but excellent
Obscurity: Hidden in plain sight.
Specials: $10 cocktails wed-fri 5-7pm, sun 5-7pm $10 jugs. Wednesday night comedy
Service: Fast and friendly (though they weren't exactly busy!)
Hotness of staff: Very cute and chatty
Field notes: Wednesday crowd comes and goes for the downstairs comedy. great on-street seating on Smith St. Extra marks for the cave-like basement. Live music drifts across from others venues, has a good nightlife ambience.
Overall score: 67
A very pleasant evening, needs a couple more patrons midweek to get a good vibe going. Potentially a great spot for an intimate setting on the weekend
