Barrow’s Pub

Part of the charm of a dingy dive bar is its indigenous wildlife, the regulars who give the place its soul. In addition to the good old boys loitering at the bar, this West Village relic attracts some FedEx employees from the company’s nearby offices and a few young professionals who throw back Buds and play pool. Tournaments can be serious business with this crowd; order up a Jameson and watch a motley crew run the table. Think of it as an urban Discovery Channel.
