So I walked into BiNA dressed like a pirate.. (pirate pub crawl the same day; friend's birthday party that night) and nobody stopped me @ the door. Probably because a ""welcome to the jungle"" party was going on @ the same time so they were ready for anything..
I went to the bar and made friends immediately with some ladies who parted so I could get to the bald bartender dude who looked like Chiklis from The Shield. He didn't have a smile on his face but it was pretty busy so I tried to chat him up. He cracked one for me while I asked for an Amstel & a G&T for one of my new friends. Don't get beer here. It will take for freaking ever. The drinks are amazing though if you're willing to splurge and they did have some passed picky food that I never got around to but I was full from dinner anyway..
It was CRAZY how many people I knew there! I was wondering where everybody was hiding! Super swank, right off Downtown Crossing/Park near SCLA and Felt. Will totally make an appearance again soon! TY BiNA!
Pros: The crowd, the location, the suits :)
Cons: $$ but be ready.. and don't get beer
