Do they serve any food if so how is it, atmosphere etc. TIA. Thu Oct 07 12:02:15 -0700 2004 0 Chas 1 1296796 Nice, giant space. Beautiful designer wallpaper, old oak bar and tile floors. No food. Order the Bramble, seems to be their best drink. I've been some nights and heard some outstanding DJs. Other nights, they do comedy, film nights, etc. A great space for a party, no doubt, but maybe not a regular haunt. At the end of the day, its just another bar, but one of my top five W'berg faves. (Pete's Candy Store, Matchless, Enid's, and the Ale House are all goodies) Fri Oct 08 13:11:33 -0700 2004 1296749 0 Matt 2 1296801 Thanks Matt for the info.

But the only food I've had there over several visits has been the the blackberry in my bramble, delish. Really, the glittery throngs of young folk that congregate at RO do not strike me as much of an eating crowd, if you gather. When and if you're hungering you can usually get an _okay_ grilled sandwich at Pete's Candy nearby. And I also like the avocado reuben at the spotty Union Picnic, in the same stretch of North Williamsburg. Enid's also serves food but I don't know much about it.
