LIC Bar and Dominie's had pretty cheesy (Hobokenish?) crowds when I went out last Friday, too. Does a guy gotta go to Brooklyn for a good, chill, bar experience with cool people and good music? I've begun hanging out at the Shannon Pot in protest. Jeez, I was excited about having another bar on my side of the neighborhood, but what’s the deal with this membership B.S.?

But who cares about people going back to Manhattan--the bigger deal is that for many people in LIC (except those right on the water or down by WTB) it's pretty darn close and an easy stroll. A welcome addition. Taxis cruise there constantly.

Granted, you'd have to find drivers starting a morning shift early, or wrapping up a night shift who would take the extra fare. Manhattanites can walk 200 yards to Queens Plaza for cabs going back in over the Queensboro Bridge. There is a taxi garage directly across the street from there.
