Guide Review - Iggy's
If you're looking to avoid the typically fratish Upper East Side bar scene, and a dive is more your speed, look no further than Iggy's. Friendly bartenders, Karaoke most nights, affordable drinks and even a friendly cat (his name is Jax) make this a great place to have a couple drinks (or a couple too many). They've got a great jukebox, offering tunes from Johnny Cash to hits from Grease, and have live music in addition to Karaoke. They seem to have gotten it right with their tagline, Iggy's IS "A Kick-Ass Bar."
