Overview

The acts may be hit or miss but they rotate through quick, and it's one of the few joints giving local talent a shot. Add $4 drafts into the mix and you've got a hit.

New York Magazine

No more bands at this former rock dive, but otherwise the song remains the same: cheap drinks, cheap drinks.

The tongue-pierced stud at the mouth of St. Marks Place.

Experience at The Continental
My experience at The Continental 12/8/7 SUCKED!!! My girlfriend was attacked downstairs by a Santa impersonator that was in the downstairs room doing drugs (same floor as the bathrooms). Luckily her husband went to look for her and heard her yelling for help and yelling at the guy to get off of her! Who cares about cheap beer if you're in danger of getting raped, hurt or killed?
