Suzie Q, Hongdae. Great record collection and they'll play pretty much anything you ask for (on vinyl).

Bull & Barrel, Itaewon. Nobody goes in there so nice to have a free pool table, darts, decent beers.

If that's the one I think you're talking about, it's pretty good- You can get a glass of Remy Martin XO for like 15 bucks or something.

Possibly...It's behind McDonald's. They have cheap curry night on Thursdays too. 6000w for a nice lamb dish and naan

Woodstock - Sinchon. Only the original. Better than Nori Hanun Saram Dul.

Are you talking about the old Woodstock with all the graffiti on the walls and the gruff hippy owner? Yeah, that place is pretty cool. Great place to go for classic rock.

My favourite bar used to be Craftworks. But now it is so busy and the smoking area has been halved. Best beer though.

Now my favourite bar is Cheep Shots in Bupyeong.

Yep- Mr. Moon. Great guy, great bar. I think the place has been around since the early 90's.

Gonna second Bull and Barrel just to help get their name out there. I always forget it's there but it's a good solid bar, deserves some upvotes or something along those lines.

Haven't been to Craftworks in ages, place is always packed, food is so-so and overpriced along with lousy service.

I spend more time at Phillies, decent food, decent beer and not mobbed most of the time

Agree with the others about the food at Craftworks. Went there twice. First time the food was average, but expensive for the quality. Second time it was hideous. Couldn't even finish it. Ended up going home and getting Dominos delivered which was 100 times better.
