After the Belle & Sebastian show at Battery Park on Tuesday we stumbled, sunburnt and parched to the South Street Seaport. Near the sleek Bin No. 220 on Front Street, Jeremy's Ale House, or Safe House, as one banner reads, will never be mistaken for a wine bar. Or even a bar with wine glasses.
Drinking from plastic or styrofoam makes more sense when you are dragging your plastic chair over parking lines while indoors. Also, the overflowing quarts, mostly $7 (the exceptions being Coors, $4.50, Bass, Stella and Hoegarden, $8) make much more sense in the semi-cooled suburban-sized cups. The food is greasy spoon/clam shack -- we liked the fish and chips ($7) with fat chunks of well-fried fish. The mozzarella sticks ($4) and calamari ($8) were less impressive though this isn't the place at which you'd expect to be bowled over. Jeremy's isn't going to change your opinion of pints (or quarts), but it is fun, cheap and welcoming. And we've never heard police officers join in with our sunburned, somewhat fey group to sing happy birthday to a stranger anywhere else.

"Drinking from plastic or styrofoam"
That's horrible. They should be ashamed.
Jeremy's Ale House is wonderfully accomidating! They let us have both a big Halloween bash and New Years Eve Tacky Formal party there and even threw in free food.
they were better at their former location.
and Mike, you're a douchebag.
the styrofoam cups are conviently portable. i use by two pints then head over to the south street seaport shows.
jeremy's is hands down the best bar down here. and it's made even better since ulysses is such a great retard magnet.
