Avenue (in the old Lucky Mojo space).\u00a0 One block south and one block west of the Vernon-Jackson 7 train stop (which is just one stop east of the Grand Central Terminal), Alewife offers 28 quality tap beers and another three dozen or so bottled beers.\u00a0 The spot is bi-level.\u00a0 Opposite the main bar area on the first floor are 6-7 high-top tables that fit 4-6 patrons.\u00a0 A long, non-hightop communal table resides toward the back of the lower level.<\/p>\n<p>Upstairs is a small lounge area and some more tables for parties of 4-6 patrons.\u00a0 There&#8217;s also a small outdoor patio upstairs (that was not open during our visit).\u00a0 The food menu, currently experiencing some upgrades, consisted of mostly pizza and burgers, along with a few appetizers.\u00a0 If there were more places like it nearby, Alewife would certainly be the anchor spot for the Long Island City craft-beer NYC bar crawl.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_861\" style=\"width: 310px\"
