Named after the landlords, who operated a neighborhood newstand/convenience store here for decades. Now, in homage to drummer Gene Krupa, a cool bar and small-plate restaurant, sometimes with live music. Nice back garden.

Historic, (est.1933) old-style "workingman's" bar, diagonally across the street from the Double Windsor and diametrically opposite the DW in all other ways. Stood in for the Cedar Tavern in the Jackson Pollock biopic.
