Down the Hatch has been a classic village pub for over 20 years, with foosball, daily drink specials, and Atomic Wings.  Opened in 1998, Off the Wagon, has become a staple of the bar scene on MacDougal St.  3 Sheets Saloon is the newest of the three, opening in 2010 on W. 3rd St. The bi-level saloon is nestled between the other two and conveniently located near the W4th St. subway station (A,B,C,D).
They are offering a special package for village pub crawlers.  Sign up for a 3-bar pub crawl and get a drink deal between Off The Wagon, 3 Sheets Saloon and Down The Hatch — all are within a 5-minute walk of one another.  Call their party planners at 212-585-2371.
