It seems Havana Central has gotten their hands on the email addresses of several Columbia student groups! Lately they’ve been spamming inboxes with invitations to celebrate New Years Eve with the good folks at the wholly unpopular M’side watering hole. The flyer advertises “strong Cuban drinks PLUS New Years party favors” (emphasis ours). But wait! […]

While you’re paying for drinks at 1020, or The Heights, or wherever, some people are actually being paid to go on dates at local Columbia bars. Lonely hearts, look to psych experiments for your next love. Who knew economics held the key to matters of the heart? Bonus points to anyone who can tell Bwog […]

The Night Cafe, like Mona, is closing. Bwog correspondent Kate Linthicum got there before the taps shut off forever.  Last night, as the prickly first winds of autumn blew across Morningside Heights, the loveliest dive bar in the neighborhood sang its swan song. Dozens of devoted patrons pressed into the warmth of the Night Café […]

But there’s still stuff out there (MOST OF ALL THE WEST END [a.k.a. “Havana Central”] WHERE YOU’RE COMING FOR THE BWOG PARTY TONIGHT) and we thought it was time to re-run Addison Anderson’s gargantuan bar crawl from our Orientation 2006 […]

So the Superbowl’s tonight. Whoohoo and etc. One good thing this does mean is that you are at liberty to eat and drink lots of food and beer to quell the nagging feeling that you should be in Butler. May we suggest: Browsing through the local establishments and ordering online. Lion’s Head is offering $7 pitchers of beer. Nacho’s is doing […]

Last night before classes start–what’s a first-year to do?  Venturing out of the neighborhood is expensive and spooky, and the West End is shut down for Cubanization.  It’s time for a guide to the nightlife in Morningside Heights, or as Bwog contributor Addison Anderson calls it, the M.H., or as he also calls it, The […]
