Continental Is horrible – This place is a dump to begin with . I ve been there about 5 times with my buddies from work. I never really liked this place. The bouncers have a god complex. I had one incident when this Idiot of a bouncer decided to pull me off the line telling me that "they are only accepting regulars" i was nicely dressed too. So I cussed his A** out telling this is not a club but a rinky dink bar too. I made him look stupid infront of the other bouncers. He told me well I just started this month, So how the he... read more

only if you're desperate – I would like to inform you that I was treated with so much disrespect at your venue. I walked out of the bar to see my friends who were an interracial couple, yet the bouncer refused them entry for no other reason than "they're not the usual crowd." Now I know for a fact that the bar has an even mix of cultures and ethnicities, so this should NOT have been a problem. When I asked why he refused them entry, he just gave me the same answer, and when I asked him why that has any relevence, he told me ... read more

Worst bar I've ever been. – The bartender and the security guy at door are completely rude. They work like they're doing you a favor. If you don't want to be treated as cr&p stay away from this place.

ASSAULT & BATTERY...I saw the whole thing happen – In response to the review below...I was standing outside of McDonalds last night and saw this whole thing happen. The bouncer was at least 400 pounds and way over 6' tall. The bouncer had walked well past the bar to follow her and that's when I saw him push her down the street. She literally was thrown and landed on her face. I couldn't believe what I was witnessing...and quickly helped her up as her friends were calling the police. She had deep cuts on both her hands and kn... read more

Worst Bar in NYC – This place is ridiculous! There was NOT just one bouncer at this bar on New Years 2009, but two. The first guy let eveybody with me (including me) into the bar. I was the last guy in line other than a few folks behind me. Mind you, there was NO cover at all and the bar was anything but crowded. The second bouncer made some kind of comment like "hold on". I told him I just showed the first bouncer my ID, but he would NOT let me in after I said this. Upon the first bouncer telling my friends this, they all c... read more

THIS BAR DISCRIMINATES AGAINST BLACK PEOPLE – THIS BAR DOES NOT ALLOW BLACK PEOPLE INSIDE. READ THE BELOW STORY FROM MY FRIEND AND DO NOT SUPPORT THIS ESTABLISHMENT UNTIL THEY CHANGE THEIR DISCRIMINATORY ADMISSION POLICY. This is NYC in 2008. We just elected a black president. Let's communicate how we feel to the Continental by refusing to give them business. *** We were waiting in line at the Continental to get our ID's checked and in front of us was a black couple in their 20s. I heard one of the bouncers say to the couple... read more

Where the bouncers physically assult you – I'm in a group of 8, and we had just finished a round of shots. A good song comes on the jukebox, and I feel like dancing, so I get up to see if anybody would join me. Apparently another girl from the table across the way (from a group of 6 or so) had the same idea, so she and I end up dancing with each other. We swirl around each other in the open space for about a minute, then go to sit down just as this rough-looking Ozzy Osbourne type guy comes toward us. He confronts the other ... read more

Drink prices can't be beat!! – I went to Continental for the first time last night with a friend, and I have to say that I was in disbelief that a place could exist in this city with $3 drinks. Since I usually tend to frequent trendyish places with high cover and even higher drink prices, I was thrilled to find a cool, laid-back place that didn't try to eat my wallet before I left. It reminded me of college, and that made me extremely happy. Sorry, I didn't go there for the music- although I've heard that's great, too. I kne... read more

I love this bar! – Continental has changed a lot in the past few months. They don't have live music anymore but they have really cheap drinks and it is so worth checking out, especially for pre-gaming or meeting up with friends before hitting up the clubs in the LES or Midtown. They have happy hour all night, all drinks (including top-shelf) are $3.50 and shots are 5 for $10!
