“This craft beer thing is bullshit.” So says Safe Haven co-owner Patrick Meagher, fed-up with the fact that at many New York beer bars, ordering a canned American beer is the social equivalent of strolling in naked and pissing on the bartender. Hence his intention to open a beer-centric bar free of any wine-bar attitude, where Belgians froth alongside PBR and Bud and your drink selection is spared judgment. Meagher and co. take the name from Henry Hudson’s first impression of New York Harbor and intend the bar to be a safe haven from “bad attitudes and general discomfort.” And they’re on the right track: once complete, this place could be the ideal bar — low-brow attitude (read: divey cred) melded with high-quality appreciation. And all with a modest pricetag and ‘Cat Scratch Fever’ blaring in the background.-Bret Stetka
