Profile

Drop Off Service's owners have done right by this former laundromat, transforming its once-shabby interior completely but saving the wonderful plate-glass front windows, complete with etched-in name. Where industrial-sized dryers once spun, there are now gleaming taps, dark-stained, high-backed wooden booths, stylishly upholstered chairs, and rows of invitingly sleek barstools. The slick décor doesn’t upstage the main attractions: The list of European wines is concise and dead-on, and among the 22 beers on tap are mainstays such as the taste-bud punishing California import Arrogant Bastard Ale, the refreshing mild bitter ale Marstons Pedigree, and Dry Black Thorne—an English cider that’s a dry, snappy-finishing alternative to the sweet stuff. On weekends, the space fills up with mature, clean-cut East Villagers, some of them ex-pats looking for a taste of home while the incredibly accommodating staff bends over backwards to fulfill their patrons' cravings.
