Phebe's has more lives than a cat, and in its latest incarnation proves yet again that with an endless supply of nearby college students and heavy drinkers you can survive in the cutthroat world that now defines Bowery nightlife. While it has few distinguishing characteristics, it's the crowd that has always made Phebe's what it is. An ample supply of greasy bar food combined with alcohol is a sure recipe for success, and certain sports fans will revel in the homeliness of Phebe's.
