Serious drink deals, no pretension and adept bartenders are among the highlights of this LES watering hole. Aside from offering a phenomenal five shots for 10 bucks (and that's anytime, Continental is worth stopping by for its unpredictable scene and colorful regulars. You get the sense that anything goes here--some groups just drop by for the shots and then take off, while some are lured in with $3.50 drinks and stay for the unique pulse. A fine place to kick off, spend, or end a boozy evening.
