Editorial Review for Cogans Instant Art Bar – by Mike Connolly
In Short
An eclectic collection of toys, paintings, statues and other collectibles line the shelves in the bar's cramped interior. A small stage, barely the size of a couple of pallets shoved together, holds a solo guitarist (or a four piece rock band if the musicians don't jump around too much). About half a dozen tables are scattered throughout the dark room, leaving many customers standing during sets. Thanks to its open-mic Tuesdays, this tiny space has become a springboard for fledgling Norfolk musicians. On a good night, when a local favorite plays, getting inside can verge on the impossible.

I used to LOVE this place...but since December of 2007, I have had nothing but problems every time I have visited. The issues range from poor customer service, misplaced orders, orders taking excessively long to arrive, incorrect billing, misleading happy hour prices and dirty bathrooms/floors/tables. Diners beware! Nasty waitstaff and hassles with bills aren't worth the price....there are a lot of other great pizza places around.
Pros: Good pizza
Cons: Bad service, billing issues, unclean

Beer selection is out of this world, I had my going away party here when I left the area and they were very accomodating. Pizza is deeeeeeeeeeeeeeelicious, I haven't had better in all of Hampton Roads. This is one place I wish I could've taken with me because it's definitely one of a kind. The staff is always friendly, it's a great place to go and just hang out...very cool atmosphere. GO!
Pros: Pizza and Beer...what else could anyone want??
Cons: Parking can be a pain, but if you go at night you can park at the bank
