"Get the baby pepperoni Sicilian absolute perfection.Cheaper prices for cash payment. Quick service, and lotsssss of choices."

The Dram Shop Bar

★★★★☆ 3.8 (604) • $$

"Came to Dram Shop Bar during Restaurant Week and it was pretty good. I saw some reviews and was a little hesitant to come, but decided to try it out anyway and I'm glad that we did. It's seems like it's a chill, neighborhood bar. There's the bar area, tables, high top tables, and big booths. The booths can fit 6-8 people comfortably. The Restaurant Week deal came with a drink, 1st course, 2nd course, and a dessert. For the drink I chose Pinot Grigio which was pretty tasty. The 1st course was the wings for me, then I ordered fish and chips for the 2nd course. I wanted to try the sweet and spicy soy ginger wings but I was scared. Someone tell me how they are!! I couldn't find anyone writing about them in the reviews and the server wasn't convincing so I kept it safe with the BBQ. The BBQ was really good!! Well done, tender, and just enough sauce. The fish and chips were good too. The catfish came out piping hot and with remoulade sauce. The remoulade was just ok. Flavor was light, but it had a hint of spice. I don't like spicy so it was doable for me. For dessert, I ordered the brownie. The brownie was good and hot but I wish it would have come with ice cream. It came with whipped cream instead. Stole some of my friend's ice cream because she got the apple pie and that came with ice cream. Overall I enjoyed my meal. The service was good. He was very cool and accommodating. There was a pool table in the back and multiple bathrooms downstairs. Cool spot."

Foxy Johns Bar & Kitchen

★★★★☆ 4.2 (368) • $$

"A true hidden gem because this place has a neighborhood bar kinda vibe but food is not supposed to taste as amazing as Foxy John's! I am still waiting for something on their menu to not like. Bang bang shrimp? SLAPS! Specially if you get it with the California Cobb! Boom you just tried two of their items. Also the flat iron steak and fries? DELICIOUS! Steak was cooked perfect and fries perfectly seasoned! General Tao's and white rice on the side and boom you have a full meal! Also when I do have drinks there the margaritas and drinks they make are always strong! Best neighborhood place to eat and drink for me!"

Mustang Harry's

★★★★☆ 3.6 (499) • $$

"Mustang Harry's is the perfect spot to hit up before a Knicks game at MSG. It's an easy walk to the arena, making it super convenient. The food was good - a bit pricey, but that's to be expected in Midtown, and it's still half the price of what you'd pay for food and drinks inside MSG. It's a smart decision not have a happy hour here because $ is basically guaranteed before any MSG event...but quality of food sure goes down with the amount of customers...Great atmosphere and a solid choice for pre-game eats."

The Kettle Black

★★★★☆ 3.5 (465) • $$

"Came for a quick bite and drink. Lots of games were played, the place was decently quiet until certain games were on and the crowd grew louder and larger. Service was great! Waitress was friendly and informative on alcoholic beverages and food choices. Definitely returning again!"

The Wing Bar

★★★★☆ 3.7 (400) • $$

"Had a great experience here last night. The wings here were superb, I personally enjoy them well done and they did a fantastic job delivering on the request. Would definitely recommend the wings, the espresso martini ok also."

Brooklyn Public House

★★★★☆ 3.7 (379) • $$

"Stopped here for lunch during Christmas and New Year's. It was really busy but we were able to find 2 seats at the bar. There was only one member of staff working but she did a great job of serving so many people. We ordered the fish and chips, chicken club and a side of curry sauce. The food was delivered pretty quickly and everything tasted good. The curry sauce was slightly sweeter/fruitier than we are used to but it wasn't a bad version of UK curry sauce. There were a couple of football (soccer) games on and the bar was really buzzing on a Monday afternoon. A really fun spot to watch some sport and have some good pub food. We live locally and will definitely visit again."

Hurley's

★★★★☆ 3.7 (304) • $$

"Beer list w NO PRICES......BIG TURNOFF for meWife had $16. Martini Be Aware....check comes w20% gratuity already added !!Atmosphere 5 out of 10Won't be back........too many better places"

Overlook

★★★★☆ 3.5 (293) • $$

"We walked thinking we would be able to see the city from an "overlook". We were told the "overlook" was closed until 5pm.We decided to sit at the bar and have the Pommes Frites and a beer. The beer was cold and our bartender was a delight and friendly. My daughter and he conversed sports and the recent trade of "our" Freddie Freeman to the Dodgers.Before we left, he allowed us to go up to the "overlook" which is not an overlook but an outside patio with no view. Haha- the joke was on us, but the name did get us to walk 3 miles to visit.We enjoyed ourselves despite the disappointment of a view."

Kent Ale House

★★★★☆ 4.1 (209) • $$

"The view is still awesome here, they have a pretty sweet spot right on the corner.The service was way better this time, both the bartender and server were extremely friendly, helpful and kind. It definitely brightened my day.On this trip I tried the food. It was decent pub food, nothing I was overly enthusiastic about. The wings were just ok and the fried pickles are what I consider a 'fair' type of beer batter fry, think funnel cake-ish. Again, these were fine. Typical standard bar/pub food.I got ciders and tried some canned sweet tea thing that was advertised in the bathroom, they were standard.A much better experience this go around and I will be back, especially for that view."

Baker Street Irregulars

★★★★☆ 3.5 (268) • $$

"Baker Street has new owners, but is still bustling on a weekday night. The special house recipe spicy marg was surprisingly top notch! Wings were also a competitive price for these parts. Homemade chips weren't my thing, would recommend regular fries instead. Definitely will be back."

Clara's

★★★★☆ 4.3 (158) • $$

"Stop in there for a bite before seeing shows at nearby Gold Sounds. Dive bar with good wings."

Krush

★★★★☆ 3.5 (231) • $$

"Fun little dive bar located on Koreatown. Located on the 4th floor, you entered this energetic, grungy bar. Great drink deals and bunch of point tables. Note you need to get 2 pitchers of beer/seltzer to play pong. Great place for a pre/post game. Step by if you're in the area or if you're waiting for reservations. Great staff as well."

Pig n Whistle

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (256) • $$

"Typical pub. Nice upstairs section with balcony. Nice bartenders. Came here for an after party and it was ok."

O'Keefe's Bar & Grill

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (233) • $$

"This reliable neighborhood bar should really clean up more given the lack of sports bars in the area. It's a breath of resh air and relief with jerseys and banners hanging on walls, plenty of space, and TVs lining the bar. I imagine it gets busy on Saturday and Sunday afternoons, but it was a perfectly civilized place to throw back a few beers and watch baseball.The food is expected pub grub, plenty of hearty favorites. Stick with the standards and you'll be satisfied."

Blue Haven East

★★★★☆ 4.3 (119) • $$

"Went last Sunday to watch football! The nachos were HUGEEEE and delicious. Was not a huge fan of the buffalo boneless wings, they were a little dry. Loved the ambience, I would go back to watch any kind of sports."

Pipin's Pub

★★★★☆ 3.9 (144) • $$

"Had a great dinner experience here last night, a Saturday. We had burgers (Gaelic and Barbecue) which were perfectly cooked and large, with delicious ingredients. Our waitress was friendly and efficient. The place is lively, with games on screens all around the front room where we were seated, but it wasn't too loud to have conversation. We were able to substitute simple iceberg salads for fries (which looked great but we are trying to control ourselves). Prices are reasonable. Highly recommend if you're looking for a pub."

Blarney Stone

★★★★☆ 3.6 (145) • $$

"A clean Irish pub across the street from Penn station.Walked by and peeked in and said this will do.So we just wanted a quick bite to kill a little time before the train showed up.Plenty wide screens around the the bar and the other side of the tables.Settled in for a Rueben sandwich and fries.The Rueben was good and the fries came out hot and crispy.It was a good choice."

Long Acre Tavern

★★★★☆ 4 (116) • $$

"A charming neighborhood pub in the heart of Manhattan, offering a perfect blend of classic tavern atmosphere and modern culinary approach.HighlightsAtmosphere: Warm, inviting with exposed brick walls and wooden accentsCraft Beer Selection: Impressive rotating taps featuring local and international brewsPub Food: Elevated bar fare Multiple TVs at bar and dining areasExcellent visibility from almost every seatScreensA great spot for sports enthusiasts looking for a top-tier viewing experience in the heart of New York City."

Custom House

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (211) • $$

"Okay so this is literally one of my favorite "Hangout after work" bars but this time I took my Adorkable guy with me for the first time ever. And as usual it didn't disappoint. Let's talk about it!Atmosphere! So this has like a divebar feel to it which I dig. When you walk in by the entrance there's like a couch you can chill on. When you reach the very back they have a projector that comes down so the customers can watch sports. There's pretty plates on the walls and some mirrors. I love how lively the place gets it's always a good time with good people. The bathroom is spacious and always clean every time I come as well so that's a plus for me! LolOkay food time ^_^Dranksss!My adorkable doesn't drink so he had a ginger ale. But I ended up getting a **Raspberry Margarita** which is not on the menu only because I asked if there was any flavors I can add to my margarita and they said we have raspberry and I said sure let's go for it lol. It was pretty good! Appetizers!Ground Beef Nachos:: So If you read any of my other reviews you already know that my bf and I loveee Nachos! I did want to bring some variety to this review so I ordered a second appetizer lol. He literally rated the Nachos 3 out 5 and I have to agree it wasn't bad by any means but the meat only had a little bit of seasoning. The texture was off because the ground beef was kind of dry not really juicy. There wasn't enough cheese it was kind of hiding on the bottom meaning once you're halfway through the food that's when you start tasting the cheese sauce. The chips were a little stale so overall the dish was mediocre. A way to combat this is well you can let them know if more seasoning is needed or if there's not enough cheese tell them that's an important part of Nachos! Lol Warm Spinach Dip:: I usually get this every time I come because it's so delicious. And it didn't disappoint! Cheese yummy goodness with spinach? You literally can't go wrong! My chips were kind of stale as well but the dip made up for the taste of the chips so I was a happy camper! LolEntrées! (It gets better just hold on lol)Chicken quesadilla:: it was really good the chicken was juicy and the cheese was monetary jack and cheddar so I was in heaven lol. The Housemade Guacamole was soooo fresh and delicious! Fish & Chips:: This was a Chantel Showstopper! Once again my bf gets a dish I love more than mine lol. The fish was surprisingly huge it was succulent moist and it literally melts in your mouth. The fries were like a 3/5 because it just wasn't salty enough to our liking lolOverall I'm still going to come back because there's so many different things on the menu to try and try again! For example one time when I came with my coworkers we had their wings and calamari and they were so good. I'll update my review when I come here next time and try other things but seriously guys come for the fish and chips because that fish was amazing! Until next time happy eating ^_^"

Barking Dog

★★★★☆ 3.8 (112) • $$

"We got to Barking Dog right before brunch ended but waited on a friend and ended up staying until dinner. Despite just having drinks for a while, the service was super friendly, and we never felt rushed or like an inconvenience. When we finally ordered, the arancini and calamari were good, and the steak was cooked just right. Cozy vibes, great food, and a laid-back atmosphere--definitely coming back to actually try brunch next time!"

773 Lounge

★★★★☆ 4.2 (85) • $

"One visit and I can write I'll go back 6 days a week and twice on Sundays. The prices are fair, the atmosphere friendly and hospitable, and the food tasty. We eat a dozen wings ($12; that Wednesday is $1 wing night) and pulled pork quesadilla ($12). Plenty of TVs and buzz enough to be buzzy without drowning your conversation tie the package together."

Side Door

★★★★☆ 4.1 (82)

"Really cool pub in Midtown. We went in the middle of the day so didn't have any issues with service like some of the reviews I see here. They were attentive and fast, and they have an inspired menu. There were many more things I would've loved to try, but we got the Romanian mici sliders, which were amazing, and the Hungarian langos, which I enjoyed at first but then it got to be too much. A little too doughy and cheesy, if that's possible. Maybe if they used the same amount of dough and cheese but made two slightly thinner ones instead, it would be more balanced. Still, better than your traditional pub fare. What left me stumped was the beer selection. If you walk into a self-described gastropub in the west coast you're greeted by so much variety, ambers, stouts, saisons, etc, that you end up with decision paralysis... but in a good way (?). Not so much here."

Union Grounds

★★★★☆ 3.9 (81) • $$

"This is my favorite sports bar in the area. ELEVEN TV cramped into a single room space. Fair prices. Super attentive staff. Great selection of beverages and snacks. Even greater selection of board games along the back wall if sports are just not your jam. Outdoor seating is also available, for which a tv often times gets brought out.You won't find yourself eating healthy here, but who goes to a bar for a salad, amiright? I am actually quite fond of the steak and bell pepper spring rolls, which are huge and satisfying. I actually find myself craving these from time to time, which I can't say about many bar menu items elsewhere. My recent Union Grounds discovery is their Trivia Night on Tuesdays at 8pm. My team is embarrassingly terrible and came in dead last place to no one's surprise, but it was still a fun way to end a Tuesday. Don't snooze on the $10 frozen spicy margs and $3 chicken taco specials.With yet another football season quickly approaching, I am definitely looking forward to hanging out at Union Grounds way too often for way too long. Go Jags!"

Goldie’s Tavern

★★★★☆ 4.3 (43) • $$

"This place is a gem! It's a standard pub, but plenty of space inside and on the patio. YES it has precious Patio seating! There's speakers outside so you can still have music or play the pub games. It's also a great location it just down 30th so it's quieter than all the craziness on 7th. Plenty of TVs for sports. There's Mixtape Bingo every Tuesday. Surprised me the vegan chicken I had and is the best! Crispy and delicious! Staff is super friendly (we love Savannah!) and drinks are well made. The Vesper martini is strong and not too sweet."

Mezquila Bar & Restaurant

★★★★★ 5 (18)

"My friends and I came here on a weeknight for happy hour. The drinks and food off the happy hour menu were delicious! The bartender as well as the owner were so attentive and great. We will definitely be coming back again."

Abe's Corner

★★★★★ 4.6 (17)

"Been here once, a kosher restaurant that doesn't feel like a kosher restaurant, not too expensive, laid-back, doesn't feel stuffy, doctrinaire. I have to eat kosher, but you'd like it even if you didn't have to."

The Grisly Pear

★★★★☆ 4.1 (20)

"Not a large selection of food but what they offer they do well. Bar feel with tacos and donuts. Don't skip the donuts! My family got them twice when we stayed at the Hilton next door. Service was very friendly, owner was lovely and you can feel like a regular if you visit more than once. The negative is the interior is pretty dark and my old eyes required my flashlight to read menu."

Chateau Yaffa

★★★★☆ 3.9 (14)

"It sounds like an incredible journey into the past, where you can feel the atmosphere of the late 70s and 80s and reunite with familiar faces. Those times are likely associated with a unique style of communication and culture, especially in the context of early Jewish immigration. Such places offer the chance not only to dive into nostalgia but also to enjoy the authentic vibe of that era. Great food and very friendly service by the way..."

The Swan

★★★★★ 4.5 (10)

"This used to be another spot, The Swan moved in and did the remix. This is a friendly after work spot located in Bed-Stuy. TV's are everywhere, it was soccer on tonight and the bar was going wild. The drinks are top shelf and flowing, the prices are affordable, and this bartender will mix whatever you desire. I was invited here for after work drinks and The Swan did not disappoint. The service is friendly, the bartender is attentive, and there's a wonderful seating area in the back yard if the bar scene is not for you. I had Espolòn Tequila and pineapple juice which was s tasty and not too sweet. The shots of Espolòn Tequila made my night. I like my wings HOT. The hot wings with cayenne based sauce and ranch were definitely worth the trip.Come out and enjoy the casual atmosphere on any night, seating also available out front. The after work prices are available on Saturdays and wait for it... they have alcoholic smoothies (did I say that correctly?)Come thru support local business."
