The Penny Farthing

I've been going to The Penny Farthing for a while when I'm in the area. We have always had a great experience and this recent Valentine's Day did not disappoint. My wife, friend and I met up before a concert and had some delicious appetizers. Chx quesadilla was great (huge portion too!) and the spinach artichoke dip was the best I've ever personally had! Tara took care of us at the bar and was super friendly! Excellent service and my wife loved her espresso martini! Thanks for a great evening! Hope to see y'all soon.

Nephew brought me here to have pre dinner coffee martini on a wednesday night. We came on around 530pm and we were quickly seated at the bar. The bartender was friendly & nice. The place has a good cosy ambience. The place feels spacious and not so loud. We could carry conversation with out shouting at each other. I would probably come back to have a meal next time. Glance at the menu, food looks good & prices reasonable.

Food- 4/5Service- 3/5Ambiance- 4/5Penny you played with the lack of refried beans on those nachos !!! The chicken however was DELICIOUS! I'd def. try other dishes based on how well seasoned the nachos were. The service was going ok until the end. I selected "no tip" bc I paid a 20% tip in cash...And.. there was a service charge on the billAnd... when I hit no tip (had cash in my hand) the server literally spinned around and walked off... the sign inside reads "all day espresso martinis"The sign outside said "11AM- late" well ladies and gents, on this Wednesday, late was 8:30PM, I told the server that I wish I'd known bc I would've ordered multiple when I sat and she informed me you can only order 1 at a time... So keep these things in mind when planning your visit 1) $5 martinis are NOT ALL DAY on Wednesdays and 2) it's 1 martini at a time so if you really want to enjoy it like I wasn't able to this trip... start at 11AM when they do Post denial following the initial martini, the experience was a wrap! 1 thumb up and would def return for food and to get the full $5 espresso martinis affect

Penny Farthing is a good place to watch sports in this area, thanks to its lively atmosphere and plenty of screens. The food is generally mediocre. It offers a mix of dishes but falls short with its salmon. While it was cooked perfectly, the portion was disappointingly tiny--definitely not suitable for anyone with a hearty appetite like me. If you're looking for a satisfying meal, I would recommend sticking to traditional bar food. The atmosphere is great for a casual night out, but for those expecting a filling dinner, the salmon might leave you wanting more. Overall, it's best to enjoy the classics here rather than venturing into the seafood offerings. To top it off, our server dropped off the check right as we started our dessert, which felt rushed. If you go, try the wings--they're the highlight of the menu.

MANHATTAN/East Village: The Penny Farthing is a cozy restaurant with wood accents, brick walls, and just enough sunlight coming in to add to the warm feeling.We stopped by for a quick drink and were pleasantly surprised that leashed and friendly dogs are allowed inside. A hot apple cider was mixed perfectly for a tasty drink to add to the comfortable atmosphere.Lunch and dinner are served every day with added brunch on the weekends. Check out this sports bar to watch the game with American style food.

I really like this bar especially in the summer. Been here a few times and the drinks are great, nice ambience and good service. Sometimes they have people dancing to music and stuff but overall it's a great place to go to.

Laid back neighborhood bar vibe. They do offer food, such as steak/cobb/chicken salad, as well as burgers and chicken sandwiches. A few pasta dishes. They have a brunch with the typical fare: pancakes, burritos, poached eggs, steak, French toast.This is more of a spot to stop by for some drinks.They have a large draft and bottled beer selection, as well as hard seltzers.They do have a few house cocktails:Virtual Insanity: teremana reposed, Campari, lime juice, pineapple juice, and simple syrup.Poison: tanteo tequila spicy margarita with a tajin rimAll mixed up: Vodka, Bailey's, simple syrup, strawberriesHot topic: gin, cucumber, lemon, simple syrup, egg whiteBad reputation: whiskey, honey, lemon, simple syrup.The cocktails are decent. Not the best I've ever had, but would be a decent stop on a bar crawl or for a casual evening. If you're here, you're probably not looking for innovative craft cocktails or gourmet food.Service was laid back and made sure I was taken care of.

$5 espresso martini CANNOT be beat. They had a nice punch and the ambiance was casual but clean with really friendly patrons to chat with as the night went on. I'm not the biggest espresso martini person either, but this place will certainly convert you. It helps that the music here is great as well! A gem in a sea of overpriced cocktail spots.

Grey happy hour spot with some solid deals.A lot of outdoor seating, a big dining room, and a more intimate basement are. I have only been for their happy hours ($5 espresso martinis on Wednesday and $5 aperol spritz). Both were very good and reasonably priced. People I have been with have ordered food and it's been decent but overpriced.Service has been excellent both times. Overall I would come back for drinks but skip out on the food. 6.33 / 10

I love the happy hour deal these espresso martinis have! You have to order food too and we go the spinach dip with chips and they paired perfectly together. There's lots of places to sit and chat. The crowd was definitely those who come for an after work outing.
