This place is amazing. Punk atmosphere, good music and NY sports. The food is on point and there is for every diet.
The food is amazing, the drinks are great and priced accordingly. Kat is an amazing bartender who cares more about people than money. Love her so much. As an industry gal, this is the place to go.
I wasn’t drinking on this particular night and the bartender Lindsey was taking time on a busy New York Giants football night to make me spectacular NA cocktails! Her attention to detail in these drinks was great and I really felt included in the atmosphere despite not drinking alcohol!!
And Jason the bartender was also fantastic - kept checking on us and making sure we were all good!
I enjoyed the burger I got too! Loved the sauce they put on it!

Occidental is a popular bar known for its excellent food, featuring fantastic chicken tendies and burgers like the BACON BORGERS. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, ensuring good service while the bartenders keep the drinks flowing. The atmosphere can get packed and lively, especially during New York games, making it a great spot to catch a Giants game. The decor offers a cozy ambience, complemented by Christmas lights and 90s music videos on the TV, creating a vibrant happy hour atmosphere. The music selection can shift to loud heavy metal, but the overall vibe remains super cool. The hidden back patio area is a wonderful place to enjoy drinks with friends, particularly in the summer. Despite its dive bar appearance, Occidental is a fantastic find for those looking to enjoy tasty cocktails, good wine, and a great beer selection while grabbing a bite to eat. The bar has a pretty good vibe and decent food, with a laid-back atmosphere that makes it a nice spot to unwind with friends. The drinks are reasonably priced, and the menu offered a variety of tasty options that hit the spot. The kitchen is open until they close, making it great for a late-night move. The staff is always really nice and the crowd is always pretty chill. This is the kind of place that feels like a true neighborhood bar—filled with locals, great energy, and zero pretension. The drinks are spot on, and the vibe is even better.
