Jay's Tavern Beer Garden

Absolutely deplorable customer service. I was visiting the Bronx from Portland, and stopped in to get a beer. I have seen inanimate objects more helpful than the girl at the counter. Certainly the worst bar I have ever been at in my life

Worst experience I ever had at this bar. They were prejudice against our musical culture when I used the jukebox to play 1 song the bar manager got mad at me and my family and kicked us out of the bar and cursed us out. Meanwhile 3 random guys from the bar threw something at my uncle's car as we were about to leave. Then the guys started a fight with my whole family and stabbed 4 of them. We are never going to this bar ever again. The absolute worst and most traumatizing experience of my life.

No Food...
But I didn't go there to eat...

A simple dive located on the East side of the Bronx. Been performing here for the last couple of years. I keep coming back because the drinks are cheap, there’s a 420 friendly back area with seating, shades and a grill. Once a Month (sometimes more during the summer) they do parties with a live DJ and offer free food or food for purchase as well as comedy shows with no cover charge or Drink minimum. The Bartender (named Viv) slings a good drink. Shes a hit with the regulars. She is the event planner who puts together the theme nights and shows. Average cost of a drink is btwn $8-$10. Nothing fancy about this place but I like a bar that unpretentious.
Pros: They take credit cards. They have a Pool table, darts, live music, good bartender, good location, good late 30s to early 50s crowd.
Cons: Only one bathroom. They sometimes have food (but if not you can bring in your own or order delivery). On the nights where there isn’t a DJ they have a jukebox

I love this bar i use to come here on my breaks when I worked in Williamsbridge manor which was right infront of the bar lol the older italian lady that bartends there she is really sweet and the young girl on Saturdays but to be honest the regulars that come in I guess which are men they make it very uncomfortable for other men for instance me and my brother and my fiancé was there just wanted to drink hear music and just enjoy right away they felt uncomfortable the guys were starein talking looking and it’s very childish and makes no one wanna stay or be there at that which is a shame cause it can be a nice bar if they just change up the ppl that come in make it alittle more welcoming !!

Cool place to hang out and everyone is friendly. Don't let the pictures fool you, they don't serve any food.

Good crowd, excellent beer, great customer service. Jay's allowed us to throw my bday party here on a Friday night and was very accommodating. Would return and recommend anytime.

It's one of my favorite places!!!! The people are welcoming and friendly. Thank you for a good time!!

Bartender Viv is the best... she handled the crowd with a smile on her face??

CRAB LEGS!!

A small hole in the wall dive bar filled with "older" people. The night I went during a week day a Tuesday it only had about 6 people. Bartender was very friendly and gave us free shots. No DJ was present that night so music was played off a phone which is fine but did not get the full bar experience as expected. The food was mediocre at best. One plus is they have a pool table in the back with plenty of space to play (not too tight)

We just love jays tavernLot's of fun.?
