50 Best Bars near East Syracuse

“The Caboose Inn has been a cornerstone of East Syracuse for many years. Great place to hang with old friends and meet some new ones !“

“some people are alsome toney is sweet heart.when having a party all ways have a great time.the owner is young and sexy 😚“

“I've been passing the place for years but decided to stop in a few times recently. They have a half a dozen soft-tip dart boards and multiple hard tip boards. That was exactly what I was looking for. The beer is cold. The bartenders are easy on the eyes. The hot chicken sandwich is really good.“

“Went there for the first time recently at the recommendation of a friend and enjoyed everything about it. The wings were spectacular as were the Philadelphia steak sandwiches. The owner is a nice guy and chatted with us before we sat down to eat. Definitely going back.“

“Great food and cold beer!!!“

“Amazing place and food!!!“

“Passing through town on a snowy night, our family needed to grab a meal to bring back to the hotel. We had trouble narrowing down what to order, as there were so many great-looking options. The service was friendly, prices were reasonable, and most importantly, every single thing we ordered was even better than we anticipated. Even our hard-to-please kids loved their meals and even actually asked to try some of ours. We will definitely be back when back in the area to try some of the other items (though it will be hard to pass up the jambalaya mac & cheese, southwestern egg rolls and loaded salts, knowing how good they are)!“

“This DoubleTree hotel restaurant was a revelation! After a long day of driving, it was the only place open. We ordered a club sandwich and short rib tacos and both were delicious and filling (photo does not do it justice). Staff was attentive and friendly, even at the late hour. Bonus points for having multiple IPAs on tap. If we ever need to stay in the Syracuse area, it will be here, and so will dinner.“

“Incredibly delicious pizza made with high quality ingredients. The beer menu is extensive. It’s rare for me to miss a monthly pizza special. 🍻🍕“

“I brought some out of town friends into Three Lives to check out the murals by local artists. Alex and Jon went WAY above and beyond to provide us with excellent drinks and service. This unique establishment raises the bar!“

“Bartenders make creative nice cocktails. Employees are well mannered and kind. Relaxing environment with several food options under the same roof.“

“Service at Vine stands out. We we greeted with a smile and Sam, our waitress, took good care of us! As did the bus staff and food runner. We ordered the duck wings to start our night and to try something new and both decided we would not get them again. The shnitzel and salmon entrees were good however we would try something different next time. The oatmeal cookie ice cream birthday dessert was yummy and very much appreciated. See you again!“

“The staff were very helpful and plenty of drink choices.“

“David made one heckuva fish fry! Sooo crispy…the first bite I had made a crunch-sound. This is the dinner, but I also ordered a sandwich and the filets were comparable in size (the former comes with two sides, the latter with just one). Highly recommend—for $30 for two (and delicious), I will indeed be returning there.“

“Went for my birthday, I had never been and was excited to experience the bar and had a great time. The atmosphere was very calm and welcoming, the staff were so pleasant and the food was great. It made my birthday perfect, I will definitely be going back some time.“

“Aloha crab was extremely good. We definitely enjoyed our seafood boils. Our server Joe was very friendly and helpful. Def recommend eating here and hopefully you get Joe as well“

“went there today for dinner the food was awesome the staff took great care of the party“

“Took hubby for birthday dinner in a blinding snowstorm from Moravia..was worth the white knuckles. Great atmosphere Megan( Red) made us welcome and got our drinks. Hubby had the steak and lobster($20 on Tues nites) awesome! I had the 12 os strip and fries($10). Never had it done so perfect!!( I like well and most char it) pretzel and cheese for dessert..lol and crispy but juicy wings were excellent! We will return its worth the drive!!!“

“Drink are fresh and taste so good. Love the variety they create with the seasons and Holidays. Live music is great and I love the outdoor area in the summer. Indoor and outdoor games are fun too. Toss N Fire always there and weekends in better weather a great lineup of rotating food trucks as well. The library room is a relaxing oasis away from the crowds on the weekends.“

“Outstanding venue. Hospitable staff, excellent food, top quality tables. A true treasure to the central NY pool scene.“

“Fun atmosphere! Great bartender!“

“Shifty's was a great pre-flight stop for dinner!

The atmosphere was a little louder than we were looking for (but it's a bar - I'll get over it haha), and the bartender was incredibly friendly! We ordered a few drinks and a dozen mild wings. It took a little while for the wings to come out (maybe 15 minutes or so), but they were absolutely worth the wait - they're right up there with the best wings I've ever had!“

“We each ordered the wings with different flavors (buffalo, bbq, and mango tango) interesting and enjoyable flavors. Drinks were good. It’s a nice place for a quick bite. Parking wasn’t too bad across the street. We’ll be back!“

“Always great food and drinks!! One of must go to places when I am back in NY.“

“great to hang out and watch the games“

“Small little friendly place.“

“Tina and her crew have a GREAT variety of absolutely fantastic craft brewed beer. Have yet to see anything but great music booking there. Granted- it’s not the easiest place to find (the old IBU) but ample parking behind the tire place and plenty of space both inside and out (weather permitting). A great addition to the area filling the void left by the loss of Full Boar and the disappointing replacement.“

“love their birria tacos & wings!!!“

“Everything is great at this establishment. Nothing more then supporting our veterans and having a great time to kick back have some drinks and food with the fellow ones who truly have carried us through the years.“

“Very affordable, great value for the price. The staff was very efficient & friendly. Good pub food. I ordered take out. Plenty of condiments available. The bun on the burger was a little dry. The burger was cooked to medium well which is how I ordered it. The French fries are the type that taste like the have a little breading on them. I just don't like this type of French fries. I will definitely try this neighborhood pub again because the staff was so efficient, the price was very affordable and my order was ready on time.“

“I live between Syracuse and Rochester and was in Syracuse. I’ve passed by Apizza Regionale several times and finally stopped. I ordered an Apizza with sausage to go. I’ve heard of New Haven style and Apizza but have never had it. I must say I was pleasantly surprised. The crust had a slight blackening on the bottom and was still airy and tasty. The sauce was perfect as was the sauce. It was very delicious and will definitely be back again. I also want to say how great the service was. The waitress that took my order was very pleasant and professional. I had knee surgery a couple weeks ago and when I returned to pick up my order she carried it out to my car for me. Thank you Apizza Regionale for the great experience.“

“Bre is the best! She makes the best drinks!“

“wheelers is a timeless neighborhood bar“

“Too many choices. So little time.“

“Great place to hang out with friends. Small town pub atmosphere and most everybody knows each other“

“So Happy Bubba is back in the kitchen! The food tonight was fantastic! We've missed your fish, bubba! So good!“

“Cozy Irish bar small place with that old bar feel you can tell it's been a bar for a very long time I enjoy it fora quick drink always someone interesting to talk to all in all a nice family owned corner bar with very little riff raff stop in for a stiff one as say hello it just might become your cheers everyone knows everyone there ave after a few visits everyone will know you as well“

“Best bartenders in the WORLD!“

“Sports Bar & Grill is a hidden gem for sports enthusiasts and casual diners alike. Offering an exciting atmosphere perfect for watching the game, it features large screens and a lively crowd. The menu offers a variety of bar favorites, including juicy burgers, wings, and crispy fries, all served with generous portions and fresh ingredients.“

“Susan does a great job! ✌“

“Been there plenty of times to shoot darts and hang out.....when shooting darts the service has always been excellent and the food they have provided has been phenomenal, I enjoy it Everytime I go there and never have a bad time, the atmosphere is also great“

“I read all these reviews and can say for a fact that most have never stepped foot in the place in decades if not at all . First off there is no draft beer . It was not a big seller and only had one maybe two people that came in and bought it . They got rid of it about 15 -20 years ago. As far as the food ? They have not had food cooked in there since a kitchen fire about 30 years ago . The Carpet the owner replaces every few years . If you are looking for the Ritz and a place to take your date for fine food and dance you are definitely in the wrong place . You you are looking for good company and friendly service with great prices on mix drinks and bottle beers then it is worth a stop in . Is it dark ? Yes . Does it need repairs ? Definitely yes . Do people get rude and obnoxious ? It's a bar not the Ritz and people can be obnoxious in a fine Dining let alone in a bar once in a great while . Well worth the visit . If you do not like it no one say you have to stay . It is worth the stop in and who knows you may even have a little fun while you are there .“

“everything was great except a $16 Manhattan that was too small to be considered a fair size for this drink. My mistake to accept it. I should have refused it. Everything else was perfect.“

“Prices are great and the portions are…… too big! Just ask for a box. You won’t be disappointed the next day. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Hometown pub that is always waiting to meet new people!“

“awesome food great beer selection“

“Justin Josh and Ray were spectacular house and weight. I can’t say enough good things about them. I came in with a family of five and we are so much challenging blended family and Justin just rocked it for us. He helped us enjoy our meal even though that we had family Scrabble in between and he made us just so pleasant ended up smiling and happy and cheerful. We definitely are coming back“

“I stopped in last night and the food was amazing!
I wish I had grabbed a few extra items “to go” because I live quite a ways away.
The bar is beautiful and you can tell the owner really intended to have a beautiful venue designed for live music with a certain feel.
Records in the ceiling, a nice stage, an awesome lounge off to the side, a cool table layout by the stage reminiscent of old jazz clubs. I wish it was closer, but I’ll be stopping by whenever I’m around.“
