50 Best Gastropubs near Forest Hills

“Love this place . Nice drinks and beautiful environment . Very cute bartenders. Lindo demais . ❤️😎“

“Always a pleasure coming to Rove! Tonite was an exceptional experience. I wish i got the bartenders name. Wednesday 4/24/24 between 7-9pm. Nice nails and curly hair. She was funny pleasant and took care of us. Long story short, after great apps and drinks, paid the bill and left…I dropped a $50 out of my pocket after I paid and left and was only 2 store fronts down and she came after me telling me you dropped a bill and gave it back. You don’t see this honestly often anymore. Kudos to her and Rove deserves her as an employee.“

“An amazing, friendly, caring customer service always☺️The BEST place to have a nice time, i HIGHLY recommend.“

“We are never disappointed when we stop here when we visit NYC. Atmosphere and food is always fantastic and they make killer Manhattans.

“A very sweet and unique movie theater where delicious snacks and drinks at affordable prices are served while excerpts of movies are screened on the wall. Ticket prices are reasonable given the wonderful experience this place proportionates in a quite interesting setting. This is the kind of movie theaters that need to be preserved and copied.“

“Great food, service and outdoor space! Highly recommend!“

“I thought it was weird that we were getting crap service for the first time ever… but when Kian told us that he’s just waiting to quit & move back to Ireland in February, it made sense. Good luck giving crap service elsewhere, Kian!“

“The Pork Belly Bao Buns were freaking amazing!!!!“

“Good food! Matthew the bartender makes great drinks!“

“I had my birthday here such a great place to have any celebration, the food was amazing the wait time for the food was not too long, and The staff was friendly and willing to help making it special and enjoyable.

“This was a fun spot downstairs in our hotel. Great to stop by and enjoy a quick bite and some NY beer in a hip yet casual atmosphere.“

“This was an amazing experience! Ten Degrees Bar is one of those rare places that immediately makes you feel like you’ve stumbled onto a hidden gem. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between cozy and lively — dim lighting, great music that’s not too loud to talk over, and a crowd that feels effortlessly cool but still welcoming. Whether you’re going for after-work drinks, a date night, or just to unwind with friends, this place delivers.

The drink menu is impressive — creative cocktails alongside all the classics done right. Every drink we ordered was perfectly balanced, beautifully presented, and clearly made with care. But what really made the night stand out was the service, especially from Lucas, who was behind the bar.

Lucas was absolutely fantastic. He has that rare mix of professionalism and personality that makes you want to stay a little longer. He took the time to ask what kind of flavors we liked and then recommended a few cocktails off-menu that turned out to be spot on. He worked quickly even though the bar was packed, never losing his cool, and somehow managed to make everyone at the bar feel like they were his favorite customer. You can tell he really knows his craft — and actually enjoys it.

It’s that kind of attentive, genuine service that turns a good night into a memorable one. Thanks to Lucas and the whole Ten Degrees team, we’ll definitely be coming back.

If you’re looking for a bar with great drinks, good energy, and standout staff, Ten Degrees Bar is the spot.“

“Great service… good food.“

“Amazing brunch this morning. Excellent and super friendly staff, food was amazing!🙌🏼👍👏“

“Pretty cool spot to grab drinks and hang out. However this is a gastropub and the amount they charge for food is outrageous. I ordered the Loaded Nachos for $17 and the amount they give you is insulting. I was excited to have a spot to regular for food and drinks but I might be avoiding their food till something is done.“

“The backyard of the restaurant is great for a summer night out with their open roof. They need to expand the food offerings.“

“We enjoyed eating at Blackwell's in Oct/Nov 2018 while visiting New York from Ireland. Ann Marie made us very welcome. Food was really nice and staff were very helpful. Hope to visit again if when visit New York again.“

“The District, located on the UES of Manhattan on 3rd Avenue, is such a great spot!! :-) I visited for the first time this weekend and I had the best experience!! Dara, Nick & the team at The District are so wonderful - my friends & I were so well taken care of during our visit!! In terms of food cocktails, they make an excellent spicy margarita, and their appetizers are delicious. I highly recommend their Homemade Mozzarella Sticks! Lastly, The District has such a lovely atmosphere - it's so warm + cozy inside. 10/10 - I highly recommend this place!!“

“Great drinks very friendly staff“

“Lively sports bar with good service and polite staff. The prices are affordable, making it a great spot to hang out. They also have a speakeasy downstairs, where I attended a private event. It’s a pretty cool space with an exposed original brick ceiling, adding to the charm.

Kid-friendliness: No“

“Bunch is great . Try butter Biscuits. Chicken and waffle is good.“

“Sharp house cocktails and excellent food“

“A ideal quiet spot in Midtown East in the late afternoon, probably the only one with all the construction going on Lexington Avenue outside, for a cordial business meeting for coffee or a glass of wine, with very welcomng and professional waiters.“

“Had a great late breakfast complete with Mimosas and Alfie’s Amber Ale- all served by our awesome bartender Niamh from Ireland!!!“

“I went to Bangia to chill with friends and if you want a Korean bar vibe, you can feel that here with Korean style music and food. The food itself wasnt great, but it is not a restaurant so that is fine. The service is great so I guess I recommend.“

“Great atmosphere and genuinely attentive service. The Lemon Pepper Curry wings are a standout. They're unique, crispy, and packed with flavor. Other favorites: the Curry Chicken Quesadilla and the Char Siu BBQ Pork Fried Rice. If you’re having a cocktail and like bourbon, order the Super Strawberry Smash Bros. All around a fantastic spot. I’ll be back.“

“looked up soup and the bronx and this is where google took me. I should stop listening to google but I can’t help it. this little voice in my head saying “be an individual, be an individual,” yet i turn my head and say no imma look it up on google this pocked sized friend inside of my phone. how convenient. I didn’t end up eating the soup bc I burnt my tongue but it smelled like asparagus and hazel nut squash (which is what i asked for) so considering that 5/5!!!“

“Judge Roy Bean Public House your attention to detail shows in every bite I took. Every dish achieves excellence. This place is surrounded by evening entertainment options. The workers maintained good awareness. The dining here is truly satisfying.“

“The atmosphere of this place is very friendly, if greeted with the right server. But other than that, the food always amazes me because it’s delicious every time I go with my family. They never disappoint with that and it’s very affordable. When you go in, you can sit anywhere you’d like as well !“

“Excellent food, great service and staff and very nice atmosphere.“

“Date night with ex girlfriend“

“I will never get tired of this place. My #1 recommended NYC restaurant to anyone who asks. I am a GM at a restaurant in Astoria, Queens and I’ve been in the restaurant industry for over 13 years. This place is hands down my favorite. Their dining area is not that large so you must make a reservation. Their waitstaff is so friendly, funny and knowledgeable about their menu. I didn’t get our servers name but shoutout to him for recommending we add bacon to our burgers it was definitely a must, and elevated our burgers.
If you come here you 10000% MUST get the chopped cheese rice cakes. I dream about these things. Also garlic parm tots are insane..

I’ve been here a handful of times and cannot wait to come back!“

“This is the best tasting West Indian food in N.Y. ! Guyanese style Chinese food , best on Jamaica Ave and probably Queens! The food took less then 10 min to come and the staff had no attitude!“

“Good outdoor dining during covid. And the drinks are yummy too“

“The food was delicious , service and staff were so attentive and accommodating , conveniently located a few blocks from Time Square .It is definitely a must in your next visit to NY .“
