“Donovan’s Pub is owned by 2 Woodside gentlemen. The staff is amazing friendly welcoming and knowledgeable. The food is absolutely delicious and great portions. They have the Best Burger in NYC. It’s the best burger I have ever had. They have awesome live music every weekend on their brand new stage. Their lineup of musicians is the best around. I’ve been going there for 50+ years and I highly recommend Donovan’s Pub in Woodside NY.“

“I went to The Harbor Light with my grandfather who is hard of hearing. I cannot tell you how accommodating the staff was. We originally sat in an area where he was unable to hear well. The owner Bernadette and the server Annie opened up a whole other section in the restaurant for us that was quieter. They were so kind and we enjoyed a lovely lunch. I would definitely recommend this place. They truly care about their patrons. Thank you Harbor Light!“

“Me and my family love Cassidy’s. We go to NY every year for Christmas. This year we had a group of 23 and Seamus was able to accommodate us with a reservation. Our waiter was Joe C. ,who was great. It’s not easy waiting on a large group of people, but he was super patient and kind.“

“I had such a wonderful experience at Royale. First it has an awesome bar and restaurant indoors and the space outdoors is beautifully decorated. I have celiac disease and they had the most delicious gluten free nachos (made on site) ever! They were perfect. I was so happy I could have them and they were excellent! Great atmosphere and food! Highly recommend when in the Village.“

“Best fries ever! The burgers use to be good... Idk if the changed management or workers but, definitely not the same as a year ago when I first came here. Vegetables are not fresh & not enough quantity. I had to ask for a good amount of veggies on my burger since the last time I went there all they gave me was a leaf of lettuce (the core!) & 3 strips of onions. Ps Spicy mayo sauce is good“

“Received this note.

Hi Sebastian. Wasn't planning on using your email, but I think we may have had a burger mix-up! I fear that you received one without cheese when you had in fact paid for extra cheese! Is this the case? If so I do apologize and we will make it right in the way of a refund and many beers on your next visit.

My reply was:

Burger had cheese and extra cheese and was delicious. Appreciate the follow up and offer. I will happily keep paying for beers!

The point is everyone is proud of working there. It’s clear. Strong leadership, amazing crew and great product.

Love that place.“

“This place rocks … Blake and Jack know how to make a nice inviting bar ! They’ve done it for years“

“Came in with a friend who used to be a local. He had set the bar high but I had an even better time than I thought I would. Was packed but didn’t seem crowded, clean, good seating and the overall setup is really cool. Then I realized there was an entire back room- we posted up on the high top booth for hours and had a great time. If I was local I would absolutely live here.“

“Music Bingo was such Fun!!!“

“Nice friendly bar with a great choice of beers“

“Wu Lou Lounge is one of those spots that feels a little sketchy when you first pull up, but that’s part of the charm. It’s old school, unpretentious and very much its own vibe.

Security is thorough and effective. Be prepared for a full pat down and bag check, even at 5pm for happy hour. They take it seriously. The staff is cool in that classic NYC way. Not Southern hospitality sweet, but warm, direct and welcoming.

The food is fresh, tasty, piping hot and highly affordable, $.60cent wings on Tuesday. Definitely a strong point. Drinks come in smaller cups, but they start at $5, which is unheard of these days. It’s also one of the last remaining spots that still allows indoor smoking, if that’s your thing.

The music is solid and keeps the energy up. The crowd is fun, outgoing, and far from stiff or bougie. This is not a fancy baller lounge, so dress and move accordingly. You don’t need anything shiny or expensive to have a good time here (wink wink leave the bling & mink coat home). Just come ready to enjoy yourself.

If you’re looking for polished and upscale, this isn’t it. If you’re looking for authentic, affordable and a good time with personality, Wu Lou delivers. This is classic Brooklyn, before gentrification and redevelopment.“

“Harmony our waitress was awesome, this place has the feel like you are in your home town.“

“great food, great staff not to be missed“

“Great spot for watching World Cup , sat on curbside and watch the game beer selections is great same as the food but the best part is services Hunter is so kind and took a good care of us . If you want to hang out in Bedford this is the spot get the outside seat and watch the game with millions dollars views .“

“Been there a few times. I must say food is fantastic!!! The fish tacos and the southwestern chicken sandwich is a must try. They have different specials everyday. Friendly atmosphere, service is very attentive. Love trivia nights and live music on Saturdays. So far is my favorite place to go with friends and family. Great spot for lunch, dinner and weekend brunch. Highly recommended!!“

“Rippers is located in a concession area in rockaway beach so it is a fun, Open atmosphere consist of picnic tables outside under a covered area. I find that the food is very good. Burgers chicken fries. I can just have fries .. I think that they are excellent. They used to sale a whole fish that was divine. There are drinks , wine beer. They often play music and have live entertainment.. they typically close in late summer for winter.“

“Cool places. I'm into local dive bars and that's exactly what this place is but everyone there was pretty nice. The bartender Hector is a good buy and pretty funny as well. I will definitely go back to this bar when I am in the area. I definitely recommend it.“

“You get what you order in your glass. And you can't find a better imperial pint of Guinness around. The prices are right. Great place to go with friends for conversation and drinks. Plus they show all MLB, NFL, & NHL etc games.“

“CASH ONLY! No food served.

Loved this local bar — the vibe was friendly, open, and welcoming from the moment we walked in. The bartender was attentive, prices were decent, and the space was clean with a nice mix of high tables in the back and low tables up front. A handful of locals were gathered around the bar, which added to the charm.

We were really glad to find this spot especially when it started raining on the beach. It was a rainy Friday midday, not busy at all, and we genuinely enjoyed ourselves.

Definitely recommend stopping in for a drink. Looking forward to coming back whenever we’re in the neighborhood!“

“We were looking for a bar with good prices and relaxing atmosphere for some time with friends. This place did the trick.Breege was a friendly and good bartender. Our first time but the pours were good as were the prices. If we're ever in the area we will try it again.“

“Love it there. always a fun night“
