12 Best Pubs near Island Park

“Surprised this place has been open a few years now & I never had a clue they existed! Is it under new ownership, management? Loved the music on Sunday will definitely be back on a sunday. My friends came another day and left immediately. They said there was a band. They said there should have been a sign on the door for people 50 years and up. No thank you!“

“Neighborhood bar / pubThe Newbridge Inn has been kicking it for a long time now and it has a faithful following of locals that keep the place rocking.Been here a number of times over the years and well, never had a bad experience.Great drinks and bartenders and better than average food are available at the bar.The unexpected and ridiculously good white pizza w onions was a most pleasant surprise- who would have expected such a delight from a place where the typical app is wings or nachos?There is some outdoor space in the rear and the only downside to the place is that parking can be hard to come by - you'll have to park directly on busy Jerusalem ave.Definitely give it a shot - worth a trip just for the pizza“

“The Broadway Tavern is a place tucked away in Malverne and is a great place for people to meet and socialize. They have many different events every week to keep everyone happy. The outdoor garden is a hidden gem where you can hold family gatherings and have a great time. They have great entertainment on weekends and provide the best in service. Malverne should be pleased to have such a great establishment!“

“Tonight I got to hang out with a very, VERY old friend, in our old neighborhood.That was fantastic!As a bonus, our positively lovely young bartender ("Kat"), in addition to providing handsome pours of delicious single malt scotch, was also studying for her pilot's license, so we got to geek out on that!What is splendid night!Seriously, Kat is a Treasure. I got to see how she made other patrons feel Cherished, and it NEVER made me feel it was just for tips.She's the Real Deal“

“The wings are banging and the sandwiches are a good size so make sure you're hungry. Plus they have mozzarella sticks and corn poppers that everyone loves. And the drinks flow great. Very friendly atmosphere and great place to have a party.“

“Our GO TO pub in Baldwin. It's like walking into Cheers Bar - everyone knows your name and you are greeted with a hug and a smile. Shay is just the BEST and the staff is simply amazing. We love watching games, listening to the bands and playing trivia on Thursday night. Just a GREAT hometown place to hang!!!“

“This was my first visit to JPs. I thought it was great! Nice place to sit and unwind. I played a little Quick Draw and drank my drink. Mind u not shy with the alcohol. The bartender Luisa was just the sweetest woman! U could tell she really loves her job. Very attentive and accommodating. I also tried their food. I had fried zucchini sticks and mild buffalo wings. They came out piping hit, watch your mouth, lol. Luisa makes the marinara for the zucchini sticks. Delicious!! Also the night I was there they had live rap performances from local rappers, that was fun too. All and all I would recommend JPs to anyone looking for a great night out! I will definitely go again. They also make pizza, gotta go back at least to try that. Thanks to Luisa for making my first night out in a long time a great one!!“

“Stopped by today to have a drink while my wife was at dentist. An old and quaint neighborhood bar that reminded me of a place I frequented years ago. There was a fellow that asked my name and bought me a drink. Don't know his name but he was drinking Jameson with an oj on the side. Cheers to you.“

“I'm a huge fan of small town bars. Love this place and the Vibes it carries with it. Something about uncommercialized bars that I love. They have a pool table which isn't the best but definitely does the job. Pool is $2 a game. They have cheap beers in tap and also had UFC on which is a huge plus.“

“Great food and drinks. The presentation of the dishes are also very appealing. The staff is professional and thoughtful. The music is also a good volume as you can still talk and hear it. TVs are on at the bar for entertainment as well. Clean bathroom and overall establishment. Management is visible and the vibe is cool.“

“Where to start? Shines is hands down the best bar in the West End! Staff is great; always available for a conversation a laugh and a good time. The reason for me writing this post is to appreciate the level of care and concern for safety of all patrons that the staff has. I won't write out the entire thing, but on one occasion I was being followed/had someone not leave me alone. Mike, Tom and (another) Mike made sure that the guest left and kept me safe while he was leaving. They made sure that the unruly guest didn't see me leave or follow me, and got him to leave me alone while I was at the bar. Its great to see a group of people that put the safety of their guests at the forefront of their business even if it is a busy Sunday Night. Also, drinks are on point, and while they don't serve food, they are always open to you ordering/eating outside food at the bar while you have a drink!“

“Calvin's the man! Even gave me a free shot here and there once for the kitchen taking too long with my order and another over conversations about life. Easy to talk to, he's a real people person. Karaoke night really gets the place going- the lady on the bc DJ booth plays great music, she knows her audience. I recommend the empanadas and the pretzels“
