The Chanty is a staple and landmark for historical downtown Ithaca.Every visit here is chill and cheap.The ? sign is your signal to stop in and hang in an intimate place offering: darts, pool, and good ol juke player.Feels more local folk than college kids. A plus for us OG ithaca workers.It's been almost ~20 years since I started going . It was always the place to go after work drink and an '5 o'clock somewhere' place on a day off.The Chanty is an easygoing classic place to just have a drink with your friends.

There was no food except for chips to buy. So I don't know why it's asking me to review food. The bar is great. Feels like a hometown bar. The bartender and staff make you feel at home. A bartender even streams the bar on twitch under PorkMarshmallow so we chatted with people watching while we were there.

Good local bar with good standard drinks. Bartender made great drinks while handling a small crowd and bunch of college kids. Drinks were very reasonably priced, much better than other local bars on that block. Have a good pool table, and nice atmosphere.

Put over $30 in the jukeboxe and my songs never played! Usually on Monday and Tuesday night. I wouldn’t suggest this place of establishment for anyone

Home to meet I've been a loyal chanticleerian 4/5th of my life even earlier when my best friend and I would walk there and walk our parents home every Friday night.

Such a mixture of genres. Felt like it might have been more of a locals bar, but with a twist. Beer on tap was random. Not a fancy liquor establishment, but if you love to people watch like me, I definitely recommend!!

It's a typical 'dive' bar with a juke box and pool table.
Best dive in Ithaca. Hands down. College kids beware this is meant for locals.
A favorite dive bar
Awesome staff. A must do in Ithaca.
Great night of people and pool while sipping on drinks!
