“After 10 years second trip back to New York and despite the time difference on Guinness number four at 3am. Great pub, Great Guinness, and great staff. Really busy on a Monday night. Def come here. You won’t regret it.“

“I have very fond memories here, it was like a little home from home for me while I was bi Atlantic for 6 years, working on the same block as the Pig There are lots of “Irish pubs” in the vicinity, although this is the only one that felt like a real pub in the UK rather than a novelty in New York Hopefully I will be back again one day! Thanks for great times when I was missing home 🇬🇧 xxx“

“The Dead Poet Bar on the Upper West Side is a cozy, literary-themed spot with a great atmosphere. The dark wood, bookish quotes on the walls, and dim lighting create an inviting space perfect for casual drinks. Their cocktail menu, especially the namesake "Dead Poet" with Jameson and ginger ale, is creative and affordable for Manhattan.

Though small and often crowded, especially on weekends, the laid-back vibe and friendly bartenders make it worth a visit. Whether you're a literary fan or just looking for a great neighborhood bar, The Dead Poet is a gem you'll want to return to.“

“Great food, friendly staff and efficient service, highly recommended“

“This place throws rocks at other bars. Get a Margret in Mexico or four while you wait for your train, you ain’t gonna regret it. We loved being able to hang here while we waited for the not-so-bullet train to take us back to the city of brotherly shove. Loved it.“

“Generally I only come here for brunch, the food measures between fine to good. The full English breakfast slaps. The service is chill yet superb. Dog friendly! and a great spot to escape the annoying crowd of social media colonizers. Probably my favorite sports bar yet I don’t follow sports.“

“Top notch service/experience“

“Great bar, great food. Love the owner! He went out of his way to make us feel welcome. So festive for Christmas.“

“This is an absolute gem of a place. Great venue for watching sport, especially Arsenal. Staff are absolutely amazing, so friendly and efficient. Highly recommend visiting here.“

“Out of all the bars in the area, The Quays Pub has a certain vibe that can only be described as quaint and tranquil. There is something homely and calming about this place that makes you feel relaxed while you drink. The prices aren't bad and the staff make you feel like you have been a regular for years.“

“Best bartenders in town. Feels like home. Always a friendly welcome... the atmosphere is always positive and you always will have a smile. Plus great happy hour deals and music..:“

“Looking for an old-school midtown Manhattan bar with martinis, beer, and friendly staff? P.J. Carney’s Pub is the real deal. I’ve stopped in wearing professional clothes after client meetings and also in dance gear after class… either way, it’s relaxed and welcoming. So few bars in Midtown feel this easy. The wings are great, the drinks are strong, and the vibe is no-nonsense. In a city full of overpriced hype, this hidden gem near the N/W subway line stands out as one of the best neighborhood bars in Manhattan.“

“Ordered the scones off idea HONY in 2021…waited almost year for the scones to arrive in Texas…forgotten about the scones-was happy to gift the $$$ to help in their life journey. Absolutely delicious!! Now it is 2024 & scones have been reordered! Best $$ ever spent❤️“

“I was at Wicked Monk for a party and the accommodations were very nice.
Cool atmosphere, nice decor, clean and the food was very good. Decent drink selection and the valet parking was slow but if I didn’t need to drive I would go back.

Kid-friendliness: They have high chairs and enough space for your bags

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs“

“An Irish Gem in NYC. Fantastic atmosphere, Welcoming and authentic. Rambled in and stayed on. Highly recommended. Great selection of Irish beers. Fantastic staff and will be back again soon.“

“Great service and great hospitality- Dolores was super“

“Took a min to get a drink but that's because the place was packed but a bartender walked past me but didn't stop at me and went to someone else. I had to wait for another bartender but once I got a drink, it was a good drink. The atmosphere is very lively and active. Good conversation with people and live music. Definitely going back soon!“

“Mazum is the best! I love this place! Every time I visit the city I always come here. Mazum treats me like family! Great quality food and amazing drinks. Service with a smile and always great.“

“Las hamburguesas Woodside exquisitas, bien servidas y con ganas de comerse dos... Muy buen servicio además... Ah, y para completar, cerveza...“

“I was looking for a new karaoke bar to attend. I found out Shillelagh Tavern is an active venue for shows, open mic jamm sessions and karaoke. I went there on a Saturday night on karaoke night. It's starts a bit late. At 11:30 pm you can start picking your songs. I like the crowd. There were a lot of good singers. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. The bar itself is also
great. They have a great selection of beers and well drinks. All the bartenders I dealt with were
professional and quick to attend to me. I recommend this lovely little off the beaten path watering hole. They don't sell food there, but they hold the menus for several take out places on the block. You can order from the menu and they will deliver it to you.“

“Great food, great atmosphere, great service, love it.“

“Scallywags NYC thank you for the most amazing experience, great beer 🍺 great company, amazing bar staff (Katherine 😀) and we had the pleasure of meeting the owners who were very welcoming and even bought us a drink 🍺🗽🍀 💯 recommended 😀“

“Love the time at PMC. Justin is awesome!! Great fried banana 🍌“

“Great experience!!! I been here a year or so and never forgot the great service I received before from Niall! Walked in today and there he was in a great mood even tho his football team didn't make the playoffs (Seahawks) like my squad the damn Giants! But great and convenient spot to check out. A pool table is available too; that's what got me before. Glad I stopped through and my Irish brother was there! I don't think they serve food here but the atmosphere is great and chill.“

“Love this place! Very much a local Irish joint. Nice loud music and great service with a smile. Reasonably priced, young, fun-loving crowd. Visit if you're in the area. Open till the early hours of the morning at the weekends from what i understand.“

“Had the opened-faced hot beef sandwich with mashed potatoes, smothered in gravy. It was delicious. The beef was tastey and so tender, like my grandma used to make.“

“Great place to watch sports and excellent bar wings and burgers“

“Let's go people ! it's been open for months now, time to come home to a good pint of Guinness or Narangansett and some Pork Tenderloin with mash. G&T with bangers and mash... Just come and see Moira !“

“Io e la mia compagna abbiamo visitato New York come turisti per una settimana, abitando a Guttenberg poco distante da questo pub. Qui ci siamo trovati a nostro agio, e accolti nonostante arrivassimo dall'Italia e il mio inglese sia abbastanza scarso. Un saluto a Tiffany, che abbiamo incrociato un paio di volte e ci ha anche offerto da bere. Sei la migliore!!“

“Great place for a quick bite after climbing.

It's your usual bar food, quite big portions. Free popcorn, and sometimes sour gummy.

Had the chicken cutlet burger. Slightly overcooked but still juicy and delicious.

The bartender is super friendly and helpful.“

“Had a wonderful pre-theater dinner here last night. The restaurant has a very cool, comfortable vibe. Our waiter Liam provided exceptional, attentive service. And the food - can't say enough about the shepherds pie. Savory and satisfying, especially on one of the first brisk fall days in the city. We will be back and you should try it too!“

“Had the most incredible experience with James and his team. We wanted to have a going away party and after reaching out to numerous places with hefty minimums we decided to stop by and ask James if we could host it at Phil Hughes. He was super accommodating and reserved a whole area for us. He was attentive all night and made sure everyone was taken care of. We love this bar and highly recommend them for either hosting an event as well as just enjoying a good Guinness while watching a sports game. Lovely atmosphere and vibe too!“

“Great staff, Great service, Great prices, always friendly and the security is always on point to make sure you are safe and comfortable.“

“First time at Mulligans. Great atmosphere and enjoying the Guineas. YNWA“

“I love the atmosphere at Parnell’s. It is warm and inviting. The menu is extensive and the service is fabulous!“

“The Food. The surroundings.“

“Great place for a drink and the regulars are amazing“

“I enjoyed the entire experience from first bite to last. Everything meets a high bar. Restaurant staff provide excellent service while understanding their menu. The restaurant suits both casual meals and single diners. I want them to expand their customer base.“

“After reading several reviews about this place, I decided to stop in for brunch. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the bartender/server Micah, and I was seated immediately. Even though the place is small, it has a real charm to it.

I ordered the cheeseburger, and it was perfectly cooked and flavorful. The fries were good, too, but a bit on the crispy side. The bartender makes a really good Bloody Mary as well to accompany my meal.

They have a good food (brunch) and drinks menu and everything is priced reasonably. Since the weather is still warm, they also have seating outside.

Overall, this restaurant is such a nice little addition to the Windsor Terrace neighborhood, and I look forward to dining here again in the future.“

“My favorite local spot! They don't make them like this anymore! The bartenders are attentive and friendly, the drinks are cheap, and they have a pool table and dart board. Love that I can play whatever music I want with the internet jukebox.
The atmosphere is quintessentially Irish – cozy, unpretentious, and full of character. It’s the kind of place where you can relax and enjoy good company. Whether you’re there for a quick drink or a long night, we always have a great time.
Support small business and give them a try!“
