50 Best Bars near Mount Vernon

“Amazing restaurant and bar! I was here on a Friday night celebrating a relatives birthday. The dj was on point, the bartender was nice and overall the staff was good. The food and rum punch was amazing and on point! I felt like I was back home in Jamaica eating the fish - full of flavor. I’ll definitely be back in the future.“

“Here's the review Spencer wrote for you: My family and I just visited to celebrate my grandsons birthday- we like to get a bunch of plates and share family style and this menu was perfect for that. You have to get mezze and extra bread (must try the kubane). We also ended up getting three orders of the shishbarak for the six of us, it is way too good! I got the salmon for my entree which was cooked to perfection and beautifully seasoned. Spencer our server recommended the silan and the cheesecake for dessert so we shared those and boy were they something special- I can’t pick a favorite! He brought us a candle and we got some great pictures. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.“

“Iconic and inspired Upper West Side Eatery/Music avenue. I love the live music there, they have it 6 nights a week! Really good food & cocktails as well! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼“

“It’s great place with very delicious pasta and artesanal pizza! 🍝🍕“

“Highly recommended. Very good food.“

“💥💥💥💥💥 Just discovered a gem! Can’t wait to return. Tucked in on Columbus Av. betw 106/107. Best Mexican food I’ve yet to find in the city. I had the fish tacos! Excellente! Also the best sangria. Our server, Carol, was wonderful. And she gave me a delicious flan desert and everyone sang happy birthday. Thank you Carol and everyone! See you soon!“

“As soon as I walk in, I got automatically seated at the bar by the host and Megan, my bartender gave me the menu (dinner and happy hour) with her warming customer service hospitality.

The interior of the bar is so dope with the neon light with television for sports. They also have a DJ booth for music. I will recommend people to check this place and enjoy their time in the scenery!“

“I tried to give this place the benefit of the doubt. The food is awful. Mozzarella sticks were frozen, Cajun fries, a handful of paprika drowned over the top Today beer that's normally $6 was $8 plus a $4 tip, tax and looking for another tip. Bill should have been $20 it's $30. Live with your wn failure. Don't put it on the customers. Pretty bartenders won't cover incompetence.“

“This place is a fun bar that plays wonderful retro throwbacks. Evan the bartender is the absolute best. I highly recommend you stop by for a drink if you're in the neighborhood. They have a wonderful selection of wine and beers that are constantly changing.“

“Birthday celebration for a friend and 13 others . Will be back again. Customer service outstanding. Atmosphere great. Had a wonderful time.“

“Delicious food, great service, amazing ambiance… Highly recommended!“

“This cozy restaurant has left me with the best impressions! Hospitable hosts, delicious food. It’s a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming and charming.“

“great place..attention to customers is second to none!“

“I went with a group of friends for my birthday last night. It was AMAZING. The service was great, everyone was so friendly. The place itself was so clean and cute, really cool vibe. The Apps were great, Hush Puppies and Fried Calamari, yum. I did a make-your-own Seafood Boil. OH MY GOD. The New Zealand Mussels, King Crab and Dungeness Crab was out of this world in the Cajun Butter Sauce. I HIGHLY recommend this spot and will be going back.“

“I came in for a drink with friends and still can’t get over how awesome our bartender was. Anna was wonderful. She made us the most amazing drinks and made the evening special! Our only complaint was that the bar’s marketing is so abysmal, it was my first time hearing about it.“

“Great Waterville nice vibes good food“

“It’s such a vibe here! Their happy hour is fire and super affordable. The food is good. And their beef empanadas are a 10/10. The slider and fries were a much bigger portion than I thought it would be so that’s another plus. For a Sunday, I didn’t expect a dj and great music but here they had both!“

“Had a great time at Dagim! The whole experience was excellent from start to finish. We got seated right away, had time to order, our food came out quickly, and it was amazing.

No one likes leaving a restaurant hungry after spending hundreds of dollars. At Dagim, we spent less than we would have at other places and left completely satisfied.“

“The Hamilton is a cozy, warm, bar with an excellent selection of whiskeys. The bartenders are very knowledgeable and will help you find the perfect cocktail for your tastes. Joe, one of the bartenders, also host a a rotating exhibition of different artists about once a month. You can get a perfect Manhattan and a piece of artwork for your livingroom. 😊“

“great local spot love it here“

“Come for the trivia stay because it's a really awesome place to be. E's Bar is preeeetttty awesome and quite a good size to be able to have a good time! The drinks are reasonably priced and the Tres Fish Tacos are BOMB. I appreciate the fact that they choose to be a sustainable bar with their LED lighting and purchasing of carbon offsets. It's hard for bars to reduce their environmental impact so any step matters. It always seems like everyone's having a good time here- not trashy at all, just a good neighborhood bar. And they have theme nights too which is fun.“

“did the work, bought the shirt! awesome space!!“

“The food was amazing. I highly recommend the Croque Madame. Lena was a spectacular server, we could not have asked for better.“

“There’s something to be said about customer service & hospitality! Sometimes sitting outside is a risk, but I’ve never had better service. Spencer was so sweet, kind, responsive, a gem! Dinner was amazing, reasonable prices, can’t wait to go back 🤌🏼“

“Loved my first experience here. Stopped in after shopping the town. Bartenders Tommy and Anthony were working and made incredible drinks. They were both very inviting and make you feel at home. I will be back to enjoy the atmosphere and great bartending skills.“

“Very nice service and selection. I am here 1nce a week or every other week. The Bartender is great and attentive without being overly so. Cheers!!“

“Came here on a rainy Sunday with the toddler. And as beer places should be, they were super chill and welcoming. Great beer list that skews more local than the other top beer bars in the city, which is refreshing AND leads to the list being things we don’t see (a definite win). 10/10 would recommend, which is what I’m doing right now.“

“very cute vibe and super kind waitstaff!! however if you have a bigger body at all, prepare to feel absolutely cramped. upon entering you literally have to squeeze behind everyone seated at the bar. its about a foot of space! then on the other side of the restaurant, the tables are packed so tightly together you will literally be touching legs with the folks next to you. and to make matters worse, theres one long booth for all the tables and its packed full with pillows! so now the pillows are occupying the already tight space to sit. i know restaurants in this city have to make the most of their square footage, but this one felt particularly compacted.“

“I come to Lucille’s almost everyday (except Mondays). Doesn’t matter if it’s breakfast, lunch or dinner, their food and drinks is always amazing, service is also great, the place is beautiful overall, Lucille’s one of those hidden gems in the area. I’d recommend the salmon burger & house salad, breakfast sandwich with sausage, wings, turkey sandwich, chicken sandwich, guava and chicken waffle, shrimp & grits. For drinks the spiced sangria , espresso martini, chai latte, sweet tea are great! They also have a good point system so if you go there often, like me, once in a while you’ll get a free drink.“

“Had a lovely breakfast indoors with our dear friends. We selected this restaurant because their is ample space between tables which is a rarity These days at the majority of the restaurants in New York City. Finally, what made our brunch very pleasant was the wonderful service we received from our waiter Nahid . Thank you Nahid. We look forward to returning soon.“

“Love it going back really soon“

“This is a great place for the younger and older crowd!! The food is great 👍“

“My sis and I came here for a quick bite and were pleasantly surprised at the happy hour and food specials. $6 espresso martinis and a $12 smash burger lunch special, so for $20 you can have quite a nice little lunch. The servers were great and checked in regularly to make sure we were good. We also appreciated what I think was the manager watching our drinks because at $6 a martini we had to have one more, yes, they were that good. We stood for maybe 2.5 hrs and left so happy with a full belly and new memories created. Definitely a cute little spot for a solo quick bite, a nice little date night that’s more on the casual side, or coming with a group of friends. While we came here for lunch during the week they did have other great food options available and weekend specials if that’s something of interest. The ambiance is sexy and grown and still has a sports bar vibe. It’s warm and inviting as well as cozy with the lighting. They have a fully stocked bar with 2 bars front and back. As mentioned earlier, they have daily and weekend specials for both food and drink. This place is definitely a must try and I will be coming back.“

“I took a chance yesterday morning to stop by here before handling something challenging. I was greeted with compliments on my fashion, great baristas and equally great coffee. I was told life is to be celebrated. Well, I celebrate you and this great coffee cafe. You made my day.“

“Katherine and Nicole were superb. My coworkers and I came to Jaleo to enjoy the happy hour and to celebrate two of my coworkers birthday. Nicole and Katherine took good care of us and I recommend anyone in the New Rochelle area to pass by to Jaleo for a good time !“

“This is a lovely spot for a quick bite or a drink! Keep in mind on weekdays their bar is not open until 4pm and so it's only the coffee side. The coffee side is self service, including bussing your own plates. But the place is calm, quiet, friendly, and the chopped salad I ordered with fried chicken was quite tasty. (Would def order that again).“

“Came here with my partner, the vibes here were amazing, the appetizers were really good, I recommend trying the honey restated wings. Liz was our waitress, she was so nice, made sure we got everything we need. Would come here again. The rum punch is SOO GOOD!!!“

“Amazing food and a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels like a little slice of Puerto Rico! The flavors are authentic, and every bite takes me right back to my island. The owners have poured so much love into the new location, beautifully painting different stories that showcase the rich history of Puerto Rico. Their dedication to creating a welcoming environment is evident in every detail. I also deeply respect how involved they are with the community—it’s inspiring to see a business so committed to making a positive impact. Highly recommend!“

“so great! the french fries are amazing and it’s so calming and welcoming. all the food looks so delicious, and the ginger beer is to dieeee for! 😉😍😍😊 if you’re in the harlem area, it’s a must try, and you cannot skip.“

“Great Food, friendly and prompt service definitely coming back here the next visit to New York! This is a must stop especially if you have your furry family member with you🐶 Love Love Love all the puppy pictures.“

“Great food and drinks Great atmosphere. Professional staff.“

“In one sentence, Rough Draft is truly a “place to come in from the cold”. This place makes me want to write a book.

Easily some of the coziest and warmest vibes and aesthetics I’ve see in a bar in a long, long time. Very reasonable prices (plus a nice happy hour) and it really feels so classy and chic, yet not without heart and character. It’s a beautiful space with grand wall-length windows that look particularly whimsical with the bit of snow and frost left over from last night. The Christmas decorations in particular are very lovely. It’s in a beautiful part of the neighborhood, too! I love to see Hamilton Place growing like this.

The cask ale is such a fun touch, too - and they’ve got a very intentional and strong selection of draft beers, whiskeys, bourbons, and more. Great service and chill staff.

All in all, I think this makes a strong case to be one of my favorite bars in the city. I’ve only taken a few sips of my beer and felt compelled to write this. I only hope this place thrives like it deserves to as a member of the outstanding Uptown Bar community!“

“best pints of Guinness good.people.“

“Date night favorite spot. Great foods, drinks, music and positive vibes!!! Love it here“

“Ottime birre. Proprietario/staff molto gentili. Prezzo in linea con Manhattan. 👍“

“All of the above, great place for sure!!“
