This is a nice cozy and fun bar. Good happy hour with a good selection of drinks. Went on a Wednesday evening and it was packed!

Halloween night, it was hopping. Everyone was having a great time. Best for the younger crowd.

Absolutely appalling experience at Brass Monkey, and it all comes down to the bouncer with the strong African accent. His ignorance and rudeness are staggering. He turned away a member of our party, claiming that the star on their ID was suspicious. Seriously? Does he not understand that Real IDs in New York have a star on them?
It’s beyond comprehension that someone so clueless is working the door. When we rightfully questioned his judgment, he went off the rails, screaming at us like a wild animal. This level of unprofessionalism is unacceptable for a bar trying to maintain a decent reputation.
The owner needs to seriously reconsider having this individual on staff. His behavior is not just embarrassing but a liability. I can’t stress enough how poorly we were treated, and I will never return. If you value respect and professionalism, stay far away from this place!

It is an excellent bar !! Fantastic atmosphere!! The music is brilliant..great selection. We visited on Friday 3rd Oct at 12.30 in the afternoon. I could not say a bad word about this establishment. You HAVE to visit. We come to New York every year since 1996 and this bar is one of my favourite picks.

Loved that this bar had multiple levels and rooftop! Was really cool sitting outside on the roof on a nice night. Plenty of space for groups and a bar is on the rooftop so you dont need to walk downstairs. Was a really chill vibe liked here a lot!

The bartender was off-putting and unfriendly and it felt like she was intentionally watering down our drinks (I saw her pour other drinks quite heavy handed, and we were only one drink in so it was unrelated to excessive inebriation). Prices are okay but you’re paying for half a shot and a cup of ice and club soda for most of the mixed drinks. Crowd wasn’t too diverse but the DJ was fun. Not a dancing place necessarily and the crowd was a bit older (Thursday night). If the drinks were stronger and matched what you pay, and had more enthusiastic service, this place would be a hit! It has a good set up and lighting.
This is easily one of my favorite pubs in NYC in all respects — location, staff, interior, food…in no particular order. Whenever I’m in the meat-packing district, I head over for a beer and a quick bite. On my last visit I had a fish taco…one word: delectable!

Went to the rooftop on Monday night and was treated disrespectfully by one of the lady waitresses. I started asking her questions about the menu but she clearly did not care and would not even look at me. Her colleague did not bring us the beer we ordered from him and we had to go get it ourselves.
I literally tipped way too much (18%). I have had much better experiences in NYC where I tipped nothing or less, so I regret it even more that I tipped without receiving any service at all. For anyone coming here, tip after you have received your service, otherwise you might end up being treated in a way you do not appreciate.
However, the staff downstairs was really nice, including the bouncer.
Food is obviously overpriced for what you get, but considering the area where the bar is located, this is probably the norm.

Nice spot to stop by for a quick drink and a snack.
Ordered two drinks and the Guinness beer cheese with potato wedges.
The beer was a nice pour; the staff was very friendly. The potato wedges were cooked to perfection, and the cheese sauce was very tasty.

Spent good money to get treated shitty from the security guard. Needed to speak super politely to get out for a smoke
