What do you expect for midtown NUC, it’s expensive, drinks are OK. We went for a friend’s special occasion, probably wouldn’t go on our own. It’s too far west without much around.

Fun time with friends. Porchlight always makes exceeds expectations. We sat and immediately were greeted by our server. Promptly took our drinks order, our server also recommended drinks that were popular and those drinks did not disappoint. Afterward, we ordered some food, I ordered the chips and salsa, street corn croquettes, and sliders to start. Every single dish was delicious. As the night went along, and it got a little crowded, service lagged a bit. Overall experience was incredible, we will be back soon. Thank you for everything.

This was the first time going with my significant other. Let’s start with the services . There could have been more waiters. As far as serving water, it came lukewarm in a jug. Two glasses with no ice. It should have came with ice. Now let’s start with the food, The sliders were very well seasoned. However, the meat Could have been a little thicker and also cooked medium well . There was more bun than meat. Let’s start with the french fries. They were undercooked. The majority of the french fries were not done. I didn’t want to send the food back because I do not want to risk anyone playing with my food. The five dollar punch drink was amazing ! And last, but not least everyone loves a good Buffalo wing. When I asked the waiter, did they serve wings, He replied no because it was more of a Cajunspot. In New Orleans, what do you think they are known for? PoBoys, Dirty rice, Gumbo, And last, but not least Cajun fried chicken ! When you go to a bar, the first thing you expect is having a wing with fries and a drink. I feel like they need to add wings to the menu. Overall, the atmosphere was nice. And the music they were playing was current and up-to-date. If you get some wings in there, you will be the best bar ever.

This was such a cute spot! I loved the theme and how thoughtfully they carried it throughout the space. It really made for a fun atmosphere. It’s the kind of place that feels cool, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the moment.
The food itself was decent, and the prices seemed fair for the area. While it might not be somewhere I’d go just for the food, it’s definitely a spot I’d return to for the overall experience. I could easily see myself coming back with a group of friends to hang out, share some laughs, and enjoy a few drinks. It’s one of those places that just works well for catching up and making memories. I'm looking forward to visiting again at some point.
The only reason I’m giving the atmosphere a 4/5 stars is bc of the questionable location (I kind of like it) but many would not. I think everything else about this spot is absolutely perfect!

Nice bar food and drinks. Great staff, but unfortunately our server was lackluster and inattentive.

First time spending NYE at a bar in NYC and I must say, I had an absolute blast. Porchlight is such a VIBE, the staff was awesome, the food was great, everything was perfection. Can’t wait to create more memories at Porchlight.
