“I had such a wonderful experience at Royale. First it has an awesome bar and restaurant indoors and the space outdoors is beautifully decorated. I have celiac disease and they had the most delicious gluten free nachos (made on site) ever! They were perfect. I was so happy I could have them and they were excellent! Great atmosphere and food! Highly recommend when in the Village.“

“Great place for a drink and good food. Lovely staff, good atmosphere…..love it“

“Madame Mikettes was busy so we came here for post-happy hour bites. Food was great. Cocktails were great but the highlight of our night was Edina. She was so warm, so welcoming, so professional. We didn't have to wait a minute too long for service, she was able to make recommendations on food and drinks and she brought me dessert before dinner (a commitment to myself post-cancer). She handled our big group effortlessly and I would come back just to see her again. Definitely recommend this place and Edina specifically!!“

“it was fun to be here i enjoyed so much.“

“Roger is awesome! Formula 1 races are on whenever there is one.“

“This place rocks … Blake and Jack know how to make a nice inviting bar ! They’ve done it for years“

“Great Brunch! Fun time, awesome vibe!“

“We popped in here after a long walking day for a drink.
The next day after attending a Yankee game we were looking for a place to eat and we returned so we could enjoy the food as well.
Not disappointed. It was a great meal and very comfortable place.“

“Great beer selection. Great staff. Good vibe. Good people. I am a native New Yorker and very picky about my bars and defensive of my neighborhood. This is the best bar I’ve been to in years. I only wish I’d discovered it sooner.“

“Great Staff.... Excellent Food...“

“sometimes really fun good time...however if Nicole doesn't like you or is having a bad day stay clear!, but it's part of her charm I guess. eh try it out it's a absolute dive bar environment, the surrounding neighborhood has alot going on too, so u can make a day out of it. ✌️“

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

“great food, great staff not to be missed“

“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.“

“Best Ethiopian cuisine I’ve had outside of Ethiopia! Service was great, atmosphere was vibrant, live music, open mic, poetry this place has it all!“

“fun place.............................“

“chill spot. nice bartender. good music.“

“Wunderbar! Sehr empfehlenswert!!!“

“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“

“Don’t think twice …go checkout this local gem! Not fancy, but warm, cozy, oh so friendly staff and amazingly affordable. Our bartender/server KP was a rare find.“

“GMT Tavern is a true Village gem. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, the staff is attentive, and the food and drinks are consistently excellent. Whether you’re stopping in for a casual drink or settling in for a full meal, it always feels like the perfect neighborhood spot.“

“Hotel was a wonderful boutique hotel. Room was very clean, quiet and comfortable. Location was perfect for us as we had a show at The Beacon. Plenty of great restaurants nearby. Small convenient bar on 1st floor of hotel. We will definitely return when visiting NYC again.“

“Excellent food, great service and staff and very nice atmosphere.“

“Just had a fantastic meal at The Laurels in NYC! The smash burger was incredible—juicy and perfectly cooked, with all the right toppings. And their lavender spritz? So refreshing! But the best part was our server, Ben. He was super attentive and made the whole experience even better. If you go, definitely ask for him!“

“Natalie the bartender! Nuff said.“

“Harmony our waitress was awesome, this place has the feel like you are in your home town.“

“Found this absolute gem of a place when looking for an authentic dive bar in NYC. What can I say, this place has it all. Jamie and Reggie are possibly the most chill bartenders in NYC with an amazing eye for making people feel welcome.

The bar has plenty of regulars who swing by many times a week. The customers are mostly between the age of 21–35, which definitely makes David's a good spot to make new friends. It doesn't really matter if you're looking for a cool place to hang out with a friend or traveling by yourself. Just sit at the bar, you'll be having a conversation in no time. The domestic beers are 5$, so a steal in that regard too.

Will sure visit again when I make it back to NYC from Finland.“

“The band, The Gyst were fantastic. They are a professional band, sound great, and I drove 3 hours to hear them play. The place and people loved them, I would suggest having them play at your establishment more often. The food was also phenomenal.“

“They also have awesome drinks.“

“Max, the bartender, is one of the nicest and most welcoming people I've ever met. I was there with about 8 coworkers and he made us all feel welcomed. Max is one of a kind and we all cannot wait to be back because of him.

Thank you for a great hospitality Max!“

“First time there and it was a fun time!“

“We needed someplace close prior to attending the Haunted Soiree at 60 Pine St. I had a Swiss and mushroom burger with their outstanding French fries. It was all a very good choice.“

“Not a bad place to people watch and grab a drink or lunch. It’s pretty cheap by NY standards and has a good atmosphere. I have the cheeseburger sliders and she asked if I wanted to add fries, I said yes, but it added $5 for the fries and there was like a $2 portion of them on the side. The sliders were good though. It’s also not a fast lunch stop.“

“Came here on a hot September afternoon and got a table right away. Our waitress was so friendly! We shared the Santa Fe chicken wrap in a spinach tortilla — absolutely delicious. The sweet potato fries were crisp and perfect with honey mustard for dipping. I had a mule, and it was the ideal refreshing drink. Such a great spot for a light, tasty midday lunch!“
