The Library Bar Reviews
I love a curt New York attitude, and I know some people mistake New York charm for apathy. I can say the bartenders here are genuinely some of the rudest customer service people I have met at any restaurant in my life. A quick search of this bars reviews tells me they have an intrinsic problem and not a few bad apples. I will be reaching out to Marriott and getting them involved, as I know the Sheraton brand is associated with a much higher quality. Certainly you have lost my...read full review
Service is excellent. Stayed here 4 days and used our credit for various items.
Wait staff was a 5
The prices are outrageous no doubt. $11 for a beer?? Typical for NYC but nonetheless outrageous
It’s a hotel bar, it does the job.

The service was subpar and the bartenders were rude. They added auto grat on our bill which only consisted of drinks (and it is not mentioned on the menu that they will take auto grat on drinks, only on food).

The Library Bar is a convenient and comfortable option for those attending shows at the nearby Joe's Pub. Located right upstairs, the bar offers cozy seating, including "the comfiest bar seats" some reviewers have ever experienced. The menu features reasonably priced options, with one visitor enjoying the non-alcoholic beer served in a tall glass.
While not extraordinary, the Library Bar is a solid choice for a quick meal, especially for hotel guests. The atmosphere can be a bit dark in the evenings, and the views are described as unexciting. Service has been mixed, with some staff coming across as brusque, while others, like Kelvin, have provided attentive and caring service.
The food has received positive reviews, with visitors praising the wings and fries. The restaurant is generally clean and can get quite busy, especially when shows are happening at Joe's Pub. However, some have noted issues with long wait times for drinks.
Overall, the Library Bar provides a convenient and comfortable option for those looking to grab a bite or a drink, though the experience may vary depending on the staff and timing of the visit.
