Excellent drinks and atmosphere! Love the vibe, and it's a little hidden gem in the midst of a very busy area.

Worst table/waitress in NYC. And the have nerve to automatically apply 20% gratuity to the bill. Shame on the Edison Hotel for allowing a place like this on their premissed

This is a fun little bar just off Times square. Laid back atmosphere with live music and strong drinks.

They played all the jams. It was a total vibe. Bartender was cute, fast and friendly, he also made yummy drinks. Will definitely be back tomorrow.

I was so excited to visit Rum House as I am a guest at the hotel attached. Atmosphere is great! It wasn’t busy so I picked a table and sat down. The server took my order and confirmed my seat I chose was ok when I asked. I took out my laptop to work (as I am traveling solo for business) and when she brought over my drink she told me I was not allowed to work. I would need to go elsewhere. Apparently this is in the menu that I didn’t notice. Ok, I said no problem and then she proceeded to escort me to another area that would be better suited since this was meant to be a “date spot.” I was then sat by door to back room by window. I quickly finished my drink and left. I’ve never felt so unwelcome in an establishment, let alone an establishment that had 20+ empty table for those on dates. When I asked the server if this was common for other restaurants in hotels she proceeded to say that no restaurant is meant for “work.” I’m still baffled by the disconnect and service.

The Rum House is a “must” when you’re in NYC. The drinks are amazing, the music is always on point. You can’t be in a hurry, especially on a weekend, but when you’re here, why would you want to hurry. Come in the doors, order a drink, and leave the real world behind.

The 20% mandatory tip does it for me 😞. I liked the music, the atmosphere, the cocktails were good but overpriced themselves. On top of that the 20% tip automatically applied to the bill, not disclosed anywhere beforehand which is not a good practice for a business like this 😕. The service was okay when the bartender wasn't busy chatting up with girl customers.
We were looking for something to do on our overnight trip to New York, we popped in around 11 PM and unfortunately couldn’t find a spot to sit. After waiting a few minutes outside, we noticed that a table had cleared up so we made our way back in and we were seated. Our server was attentive and kind, the drinks were spot on. I had an amaretto sour, it was one of the best I’ve had. We did not try any of the food on the menu as we just come from dinner.
The live music was a vibe. The atmosphere was perfect. As someone who has never been to New York before now, this place is exactly what I was hoping for. It feels, authentic New York. It was the exclamation to our night as we had just left the Broadway Theatre watching the Great Gatsby. Definitely worth the wait. Will be back!

I’ve been coming to the Rum House for many years and I love it. I love the atmosphere the drinks and the music. However, in the past there was a construction across the street. Now the scaffolding is gone and there is light coming in that feels like a baseball stadium! It takes away from the cozy, time traveling feeling I used to feel when coming here. I asked the waiter to close the shades and she refused. Honestly it doesn’t feel the same. .
Please fix this. Close the shades.

Such a fun atmosphere between the live music and great drinks! We came after seeing a show on Broadway and it was such a treat. Shout out to George who made our night serenading us!

Very nice people, highly accommodating, rum selection was off the hook. 50/50 shots are very interesting
