About The Upside Bar

The Upside Bar on the Upper West Side offers a unique dive bar experience with a touch of elegance. The bar is always clean, with perfectly made drinks and a surprising selection of beers, including great beers on draft and a very decent beer selection both on tap and canned. The staff is friendly, attentive, and efficient, with fantastic service that makes guests feel welcome. While the decor might be unconventional, the cozy vibe, multiple TVs showing sports, and relaxed couch seating in a corner create a fantastic spot for a night out or a small group meet-up. The highlight of this bar is the karaoke nights, with talented bartenders and DJs creating a fun and entertaining atmosphere for guests to enjoy singing along with a great group of regulars. An absolute gem of a neighborhood pub, it’s a highly recommended go-to spot on the Upper West Side.

In my neighborhood The Upside Bar is full of great vibes , it’s a great place to have a beer or cocktails. The bartenders are really cool as are the regulars. It’s a cool crowd , great atmosphere and conversation.

There’s something about a neighborhood bar, you know it when you’re there. This is a perfect space with enough room to bring friends but not too large. Great sociable bartenders. Also a professional note, we were there for Knicks Spurs NBA finals and this was one of the rare bars that actually staffed appropriately for the packed bar. So sick of most places having the bare minimum staff and waiting 20 minutes for a drink. Finally a bar that understands everyone will...read full review
