“My new neighborhood bar! Great staff. Reasonable drink priced. Great music!“

“Excelente!!
⭐ I love this bar! ⭐ It’s super close to me, and they have 🎱 pool table, 🎲 board games, 🎯 darts, and comfy seating—even a 🛋️ sofa-style chair where I can lie back, relax, and put my feet up after a long day. 🍹 The bar has two distinct areas for drinking, which I find special:

✅ At the entrance, there’s a quiet, relaxed space perfect for unwinding. Here, Sam, one of the bartenders, provides excellent service. He’s usually there on Fridays, and his good vibes and kindness really stand out. Thanks, Sam! 🙌

✅ In the back, there’s a livelier atmosphere where they host 🎤 karaoke events, 🎭 stand-up comedy, and 🎂 birthday parties. There's also a 🎶 music machine to play your favorite songs and the 🎱 pool table for some fun. In this area, Carlos, the bartender, is always working with some girls, making sure everyone’s having a great time and keeping the party vibe alive. Thanks, Carlos! 🍻

🎙️ Tuesday nights are for Open Mic/Stand-up Comedy, and Wednesdays are Karaoke Night. The place has a great vibe and a chill, welcoming atmosphere. 🎉

Long story short: Whether you’re in the mood to relax or party—whatever your vibe is—this is the place to be! 📺 I also noticed they have TVs, but I’m not sure if they show ⚽ soccer games. I’ll ask next time. 🙏

Special shoutout to the owner, Alfred, who always makes sure I have free popcorn when I’m there! 🍿 ⭐ Five stars from me for Teddy Bar! ⭐“

“Punk for ever! Good beer! Good peoples! 7x24!“

“#AmazingBar #BroadwayDive 🥰“

“Great local place with very good entertainment. Love the bartenders!“

“All of the above, great place for sure!!“

“I came here after finding this location on Instagram with “The Brunch Guy”. I must say that this place is amazing! The drinks are equally on point as the food and service!

The ambiance was awesome and I want to make a special note to the following team members who made the visit truly pleasurable. From “Nancy” the bartender to both servers “Ally and Natalie”. They made the experience really enjoyable and I’m definitely looking forward to coming back and seeing them all again!

Definitely recommend the Sunday Brunch, but I’d honestly love to meet the chef / kitchen staff because they in conjunction with the awesome bartenders & servers really make this place come alive!!

SCP highly recommend!!! Enjoy!!!“

“Need friends, real blunt but loving ones? Come here.
This is a gritty but welcoming Pub that will show you what a drinking hole is, not pretentious.

The people make this establishments what it is and the bar keeps are even better. Different crowds at different times, great balance.“

“great place to have some good company.“

“I bring my team here for post fight celebrations since it is located right around the corner from Melrose Ballroom. They can accommodate our group size, have great bar food, there’s Guinness on tap, pickles backs and friendly bartenders. What more can you ask for?!“

“great ambiance, lots of different beers. highly recommend.“

“What an awesome spot. Felt like I was in the basement of some 70s sitcom character. Truly one of the best curated atmospheres of any dive bar I’ve been to in the city! Also, gotta love the super affordable drinks in a not-so-affordable part of Manhattan.“

“Rafe is awesome. What a lovely guy, put up with me and my partner for longer than he should have had to. Made the last day of our first holiday to New York great xx“

“Update 07022025 approximately 230 to 430pm.
Dog friendly bar need I say more? Yes. What is so important? The fact that no one said a word when Bailey joined me on cushioned bench in the primo booth. And we both appreciated the ample window picturing Amsterdam avenue business, like tv to her, she told me.

Bartender did his job cool and proper by leaving us alone to nurse my beer and our water. We will be back.“

“BOAT BOAT BOAT BOAT ! I go there on Tuesdays. Bartend is amazing, she plays the best music and great shows/movies on the tv.
My fav dive/ unpretentious bar. Even if it’s far from me I still go because of how well I’m welcomed there.“

“#AmazingBar #Dive75NYC 🥰“

“Great place for a quick bite after climbing.

It's your usual bar food, quite big portions. Free popcorn, and sometimes sour gummy.

Had the chicken cutlet burger. Slightly overcooked but still juicy and delicious.

The bartender is super friendly and helpful.“

“Great dive bar with a pool table and 2 dart boards and great music

Wheelchair accessibility: You can wheel right in don’t have to worry about any stairs the bathroom is tight might struggle a little but overall the place has plenty of room to move around“

“What a great find when we visited NYC! We are already planning our next trip to the city just to come back.“

“Had a great time hanging at 101 for the 7 year anniversary. The skate videos were top tier, the bevvies were flowing, and the dj was killing it all night from a range of old school to current music playing all night until the party got too big and we all had to leave!“

“Great local Irish bar. I was staying a week at a nearby hotel and this place had the exact Irish bar feel I needed. I instantly felt like a regular they were glad to see, coming and going. Proper for an Irish place. Good pours on the beers. I was here for the first 2016 Presidential Debates and there was a lot of opinions, but in true NYC style, nobody got bent, no matter how much of a (&%$g idiot the other person was.“

“#ItsallboutLOVE ...! The best most awesome place to be in destin florida... great atmosphere! Great music � great vibes ....;)) � also the crews really go out of their ways ... to make sure your experience at #Duckduck is an amazing time you will hold your special memories forever.... !“

“One of the best local bars in Williamsburg. Clem’s is perfect for a low key drink with your significant other or a rowdy night with friends and co-workers. Their drink prices won’t crush your bank account and the relaxed, laid back vibe will have you feeling like you’re partying in your best friends home without any of the cleanup. The bartenders are all professional and welcoming. Their outdoor seating on the front and side of the bar make for excellent people watching.“

“Sundays are truly Fundays! Great music and Solid Drinks fair priced. Look forward to the repeat sessions.“

“Im assuming this was formerly the Bar called, "Blanchards". My husband and i haven't been there in years, like 25 years! We had no idea the bar still existed and im so glad! Good memories😊“

“This was the last bar I drank at before sheltering in place. I came alone, waiting for my girlfriend to come home from work. I'd worked up a sweat, having stuffed my backpack with potatoes and cans of tuna from a grocery store several blocks away. I'd then wandered for several blocks in search of a place to have a drink and unwind for an hour or two. I was glad to find a dive to rest at. A cold drink really hit the spot. It's a day I remember more vividly than most. There was a certain giddiness in the air, the anticipation that something novel and unprecedented was coming our way very soon. It was a strange and special feeling, one that will always be tied to this place. It was a fine bar to have a drink at before the world changed forever.“

“Definitely a fun bar to hang out in and the staff was very personable. The drinks were decently priced and there were plenty of places to sit and space out between groups. The only drawback is the overly loud music at some points which can make conversation difficult.“

“A lovely tavern with jovial staff and delightful libations. The handsome and sweet bartender with interesting hair masterfully guided my wife and I through the extensive drink menu and delivered me to a few tasty cocktails. Cool and quirky atmosphere. I love this bar.“

“Was there yesterday after a 27 year hiatus. This was my go to place when I was at NYU MED. My friends and I would always comment on the great service, and best Jukebox…EVER! Where else can you hear Joy Division, Ramones, Lou Reed, and Suicide… Brought back great memories… I’m glad it is still gracing Alphabet City.“

“The best dive in the area. This is the type of place I long for in NYC and Brooklyn. Straightforward service, great atmosphere, and the addition of I Like Food just takes it over the top, everything there is delicious and their waitress is consistently the friendliest person in the city and always makes my day better.“

“Go-to neighborhood spot that stays until relatively late.
6 stars for service and specifically Paolo- always polite, smiling and great service
-2 stars for the bouncers: poor attitude, rude with the illusion that they have authority. It would be great if they can get real; ID reading barely makes them different that the rest of us - haha
5 stars for the beer: great draft and bottled variety
5 stars for the music!

Overall 4 stars, just because the bouncers kill the vibe.“

“Great local "dive" bar lol. Good atmosphere, pool table, dart board, jukebox, TVs, bar area and tables. Nicole was a great bartender. Not over crowded, but enough people there that y has some life. We don't go out that often anymore, but it's good to have a local watering hole in the neighborhood when we do.“

“This is a cocktail program for people who loves and appreciates a drink that takes into consideration the nuances of flavor. The Freezer Martini rivals and beats the Cold Pizza from DCP. The team loves their job, what they do and it’s clear in how much they appreciate their patrons. Come here, and enjoy the great atmosphere and conversation over some of the best cocktails I’ve had.“

“One of the most unique dive bars i’ve ever been to in my life. Heavy metal playing. Pickled hardboiled eggs with pretzels ? Coffee thing drink was fire in a classic cup. Drinks were cool in goblin glasses. Def would stop here for an experience to show someone.“
