50 Best Bars near Rye

“This place is an amazing “Staycation”. Anna Maria runs an amazing experience. The vibe is awesome, everyone is super friendly. There’s a happiness energy that is contagious. Great wine and food selections. Santos is an extremely attentive waiter with great recommendations. It’s like Rye’s version of Cheers. The live band brings everyone together. Bravo Anna Maria.“

“Think of the last time you were in some little beach town or ski village and stumbled on a totally non-contrived bar that only the locals know about. Now imagine that bar was plucked right out of that place and put in the middle of Rye. That's The Pub. It's a hole-in-the-wall dive bar that's perfectly out of place in Rye. The bartender has a heavy hand, the drinks are cheap, and it's the ideal location to catch up with an old friend.“

“It really just doesn't get any better“

“Food was really good. Wonderful atmosphere and excellent service!“

“The best Mediterranean food in Westchester. Great for parties, date night, and catching up with old friends. Come in and have a meal. You won't regret it!“

“Excellent Service, along with a great Atmosphere. And don't forget very clean bathrooms which keeps many people coming back, since it's a reflection of the prep and service...!“

“We had such an amazing experience! From the moment we arrived, our server Rene Dobson greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel welcomed. We decided to sit at the bar, so there was no wait.

Rene was extremely attentive, friendly, and had such a great personality. What really stood out was how helpful she was with the menu. Without us even having to ask, they shared some of the most popular menu items and offered recommendations that made deciding what to order so much easier.

The combination of her friendly personality, excellent customer service, and genuine hospitality made the experience even more enjoyable.

Great service can truly make a difference and our server definitely delivered. We left feeling very satisfied and would absolutely return. Five stars for outstanding service and making our visit such a pleasant and memorable one!“

“We just hosted a big event at the Townhouse and it was amazing! Dana is a joy to work with, her team was professional, and the food delicious. My vendors loved working with them also!!“

“Great Waterville nice vibes good food“

“My best friend lives in Queens so she and I come to the Onion Tree every other Friday night. I wish this place was closer to me. I live in Yonkers. The food is superb, seasoned extraordinarily. The chicken is fresh, soft and cut into small bites. I always order chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, or chicken tikka pizza. I have never had food that I enjoyed this much and I have tried all foods all over the world. I never get tired of this place. And the food is served quickly and piping hot. They’re opening a second place in Manhattan. We’re getting closer to Yonkers!! The drinks are awesome too. Barbra and Louis work behind the bar. They’re friendly and great bartenders.“

“Absolutely LOVE Campground!!! Fun, casual scene, comfortable inside & outdoor spaces and terrific Matcha! Also, the management is truly community minded- they compost coffee grinds and allow a space for pumpkin drop-off in November. What’s not to love?!!!🌱“

“This place has become one of our local favorites since it opened. The menu has all kinds of interesting items and there's always something delicious for everyone in my family or friend group! The outdoor seating area is very nice as well. The only negative (if you can call it that), is they don't take reservation on the same day so plan ahead!“

“This place may be small in square footage, but it's overflowing with charm. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, and beautifully designed—it's the kind of restaurant that makes you want to linger over one more drink.
I've been here several times, and the lamb is absolutely outstanding. My only two requests? A slightly larger menu (because I want even more excuses to come back) and martini glasses that are a little more generous. A cocktail this good deserves a little extra real estate.
Those minor wishes aside, this spot is a gem. Great food, great ambiance, and one of those places you'll happily return to again and again.“

“I’ve known this crew since their days at Perdition in Hell’s Kitchen, and walking into their new spot felt like no time had passed at all—in the best way possible.

From the moment you step inside, you can tell how much care and intention has gone into everything. The décor is clean and beautifully done, the drink and food menus are thoughtful and creative, and the prices are honestly more than reasonable for the quality you’re getting. It’s clear this is a place built with real passion. But what truly sets them apart is something you can’t fake—the genuine warmth. They’ve created that rare “locals welcome” atmosphere where everyone feels like a regular, whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth.

Seeing Scotty behind the bar again instantly brought me back, and catching up with Sean, his wife, and the rest of the crew made the night feel more like a reunion than just a night out. I laughed, tried some fantastic new drinks, and had great conversations—not just with the staff and loyal regulars, but also with folks who had stopped in before or after a nearby concert, which added such a fun, lively energy to the place.

This spot is an absolute gem. If you’re anywhere nearby—whether you’re heading to a show or just looking for a great night out—do yourself a favor and stop in. You’ll understand immediately why people keep coming back.

And honestly? The only downside is that they’re no longer in Hell’s Kitchen… because I’d be there all the time.“

“As usual, we had a lovely time. Fun to watch the USA soccer team and they won! Service = great. The food was mostly good but fish & chips a little soggy evidently. And it was a REALLY hot evening outside. The temp inside Emma's, however, was a little too chilly. But a wonderful evening! Thanks!“

“Bar attached to the Sonesta White Plains hotel. Limited option for drinks and food, but they are nominally priced when compared to other restaurants nearby. I had steak, it was perfectly cooked and sumptuous. And had egg benedict for breakfast, all tastes good.“

“Overall good ambience great staff and great crowd.“

“The Snug and City Island Diner are true local treasures. They’re owned by the same wonderful people and share a kitchen, but each has its own vibe and hours — and together they’re unbeatable.

The fully loaded chili here is hands-down the best I’ve ever had. It’s rich, hearty, perfectly seasoned, and also shows up in their nachos, which makes them next-level comfort food.

One of my favorite things? They have a secret menu (no longer advertised) with specialty grilled cheese sandwiches and specialty hot dogs — and we absolutely love it. The Tuscan Melt (no onion) is perfection, and the Reuben Dog is unforgettable. With the hot dogs you get two, and you can mix and match styles, which is such a fun and generous touch.

At The Snug, my go-to drink is a black & tan, which pairs perfectly with the cozy, neighborhood pub feel. Over at the diner, my favorite dish is the Corned Beef Hash breakfast — classic, satisfying, and done exactly right.

Beyond the food, what really sets these places apart is the people. Every server is genuinely kind, welcoming, and deeply plugged into the City Island community. You feel like a regular even on your first visit.

Great food, great people, and real local character. City Island wouldn’t be the same without them. 💙🍽️🍺“

“Casey’s Tavern is a fantastic local favorite that absolutely deserves a five-star review! From the moment you arrive, you’re welcomed by a relaxed, friendly atmosphere that feels both classic and inviting.

The food is excellent—simple, well-made, and full of flavor. From hearty comfort dishes to perfectly cooked bar favorites, everything is prepared with care and consistency. It’s the kind of place where every meal feels satisfying and dependable.

The drink selection is great as well, with cold beers and solid cocktails that pair perfectly with the laid-back tavern vibe.

What really makes Casey’s Tavern stand out is the service. The staff is genuinely friendly, attentive, and makes you feel like a regular even on your first visit.

If you’re looking for a comfortable neighborhood spot with great food, drinks, and atmosphere, Casey’s Tavern is a must-visit. Highly recommended!“

“If you are looking for great drinks, and food at a great price on the Island, THIS IS IT!!! The bartender is freaking AMAZING!!! We went to celebrate my friends birthday, she was skeptical at first, but the bartender turned it up. I only had Jack & coke and I can swear she put half the bottle in those drinks😅😅 LOVE EVERY SECOND I WAS THERE!!!!“

“A downtown community staple of Stamford. The staff are always engaging and willing to help. They have over 65 beers/wine/saki/kombucha on top. A good plethora of assorted bar foods that are top-notch and kid friendly.

Keep a lookout on their schedule. They offer a lot of community block parties as well as well as nightly events, including an awesome bingo night on Thursdays.“

“I When Mary was working there it was such a awesome place I stopped going there because It was too much Drama the bartender is a To face and it's gotten ghetto“

“Waiting for grand opening and offering best wishes for nothing but success to Tracy and partner, this from the primo of Tracy’s father! Best regards, Frankie López Sr.“

“This is as original as stepping into a real pub in Ireland. The bar has the atmosphere and hospitality you’d expect. The tables are set up comfortably and clean. Our waitress Meghan was an angel. Sweet and hard working. If you wait a bit it’s all good, just relax and get a drink because when the food comes it’s excellent!!!! Fish and Chips and their Wings are simply the best! The owner Declan is a fine gentleman as he walks around and says hello. Walk in with the right attitude and your experience will outshine your expectations!!!“
