48 Best Pubs near Staten Island

“Great family owned establishment“

“Visited alone to try the pizza and watch some of the Jets game - the former was delicious and the latter disheartening. My fellow diners and the bartender were all remarkably welcoming of a non-islander and even gave me a free Jets x Captain Morgan can which I used as a cup for a year. They might have handed that out just because they didn't want to associate with the Jets anymore. Who knows.“

“A great place to hang with great food options and friendly people. And let’s not forget the live music!“

“Just nice, very friendly personnel 😊👍 Every time i come to NYC, i take Staten Island Ferry and visit this pub 👍👍 This was probably my 5th or 6th time ❤️“

“We ate at the Point Tavern this past Saturday night after reading other reviews. We were seated promptly. Ordered two appetizers; hush puppies & street corn shrimp. The bang bang sauce was very tasty on everything. I loved that they were served on cast iron pans (nice touch). Then came out roast beef sandwiches, one with a pretzel bun, other the ciabatta. OMG. The best, savory, melt in your mouth flavor bomb roast beef we have ever had. We will definitely be going back!!!“

“Always the best food- staff is great and for being a neighborhood bar…love the ‘all is welcome’ type atmosphere. Some of the best pup food on island“

“This restaurant was AMAZING. We went Sat night, and could not have been treated more special. The owner, Kim, helped us with the menu, was totally delightful and you can truly tell she enjoys her customers and being there. I am going back .. soon. The atmosphere was delightful, you felt like you truly were in Germany. TOP service, the food is amazing ..a MUST DO on your list .. annually, if not more.“

“Service is always great. But the quality of the veggie burger has gone downhill :( They use a different type of veg patty now that isn't as tasty. And always seems to be very overcooked or undercooked to the point that it's inedible. I really hope they bring back the old ingredients because it used to be my fav dish to order!“

“Great local spot to grab a beer and a burger and watch a game. Made even better now that @shaingallagher has moved over from the Dark Horse which closed.“

“Headed over to The Bar for UFC fight night. The atmosphere was great, the staff was wonderful and although I didn’t experience the food myself I saw some plates come out that looked amazing! Excited to have a new spot in town with familiar faces - definitely would check it out!!!“

“I just recently moved back to Bay Ridge after years away. Going into Bean Post I was welcomed and felt right at home on my 1st visit. The Food is fantastic and the mixed drinks they know how to pour them in Brooklyn. They offer fantastic meals especially there Thanksgiving meals you can pick up. My girlfriend had major surgery about 2 weeks ago. It was not possible for us to cook a Thanksgiving meal. WE ordered 2 Thanksgiving meals and the portions were amazing and a value we could not find anywhere else. The Turkey Dinners we purchased and the joy we had sharing Thanksgiving together with our dinners from Bean Post made it a Wonderful Holiday. We are now looking forward to ordering Christmas dinners from Anthony and his family. They treated us well. THANK YOU!“

“Was great!! Food was delicious as usual!“

“Excellent. Loved the service and the food. My first time visiting from Florida.“

“We had a repast for a family member and everything was fabulous! Setting up all the details with Lynn was seamless. Staff were friendly and very attentive to our needs. Food was absolutely amazing! We can't thank you enough! Highly recommend!“

“GREAT dive bar!!
Pool & Darts, old school atmosphere, and OLD SCHOOL PRICES!
I had a great time for $30!!…
And for me, that’s sayin’ A LOT! 😅
The owner is a sweetheart, and the bartenders are fun!
I definitely recommend!!“

“My first time in a bar @ Perth Amboy and I don't know Spanish and I felt more comfortable than most of my usual spots. They went over and beyond to make sure I had the drinks my friends and I wanted. Good chill spot if your on road and trying to relax for the night.“

“I love a dive and this place provided! Aisling was phenomenal; she was constantly busy, yet consistently on top of everyone’s drink orders. She’s incredible!! Although I’m not a local, I was welcomed and treated as one. I can’t wait to visit again! Promised I’d be back, and I don’t break my promises. See you all soon :)“

“This is my favorite go to place to bring friends for a great meal and cozy atmosphere. The wait staff and bartenders are friendly and welcoming as is the owner and his wife. Love this place!“

“Don’t think twice …go checkout this local gem! Not fancy, but warm, cozy, oh so friendly staff and amazingly affordable. Our bartender/server KP was a rare find.“

“Best Corned Beef Sandwich in the State and and awesome burgers as well!“

“This is the best bar and my favorite bar in JC. I come for the tots and stay for the drinks and the jukebox. Every time I come here is a great time. It’s a bit small and gets crowded Friday through Sunday so come a bit earlier for a seat at the bar. Very friendly atmosphere, sports and mtv vids shown. The only thing that could make this place better is showing mma fights 💜“

“Stumbled upon this welcoming pub after a long working day during UN Week in NYC. As my hotel was near Carteret was able to hop off the NYC bus and stroll right in. Trivia night was on and that was a welcome diversion - as was the prompt and friendly service and the cold beer! BTW, $5 Happy Hour is Monday-Saturday 5-8pm. I’m a wing snob so didn’t give them a high ranking but definitely in the zone of tasty and comfort food! Highly recommended!!!“

“We needed someplace close prior to attending the Haunted Soiree at 60 Pine St. I had a Swiss and mushroom burger with their outstanding French fries. It was all a very good choice.“

“Good neighborhood bar with good service and free food at times. Best deal in town.“

“We stopped by during happy hour and were pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable the entire experience turned out to be. The drink selection alone set the tone for a great visit. I ordered the Malt House IPA, which was delicious—crisp, refreshing, and full of flavor. My companion went with an Old Fashioned, and it was exceptional as well: perfectly balanced, smooth, and clearly crafted with attention to detail. It’s always a good sign when a place nails both their beer and their cocktails.

For our appetizer, we started with the onion rings, and they were easily some of the best we’ve had in a while. The beer-battered coating was light enough not to overpower the onion, yet still crispy and satisfying. You could really taste and feel the onion itself inside, almost “blooming” beneath the batter. It’s a small thing, but it made a huge difference—simple comfort food done incredibly well.

My companion ordered the American Burger, and he couldn’t stop talking about it. The star of the dish was the onion jam, which added a sweet, savory depth that elevated the whole burger to something special. He said it was genuinely one of the best burgers he’s ever had, and he’s not someone who throws around that kind of compliment lightly.

I went with the Roasted Chicken, and it was the perfect comfort meal. The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the pairing of the creamy mushroom sauce with the tarragon and mashed potatoes created a warm, delicious combination that hit every craving. It was hearty without being heavy and tasted like a dish made with real care.

Overall, our happy hour visit turned into a memorable dining experience. Great drinks, excellent food, and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere made it a place we’d happily return to. Highly recommended for anyone looking for comfort dishes done right and cocktails that impress.“

“I was recently in New Jersey for a concert and staying at a hotel for a few nights. My friend and I were looking for a quick bite to eat nearby. We decided to go to this place on a whim and it turned out to be one of the best decisions ever. The atmosphere was incredible. Everyone in there was so cool and the bartender was fantastic and very helpful. She recommended the Jack Daniels burger so we both went with it. When I tell you we both dreamed about this burger for our entire trip. We ended up going back to this place two more times. It was such a great local place with great people. I can’t recommend it enough. If you’re ever in the area go there and get the Jack Daniels burger. Talk to the locals. Have a pint and enjoy the vibes. 5/5. 10/10. Incredible.“

“Oh my gosh! What a gem!!!! Landed in NYC and spotted Walkers and just had to go in. A fabulous bartender, Eugene shared a bunch of his favorite restaurants. And of course, his famous Presidents’ Day costume. The burger was great but the guests and the staff - out of this world!!! We will be back!!!“

“Rarely do I feel inspired to 5/5 a place but this is a magical spot to hang out. DJ Davis G spins the best music creating incredible vibes you cannot miss. The servers working are attentive and friendly. All of this is a 10/10, but I need to talk about the food. The wings at this spot are by far the best wings you will ever have in your entire life. When you are listening to some of the best songs you ever heard, while receiving the best service you have ever had the pleasure of receiving, you will be sitting down eating the best wings you have ever had in your entire life. These wings changed my life. I have a new answer to my "what would your last meal be" answer after consuming the wings at this pub. Nothing will ever replace how I felt when I was at this special pub. Cannot recommend more.“

“Great staff, amazing amazing happy hour“

“I stopped in to have a couple of drinks prior to going to see the Christmas lights in the neighborhood.

This is such a great little cash only dive bar in Dyker Heights. My bartender (whom I didn't get his name) was fast and friendly. I got a couple of Bloody Mary's as that is one of my main cocktails, and they were very simple and tasted great.

I really liked the vibe of this bar where it wasn't too noisy with loud music. They also have several TVs displayed if you want to watch a game.

The prices for drinks are super cheap as my Bloody Mary's only costs $8. As far as food goes, I believe the only food offering they have is pizza.

Overall, I definitely like this place, and I will most certainly stop in again for a drink or two or three the next time I am in the area.“

“Great date spot. Food is good, drink are on point and the atmosphere is perfect.“

“Great neighborhood bar. Friendly bartenders, welcoming atmosphere.“

“Good food and cold beer! Mac and cheese hit the spot on a rainy day.“

“It's a small place but the food was amazing! I had the Caliente Cali burger. It was delicious! The chipotle Mayo was really good and their frys are amazing! Definitely will stop by again if I get the chance.

Parking: Good amount of parking, if it's busybitncould be difficult to find a place to park.“

“Solid sports bar with good wings. We ordered three traditional wing flavors: buffalo, O'Hara's special sweet and spicy, and parmesan garlic. The O'Hara special flavor was by far the favorite of the group. I would not order the artichoke dip again as it was quite watery and tasted about the same as a frozen option from the grocery store. Although they have a great beer menu I was disappointed that my two preferred beers were unavailable to order (Blue Moon and cold snap). All things considered, I'd come back for the wings and the sports bar atmosphere.“

“Great renovation- sports bar with plenty of TVs to catch all the games.“

“Good vibes only. Very friendly staff.“

“There's good bartender service. Nice vibe, nice music. The cost of drinks is fair. They're fed. This place appeals to me. Everyone is checked for your safety, including the security personnel, front and back bars, Djs on deck, sports on TV, and ATH. There are hookers on deck and a pleasant vibe.“

“I liked the tiki bar and the atmosphere was nice“

“Great place... I go for lunch all the time... Try the Cheesesteak... The thin crust pizza... Ceasar salad... & the Roast Beef is always Rare...The Staff goes out of their way to make you feel welcome..So drinks at the bar or out on the patio.... It's a good time“

“the food is great, the staff is awesome and the atmosphere is beautiful. having my baby shower here in march and really looking forward to it!!“

“I highly recommend Beckett’s for many reasons! The drinks and service were great and really admire the ownership and any management. I hosted a private event for my birthday and everyone had a fantastic time and my experience was so positive from the planning to end. I filled out an interest form initially and Noel called me in the same day and provided all details I needed. He was also very flexible when it came to coordination of attendees and food/drink options really making it a stress free organization. During the event we had Grace as our bartender and she was fantastic and helped with everything upon setup and flexibility for the night. The drinks were great and were able to make this a special night. I will definitely be going back here to support Beckett’s and recommend it for anyone who plans to host an event and wants a stress free and fun experience. Thank you Noel & Beckett’s!“

“I Visited Killarney Rose today with my family and we had a fantastic time! We stopped by to watch a Premiership game and were blown away by the welcoming atmosphere and incredible service. The bar staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive. John, the owner, came over for a chat, and his warmth and hospitality truly made our experience memorable. He made us feel right at home. The prices were great, especially for New York City, and the overall vibe of the place was unbeatable. I cannot recommend this place enough! Perfect for sports fans, families, or anyone looking for a laid-back spot with great people and service. We’ll definitely be back! Thank you, John and team, for a wonderful experience!“

“We can't recommend Salty Dogs party room enough. It's absolutely stunning, spacious, fantastic service, amazing and delicious food (as quoted by my sons for their Communion party the best mozzarella sticks, pizza, chicken fingers and crispiest fries in Brooklyn). It was big enough for all our guests to have room to move around and not feel crowded, the buffet food option is amazing, everyone can have a taste of anything they want and there was almost a never ending amount of food.“

“Sherman is extremely nice and helpful and The service was Awesome he Mounted My 50in TV installed LED lights and hid my cable TV wires for a great price????. It was super fast! It took no longer than 30mins. I’m gonna schedule another appointment for my living room Tv when I’m ready ???“

“Great for dinner while watching a game“

“Nice to be at an Irish Pub on St Patrick’s day!“

“Melanie was a great hostess!“
