47 Best Pubs near Staten Island

“Great family owned establishment“

“Lee’s Tavern is a staple on Staten Island, and for good reason. The pizzas are among the crown jewels of Staten Island, and the bar itself is just a classic, cozy, hole in the wall kind of place.

We had fried calamari, an Italian shredded pork hero, a white clam pie, and a regular pie (half with sweet peppers). The calamari was great. It was fried perfectly and the hot marinara sauce was really good with a nice kick. The pork hero was very basic, and though it lacked a bit in flavor, the ingredients all tasted very fresh and the cheese was melted very nicely, I enjoyed it quite a bit. The pies at Lee’s speak for themselves. The white clam pie is delicious, it’s a perfect balance of garlic, cheese, and that classic Italian clam taste. The regular pie is also just so fundamentally perfect. It’s crisp, thin, and the sauce is perfect.

The service at Lee’s is also exceptional with extremely friendly staff. My only complaint would be that Lee’s is cash only, though they do have an ATM inside. The pizza more than makes up for the cash only rule though.“

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

“Nice place, friendly staff and friendly customers“

“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!!!“

“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.“

“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“

“You have to try the Korean Fried Broccoli OMG! I’m a stickler for steak so I usually have the Steak and fried egg. If you like it rare like me just ask for it black n blue.“

“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.“

“Came here for a Make Jersey House Again show on a Sunday night. Felt like a Saturday inside. Nice vibe to the place. The sound system was really good - much better than I expected. It sounded better than some clubs I’ve been to - it’s really tuned nicely for house music.

The pizza isn’t bad either. Drinks are strong and not too pricey. I never go out anymore but I came out for the house music and I was pleasantly surprised with this place. Definitely more excitement than I was expecting for a Sunday night. Chill vibes for socializing with some very nice beats on a sound system that packs a nice punch.“

“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!“

“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!“

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

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

“My husband and I walked in here last night on a whim and walked into a birthday celebration for the manager. We were treated like family. This bar is wonderful. The bartenders, the music, the people, and the drinks. Don’t pass the place by!! Maria and Al, we will most definitely be coming back! Thank you for a fun evening! ❤️“

“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.“

“Great food and a really welcoming atmosphere! Cory was super friendly and the burgers (including my veggie burger!) and fries were some of tbe best we've ever had! I was traveling with my high school age kid and his friends and Cory made us all feel welcome which I really appreciated! Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“What an incredible experience at The Malthouse! From the moment I arrived, Molly made us feel welcome with her friendly personality, professionalism, and exceptional service. She was attentive, knowledgeable, and truly went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time.

The food was absolutely amazing—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Every dish exceeded our expectations, and it's clear that great care goes into both the menu and the overall dining experience.

Molly's outstanding hospitality combined with the fantastic food made for a memorable visit. We will definitely be back and highly recommend The Malthouse to anyone looking for great food, drinks, and top-notch service!“

“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!!!“

“The sexiest dove bar. Found this place thru the comedy circuit and have been coming for years now. Absolutely love love love the food. Them Carolina gold wings are wildly addictive. The staff is super dope (awesome). The banter is bar none. Great place Great atmosphere. Go enjoy yourself, Shae said so.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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!!!“

“Great staff, amazing amazing happy hour“

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

“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.“

“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.“

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

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

“As a Union Beach Resident, I just have to give a shout out to this awesome local pub. Although I visit there often and it has become like a second home where you visit family when you enter, the NYE celebration last night was so fun! The pre fix menu was full of options and the pricing was so fair. The drinks are always served cold and well prepared. Renee and Courtney were up beat and on point and made the evening even more enjoyable. It would not have mattered though who was behind the bar as the rest of the team there are all amazing and professional! If you are in the Bayshore area and are looking for a place to visit stop by and check them out!! BTW, the burgers are really the best in the area !!“

“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.“

“amazing food and service 10/10“

“Hard to beat the beautiful view year round, great food at excellent prices and fabulous drinks served up by an excellent team. Was there today for lunch. THEY ARE OPEN YEAR ROUND. You wont regret trying it.“

“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“

“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!“

“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!!“

“Good vibes only. Very friendly staff.“

“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.“

“Great for dinner while watching a game“

“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!“

“Melanie was a great hostess!“
