50 Best Dive Bars near Woodside

“Un buen lugar para tomarse unos tragos y disfrutar, un ambiente tranquilo , excelente atención“

“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.“

“The best dive bar in Sunny side hands down !!, they treat you like family and the locals are fun to interact with . .. ahh they also have a lovely back yard and POOL table …🤟🏻“

“We stumbled across this place yesterday, we dipped in from the cold for a break and had a pleasant surprise, the staff were so welcoming and made sure we got a seat at the bar... later realised I had read about the bar previously, the hot dogs are a lovely touch and drinks amazing prices. x“

“Jimmy's Corner is a must stop every time we're in NYC! The bar tenders are the best part of this place. We can't wait to go back!“

“first trip to NYC. Stayed close by and just happened to walk in to what may be one of the best nights ever! The bar tenders were so nice! I felt like Id known them my entire life. We made new friends at the bar and spent the night singing and laughing. SO. MUCH. FUN“

“I didnt eat there but my band soft spot played a show there. The band Lo Lux put it on and they did a fantastic job hosting, running sound and being one of the best bands I've played with !
As for the bar itself the staff was fantastic ! barely a wait for a drink even with a packed bar ! If you have a severe peanut allergey this may not be the place for you as they serve peanuts like a bar would serve pretzels with the shells being thrown to the floor. All in all aside from the peanut situation I would definitely recommend going and if you're lucky enough to catch Lo Lux, well you will have struck gold.“

“Great place to hangout and always drink specials. Best bartender in town by far.“

“Greatest Place on Earth :)“

“Dive bar in a nolita location that is small and full of character both in the service and the decor. We loved our visit and highly recommend the pickle back shots as the pickle juice is home made and it die for good. Enjoy this lively small space!“

“Don’t fear the crypto vibes! The people at this bar make the experience a 10/10. Sydney makes the best drinks, especially her pico de gallo martini. Amazing vibes, great for a quick drink, a chicago hot dog, waffle fries, and some stellar company.“

“It has always been a pleasure stopping by a great after work place to have a drink or two.☝“

“Awesome experience that anyone can enjoy the drinks and food, too! The bartender is really good @ what she does! Way to go!🫶🏽“

“My favorite spot in Brooklyn.“

“Best Bloody Mary! Best Saturday play list! Great bar! ❤️“

“The music is always good, people are fun, bartenders are friendly, decor is pretty metal and punk oriented, a fun place to go to.“

“So much fun to visit from California! Great locals place, great staff, cool vibes!“

“Great little bar, nice beers on tap and the fresh pretzels are a great bar snack. We didn’t order anything off the kitchen menu so can’t comment but the employee behind the bar gave great service and kept everyone’s drinks topped up.“

“"Corner Bistro isn't just a bar; it’s the West Village’s North Star. A true Manhattan icon, it remains a masterclass in the art of never changing while the rest of the city chases trends. Between the legendary Bistro Burger and the cold McSorley’s, it’s the soulful, juicy heartbeat of the community. It’s history on a paper plate—unpretentious, timeless, and exactly what New York is supposed to feel like." Next Step: "Would you like to see the current menu or check for peak wait times?"“

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

“#AmazingBar #BroadwayDive 🥰“

“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“

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

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

“Lovely staff and great atmosphere“

“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.“

“Kelly’s Tavern in Bay Ridge has been holding it down since 1932—so yes, Papa Kenny, you’re in one of the oldest and most classic bars in the neighborhood, and it doesn’t get much more Brooklyn than this. Old-school Irish vibes, cheap drinks, and regulars arguing at the bar—you might as well be sitting here with Sinatra, a Mets game, and a roll of singles for the jukebox. Kelly’s is real-deal Bay Ridge, not just any old watering hole: it survived Prohibition, hosted generations of locals, showed up in “Saturday Night Fever,” and still keeps the spirit of Brooklyn alive every single day.

While there are even older bars in Brooklyn (like Teddy’s in Williamsburg, 1887), for Bay Ridge you’re smack in one of the neighborhood legends—not the newest kid, but definitely in that OG company. Raise a glass and yell, “Cheers, Papa Kenny! This is what New York feels like!”“

“fun staff, great food. chill vibe“

“I always have a great time at High Dive. The bartenders are SO nice and are patient when I can’t make up my mind about what I want to drink! The atmosphere is friendly and low key. It’s currently my favorite barr.“

“great place to have some good company.“

“Awesome food, environment and great service 😋“

“Great #NewYorkCity #DiveBar #SportsBar with cold 32oz buckets of beer and sports enriched entertainment. They have amazing parties throughout the year...the best is the Christmas Buffet and Specials. Overall a good place to crash with friends or to make them!“

“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.... !“

“If I can remember, I always come here every friday night. Which is karaoke night. So, my review will be based on that specific night only.

Been there few times on friday night. Very busy night, very long line of karaoke, but the DJ did a veryyy good job. He remembers people's faces, like literally remember who requested what. His great memory amazed me and not to mention there is no pause or break. So, eventho its a long line of karaoke, but you will eventually singing.

Bartenders are great, drinks okay. Prices normal for the area, drink sometimes good, sometimes meh.

But yea, so far its been pretty amazing experience.“

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

“Everything here@SOCCER TAVERN“

“Could not believe there is a small town bar in the middle of Hoboken. Loved everything about it, from the bartender Daniel, who was not only professional, but friendly and fun to chat with, to the juke box you can play your music.

I loved that it was very quiet in the middle of the week, and you could interact comfortably with other peole“

“A fun spot. They have hookah, good drinks, the staff is friendly and the music is good. I am unsure if they sell food or not but I believe they do. I've been there twice and would definitely go back again. Great place to meet up with friends and grab drinks and just vibe.“

“Cool neighborhood bar. This is a very spacious bar. They have a pool table and some games. The service is good. The prices are great. It's a laid back atmosphere. You can order food in the back. I didn't try the food so I can't rate it. Maybe next time I go I'll try it.“

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

“We came all the way from Minnesota and ended up at The Shannon Pot, and we couldn’t be happier that we did. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome—friendly, warm, and happy to have us there.

A special shoutout to the bartender, Asad, who truly went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. His service was outstanding and made the night even better.

Great atmosphere, great people, and an unforgettable stop on our New York trip. We can’t recommend this place enough and would absolutely come back again!“

“Great experience, fun vibe, great drinks, even better staff.“

“One of my favorite dive bars in the city and a neighborhood staple in the LES. The wood paneled walls and plastic covered sofas add to the lure of this place. I’d recommend going between 5pm-8pm during Mon-Thursday if you’re want to grab a seat.“

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

“Cute vibes! Great Service!“

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

“Heard great things, but I honestly never went here because I felt it was disrespectful that my partner repeatedly suggested coming here during ladies night with female/femme table top dancers, even though the owner is a lesbian. Sure this place is a lot of fun!“

“What an awesome bar. Vibes are chill, bartenders are friendly (and generous), and trivia and karaoke and happy hour deals are great. Truly a gem and an amazing addition to Greenpoint. I make the trek from queens and it’s worth it everytime. Would recommend!!!“
