barfly has amazing happy hour drinks & apps everyone should come! Very nice service, great food, great drinks, all the things

The customer service here is very friendly. I came here originally to meet up other people. I saw a lot of people enjoying their food, which was typical bar food, but it did look nice. I was a big fan of the music this night and they a good decent amount of space to hang out in. They have a nice happy hour menu as well. read more

Great food! Great lunch specials. No frills dive/sports bar with a pool table in midtown. Can get really packed at happy hour and beyond but was fairly slow for weekday lunch. Highly recommend checking out the $12 lunch specials! Def worth stopping by if you're in the neighborhood and need an adult beverage or bite to eat. read more

Date: Thursday, May 8th, 2025 Time: around 8:15pm Party of: 8 My group had a dinner reservation at 9:30pm. Since we had some time to kill and the Warriors game was on, we decided to go to Bar Fly. It wasn't super busy at the time, so we were able to take over that whole nook in front of the TV to the right of the entrance. I think we all just had pints of beer the whole time. Me specifically Bud Light since it was on tap and I was trying to watch the cals. I know I had a few rounds, but not sure what each beer costs. One of our receipts for I think half the group was $84. This was including tax, tip, everything. A fun bar to catch the game. When away from SF, glad I can still find a spot to watch an out of town team. REVIEW #3771 read more

The bartender Luis is incredibly Disrespectful. I came in with a friend that he apparently knew, and he continued to talk down to us and even threaten to attack us. Not only that, but he reeked of alcohol and obviously wasn't coherent enough to be running this bar by himself read more

This is my favorite bar in the city. I go there every week and the staff is so nice. They have my favorite beer that I cannot get anywhere else in New York and consistently go out of their way to order it for me. I eat dinner there about once a week. The food is great too! read more

Great place to watch a game and have a few brews with the fellas. Solid atmosphere for a sporting event and tremendous bar food!

I have worked in this neighborhood for over 15 years. I adore the area. New ownership, however, when you do something like that, you as a business, hv to be on point. Just not consistent, everything also exists! read more

Luis, Owen, and Fernando knew how to shake the room. We had a blast great drinks and the place so cozy !!!

Great place for a lunch break (opens at 11:30). Service is super friendly to chat with while ordering lunch. Nice traditional feel to the place read more

Had the best beef burger and fries. Am not a fun of burger but this one I would do it again and again so delicious and juicy. And the service and energy was amazing the lady is so friendly. read more

Stopped in here for a drink to kill some time. This is basically your run of the mill dive bar. We came on a Sunday at around 12PM. I'm not sure if it was the timing or this is how it usually is, but the crowd was a bit older than I would have thought. There was a nice elderly couple next to us just having coffee and breakfast while we were having our cocktails. Everything is what you would expect for the price but the best place to kill some time and shoot the breeze. They have some outdoor seating, doing what they can with the space so that's good. Inside looked pretty dark, but socially distant when indoor dining was still a thing. Service was super nice and friendly. Server came to check up on us exactly the right number of times. The drinks are definitely reasonably priced for the area ($8 - $10) and a very nice spot to just catch up with people. Would recommend stopping in! read more

No ac so it was fairly hot but we grabbed a drink as we were waiting for dinner reservations nearby. They did have a huge fan to help with the heat but I kind of felt sorry for the staff since they were hot too... speaking of.. the staff and bartender was very nice and there were plenty of TV's! Fun dive bar feels and great prices too! (They also have a pool table) read more

Great place to watch Thursday night football! Lots of energy and plenty of great seats to see the multiple TVs!

I did delivery today from Barfly. Had the French Dip with au jus on a baguette. It was phenomenal. For $2.00 extra had their excellent mashed potatoes with gravy. Fantastic! Everything came beautifully packaged with no omissions. Very large portions and even came with a tasty pickle. They even included a few curly fries, which were meatier than normal curly fries. Loved them. Their prices are low and quality high. Food is so much better than any diner, with the exception of The Waverly Diner. read more

Very nice place. Chicken sandwich was very large and was served with a generous portion of thick, curly fries. Nachos were good, also. Margaritas were good but they came with a spicy salt rim, which we didn't care for. (Neither of us like very spicy foods.) read more

Solid prices for NYC and a great place for a large group on the weekend. Bathrooms are relatively clean and have unbroken mirrors.

the burger was absolutely disgusting, for sure a frozen pre made patty with no seasonings added when it hit the grill. due to new Mangement the Pulsd vouchers are no longer accepted which is fine but you'd think they would get better quality meat as well with the switch but I guess not. the service was nice and the drink was decent, the fries was the star of the entree. Would swing by for a drink but not to eat, maybe the wings are good but I didn't want to risk it read more

I am concerned about the success of your business after watching one of your bartenders interact with my friend. He asked her for her ID and sent her away because he didn't believe her ID was real as it said "not for real ID purposes" on it. Clearly, if this was a fake ID, she would not get one that said "not for real ID purposes." My friends and I range in age from 25 to 27, and while it is flattering to be accused of being young enough to have a fake ID (from Oklahoma of all places!), I thought it might be helpful to offer a bit of advice. This marker is in reference to the REAL ID Act. I'm linking here to the Department of Homeland Security's website which explains what a Real ID is: https://www.dhs.gov/real-id/real-id-faqs. I highly recommend educating yourselves on this federal law which is going to be enacted officially on May 7, 2025. While the bartenders are not lawyers (to my knowledge), it would be wise to be aware of the implications of this legislation on your business and potential customers. I hope this is helpful! read more

I just love being lied to doesn't everybody? Ask if they had bottled beer and they say yes They hand me can This may explain why everything in the neighborhood is packed, and this place was empty Dirty too - don't waste your money there's better bars in this neighborhood read more

Walk in, total dive bar. Great vibes. Asked the bartender what food she recommends and she said the grilled chicken sandwich and it was AMAZING. Huge surprise given I was expecting the epitome of bar food, but this was almost luxurious bar food, and at the most fair price in town. 10/10, great spot. Can see myself grabbing food and watching Monday Night Football here and playing some pool at halftime read more

Listen, I'm grading on a COVID curve, meaning I'm sensitive to the service being affected by the pandemic. With that being said my standard hasn't dropped all the way down. Cons: The food was meh at best. I ordered two different types of fries, and neither batch was good, both batches tasted like it was left in the grease too long. The other dishes that my party ordered was ok at best. PROS: The service was EXCELLENT! Our server was knowledgeable, quick, friendly, attentive, & all around great. The drinks were nice..Listen I'm always here for cheap drinks that are tasty. In short Barfly is worth a visit especially on a Thursday..actually I insist you drop by on a Thursday. read more

Though this pub has been here for many years, I hadn't known about it based on my never really being in its exact vicinity. Technically speaking, I owe the knowledge of it from a good friend from Finland who was seeking an additional concert pre-gaming spot for when we would hit either the Gramercy Theatre or Irving Plaza for shows. At his suggestion, we made our way there and its a quaintly sized sports themed pub. They have a fair amount of tables and a longish bar to sit at. We secured some space near the entrance which is a nice elevated spot with a bunch of stools. If you are coming with a handful of people this is a solid spot to chill out and catch up over a few beers and grub. We kept the drinking to the Happy Hour Bud lites since they were $3 a pop and I had to "work" with the camera soon enough. Foods were numerous in selection and on one visit I had a chicken sandwich that was wonderful and on another an order of chicken tenders that had been served up buffalo style. I'd like to try one of their burgers for good measure and to add an image to my new Eatellia account. There was a free WiFi signal which is always helpful and the bottom line is that I shall be returning when looking to kick back with my friends. Check it out. read more

Barfly - Beer. - Sports Bars Near Me - New York, New York

This places is among a dying breed of reasonably priced bars with great food. And I am not exaggerating -- the food is fantastic, and all of their entrees hover around the 12$ mark. A go to drink/snack/dinner spot for me every week. EDIT: Same day since writing but I went to have a bite after work. Meatloaf with mashed potatoes and a beer. $22 pre-tip, insane for the neighborhood. This place is so excellent and that food, as always, was remarkable. I adore this place. read more

Reposting since my review seems to have disappeared? Bartender who said his name was Niall (Irish dude with a beard and a black eye) denied me and a friend who both offered him our REAL IDS AND ARE BOTH 21? And he said "well you could go to any bar around here why choose this one is this reeallyy your favorite bar?" Like straight up mocking us? We even said "Ok scan it then, do you have a scanner?" And he was like, yep but not gonna scan them. Also he was def just drunk and didn't wanna make drinks. Like what kind of bartender just denies based on pure vibes alone. Never going back byeeeee. Also what kind of bar closes at midnight . Don't go here man just don't. read more

Couldn't ask for a better dive bar. Great food, a dope bar tender, sports games, pool table, and only a handful of people in the bar. The bar tender Rachel was dope! Place was super chill, and I'd definitely come back any day of the week. read more

i laterally waited 20 minutes for a simple Turkey club while hearing the chefs bell to atate that the sandwich was ready. The bartender and server were laughing and joking as i also was waiting for a second beer. The female server waved me away to wait for it as she was in conversation with a customer. No AC made it unbearable so i left. read more

Barfly's nice, comfortable vibe, good drinks, and reasonably priced food makes it our team's go-to spot for post-volleyball food and brews. They have a long bar with ample counter space, as well as booths for those who'd prefer to sit, but the area we frequent the most is the "perched up" area at the front. Raised up a bit from the rest of the floor, and partially "fenced in," the front section has plenty of stools and additional standing space. Regular priced pitchers run either $15, $18, or $22, depending on what beer they're pouring. We stuck with Brooklyn Pumpkin Ales, getting four nice pours from each $18 pitcher. We've ordered wings, chicken skewers, curly fries, and an assortment of sandwiches during our visits, and, while the food may not be spectacular, everything's made well, and priced fairly. (i.e.. this giant plate of seasoned curly fries was $5: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/XpSVrJTLu9BFBy2_LFqIiA?select=-UoEFA_m5dCY8iaCVHLQ9A#ssfeP2vaypiXgRa28FWWDA) The bartenders here are awesome and very attentive to patrons regardless of where they're sitting along the bar. Topping off the experience, we're always treated to a playlist of 90's alternative/grunge/pop jams...appreciated by all of us! Overall, Barfly is a nice dive-y place to catch sports and not worry about being sweaty after some intense volleyball games...Just don't sit too close to us :) read more

This place proves that you can actually get good food, a lot of it and get it at a very good price in NYC. Their entire menu is reasonably priced and everything served is top notch. One of our favorite fried chicken places. So atypical of the standard NYC place who overcharges for small plates. Definitely would recommend. And they've got a pool table there! read more

We recently visited our daughter who lives in Manhattan and we wanted to eat dinner and watch NCAA tournament games. There were 4 of us. Bar Fly is a small bar with a neighborhood feel. It was very loud, but that's what you would expect for a bar on Friday night. We found a high top table and put four stools around it. The server graciously put our game on. Husband had a Manhattan which he enjoyed. We split a French dip which came with beef broth and fries. It was tasty. Older daughter enjoyed the sliders. Vegetarian daughter had a caesar salad which looked fine. As the night went on the bar got crowded with 20 something's. The music and vibe were super upbeat. There is a pool table toward the back which was getting action. Service was spot on. We enjoyed our evening. read more

Hell yeah bro $12 shot and a beer let's get it. Barfly lit. Need 20 something characters so ignore this part. read more

Had a great experience and prices are inexpensive across the board. Highlight was Jack who is everything you'd hope to have in a server...attentive - even when busy, helpful, and personable. He's a standout among what appears to be a sea of people who no longer care about the customer. Recognized and appreciated! read more

Felt like Irish dive bar vibes. Good drink deals and there is a pool table. Wasn't overly crowded when we went so we were able to take the back and have some beers and chat. If you are looking for a more low key bar this is a good spot to go read more

After work drinks? Yep I'm in. There are so many bars in the city and since I work a few blocks away it was a perfect spot to hang for a few. I went around 1pm and to my surprise it was kind of full. They have outdoor seating and there was a lot of shade so we decided to sit and people watch. They have HH on wine, house drinks and margaritas. My co workers and I ordered a bunch of apps to share and it was plenty. Drinks- frozen strawberry margaritas. Yum. Apps- tater tots, potato skins, wings and mozzarella sticks. Everything was good. Wings had a nice kick to them. Service was good as well. Waitress was sweet and attentive. Great place to stop in. Oh they also have a pool table inside. Enjoy! read more

Barfly girl! A very typical American sport bar with TV screen plastered all throughout this small crammed bar where at the back contains one pool table. The food menu contains all the staples: substantial burgers, fries, salads and oddly equipped with Felafel sandwich and French Dip Au Jus for an American sports bar. Weird. In scanning the drink menu online they have a good choice of wines and equipped with a full bar. With my second, I opt for one glass of Rosé wine as he selects his standard bar drink, Long Island Ice Tea which totals $17.50. I have a weakness for bar food and ordered Mozzarella sticks at $7.00. Our bills totals to $25.50 includes tax, without gratuity. (I've learned to pay the gratuity in cash from my former love and his mother collectively.) Background music is deafening loud. Service is rather slow and wait staff are dismissive when flagging them to place drink/food orders. Hooks are available under the bar for purses and bags. Space is somewhat crammed between the bar and the tables near the bar. Had I came here one week earlier Barfly was one of the many Manhattan bars/restaurants participating in Yelp Drinks Week... oh well, I missed it!! read more

T and I had no plans on seeing each other, but somehow got together and went out wibbly and wobbly throughout the night. T wanted to check this place out and so we ended up coming here to end our night. When T mentioned Barfly to me...I couldn't remember why this place sounded so familiar to me. It finally hit me today, that this is the bar that someone wanted to take me on a first date. I remember I looked it up on Yelp and it categorized this place as a Sports Bar - I am sorry fellas, but this is not the place to take your first date. I ended up telling the dude No, I don't do Sports Bar and don't do beer. Surprisingly, this place actually serves margaritas. I couldn't drink anymore, but I still managed to sip on T's margarita and pretty good for a low key bar. Didn't want to upset the eager for tip waitress, so we ended up sharing a plate of sliders. Umm, sliders weren't really good, but I would still come back to this place for the margaritas and service. P.S The Spanish dude that works here was super duper nice to us and found us a place to sit. Wooo Hooo read more
