Amy W.

I really enjoyed this pub! it was recommended for its spice bags, and was great for a large group of friends to hang out and catch up. there's lots of seating, including big booths, and it was easy to snag a reservation. service was also friendly and fast the portion sizes for its meals are huge and most things were a big hit. Our group also really enjoyed the irish sodas! would be happy to come back again.

Came here with a group of 8 people, had reservations and everything worked out nicely. The atmosphere is awesome, especially with the holiday decor. I enjoyed the Only Fans martini and fries happy meal for $15. We also order sliders, Parmesan garlic fries, and chicken tenders. Chicken is would pass on but everything else was good. The reason I had to take away a star was the service. The waitress was extremely dismissive. We had to ask to order and even when we did she would only let one order before turning her back and walking away. Would come back for drinks and apps, but the service staff was deterring for me. Accessibility: poor wheelchair accessibility. Bathrooms and aisles are very narrow.

Not every bar knows how to make a good espresso martini, but this place actually nails it!!! From the outside it looks like a pub, and honestly inside it still gives pub vibes, but the drinks are way better than you'd expect. I started with the OnlyFans martini. It's not too sweet, a little different, and I actually loved it. The espresso martini was surprisingly really good too. And they've got a little "speakeasy" upstairs IYKYK. I'd definitely come back for a girl dinner or brunch. Solid spot and worth coming back!

Made a reservation for Friday around 7 but ended up sitting at the bar when I arrived super early. Good happy hour until 8pm. Dimly lit but still an inviting space. The bartender was friendly and attentive. My favorite drink was the red beret. So delicious and well balanced. Lots of seating and tvs available. I did get some food, the chicken roll. It was ok, I wouldn't get it again. Too much bread and not enough chicken. But their fries were delicious!

Went to Bartley Dunnes in NYC for brunch and tried the breakfast tots and the chimichurri steak and eggs. The food was okay -- not bad, but not the best either. The breakfast tots and the steak and eggs were decent, but the food alone probably wouldn't be the reason I'd come back. What really makes this place stand out is the atmosphere. Upstairs is super cute -- very pink, pretty, and girly. When I went it was a disco brunch and there was a singer performing who let guests request songs and even sing along, which made the whole experience really fun. The drinks were really, really good, and the service was great as well. Overall the vibe, atmosphere, and drinks are what make this place worth visiting. If you're looking for a fun brunch experience with good music and a great vibe, this is definitely a spot to check out.

This was my second time meeting friends for drinks here. The food was good, the service was fast and friendly. Great place to meet for drinks and grab a bite.

We came here for happy hour - the staff was great and provided great service. We wanted to experience happy hour on both floors (there's a speakeasy upstairs) and the bartender downstairs was kind enough to transfer our bill upstairs. We also wanted to try a happy hour drink we saw downstairs at the upstairs bar, but it wasn't on the menu. The bartender upstairs was kind enough to still make it for us. Now on to the happy hour experience - tasty drinks (we got the aperol spritz and the tequila mule), pretty good HH prices, and cute vibes. The upstairs bar + Photo Booth was so fun! Exactly what we were looking for on a Friday afternoon.

Bartley Dunnes is a great bar with a solid HH, at the very least on both Mondays and Tuesdays. My friend and I went on a Tuesday and obviously partook in their tacos- they were quite good & definitely a more than adequate amount of protein given. I ordered my classic go-to- a rum & coke (I know so basic) & I'll be honest I didn't exactly taste the rum in it. My friend & I also got the nachos to share which were great, a lot of cheese given can't complain about that :). The MLB game was also playing which was nice if you like sports for a lack of better terms haha. I'd go back for HH & in general.

Jason M.

I have to give a shout out to Archie. One of the best bartenders I have interacted with. He hails from Ireland and knows how to make a perfect drink every time. If you are looking for a good Guinness or a freshly made cocktail, this is the place for you. The ambiance here is amazing with good vibes that every old soul will enjoy (and anyone else with a good taste in music). This place is perfect for after work drinks or just a nice night to yourself. There is no such thing as a bad time here (unless you are bringing negativity in... good luck with that one). I love this place.

Jim S.

I liked it here. Good vibe bar with good drinks and good food. I will definitely be back to try other menu items. I had the grilled chicken sliders with hot wing sauce when I was there and they were delicious.

Rachel S.

The food was good, we had brunch there and bottomless mimosas. The service wasn't great and they smoked us out from burning food in the back. They had to ops the front door to air it out. They also don't have salt and pepper shakers at the table.

Lizey N.

Had a reservation booked for a table on a Friday night. Wasn't able to get into the speakeasy but the server was kind enough to let us check it out and take a peek upstairs. Service was a bit slow and we had to wave our waiter down but she was friendly and nice. This is the first time I've ever seen anywhere serve an Irish spicy box so we had to try! Definitely an interesting flavor and combination. The wings were dry rub and also had an interesting flavor too...dry jerk and spicy bbq? Not spicy at all and the jerk did not taste authentic. Drinks were a hit though and the espresso martini had a nice touch of chocolate powder over it. Still a cute holiday bar to attend although the music was a bit low and kinda dead inside, no one was really dancing. But it was cute. The vibes fully weren't there but the aesthetics were

Sarah M.

My 5 stars is for their Irish Spice Box alone - it's so flavorful and the added Irish Curry is chefs kiss. If that's not enough, they pour a good Guinness ($10). For the most part that's about all I've had here, but I've been on two or three occasions now. If the spice box (crispy chicken, peppers, onions, curry, fries, and aioli) was a little lower in price ($23), I'd be here a lot more often. The good thing is it's a decent size so you can split it into two meals. And if you're nice, they might give you some extra Irish Curry to take home - that stuff is gold. They have a pretty good sized menu but I can't say that I've tried anything else because once I find something I like, I get it over and over, especially when it's been a good amount of time since the last visit. Which reminds me, it's been a minute so I'm thinking I need to change that soon because I need another spice box.

Great spot in midtown Manhattan for a casual drinks and dinner if you're going with friends or on a date. They open late so you can always go to the bar if you want to grab another drink and extend your night. I went on a Friday night and they had a DJ as well. The servers were great and kept checking up on consistently even through we were in the back and there weren't many people occupying tables in the back. The food was good too and I recommend the bao buns! They also had HH mon-fri until 8p. read more

Oh boy a lot. We had a reservation for 9 that grew to 11 which was kind of accommodated but definitely not at a table that could seat 11. We were tight, squished and had to pull our own extra chairs to accommodate. Our service was extremely slow. We basically were only able to order 1 round of drinks and appetizers before being cut off and pushed out because there was another reservation at a certain time and we were told we had to be out. We weren't even able to order entrees and they told us NO. We had our time limit to be out anyway bc we had a show booked but to be told we couldn't order dinner entrees 45 minutes before we actually had to leave was so ridiculous. What if we wanted to be here ALL NIGHT order food & drinks for 11 people...apparently they did not want that bc they said we had a time limit before the next reservation. I'm a GM in the restaurant industry and I was appalled at this lack of service. Turn & Burn does not = $$$. This is not even a 5-star Michelin restaurant it's a Pub Bar at best. Don't waste your time or money here. read more

My friends and I went here for girl dinner. It was so cute and lovely. There were a lot of reservations so we had the table for about two hours and then they asked us to move to the bar. The food was really good. My favorites were the whipped feta and the fried olives. In total, it came out to about $80 per person, which included all of the food, drinks, and tip. I think that's a great price for bottomless drinks and dinner, especially in Midtown. I would definitely return. We had a great time. read more

Was excited to go to a bar our first night in NY. We wanted to celebrate the life of a friend's son who passed away. His favorite shot was an Irish car bomb so I asked to have one to take and send a pic to my dear friends. He abruptly chastised me and said that's an insult to ask for. It made me cry and I let him know why and nothing. No sympathy or caring. One and done and will never go back. What happened to decency and treating customers with kindness. No empathy anymore. :( read more

Came here on a Friday night recently with 20 of my friends to celebrate my 40th birthday. I got in touch with the bar's event coordinator in advance to make sure we had a space for all of us. We didn't have a minimum to meet, and the coordinator was super responsive to make sure we had everything we wanted. The vibe was incredible. Disco hits all night long and we stayed until nearly closing. Some of our friends ordered food and enjoyed it, though I can't personally speak for any of it, except the slice of decadent cheesecake they presented to me with a birthday candle. Truly felt like I got stellar class treatment for our group! The bartenders loved us, and we loved them! Def coming back next time we visit NYC. Such a fun place! read more

My favorite pub in Manhattan!!! I stumbled across this gem on a visit to NY last September. The glow of the neon sign outside beckoned me in (my late father's name was Bartley and that was my initial reason to stop in) and I was not disappointed. Andy was so friendly and helped us when we couldn't decide what to order- the disco tater tots were amazing thanks Andy! After a few pints of Guinness we left with full bellies and big smiles, and I was already looking forward to my next trip back there. Big shout out to Archie who gifted me with a Bartley's pint glass in honor of my Dad, I was so touched by his friendliness and generosity. Honestly I love this place. I wish it was my local but unfortunately I'm a 4 hour drive. Oh and did I mention they know how to pour a pint of Guinness? PERFECT. Bartley's, I miss you - I'll be back to visit soon!!! read more

Specialties

Bartley Dunne's is A Most Unusual Pub located in the heart of Midtown Manhattan. A place for everyone to enjoy ambitiously creative and classic drinks alike, delicious fare, and laughs with friends. Share stories and smiles over a pint or martini in this welcoming, eclectic pub atmosphere with a subtle nod to the decadence of generations past.

History

Established in 2023.

Taking inspiration from the iconic Dublin establishment of the same name, Bartley's is celebrating the spirit of its namesake with art, music, cocktails, and of course, delicious food. The bi-level bar is complete with a sleek bordello-style decor features local artwork from artists around Ireland, and boasts a cocktail program crafted by celebrated mixologist Conor Meyers. With funky house and disco beats, patrons will enjoy signature cocktail creations and twists on small plates. The inspiration for Bartley's came from a popular bar in Ireland that the owners used to frequent. Paying homage to the iconic establishment, they met with the original owner's daughter at a bar they own in Dublin, who handed them a framed photo right off the wall of the original establishment. As the first-ever to welcome bohemian artists, musicians, and the LGTBQ community in traditional Ireland, Bartley's continues to challenge boundaries and offer unique experiences.

Patent Pending

I'd give this place 6 stars if I could. It's my favorite speakeasy in the city by far…read more The drinks are absolutely phenomenal. They're experimental, whimsical, delicious, and worth every penny. My absolute favorite is Child of Light, and my BF's was High Frequency Device. The interior was dimly lit, with a couple of candles per table or counter. It's a perfect place for a date night. And while there may be a wait on busier nights, it's always worth the wait. We were sat at the bar once and were very well taken care of by our bartender, Nikola. It was a Sunday night, so it wasn't terribly busy. We chatted up a storm and he was able to create some drinks off the menu just for fun (on request). He also made my BF and me a couple of drinks to celebrate our anniversary too. Wonderful people and wonderful service. Needless to say, we will be back as frequently as we can!

One of my friends and I were looking to grab a drink before calling it a night. She had been to…read morePatent Pending before and had good things to say, and since it wasn't too far from us we decided to head over. Patent Pending is a speakeasy, located behind Patent Coffee. It was dark when we entered the coffee shop but an ajar door gave way to the bar. The decor is a homage to the works of Nikola Tesla, which can be seen in the subtle electric theme throughout the space and the naming of the cocktails. The space isn't too large - the bar and stools take up most of the space but they also have some booths/tables. The place looks great. The cocktail menu is very creative - I got one of their seasonal mixes that was actually two drinks in one. The main cocktail was meant to be sipped first and they provided a small glass of beer to be sipped after. The name escapes me but it was very good. Since we had cocktails at dinner, we only stayed for one round. Service was good, and overall I enjoyed my time at Patent Pending. I would definitely return to explore more of their menu.

As I walked in and saw just how swanky this place is I panicked - there was no way we could just walk in here without a reservation, right? But the hostess was, thankfully, so down to earth. I was straight up like hey I totally messed up and thought we could just walk in here, she was like you know what, let me see what we have. Lo and behold, she did have a table for us - as long as we were out in an hour and a half, which was just the right amount of time. Stepping into this place feels like you're in some secret, super special cocktail club. Decor is super high end, vibes are upscale AF. The cocktail menu is incredible -- and incredibly pricey, but truly worth it. I ordered the Valentino which was strong and sweet, really well made. They gave out a complimentary nut mix that was also delicious. Service was swift and gracious. If you're looking for a spot to impress a date, this is it.

There's also seating on the second floor, perfect for couples or small groups. I tried two of their cocktails when I went. The first was the Eastern Julep, a delicious twist on a classic. The mint Moroccan tea gave the drink a cool, refreshing taste on every sip. I also tried the Silver Screen, the closest drink I could find to an old fashioned. It was interesting, there was definitely a hint of a buttery taste. Overall a really balanced bourbon drink. I walked in and found room at the standing tables. A bar seat eventually opened up but I was already on my second drink by then. Definitely make reservations if you're planning a visit!

I stopped by Clemente Bar with a friend who was staying at a nearby hotel. I had never been to…read moreEleven Madison Park before and wanted to check it out, not realizing at first that Clemente Bar is a separate concept from the restaurant. We walked in without a reservation around 6:20 p.m., and they were able to accommodate us at a shared table until 7:15. The menu surprised me a bit. Since I associated the address with Eleven Madison Park, I wasn't expecting to see items like wings stuffed with sausage, which were done in partnership with Jungsik. We ordered those along with the mushroom burger and asked them to cut the burger in half for us. The cocktail menu was creative and a little intimidating, with unconventional ingredients like cream cheese and green curry. I went with a fruity Hendrick's-based drink, and my friend ordered the spicy green curry martini. Both were good. Mine didn't taste very strong, but it also wasn't overly sweet because there was enough bitterness to balance it out. The green curry martini was more adventurous but still worked. Service was mixed. There was a woman standing near us, so we tried ordering food with her, but she seemed hesitant to come over. Maybe she wasn't a server or was newer. For drinks, she brought over someone more seasoned, who quickly helped guide us based on our preferred taste profiles. Her suggestions were very good. The mushroom burger was the highlight for me. It was a little salty, but the crispy mushroom and soft bun were a great combination. I honestly wished I had more than half. The wings were okay. They were crispy on the outside and juicy inside, but coated in a Dorito-like powder that made them very messy. Overall, it was a good experience, and I'd come back, especially for the mushroom burger.

Monkey Bar became one of my favorite Midtown restaurants because its modern history ran almost…read moreperfectly alongside my years in New York. I arrived in 2008 with very little, and when Graydon Carter revived the restaurant in 2009, I was beginning a rise of my own, first at a large global bank and then, to my astonishment, at one of the city's most powerful investment firms. The suits were daily, the walls were gold, and the pressure was so consuming that even success could feel like a form of attrition. After a few years, I moved to a smaller firm with Southern roots, where the culture was more humane, the work gave me greater autonomy, and I produced some of the strongest results of my career, even within an industry still governed by fear, greed, and status. Inside, the red booths, low lighting, generous spacing, and hand-painted monkey murals made lunch feel ceremonial without becoming stiff. The room was timeless and handsome, with polished service, quality food, and the subtle assurance of a place where you could be proud to bring someone important. I especially remember sitting in one of those booths with two mentors, each only a few years older than I was and therefore close enough in vintage to feel relatable, trustworthy, and genuinely within reach. One had entered my life after I left the larger firm and helped me understand an earlier chapter that had also ended abruptly and, at the time, felt deeply unfair; the other had guided me through the smaller firm where I finally found a more sustainable way to work. Over that long lunch, I introduced them, we discussed several promising ideas, and for a moment my career seemed to have reached the point where relationships, experience, and opportunity were finally converging. One of those ideas consumed an extraordinary amount of my time and energy, and I believed it might become the foundation of my next chapter. Instead, the arrangement eventually turned on me, the role I thought I had earned never materialized, and the business itself sputtered. My professional life, financial footing, and pride all collapsed just as COVID was beginning. Then Monkey Bar closed in 2020, which made the ending feel almost unnervingly complete: the restaurant, the city, and the version of myself built around New York finance all went dark at once. For years, I experienced that ending as devastating and unfair; now I can see it as wisdom delivered through an unnecessarily rough process. The restaurant's later revival by a Chicago hospitality group feels fitting because it still honors tradition and ceremony while allowing the old forms to evolve into something healthier, looser, and more current. I have not been back since that lunch, but a return now would feel like visiting the museum of my past, not reclaiming a life that asked too much, gave too little, and finally lost its hold on me. Even now, I remember Monkey Bar as a great Midtown lunch in a memorable room, surrounded by the residue of old ambitions and the gratitude of having survived them. The cocktails were sharp, the service was impeccable, and the dining room carried that glamorous old New York energy without feeling trapped by it. I remain deeply fond of the place, partly for what it was and partly for what it witnessed. Some restaurants become attached to a chapter of your life, and Monkey Bar holds mine with unusual grace.

It featured a crispy, sugar-glazed exterior and a soft, chewy interior, topped with truffle cheese and served with a truffle butter dip; the pairing was superb, and it tasted great both on its own and with the dip. For the main course, I ordered the miso-glazed black cod. The flavor was flawless, and while the portion was small (which was acceptable), the pool of broth accompanying it was completely unnecessary; it was inedibly salty, so what was the point of serving it? After finishing the fish, I was left with a plate full of broth, rendering the plate unusable. Plus, it was overpriced; for this dish, you're better off going to Strip House Strip House remains the undisputed king of this dish in New York. A friend ordered the chicken parmesan. It was just average. Another friend ordered the short rib stroganoff. The flavor was decent, but it was far too rich and heavy. As someone whose palate is split 50/50 between Western and Chinese cuisine, I could manage only five bites at most. If you have a palate that prefers 100% Chinese food, proceed with caution on this dish. Friends ordered sides of mac & cheese and mashed potatoes. These are dishes originally meant for low-income Americans to fill up on cheaply; there's no limit to how good they can be, but also no floor to how bad they can get. Both were on par with the average quality found in upscale restaurants. Honestly, these are two dishes I would never order myself. To sum up: the atmosphere was great. It's also hard to get a reservation; the place was packed when we had lunch at 2 PM. Aside from that monkey bread, I didn't feel like anything else justified the price or offered something you couldn't find elsewhere. I don't quite get the hype. Perhaps I just didn't order the right dishes; maybe next time I'll try the burger and the steak.

I visited Bartley Dunnes with two friends for brunch. The bartender was excellent, and the drinks were amazing--easily the highlight of our visit. The ambiance was cozy, making it a pleasant place to start our day. However, things took a turn when we moved to a table. Our waitress, Leah, was quite aggressive in pushing to complete the transaction. Unfortunately, this resulted in an error where she walked away with a $75 tip on a $200 bill. We didn't realize this mistake until after we had left. Lesson learned--if you go here, beware of the aggressive tactics some servers might use. Apart from this incident, the food was just okay, but the drinks at the bar were top-notch! read more

Food-wise, we had truffle fries, which were very delicious and rich. Id say you can split those among four people. Orange chicken, which was very tasty. If it had been a little crispier it would have been perfect, but I still loved it. We also had sliders, which were okay but didn't rise to the level of the other food. This is a lively place with lots of hard surfaces so it can get pretty loud but it has a great neighborhood vibe.

The drinks, the food, and the service could not have been better. Nitti stopped by and chatted with us for a while. What a nice guy! He gave us a complimentary drink and a dessert. I got the chicken francese since I wanted something a bit light. It was perfect. The others got salads with a chicken breast on the side. That was awesome as well. I wouldn't hesitate to come back here.
