    House Guacamole and Chips
    Steph W.

    Ambiance (5/5): This is such an awesome sports bar--several large TVs surrounding the whole bar and really open space with tall ceilings. The room is wonderfully decorated, like you're in a library. The upscale bar feeling is nice. The front windows/walls are open so natural lighting comes into the venue. Only qualm is that the tall chairs are stools with no back so over time it gets a little uncomfortable sitting. Happy Hour menu (4-7pm) that had $5 bottles, $6 drafts, and $8 wine/house mixed drinks--mozz sticks $14. Service (5/5): Despite how large the venue is, the staff was constantly doing laps so it was never hard to get anyone's attention. They also checked in for refills before our glasses were empty! The hostess and the server were both very smiley and sweet to us. Food (4/5): I enjoyed the mozzarella sticks which were stacked in a tower of 3! The chips for the guac were a bit stale but otherwise a very standard guac.

    No frills pub - came in for a quick drink before a show nearby. Efficient service, nothing noteworthy one way or the other!

    hot Wings
    Sarah K.

    The wings here are 10/10. We did their 3 appetizer special. 2 sets of the wings and the pig in a blanket. We wish wr had done all wings. The ambiance during the holiday season was very cozy and we loved the soft lighting all around. The service was amazing and we loved how attentive and interactive the staff were.

    "Tall" house rum and sprite. Regular price during happy hour is 8$. Make it a tall adds 2.50!!  Better to order a soda on the side.

    Wonderful atmosphere just pay attention and check your bill. Happy hour tall wells are $10.50 instead of 8$ what? Their reasoning was an extra $2.50 for the extra soda! Ummmm we loved this place u til now. Poor service tonight and bad attitudes. We have come the last 2 nights for late dinner or drinks. Had wonderful food and service. Wondered why bill was getting higher. What a rip off. Very disappointed. Manager did ask me to change my review after he comped our drinks. That was very nice, but not necessary or the point.

    Picked Crompton Ale House for a group of cousins to gather. Close to Penn, great space and beautifully decorated for Christmas. Food was delicious, service was excellent (Julio!!!!) and the manager was the best I've ever dealt with...made us feel so welcome and incredibly accommodating (we are not a quiet bunch).

    Good place for happy hour drinks after work or to watch a match. The prices here are pretty reasonable. As for food it's your typical pub fare. They have really good fries and my friend said she liked her burger. I got the Cobb pretending to be healthy and it was good. The service is great and very friendly. It's quite large inside with a lot of tables, booths and bar seating. It's also conveniently located near Penn Station and a few other train stops.

    Inviting and classic. Great barkeep! Nice guy. Just off 7th on 26th. All you need for a good time.

    This was a beautiful hidden gem during a holiday trip to NYC. The food was delicious! My party all enjoyed their food and shared dishes. The chicken sandwich was flavorful and fresh and the sweet potatoes fries were a great pairing. I felt like a kid in play-land being fascinated by the beautiful ambiance. The holiday decorations were a beautiful touch but the BOOKS! It's like a beautiful library with real hidden gems throughout. This place is a book lovers dream! Service was great and attentive too.

    Picked this spot randomly due to its proximity to penn station, but was worried it would be packed and crazy - Was pleasantly surprised to see that Crompton Ale House is super spacious, with rustic, but modern decor. Good happy hour specials - typical cheaper beers, wines, etc. Food was quite good as well - Would definitely recommend the Mushroom flatbread. service was great - The bartender was friendly, attentive, and gave us space. definitely will be returning!

    Visited Crompton Ale House for lunch and dinner time. I will say the lunch experience was a lot better due to the service. There weren't many tables so the waiters were more attentive but I can see that they were really busy and trying their best when we went for dinner. It is a very spacious place so there's lots of seating options from high and low tables to the bar seating. It's very casual and the decor fits the trendy rustic theme. I will say I am obsessed with their Barbie Cosmo which is made with watermelon. It was so good that we ended up ordering 2 rounds each time we went. Note they do have a happy hour from 4-7pm and that drink is included! We all enjoyed the food we ordered. I had the Buffalo Chicken Flatbread both times and my friends had the Reuben Sandwich, Margherita Flatbread, and 26th Street Burger. During our dinner visit we tried the Bar Pretzel as an appetizer but it wasn't the best. It didn't have much flavor and it seemed to be overcooked so it was too hard. Overall I really like this spot and they seem to be consistent! Definitely going to be a regular since it's near my job.

Check-in was quick and easy, and even though it was a full house for a Saturday night, we were still able to find seats without an issue. The space was definitely lively and a bit crowded, but there was still enough room to move around comfortably. Our bartender was really sweet and made great drinks , the cranberry vodka and Long Island were both spot on. We didn't pay extra for the additional glasses to smash, but the six cups included were enough to make the experience fun and satisfying for a casual night. I can see why people would want to buy a full bucket though as it definitely adds to the excitement. The crowd was respectful, and the bathrooms were decently clean, which is always a plus. Overall, a great spot for an stress-relieving, spontaneous night out!

It's a nice bar not too big and the break room is secluded and safe. Don't forget your glasses.

Can't complain. They have four booths in the back maybe it was three. I did notice one of the hanging lights was from an 80s pizza hut joint. Letting you know now the paper towels for your face at the table felt like jail toliet paper, very rough. The bar doesn't have bar stools with backs! You either need to get one or two tables by their mini kitchen, very hot there not recommended for preimenopause or menopausal women or one of the booths. This is a great bar they played 60s music a lot. Heard some weird al too! Very random and fun place to be. The bartender was nice as well as security! Try the burger! Worth the $9!!

    This place has so much potential it's honestly a little offensive that it's not living up to it…read more Like... you walk in and you feel like something should be happening. The energy is right there, hovering, but it never actually lands. It's giving "almost iconic" but not quite--like a party that never fully starts. And that's what gets me. Because this bar could EASILY be that spot. The kind people plan their week around. Where are the themed nights? Where's the drama? The chaos? Give me a reason to come back on a random Wednesday. Do a city-event tie-in, a holiday takeover, literally anything that makes it feel alive instead of just... existing. Because right now it feels like a missed opportunity wearing a cute outfit. BUT--let's talk about the one thing they absolutely did not fumble: the view. The VIEW??? Insane. Genuinely stunning. The kind of view that makes you pause mid-sentence and remember you're in New York and not just spiraling in your own life choices. It's carrying the entire experience on its back, respectfully. So yeah. I'd come back... but mostly for the view and the potential. If they ever decide to actually do something with this space? It could be dangerous (in a good way). Until then, it's vibes... just not fully realized ones.

The view is gorgeous and sweeping. The service is attentive and professional. The drinks are sophisticated. I ended up here because I saw a video about their gin and tonic. Sounds simple, but it's one of my favorite drinks, and I'm always looking for someone who can do it well. I ordered their "dear G&T" and it was a fruity, complex riff on my old favorite. I also got the foreign forage, "a bourbon smash with a mint zing." It was also a delicious take on a classic. They have several types of cocktails, all broken down by spirit and flavor profile. They also offer a lot of spirits made in New York State. They have cocktails with earthy notes, fruity notes, fancy martinis, and a section boasting limited edition and special spirits, if you're "feeling fancy" and wanna cough up 35 bucks instead of 20 or 25! They have a bar snacks menu (sliders, nuts, and the like). I had their thick cut fries and they were light, seasoned, and tasty. I couldn't stop eating them. Midtown or not, I highly recommend this spot, which also has a couple other locations, including Gramercy.
