The place itself is narrow and even early afternoon on a weekend the place was so packed I needed to stand. That being said this was the best poured Guinness I have had in the US. The bartenders were nice as well and everyone inside just seemed like they were having a great time. A must stop place to get a pint of Guinness when in Manhattan. read more

Met friends for dinner on a Wednesday night to also catch the trad music. There are very few seats so be prepared to stand until you can snag a table! Order everything up at the bar. I ordered the sausage pastries which were just okay. My (very Irish) husband ordered the curry and wasn't too keen on it. The fries were great though! It gets packed and very noisy really quickly so be prepared to fight over the volume to hear your conversations. And unfortunately it was really hard to hear the trad music as well because of this. Still a great night out though! read more

The bouncer is incredibly rude and has a power trip. I showed up with my friend around 2 am, and he refused to let me in because he said I was too drunk, which absolutely was not true. I honestly thought he was joking because I had literally only had two drinks a few hours earlier that night. And I'm not saying I was completely sober, because I was definitely tipsy, but nowhere near close to drunk enough to be told I couldn't go into a bar for a friend's birthday. Meanwhile, the bouncer let in a ton of his buddies--many of which were clearly drunk--no carding, no nothing. I've never had this happen to me, and still not sure why it did, but it was definitely a shitty way to spend my last night in the city before flying out the next day. So, if you plan to go to Grace's, I guess just don't have any drinks beforehand (unless they get a better bouncer)? read more

Good Irish pub near Chelsea Market. They have dedicated taps for Guinness and my husband said it was a great pour. Laid back and friendly place with bar seating and also a whole room of table seating as well. Cute exterior - the facade on the outside of the building looks like a traditional Irish pub and there is outdoor seating within an area surrounded by a white picket fence. We didn't order any food, but the plates we saw being carried by us looked very good. read more

We stopped for a wine. They were kind enough to let us try a few we didn't know. Quiet bar when we were there but I'm told they get very busy! read more

Over priced mixed drinks...look out . Pints are average at best. Unless you want a candle lit pint w a bunch of posers .. move on. You're better than this. read more

Always love coming here. It's conveniently located next to the 14th St. L and C train. The cozy ambiance feels like a lovely hug. They have bar seating, a snug and tables in the back to sit. The bartenders are friendly and know how to pour a pint and make a cocktail. The pub food is also an excellent you can't go wrong with anything. They arguably have some of the best guinness in the city as well. read more

Decent vibe, not the most outstanding beer or food selection, but everyone in our party found something on the menu they liked. I had the D.A.B. Pilsner (a bit of an obscure German mid-tier pils), and the Chicken Pot Pie -- which looked more memorable than it tasted, but it wasn't bad. Nice ambiance, pleasant crowd, would come back for a chill drink in the area! read more

Met my son there for drinks. Active spot for the mid 20's professional crowd. Fairly crowded on a Thursday evening at 10:00p. Mostly finance bros coming from work to grab a few minutes of enjoyment. read more

Bouncers are insensibly rude and overall not a fun atmosphere. Not to mention there was throw-up splattered all along the outside of the bar. Been in NYC for 5 years and this is one bar I will not go back to. Leaving this review so other people don't make the same mistake! read more

Stopped by for HH (goes until 7) in the west 14th Street area. We got an order of dry rub wings (non HH), a cocktail (HH) and a wheat beer (HH). Cozy Irish pub vibes going on and the bar tender was very friendly and efficient! read more

Came for a drink and there wasn't any a staff at the front. After 10 minutes I just sat at the bar waiting a friend. The place gets super rowdy by 7pm and people crowd the door so if you're looking for a place to hang and chat, another place might be better suited. read more

5 stars, great spot (especially for a first date) but don't get the cheese sticks !!!

Great Irish pub with even better service. The bartenders were super friendly and attentive. A nice array of food choices with something for everyone. Super casual and comfortable pub. read more

Came here on a Friday evening to meet up with some friends. There's two bars, one in the front which is their main bar, and one smaller one in the back. Was recommended to get their Guinness draft as they prepare it differently. I'm not a Guinness fan and I didn't really taste much of a difference from a standard Guinness. It's a fun time for the most part, loud music, and a chill vibe. Service is very lax where you need to get their attention. read more

We were a group of 15-20 people We came in and we all agreed that the bartender's attitude was super stale. It was the first thing mentioned when we left. Her whole vibe was off putting and after getting together for an old friend's memorial, the last thing we needed was someone who had an attitude The food was good. Busboy was attentive and hard working. Would never return as the bartender gave us all bad vibes. Most of us were former industry people so we understood maybe she was having a bad shift....but wth...it was bad Also, ginger ale soda was flat which matched her attitude. read more

I recently went to this bar for the first time with a few friends. We decided to try it out, because a nearby bar was overly packed. The space is really cute -- dimly lit, lots of wood, booths, and tables, with a really nice back area. It was a really well-decorated spot. I tried a couple of the food items, all of which were pretty good. We had the soda bread with butter, which was tasty. My friends had the corn dogs, which they really enjoyed. I also had the baby gem lettuce salad, which had a really creamy buttermilk dressing to go along with it. For drinks, I had a King Carlos, which was really a nice drink. It was well-balanced, with a slight kick from the Thai chili. I really enjoyed my experience at Grace's, and would definitely go back if in the area! read more

I've been to Grace's a load of times and have never had a bad experience. There is a front and back bar with two different vibes. It is stylish and perfect for a casual night out. While the space can get a bit crowded, the vibe is always lively, making it a great spot for both after-work drinks and weekend hangouts. Overall, a charming bar with a lot to offer--just a tad more space would elevate the experience even further. Highly recommend. read more

I've only been here for popcorn and drinks but the location and service brought me back. The bartenders here are super friendly and they have taps specifically for Guinness. We had dinner already but I wanted to snack on something and ordered the Popcorn with Irish Cheddar. It comes in a huge bowl with lots of cheese. Yum! read more

What a fun night going out with girls. My friends and I get a table at thr front room of Grace's. We are so lucky because the place isn't packed yet. We are four then another friend join in the middle of the night. It looks like we have a private room that is what I like about this place plus the bartender is very friendly even the bar is getting busy. Frozen Margarita, Margarita, Hendricks, truly clawless and popcorn. We have 4-5 rounds then one of my friend start to get too sleepy so The party has come to the end. We picked this place because it wasn't far from the place we were hanging out before. Drinks are affordable the the service is good. read more

Great bar! We stumbled upon Grace's on a busy Friday but were able to immediately able to snag a table outside. The staff is friendly and the drinks here are super strong (in a good way)! They offer frozen margaritas either to stay or to go, and you can really taste the tequila in those. We didn't try any of the food, but ended up staying for a while because of the great drinks and atmosphere. Would return! read more

The best thing about this bar for us was the music. It's been pretty hard to find bars with good music nowadays (not sure why) - this one had a good music of pop, hip hop and vibes. I got the vodka dirty martini which wasn't the best I've had but it didn't the job. The bartenders didn't really interact much and we were sitting at the bar. read more

My favorite Irish pub in NYC. The space is beyond cozy, they serve great simple food, and you won't find a better pint of Guinness. We had a private event in their back room, and it could not have been more perfect. Everyone loved the atmosphere and was wondering why they hadn't heard about this place earlier. Sara was great to work with and made sure we had everything we needed (+ Mia and Amanda as well)! On top of this all, I discovered they have live Irish music on Wednesday nights. As if there weren't already enough reason to become a regular! read more

After realizing McKenna's was a flaming pile of s&it, we decided to go directly next door to Graces. Admittedly the menu on the wall outside screams 'a little expensive' but they still have $8 beers on tap which is almost every bar in Chelsea these days. The place inside is beautiful. Massive upgrade. The bartenders and entire staff are attentive and kind. What we both realized after a few minutes is that this is basically a bar if you are a single dude looking to score with really hot chicks, this is your place. Like overflowing with really well groomed young women. I was even surprised. I guess It's an upscale Irish bar? Cocktails are $15-16, beers $8-9. Not entirely sure if they have a happy hour. I guess they do live music and brunch. I liked the pilsner and wit beers I respectively had. I can't quite justify or understand how a $17 grilled cheese is on the menu. Was it flown in from Ireland? I say, this is the spot to come if as I said before you're looking to score or in my case people watch after having a ridiculous incident next door. read more

Honesty, stuff was pretty good, but the butter was extremely good. Like the best butter around. Like somehow noticeably good. We got the bread and butter and pickles. Again ok except for the butter. It's like Kerrygold premium reserve limiter batch. Also good corn dogs. read more

Your neighborhood bar in the Chelsea area and also a hidden gem that I want nobody else to know about. Grace's is a massive hit for happy hour after work. The staff is friendly, the drinks are reasonably priced and the Grilled Cheese is out of this world. It has a large back area and a total of two bars within the entire venue. The back area can be rented out for private events although it's generally booked 6 weeks in advance.. so get the requests in early. read more

such a fun little bar! we came on a friday night around 7pm and were able to get two seats at the bar. at about 7:45pm the bar really started to fill up! they have a lot of seats at the bar and a good selection of tables in the other room. we didn't get any food, but the options all looked good! i got a vodka martini which was delicious, and my boyfriend got the king carlos and it was amazingggg. the staff was so nice, the place was clean, and the location is really convenient! we can't wait to go back! read more

Fucking scammers!!!! I order 1 shot for 9.80$ and when i heave my card it got declined ? I checked my bank account and they charged my card for 168.90$ !!!! And LUCKILY Wells Fargo is legit and didn't let it go through and then after their scam didn't go through the bartender came back with the correct bill and it went through. BE AWARE OF THIS PLACE WITH YOUR CARDS. pay cash if anything. The girl with orange hair is a scammer ! read more

Worst customer service in NYC ever. I have been to many bars in NYC but this is the worst !! My friends and I walked pass by this bar. We were looking for frozen drinks.We looked at the menu in the front and they have. We decided to get drinks here, we ordered Frozen Miami Vice but it wasn't frozen at all. My friend asked the bartender she just said "it is half way frozen and this is the best thing that I can do" what kind of customer service it is ? It wasn't half way at all. It like regular cocktail. She should let us know first if the drink isn't frozen yet. Then my friend told her we wanted frozen drink can we change to something else. She said yes and threw the menu to us and sighed at us with attitude (kind of racist). We end up paid for the bill and left right away without touching the drinks. Waste money and ruin my day! read more

Stopped in randomly after meeting a friend in the area, adorable stone walled place and the bartender (Shawn i think?) Was the most friendly and super quick! Definitely coming back read more

Stumbled upon this cute place as we were walking home from dinner. The door/entry is hidden and you have to walk down to get inside. Once you are inside it's a cute pub like feel. Lots of trust in the owners of this place as the whole place is lit with real candles. The drinks here were on point. Will definitely come back again! read more

Absolutely adorable!!!!! I thought this was going to be a classic Irish pub but I was very impressed. The bar is lovely and decorated with little lights and exposed brick and seasonal decor.

A neighborhood gem! The back room is stone with charming ceiling fixtures of the sort you'd find in an Irish B and B. We went in after a show at the Joyce because it was so darn cute and the prices reasonable. Also, Jack's Wife Freda (the Chelsea location), while larger than the SoHo location, was deafeningly loud at 3:45 PM on a Sunday. I tried the Olivia's Parfait: Greek yogurt, toasted cocunut, farro, and pineapple and was delightfully surprised by what emerged in a few minutes from the kitchen. I thought it would be Greek yogurt with some pineapple and coconut topping, and perhaps some farro on the bottom. It was all mixed together and DELICIOUS. Large portion. I should not have finished it but it was so good I couldn't help myself. My friend had a no frills grilled cheese with bacon and tomato, with special relish on the side. My Bloody Mary was good and just 9 bucks. His Montauk beer a fair price too. The back room is really cool, well-insulated by the stone and the a/c in the front bar area must waft back there. At night they have Celtic music. read more

Lively Irish pub, completely with Celtic band in the back room just rocking out. This place is all ambience with the music, rustic decor, to go along with a selection stocked list of Irish Wiskeys. This place is a truly great find for something atypical of the New York City bar scene. read more

Do pub reviews matter? In this case they absolutely do! We randomly walked into Grace's last week and it was great! The bartenders were amazing (sometimes hard to find in NYC). Dylan was great! He chatted with us and made us feel like we've known him for years. Please go grab a pint for a drink from them! I promise you won't feel like your in NYC! read more

We are visiting from Los Angeles and are staying nearby. On our five night stay this is our 4th time visiting Grace's. That is how much I love this place. Every cocktail I order is amazing, and the service is great. They are open until 4 a.m. every single night which was a plus, as most bars in this area close at 12 a.m. Definitely check this place out if your are in the area. I recommend the King Carlos and the J.W. Flood. read more
