    Notre Dame game
    Danielle P.

    Such an unsuspecting location for a great sports bar. I came here on a Saturday night to watch the Notre Dame game after seeing on Reddit that this was a Notre Dame bar. The place was decked out in Notre Dame gear, and the volume was playing loud enough to hear the commentary which was important to my date. Drink prices were more than reasonable, with specials like a shot and a beer for $11 which I thought was pretty excellent. Though the bar was pretty packed we were able to grab two bar stools just in time before things started really getting crowded. Service was fast and friendly. Can't speak to the food but everything coming out looked excellent, I'd definitely come back to give the food a try. The only drawback of this place was that there was a fight happening the same time as the game, which they were charging a $200 minimum per table for. Totally get that they need to make that bread but sucked that it interfered with the crowd that was here to watch the rest of the game.

    The staff here is always welcoming and kind, giving a real familial vibe. The ambiance is always fun (with the option to play darts most nights when it isn't too packed), and it's ELECTRIC to watch sports there (especially Mets and Knicks games, along with boxing and MMA pay per views). And to top it all off, they have delicious food at a reasonable price. The brunches also have a bottomless drinks option and are often times themed. This is hands down my favorite bar to go to in all of NYC.

    Murphy's Sports Bar opened in Astoria early in 2024 and received many positive reviews. Our first visit was for a St. Patrick's Day breakfast with a traditional Irish breakfast. We had a problem getting two seats and I explained to the waitress that we do not put a tab on our food or hand over our credit card. Nowadays, with so much fraud going around, this is a BIG NO-NO. We never do this at any establishment. So we paid with cash. Now, to the good part. Murphys is a very welcome addition to the bar scene in Astoria. This Irish bar is warm and friendly with a surprisingly good crowd, considering how close they are to Astoria Blvd, which is out of the way for most residents up in the 40s. Our seats were comfortable, and there were big screens all around us so that we could watch a Premier League game without bobbing heads in front of us. Artistically, management has taken into account the vibrant history of Astoria, and we captured a lot of the atmosphere around us -(we visited midmorning/late afternoon period). From the food perspective, the Irish breakfast, which included sausage and beans, was delicious, and we were certainly not short of options. I don't usually drink, but as it was an Irish pub, I ordered a larger one with my breakfast. This was a rarity, so I plan to avoid repeating it for some time. Would I come back for future visits? Yes, but management, please do not ask patrons for credit cards. This was a turn-off and potentially asking for card scrimming or even the loss of a credit card. I would love to give you five stars, but this negative aspect of our experience was a bit jarring, and I would ask you to stop this practice. Otherwise, we had a great time at your bar.

    I came here to watch the game 7 Knicks playoff Game and it did not disappoint. The place was packed with fans and had awesome energy. There were tables inside and outside. Despite the crowds it was very quick to be served by a bartender who was on top of it. I can't wait to return for future games.

    Murphy's Bar in Astoria is a great neighborhood spot for meeting up with friends, sports watching, and good pub food. Chill, positive vibes in a cool atmosphere that was once a garage. The wings and fish tacos are great!

    Nice, cozy, little neighborhood spot. Friendly people. Food is good. Seems like a great spot to watch some sports.

    Murphys has the best bar food I have had in all of Astoria. The burger, wings, quesadillas, Philly cheesesteak are FIRE! We can't wait to try everything else on the menu. The staff is friendly and everyone needs to come check this bar out

I had the De Tijel Cocktail ($22) while the husband had the Old Fashioned ($20). The bartender described mine as an elevated and slightly sweeter Old Fashioned with that smokiness, which was quite similar. I appreciate the little details from the handwoven coaster to the patterned orange peel. Great spot for a fancy cocktail or date night as they also offer tables in the back and a food menu.

You'll forget that you're in Queens and feel like you're in Soho here, but without the pretentious attitudes. Service here was accommodating and friendly, and the prices were shockingly reasonable for the complexity of cocktails offered here. I had two of the Remy Style martini which were so fresh, delicious and fruity. The pineapple syrup in here definitely hit without it being too sweet. I saw that they had some small bites here but we were headed elsewhere for dinner. A solid spot to catch up with a friend or to impress a date, for sure. I really hope that this place sticks around!

    I attended the Portugal vs. Croatia watch party reservation event, which advertised a $100…read morereservation that included a $120 food and beverage credit and guaranteed table seating. When I arrived, I was not provided a reserved table and had to sit at the bar instead. That was disappointing since table seating was part of the advertised offer. The service during my visit was also inconsistent. My server (Vanessa) was often unresponsive when I tried to order additional drinks and food, and I had to follow up multiple times to get attention. At the end of the night, my bill showed approximately $88.50 in food and drinks plus an automatic 18% gratuity. I was told the gratuity was not included in the promotional credit. However, I was not given a full itemized receipt showing how my $120 credit was applied, only a partial receipt for the food and gratuity charges. Overall, the experience did not match what was advertised in terms of seating, clarity of billing, or service. I would recommend the venue improve transparency around promotions and ensure staff are properly attentive during events.

Its a great place for hookah if you're into that. I loved that it was a short wait to use the bathroom after all those drinks. I am lucky I didn't need to be dressed up to get in, I felt so under dressed. I remember this place being another spot but can't think of the name. Unfortunately I was a little too lit to get out there and dance. I was totally vibing because they played my bad bunny! The service was fantastic waited under a minute for our drinks. The drinks are super strong too!!

We had our own dedicated server, which made everything feel really seamless. They kept our drinks flowing the entire time, and it was a huge plus not having to flag anyone down. For food, I ordered the chicken sandwich and it was delicious. The coleslaw on it added great flavor (honestly, I just wish there was a bit more of it). It came with fries that were perfectly crispy--exactly how fries should be. Overall, I had a really enjoyable time.
