Had a wonderful time. Been to many bars in the city - this is elite. Amazing service. Chelsea absolutely made our night! She was friendly, attentive, and had such a great personality that made the whole experience even better. She was quick with recommendations and so welcoming. Great service like hers is hard to find, and she's a big reason we'll be coming back. If you're stopping by, definitely ask for Chelsea--you won't be disappointed! read more

This used to be a bar with cheap drinks during happy hour, but I was surprised when I had to pay $5.50 for Coors light drafts on a Thursday at 3pm during happy hour. This isn't midtown! Bartender was friendly and wings were tasty, hence the 3 stars. But the NYCBestBar chain (which includes nearby down the hatch and 3 sheets saloon) has gotten way too expensive! read more

A good bar for watching sports and cheap drinks. They have a ton of deals for drinks and the people watching is interesting. A very young crowd but fun. They do have a DJ so you won't here the actual games. read more

Great place to grab drinks and food. In the heart of the West Village. Bartender was friendly and helpful. Place is all wood and prices are very reasonable. If you find yourself in the West Village and want to grab some food and drink this is a good place to go. read more

I can't really say what led us here this past weekend other than after a non-alcoholic brunch we decided to grab a drink. And figuring out where to grab a drink in the west village turned into a long game of indecisiveness and then we ended up here somehow. Out of all of the college bar franchise chains this business owns this one has always been notorious for not being the best of the bunch. Not that any of them are that great. But they seemingly are a college bar with the worst deals. I think everything was $10 basically. Or the deal of the day was a miller high life or nutrl seltzer and a shot for $10. You'll have better luck on happy hour maybe but then 3 sheets and down the hatch (same owners/same vibe) down the block have better deals round the clock. I think I was aware of this even in my 20's and not sure what led me to trepidatiously coming back other than to witness a gaggle of girls and one guy order buckets of hard seltzers and take photos with their ring lights over the spectacle. Otherwise, the bar was shockingly completely empty. Maybe the NYU kids have moved on to bougier ventures. read more

Going to make this short and sweet. Ordered a Hendricks and soda - the first sip? There's absolutely no way that's Hendricks... no way. I drink Hendricks enough to know the flavor and that wasn't it. Not sure how this place operates but you're definitely not getting what you ordered... unless it's bottom of the barrel. Next... read more

Off The Wagon - a disco ball hanging from the ceiling - Sports Bars Near Me - New York, New York

If you want to relive your college days as a partying frat boy or sorority girl this is your bar! Nothing wrong with reliving the fun days before adulting really had to start. Along with bills, responsibilities, and real life. 14 beers on tap, happy hour until 7 pm, beer and a shot for $10 deal, pub grub. Typical beer selection but nothing craft wise which will blow you away. Seltzer beers, red bull, and college drunkenness kind of place. Decent mix of old and new rock playing. Plenty of flat screens with the games on. Booths to hang out in with your crew. Upstairs bar area too. Yeah, it's loud in here but that's what's expected of a college targeted party bar. read more

FEMALE bartender upstairs was very nasty for no apparent reason I handed the brunette 20 dollars cash and she dropped my changes on the table which was wet with liquor. She really thought she did something. I was nothing but kind and respectful. Go to therapy babe read more

Stumbled into this bar walking around this area waiting for show to start. Got sucked in by the happy house of $2 off all bar items 5-7pm Monday to Friday. The bar tender was super friendly it has a dive bar vibe very bro kinda sports bar. A lot of people were here for a drink before the show at this hour. read more

Pretty cool place to grab a drink. The street was bustling on a Thursday early evening. It was a bit busy, but my buddy and I were able to grab a seat. There's a 2 hour limit if it gets busy, but I don't think it ever got to that point. Service was fast and friendly. I was crushing hard on our waitress. I felt like every time she came over she was gonna tell me something, like "I love you" but that might be wishful drinking, or because of the 4th Goose Island beer I had within the hour. Ordered a side of Mac and Cheese wedges, amazing choice if I do say so myself. I love the dipping sauce, it was just a small cup of Louisiana hot sauce or something. Most places are so skimpy on the sauce/dip, but there was more than enough sauce here. However, there's like 7 wedges total, so definitely looked bare. Had an embarrassing story at the bathroom. I thought it was one of those solo toilets, so when I tried to push the door open, I thought it was locked and preceded to wait outside. Another guy comes and asked if I was waiting for the bathroom, which I replied with Yes. Then I started to realize the door might be a pull. And yes it was. We were waiting outside like idiots for a hot minute. The bathroom also had 2 urinals and 1 toilet, enough to fit 3 whole people (4 if you're feeling frisky!). We had a good laugh about it, but there should be a sign that says "Pull" on it. Or they did that on purpose for the giggles. Anyways, cool place. Street has a good vibe for drinks read more

Guy with beard working the bar at 1:13 AM refused to give water. He's white, don't know his name. Weird not to give water at a bar where people are extremely drunk. read more

I've been coming here for a while now but haven't been in about 6 years. Once I walked in I was met with the same exact vibe as if I never left. They play great alternative oldies. The bartenders have always given great service and the drinks are affordable for the bar being located near w4. I'm here with my wife and it's definitely our kind of date spot. A wooden bar, good music, delicious drinks and a chill vibe. Definitely an after work spot for its happy hour, and it's clean for an NY bar. There's two levels and tvs located on almost every wall, giving you the best of all sports. I love coming here for a drink before heading to the Christopher street pier. Check it out! read more

Decent bar to grab a drink. Offers a laidback atmosphere, good pricing for NYC, and a cool location in Greenwich village. As the bartender says "it's a party bar not a cocktail bar" so they only offer your beers and basic cocktails nothing fancy. read more

Came here on a Saturday night around 10. It was fine. There's a beer pong table upstairs, which seems to usually have an informal line. No real way of determining order so you just have to be attentive and know where you are in the queue. Pretty sure the bartender double charged me, unless two draft Blue Moons really cost $27 lol read more

Eric, Eddie, and Ryan are very down-to-earth, friendly bartenders who made my friends and me feel very welcome. Thank you for taking special care of us and our entire cohort, especially among such a large crowd. Things to know before coming here - there are no outlets, but there's a pay-to-use charging station. It's a super college atmosphere, so it's very loud, crowded, and uncomfortable. Most people are wasted and enjoying their new privilege of drinking and being away from their parents. It's not uncommon to find girls throwing up in the bathroom or outside. There are plenty of TVs, so it's great to watch a game. There's beer bong on both floors. Stools are available, but limited, so catch them while you can. There's several coat hooks throughout the place. And finally, for a sports bar, the food is actually pretty good! read more

Dope spot in nyc. Came here on my visit with cousins and it was a nice vibe. Drinks were good Dj was good will def be returning

Amazing spot to get drunk and party with friends for cheap. A dive bar with beer games located on the top level and dance floor/bar at the bottom. Great loud music to dance and party to. Entire street is buzzing with people. Depending on the crowd it may take some time to order drinks but the quality and price is worth it. Typical beer selection at the bar. Definitely recommend a night out to party with friends and spend within limits. read more

Wow! Blown away by the service! Jordan is an absolute ANGEL!! And to add to that he's cute too. He let us know that the cheapest thing on the menu was to order a $2 hotdog, which he even offered to eat for us!!!! Anyways tequila sunrises were bomb and he was super patient with us. a+ will return to off the wagon read more

As most dining/beverage establishments, Off The Wagon is still reeling from restrictions placed because of COVID-19. But I must say this place still has a the feel of the bustling chatter and laughter it had before March in NYC. Little Backstory: About two years ago I used to frequent The Step (13th) after work hours to get familiar with the nightlife in the city. I soon found out there were other bars related to The Step- which is how I made my way to OTW. Very proud to say I've had some of my best memories here with people of all walks of life, sharing a drink or three somewhat often. Not to mention OTW has a solid/equipped staff. I hope things can get back to normal to be able to visit this Village staple once more like old times. Pay them a visit and support the local watering hole (they now do outdoor dining) read more

They could not make an old fashioned, no simple syrup or serve a proper martini. Relatively clean. But, what a sh_ty bar.

Decent place to grab a quick drink while waiting for dinner or to sit and watch a little bit of a game on the multiple TVs they have at the bar. Drinks are decent, bartenders are efficient, and prices are fairly reasonable for the area. read more

Rudest bartender I've ever incountered in my entire life. Asked how I was going pay before I even order a drink bc a friend of mine was trying to get her attention while she was taking shots at the other end of the bar and not paying attention to other patrons. Drinks were not good as well. Run from this place there are ten other bars in the neighborhood with better service and drinks. read more

I visited nyc a week ago and had to review this place. I lost my mom the day I came here, my finance and I spent most of the day cooped in a police. Station filing a missing persons report. Needless to say we were distraught. Afterwards we had to get a drink so we came in here and to our surprise, there was my mom. Taking jager bombs with the boys. Turns out she decided turned this place into her home on account for the sick beats and slappin vibes. In short, Off the wagon brought my family back together. read more

This is your typical sports college / bro / loud top 100 hits --- bar. There is an upstairs and downstairs, lots of room to have a large group drink. The staff was nice. The beer selection was mediocre and the mixed drinks were standard. They play a lot of football/sports games on the TV so a good spot if thats what you want, but too loud to watch. Also the bouncer was v annoying on the way out; just kept telling us to "move" as we were on the sidewalk waiting for an uber, legit made us stand 30 feet away before he stopped bothering us. (Empty outside and not a ton of foot traffic) Long story short; if you want to drink with the bros of NYU, here is the spot. Not necessarily a bad spot, but just know what you're walking into. read more

Best bar ever ! Not only amazing bar food but Draft beer always on point. Great music. Great atmosphere read more

I've been coming here for 15 (!!!) years. I can't believe it's been that long but I should probably drink less. This place is definitely legendary. Lots of drink specials and two bars - upstairs and down. The upstairs bar can be rented out for private parties. The best part of this bar is definitely the half price happy hour. Everything at the bar is half off except Long Island Iced Teas. Which is fine because who wants that anyway? I would steer clear of the food. It's all fried and kind of expensive. Eat elsewhere. Also, always count your change. Good rule of thumb. Their beer selection is huge and robust. They have Sam Seasonal, ciders, imports and domestics. Because the whole bar is half price, you can get a pitcher of cider for ~$10 in the village! Amazing. read more

This is definitely a pregame spot. The happy hour drinks were $7. I had 2 tequila rises , garlic parm wings & loaded tater tots that includes bacon & cheese. The music is pretty good as they do play it all. On Fridays they have a live DJ at 10pm & it changes the whole vibe of the place for the good. The service is bomb. The bartenders are heavy handed (good to me) read more

I was not expecting the food to be as good as it was, and the staff was incredibly helpful. if you want to pop into a place on friday afternoon, this is an ideal place to do so. read more

Okay let's be real - you go here for the atmosphere, not the food. The three stars are for the service and consistency that you can expect from the visit. Go with your college buddies to watch a game, grab a couple of drinks and maybe a few appetizers. Don't come here expecting a Michelin star experience. Come for a good time and leave happy! read more

I've been to almost all of the bars in this chain and this one just falls in the middle. They have great HH deals everyday, no cover, and no dress code. This one doesn't have as much seating as the others, AND does NOT carry the deep fried oreos on the menu! Boooo! However, all the other items on the menu they do carry. read more

- Very cheap beer during happy hour (with a wide selection) - Friendly bartenders - Busy (but not crazy) during happy hour - Loud, with a very fun and inviting atmosphere - The upstairs is a very nice addition that adds some much needed space - Beer pong tables - Good amount of TVs with sports playing - Overall "Off the Wagon" is a fun NYC bar. There's nothing that special about it, but that's okay, it accomplishes what it's trying for. If you're going out with friends looking to have a good time, you will not be disappointed read more

This place is solid. First time I came I came. It was memorable so I like to frequent back here when I'm in the city and want to get drizzank for under 20$--seriously, it's possible to do. Happy hour here is a gift and with 7$ pitchers and other drinks half price, you just cannot go wrong. Oh, and they have pong tables, yes you heard correct! Plus there is just soooo much space you can grab a herd of peeps and play or sit and have a round of KiNGS, sweetness! Bartenders are chill and after a certain hour the upstairs bar opens too. Food is fairly cheap and crowd is varying though still cool. Your typical college, after college, and oldies foagies. In warmer weather they open the doors and its a nice breeze and yada yada. Only downside is the ladies bathroom is the size of a broom closet. Surprisingly though I have never encountered a line thankfully. I rock the upstairs pong set--loosing balls over the side sucks FYI so don't be playing no baseketball with your balls either. Keep em in line son. Also stay away from the psychic across the street. She's a mean old crone who over-charges and if she doesn't like you she predicts negativity on your lifeline. I supposedly had an abortion....what a bitch! [not true either you old hag] read more

Love this place they have cheep beer weekends cool vibe not sure of they have beer pong

Great that this bar is able to remain open during covid! This is more of a beer place and our party ordered wells. Our drinks were average but our food items better- would recommend the fried pickle spears!! The grilled cheese is $2 unbeatable price in NYC. read more

Tremendously rude, pricey, and unsanitary. Went here to watch the World Cup since every other bar in Manhattan was packed today. Sat at the bar with family and had the worst experience here. Waitress was completely unprofessional and routinely made obscene gestures behind the counter, Mid tier shots were priced at an egregious $15 a pop, and absurd comments and unsanitary practices were REPLETE by our server. Worst of all, after spending over $100 on drinks and food we were told to leave the bar area because we hadn't ordered anything in 15 minutes with 10 minutes left in the game nonetheless. It was unmistakably my worst experience in any establishment. PLEASE Don't come here and don't support this business by any means. How my family and I were treated today was utterly disgraceful! read more

Looking for drunk and cheap college bar fun in the city with out the younger college crowd?? This is the place for you! I came in here at minutes to 3 on a Saturday night and trekked it to the upstairs section. A nice crowd and people weren't disgustingly drunk but they were (if that makes any sense). Everyone in here was pretty wasted BUT all were very mature and able to stand their ground. Having televisions everywhere tends to keep drunks transfixed from time to time. If its getting too crazy they get a glimpse of the game or whatever sports news they have on the tubes and they let their ADD subside for a moment...just with enough time to restock the beer pong table. I met two of my friends here. They were SLIZZARD. This isn't typically their scene (college-y dive bars is more my swag) but cheap alcohol is EVERYONE's scene at the end of the day. My friends were raving about how wonderful the drinks were and cheap too (I'll have to agree with them)! 6$ for everything in there. Everything! All the drinks were well made and the bar tenders were pleasant (and tall and delicious lol like I like my water) Totally college bar-y but surprisingly I didn't see many college kids. A lot of older (late twenties) drunk and having a grand old time. They also have food which I didn't try but my friends again thoroughly enjoyed some mozzarella sticks. Music could have been a bit better. This is definitely a spot I'd hit up if I'm in the area and bar hopping. It's a good time and there's no pressure. You can tell everyone here is simply having fun and I LOVE that vibe when I'm out. read more

Bartenders are super weird, they act very immature and angry, drinks are overly expensive, and it's overall not the best vibe
