I had an excellent delivery order of fish & chips and a salad from this Irish Pub. The Irish Ale Battered Fish & Chips came with three nice sized pieces of cod...delicious, fresh tasting and a generous portion, with a nice puffy beer-batter, juicy wedge of lemon and tartar sauce on the side. The fries were a straight cut. I would have preferred them a little crispier, but delivered fries usually steam and soften in the container during transit. The House Salad was excellent...very fresh and crisp with a tasty balsamic vinaigrette on the side. In all, a very fine meal! Delivery was prompt and packing was well done. Highly recommended. read more

Plenty of bars in this district and I have not visited them all but at least here at P McDaid, I was able to find my two favorite dishes on the menu which is the French Onion Soup and Shepard's Pie. Food was easy to order and they came pretty quick. The Shepard's Pie was creamy and fairly filling for 1 person, piping hot. The soup was perfect and not overly seasoned. Both were perfect for the night. Service was decent as this bar was filling up fast. Noise level was high but manageable. Cost was average for around $15 per item. I come back here for these two dishes again. read more

Walking around midtown all morning, we were looking for a place for lunch, and we found this place and stumbled in. Located roughly halfway between Times Square and Central Park, it's in a good spot for tourists like us. Even at noon on a Wednesday, there were plenty of people at the bar, so I can imagine how rowdy and fun it gets on a weekend. It was pretty quiet in the dining area, just a few other patrons. My girlfriend and I both ordered the house brew which was an amber ale. We're both big beer nerds and thought it was excellent. My girlfriend ordered the specialty burger and I ordered the turkey burger. Both were huge, stuffed with toppings, perfectly cooked, and came with more than enough fries. We both left in a food coma, highly satisfied. We would definitely come back the next time we're in the city and would recommend to others looking for a laid back place with friendly faces and quality comfort food. read more

McDaid's Irish Pub was the perfect first stop on my first night in NYC! A lively, authentic Irish pub with great beers, friendly staff, and hearty pub food. The team was attentive and full of great menu suggestions. I went with something unique, the Irish curry fries topped with melted cheese and rich curry sauce, and they were fantastic! Paired perfectly with a cold Guinness. This establishment is a warm, welcoming spot with delicious comfort food. Highly recommend if that's your motto! read more

P McDaid's Irish Pub - Irish Curry Cheese Fries Plate - Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Very spacious Irish bar with plenty of seats and a rich menu of food and spirits. After getting a couple of beers, we tried their Spiked hot chocolate (Bailey's Irish Cream) and did not look back. True, it is $16, but also delicious (and it comes with marshmallows). We also tried their curried fries with melted cheese and they were yummy. Overall, we enjoyed the un-rushed service, Christmas decorations and availability of tv screens. Good vibe. read more

Lots of TVs for sports fans. Staff was incredible. We ordered the french onion soup and it was perfect!! Right amount of everything!! Hubby had Bangers and Mash and I had Fish and Chips again PERFECTION!! Waitress was sooo friendly and just the right amount of attentive. Highly highly recommend for perfect inclusion to your Broadway experience. For us we started a new tradition. We will be back -- you can never ever go wrong with an Irish Pub!! read more

What a chill place. Cool bartender from Hells Kitchen with even cooler stories of growing up in the gritty NY or a time bygone. Strong drinks. A great place to sit and relax off the bustle of 53rd. Food options are on the heavy side (and average portions). 5+ for atmosphere. read more

We didn't dine in at P. McDaid's -- just ordered takeout since it's right across the street from us. The food was ready quickly and still hot when we got it home. The buffalo chicken wings were so good! I'm pretty picky when it comes to chicken -- I like it cooked just right and not greasy -- and they nailed it. The flavor had a nice kick without being too spicy, and the meat was tender. This was our first time ordering from here, but it definitely won't be the last. I'm looking forward to trying more items from their menu soon. read more

Oh my gosh!!! GO! So delicious! They were slammed but we still got our food quickly. The server forgot our cider so we didn't get to try the specialty drinks. The restaurant was decorated nicely and was warm. I had French onion soup, steak sandwich and friend had the Shepard's pie. Flawless!!! read more

Great Irish pub if you're near Central Park. We stopped in after running a 5k and it was perfect. I ordered a French onion soup which was savory and satisfying. My husband got the Chicken Pot Pie which was huge! And so creamy. Definitely coming back for this one. And then I took a chance ordering a chicken quesadilla at an Irish bar but it paid off. One of the best quesadillas I've ever had. read more

I found myself in NYC meeting friends after a late flight on Christmas Day (11 pm). All of the bars/restaurants were closed or closing. We walked here and it was open! The ambiance was lively and the waitstaff was accommodating. We had the buffalo wings and the fish and chips (which was very good). We also had the French onion soup which was just okay and I would likely not order again if I happen to stop by here. read more

Open late, quick, friendly service. Guinness wins every time. If hungry, look for the 3 "specialties" on the menu, tried 2/3 and they were absolutely bangers and mash. read more

Great casual place if you're in and are around the theater district. The service was friendly and fast. We got the fresh and cooked to order (med rare) burger. Was really surprised how good the burger was. We also split chicken quesadillas. They were just your standard run of the mill quesadillas which.

A true Irish bar with good food and drinks. They passed the Guinness test which is a staple of Irish pubs. A great pint of Guinness to start the night off. They have 4 Guinnesses on draft. This place has only been here for 6 months and they are well on their way. The service is A+ with everyone making you feel welcome, and even helping to score those treasured bar seats in-front of 2 big screen 60' TVs perfect for watching any sports game. Kieran and Mike work behind the bar and is a great bartender. All the staff are friendly. The ambiance feels like an Irish bar with lofted ceilings, making it feel more upscale than your average Irish bar. The shepherds pie is something next level. Hands down one of the best shepherds pie I have ever had. Easy 10/10 I can easily recommend this spot for anyone who is looking for good food and drinks without having to spend a fortune. Amenities: wifi, big TVs, Guinness, full bar, great staff. I would recommend this place 100% read more

Welcome to the neighborhood! P. McDaid's is an Irish pub on 7th Ave at 54th Street. While they just opened a couple months ago, I felt right at home in this cozy and nicely decorated establishment. The windows are non-transparent and you can step right out of the hustle and bustle of Midtown, as if transported to a quieter, happier place. The menu covers a lot of familiar pub terrain, extending to shepherd's pie, fish and chips, burgers, and a number of salads. Feeling peckish, I ordered the reuben sandwich ($21), served with fries, and a pint of the house ale ($8). These prices are about right for this kind of establishment in Midtown, and luckily the food was tasty and the beer nice and cold. My companions also enjoyed their food and drink. The music selection covered a good amount of pop territory, a little something for everyone. Service was attentive and we got what we wanted. I'm glad this pub can bring comfort and familiarity to one of the busiest places on Earth. read more

Pete McDavid's is the kind of Irish pub that makes a first trip to New York feel like you've already got a local spot. I popped in on a whim and ended up staying longer than I planned because the people and the staff were that good. The bartender was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly, and the regulars around the bar made everyone both tourists and first-timers included, feel like part of the crowd. It has that rare mix of authentic Irish company, easy conversation, and relaxed atmosphere that you just don't find everywhere. I'd recommend P. McDavid's to any regular, tourist, or anyone visiting New York who wants a welcoming pub that feels like home the moment you walk in. read more

What a great place to grab a beer and listen to great music on a Saturday night. A must go if you are in the Carnegie Hall area.

Great menu of standard irish pub food, very yummy, and fresh. Inside, it felt like we were not in NYC at all which was nice.

My go to Irish close to my job . I like how open the space is ( compared to other places that seem more narrow , darker , etc ). One of the bartenders already know my drink order every time I come in and I like how well taken care of I feel ( quick , fast and attentive service ). I've had the bar food and they're to be expected. We had the platter to satisfy everyone's craving - wings , mozzarella sticks , Chicken tenders. Prior to this visit , we ordered the mini burgers and nachos. Now that it's summer, they have outdoor sitting . The location is in between Times Square and Central Park . It's a good place to stop by for a beer or two! read more
