Girls just wanna have fun
Paula D.

Stopped in to watch the beginning of the first World Series game between the Yankees and Dodgers. Visiting from Florida, we wanted to experience the Yankee fandom. It was very entertaining - as we had perfect seats to see the entire bar with its patrons. They don't serve food, but you can bring food in. We chose not to. We had to go up and get our own drinks. There wasn't any table service. We'd go back understanding that this is a "just for fun" kind of place!

Great place to unwind after a busy day.

Great place to unwind after a busy day at work. Many good memories here. Working remotely doesn't give me a chance to come here more often. But we made it a must to come back for our reunion last week. Drinks are very good as well.

a glass of beer on a bar

Man, I fell in love with this place. Pete, you the man! Came here for a couple of drinks to wait for my beautiful to have dinner with her ladies. Had two beer and just chilling, watching the game and literally scrolling my phone. My man Pete came over and be like" you like Jamesons?" Obvs I'm like hell yeah! Jk. I was like yes. And there goes a free shot from the bartender! Tbh idk if his the owner. But I appreciate the vibe and how I just wanna be at the corner and chill and just have my own personal time. Much appreciated it Pete! Thanks for the shot! Tip them well please ! They really do keep the price low in a area near GRAND CENTRAL!

Awesome local Irish pub, great vibe, fantastic staff, great selection on tap ! If you are looking for your new "local", this is it!

Great music ambiance and crowd
Bill R.

Great ambiance, crowd and music. Guineas on tap. Juke box and a pool table. Sports tvs and Irish flare surround the place. A-ok!

$4 Jose Cuervo
Marla F.

Nice average divey pub. Wandered in when I was in the area because I had time to kill. Searched Yelp quickly for a bar and this spot had good reviews. Sat down and asked for tequila, the bartender informed me tonight was $4 Jose Cuervo shots and I was IN. I originally wrote this review last night as a 3 star because to me it's just a nice average pub. However, Peter the bartender was so sweet because I was by myself and he went out of his way to be super welcoming. So definitely 4 stars now!

Empty beers
Shane P.

Came here with a group of people. It was a decent little place for a group of people. The pool table seemed nice but there was such a long line I think they could do for another. The beers are very well priced and this has a quiet, removed dive bar feel. Could do with some music to lift the theme.

RAIDERS!!!

Beer Culture has usurped Blind Tiger for me as my beer bar of choice in Manhattan! They have a…read moretight draft selection that rotates pretty often, and a pretty good can collection in the fridge. The staff have always been friendly and extremely knowledgeable; it is really handy when you can say you live in San Francisco, what do you have that I can only get out here? You can tell it is a good place in Hell's Kitchen/Times Square when stage hands and actors actually come by after (definitely not between) their shows. They also have whiskeys available here as a sidecar; definitely do not try and order any other liquors, the back of their staff shirt makes that clear. For food, I've only ever had the cheese curds because I obviously have a problem and can't get them at many places in SF. The portions are large and the prices reasonable. My only feedback to them is maybe offer some large format bottle pours on busy nights so people can try some of the more obscure options.

There is beer. There is whisky…read more There are some small pub bites. That is it. ...and it is perfect! Came here to get away from the faux feeling of midtown glitz. Got a nice dose of dive bar and it was exactly what I was looking for. The place is small, it is loud, there is a good selection of beers on tap and some more on bottles/cans from the fridge. Bartenders are just the right amount of "if you're not a regular you're fine but you're not special" and chatty friendly. What you'd expect from a hole in the wall with decently cheap beer (compared to just a block or two over).

Came here on a whim after a long day, just looking for a fun, laid-back night out. From the moment…read morewe arrived, the staff at the door were super welcoming and encouraged us to try out their breaking glass activity. 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.

I wish we had the option for a booth especially since my friend is really short but we got a high top. Server was very attentive and transparent. Our original server was on break so we had another server take our drinks, appetizers and entree orders. She brought the drink and appetizer and our main server brought out entrees. I felt they were both great servers and very friendly. We also got dessert, everything was delicious. Food was also reasonably priced. We also were able to use a coupon code for the appetizer which was great. This location is very nice and clean. My only suggestion is to have someone check the downstairs bathroom a bit more. I used both bathrooms and the upstairs one was way cleaner. Otherwise, great experience and staff. I def recommend and will be back

The whole restrauant was booked. I totally understand that as a business it makes more sense to take the larger group. However no reason for you management staff to be completely rude about especially on such short notice. I called to find out a solution as the message said we could show up a half hour later than our original reservations and was transfered to a manager. Who ever the manager was on 5/17/26 at about 8 pm said ya they got the place from 2 pm good luck . I tried to ask if we could show up a halfhour later than planed as the voicemail indicated but he blew it off and was being very rude about the whole situation so if figured I do not want to give this company anymore money moving forward so I found another restrauant. Shame is now I wont visit the one in Texas where I live either.
