    Smithfield Hall is conveniently right around the corner from me so I decided to check it out for the first Patriots game of the NFL Season, which happened to be on at the same time as the US Open Men's Finals that my friend wanted to watch. I was told at the door that there were two "sides" inside and if we wanted to be able to watch both things at once, our best bet would be outside. They have TVs facing out so that you can see them from the outdoor tables. The ambiance and vibe inside and outside were completely different. Outside it was pretty chill while inside it was rowdy, crowded and loud. I was happy to be seated outside, even though it was a bit less lively. The die hard people seemed to be indoors if not for the reason there was no way to hear sound for the TVs outside (I put the game on my phone and put one airpod in to hear the sound). Outside there are maybe 6 (covered) picnic tables in street and 4 high tops on the sidewalk. You conveniently order and pay for all food and drinks via a QR code. Initially I grabbed an open picnic table but the TVs are "owned" by the table in front of them and we could only call dibs on what would be shown on one TV. Kevin was awesome and directed us to a high top that had two TV's right in front of it so that we could call dibs on so that we could watch both the US Open and the Patriots Game. They have a lot of game day specials and prices are very reasonable. There's a big beer menu as well as cocktails, wine, etc. I opted for a topo chico with tequila (upgraded to patron) and had the chicken panini. The fries were excellent and I ate all of them despite my intent not to. The panini came on a pita like bread which was great because it wasn't too bready. I was very happy and pleasantly surprised how good the food was. I'm a fan! Tip: Bring bugspray if you sit outside because I was eaten alive.

    Go catch the game here! It's a true football "soccer" pub. Has ton of tvs great food and drink. It's big and the staff are very nice. Our server Hannah was outstanding ! It does fill up quickly with locals so go early

    We were staying at a hotel down the street and decided just to walk and see what kind of restaurants we could find. We stumbled upon this place because of how cute the outside seating was. The menu is a lot of bar food but very good bar food! We ended up going again on another day we were in town.

    Found this spot down the block from my hotel.. Walked in and got seated asap.. Fast service.. Jammed pack during the lunch on a weekday due to the soccer match was on.. Plenty of tvs, fast service, full bar and plenty of space.. Food was good, nothing too special just something quick and lite to eat before I got on my flight.

    I ordered fish and chips, and the taste was fine. However, the waiter never brought me a glass of water. When I arrived, the security insisted on checking my ID, even though I told him I was only there for food, not drinks. Strangely, he let three other people in without checking theirs. After I finished eating, they added a 20% gratuity to the bill without informing me. I didn't want to argue, so I put down $30 and asked for the bill. Three different waiters saw my request, but all of them ignored me. I waited for five minutes, got frustrated, and finally left 25 bucks with the bill before walking out. It felt like they treated me differently, possibly because I'm a tourist or Asian.

    A bit pricey, good Wait staff. Very attentive to the guests. The kitchen was a little open pretty late and we had no problems getting food at 11:30 PM. Very loud, not a good place to have soft conversation with a friend. Younger crowd for sure.

    Came here to watch Premier League soccer on a Saturday morning. We were a party of 5 and got lucky getting a table as many tables were reserved. We only got beers and got served quickly. The reason I am giving 3 stars is because of service. We asked the waitress 5 times for cups of water as when we were seated they did not give us enough glasses for the whole party. They also refused to change one of the televisions to the match we wanted to see even though 95% of the televisions had the same game on. There are plenty of bars to watch these matches and this one did not impress.

    Jameson Wings
    Kassiel G.

    Wings were SUPER crispy, and I got the wing sauce on the side. Perfect crunch, and the sauce was delicious. The wings were really big too! (6 wings). Burger was alright, a little overdone but got the job done. Plus it was a pretty great size, and it came with fries!

    Guacamole

    Big sports themed bar. Very dark inside even during the day. Good amount of outdoor seating where you can also see the TV during games. Decent selection of beers including their own branded lager and ale. Unfortunately the service is slow at best, and non existent at peak times. The food is not particularly good. The standout dish was the "guacamole", which was basically chips with a tiny bowl of store bought guacamole on the side, for $14. They try to get customers order online, but we had several issues with the payment portal so that wasn't any more efficient.

    Prior to going to a Saturday afternoon matinee, a group of us were looking for a good brunch spot…read more I had Tanner Smiths bookmarked, so we stopped in. What a cool place! It definitely has the vibe of a speakeasy, especially with the jazz band playing. We went with the brunch special which is $35 for bottomless drinks with the purchase of an entree. It pays off if you're having more than 2 drinks and we made sure we did! Bloody Mary's were excellent! The food here was outstanding. I had the 3 Eggs Any Style and my wife had the Breakfast Flatbread. Those dishes as well as our friends were well made and delicious. If you're headed to a play or just in the area, I'd recommend stopping here to eat, drink or both!

We're three young women in the service industry and still felt completely unwelcome--the hostess told us to find our own seating even though the sign said see hostess. The bartender was rude and uninterested, standing 5 min+ at the bar without even being acknowledged. Another staff member was dismissive when closing us out and rolled her eyes when asked to take cash. The overall vibe felt like we weren't wanted, even though it was only around 11 PM. The DJ was underwhelming and the bathroom was vile. The most pleasant part was the below average $20 drinks. For an expensive, well-known spot, this was a very poor experience. Couldn't pay me to return.

Warm lighting, good energy, and a chill crowd make it an easy place to hang whether you're starting your night or winding it down. One of the best parts is the menu. It's super affordable for NYC, but still delivers on quality. Everything feels simple, satisfying, and done right. We ordered the burger and fries, wings and fries, plus a margarita and a mojito. The burger was juicy and filling, the wings were flavorful, and the fries were hot and crispy. The drinks were solid, refreshing, and exactly what you want at a spot like this. Location-wise, it's perfect. The Grizzly Pear is close to so many things, making it a great stop before or after exploring the neighborhood, catching up with friends, or heading to another spot nearby. The service really stood out too. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and welcoming without being overbearing, which added to the relaxed vibe of the place. Overall, The Grizzly Pear is a great go-to if you want good food, decent drinks, a cool atmosphere, and fair prices all in one spot. Definitely a place I'd come back to again.

    Came here on a Sunday afternoon in late March, when the sun is just starting to come out again, but…read morethere's still a crispness to the air. They had outdoor seating along 9th ave and 51st street. We sat inside at a hightop , along their big open windows of 9th; great in between of inside and outside. Plenty of options for a big or small group, or solo! Our server was McKenna, who was incredibly attentive, we never felt like we were waiting or had to wave anyone down. The food came quickly, and was great. Nothing that changed our lives, but hot, quick, and delicious. I can see this becoming a regular spot for when we can't decide on where to go and just want somewhere dependable and consistent. Inside is like a typical Irish pub: long bar, wood everywhere, comfy high tops and booth seating along the wall. Keep in mind that it is a sports bar with TVs everywhere, so they will be playing the major sport of the season. The volume isn't too loud though, enough to hear, but don't need to cover your ears. The bottomless option on the weekend is great, 2-3 drinks and you get your money's worth. The bloody's are good quality, with a good bite of Tabasco and horseradish (I prefer that!) and the mimosas are bubbly forward (they're not skimping you with mostly OJ). The food prices for brunch aren't crazy either. Selection is a bit limited, but seeing as this is a pub/tavern, I think they have a pretty good mix. Overall, would absolutely recommend. If you have a big group, have some common sense and book a reservation, but likely able to do walk-ins for small groups, couples, or singles easily. This is a great option for laid back vibes in HK.
