    Perfect pint
    Megan M.

    Like all basic white women I studied abroad in college. In NYC I've never found a pub that had the warmth and a good enough Guinness to make me want to consume carbs...I'm sorry SVW I know I shouldn't but it taste just like Ireland here. A nice bloke named Gav took me here. We talked rugby and "crushed pints" it was a good night. I really wish he had family money cause it could have worked. Sadly he didn't fit the bill, but I keep coming back to this place

    The best place for a Guiesness and my own favorite is the Lynchburg lemonade. Much love to staff, Mikey, Jason, Marko, Jimmy, John, as well as the owner Connor, always showing me genuine love for so many years.

    A great dive bar in the WV area. It's cozy And comfortable and offers multiple seating options. Great for both groups and smaller parties. Random thing to note, I love how many bag/coat hooks they had scattered throughout the bar. It's the little things that really make a difference. Normally at a dive I'd order a beer but they had a full bar so me and my date both got standard cocktails and they were good! I'd definitely come back here in the future. 5/5

    I made a yelp account JUST FOR THIS. BOUNCER was rude and didn't let me in when I was fine. He let all of my white friends but not me (I'm Asian) And when my friends asked why he couldn't let me in, he didn't have a reason. If he had a reason maybe I wouldn't have posted this review. But he just sat there with his cowboy hat. I hope this guy is just a contractor because I would actually like to check out this bar one day. Do better!!!

    Yes.

    I'm a truly simple human. I love good company, a chill vibe and a well poured drink. There has never been a more beautifully, delicious poured glass of beer in my life, than the three pints I had of Guinness at the Four-Faced Liar. My friend and I visiting NY for a week, met up with some friends from upstate and as we were going about our touristy ways, we ended our night meeting up with them at this bar in the West Village and wow... for a bit early in the night it was super chill and laid back. As my friend began to tell the story of her dad coming to this bar and how its names after a clock tower, I felt like time shifted and I was transported to some local pub in Ireland. It was dark, honestly a little dusty and the tables just big enough to fit the amount of drinks for the four us and I loved every minute of it. A fantastic pub out in the West Village, with a taco spot right across the street. Definitely recommend pregaming before some tacos, then back again for more drinks. Also I love Guinness now. Thanks a lot. lol

    Cool beers and good times!

    Great place , not uptight or classy seems like a very cool grunge/rock type atmosphere. Beers were good. The vibe is dive dark. Got pretty toasty and the music was rockin. I'm not sure about the restroom situation, they are in a very strange location. Will be back next time

    If you are a Guinness drinker, this is your spot! I looked up good Guinness bars in the West Village on Google and this place popped up and it 100% delivered. It felt like being at Cheers with a good group of regulars, great bartender (Eric) and a classic Guinness pour!

From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with champagne, which immediately set the tone for a special evening. Our server, Daniel, was beyond amazing. He was warm, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making our anniversary meaningful. It never felt forced just thoughtful, polished hospitality. The team went above and beyond when we brought our wedding cake (which had been frozen for a year). Not only did they accommodate it without hesitation, they helped decorate and present it beautifully you would have thought it had been baked that same day. It was such a touching moment for us, and they handled it with care and enthusiasm. As for the food: incredible. The steak tartare was perfectly balanced and beautifully prepared. The tuna was fresh and vibrant. And the Beef Wellington... honestly one of the best I've had in New York City. Perfectly cooked, rich, elegant, and absolutely worthy of a celebration dinner. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance: romantic, warm, refined but relaxed. It felt special without being stiff. If you're looking for a place to celebrate something meaningful, this is it. We will absolutely return.

The scallops were delicious and the not colada cocktail but at that price point to not being given my food and proper service is a shame.The fish was OK and the sticky toffee was delicious.

I found the hodgepodge of old-timey decor to be a bit kitsch, but to each their own. I came with a group on a weeknight with no reservation. We were seated immediately on a high wood table. Although the bar wasn't busy (there were plenty of empty spaces, small groups scattered throughout the area), the service was quite slow. The server was inattentive and took a while to take our orders. We had to ask her for water three times, searching for her across the room in an attempt to catch her attention. She was a bit absent during the two-ish hours we were there. On the bright side, the drinks were fairly good. I ordered this strawberry vodka cocktail topped with whole mint. I'm wary of vodka for its harsh, unpleasant taste, but I found this drink to actually be very pleasant, tasing like a fruit smoothie you'd get from a local juicer. There was also a burgundy drink served on a wine glass that tasted like the holidays. I liked that one quite a bit. Overall, Oscar Wilde was an okay experience. It's certainly a bar for a certain type of crowd, and the service was lacking, but maybe we went on a bad night. Maybe if you're lucky, you'll be served better than we were.

Unfortunately, our server only heard that 5 of us wanted afternoon tea, and one of the tiers of food was smaller than the others. We also had to pay extra for additional tea, which we were fine with, but service was severely lacking throughout. Our server didn't check up on us, and seemed to want us to leave quickly after dropping off the check. We would have been happy to pay the $65 each for afternoon tea, but it wasn't worth it and frankly, I was agitated by the whole ordeal by the time I left. We were also disappointed by the food items (as they were lacking) and nothing about this was like other experiences we had with other afternoon teas. I can't in good faith recommend this place, nor do I see myself coming back after the atrocious service we experienced.
