    Wet city is such a fun late night bar to go to after a day of drinking to have to yummy bar food to sober up (or soak of the alcohol to drink some more because they have great cocktails ). My friend and I came here and were so blown away by how massive the mozzarella sticks were !!! It was epic. And of course I had to get the kimchi tator tots, it's like all of my favorite things in one delicious bowl. How can you go wrong?? We had such a great time, I literally woke up the next morning wearing a hoodie that I apparently bought because tipsy me thought it was an AHHHHH! Real Monsters hoodie. Would definitely recommend popping in here.

    The vibe is a hip chic brewery with a bunch of beer on tap. It's dimly lit and service is very friendly. The wings and burger were tasty. I'd come again but for the price I have to give my nod elsewhere in mount vernon.

    Giant Mozzarella Sticks!

    Wet City is an awesome spot to hang out! The bartenders I've met are very friendly and accommodating. There is a decent amount of bar seating as well as table seating. For food, I've tried their giant mozzarella sticks which are tasty and delightfully cheesy, and have tried their Tuesday special Crunchwrap, which was very delicious and filling (shared with my partner!). They have a good variety of beers and also liquor if you'd prefer a cocktail! Overall, this is a great local spot and will definitely be back!

    Wet city is a local downtown gem. Very casual bar scene that still has a restaurant level quality about it. The cocktails are good and the food is good as well. Service is always pleasant.

    It's been years since I first went to Wet City, and I was a Yelp Elite back then. Not sure why I never wrote a review before now [shrugs]. That said, I visited Wet City this past Sunday, 6/29 to attend a listening party of The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. I came closer to the start of the event and thus I was able to secure a stool at the bar. I like the looks of Wet City - I'd visited this space before it was Wet City and it was in the dive bar category back then, dark and a wee bit gross. However, Wet City is light and bright. Off-white walls and light toned wood (birch???) furniture and fixtures. It gives me Scandinavian vibes, made even better by the awesome art adorning most walls in Wet City. I went with a suggested sour beer, which was OK. Unfortunately I tasted a better beer after I ordered the other, but I'll go back another time for it. Additionally, I ordered a burger which came with fries. There was a bit of delay with my food coming out which was fine given the crowd. The burger was really good! Unfortunately the fries were oversalted and I had to send them back. They came back out with no salt, which was frustrating. Don't swing to the other side of the pendulum, I just want the middle, sheesh. Overall, not a bad visit, but could be better. I'd return to improve my star rating.

    Buffalo wings and Lambrusco

    I've been to wet city a couple times. They are very consistent in just providing a nice vibe. I got wings, garlic parm to be specific, and they were really good! Their wings must be popular because they ran out the day I was there. They have a full bar and really make custom cocktails. I had a glass of wine then asked the bartender to make a drink he thought I'd enjoy, he made a drink with a custom syrup he had just created. Very good! I will definitely be back!

    Visited Wet City for Evening Ritual Vinyl Listening Session: SADE Definitely a more mature crowd for the event, well appreciated. We listened to both sides of SADE debut album "Diamond Life" with open discussion at the end. We ordered the hot lemon pepper wings snd Mediterranean Caesar Salad. Top tier. Cole and Casey were the absolute BEST!

    Shani L.

    Great venue for album listening parties. Smooth mature vibes and lighting. Great for 30+ plus crowd music heads. The menu is diverse and pretty good. Only two bathrooms, so management has to keep cleaner with air fresheners. Street parking is pretty easy. Extra points for art.

    Caesar Salad

    Where do I begin?! Wet city is a beautiful gem! I love that it is a place for everyone; date night, friends, and I've even seen families come in and eat. The owner is so kind and personable and helpful when it gets busy. I love the themed music nights!!! It's a good time!! Wing night is exceptional! They partnered with the Sauce King himself Mr Monroe to bring you a top tier wing. The Caesar salad with the chickpeas are chef's kiss!! The purple marg is a hit and the beer selection has something for everyone. Thanks Wet City for always making me feel welcomed!

    Kimchi Tots
    Peanut B.

    My friend recommended the kimchi tater tots, and they were surprisingly delicious. The fermented sourness of the kimchi balanced perfectly with the starchy richness of the potatoes.

    I'll start off by saying the staff were super nice and helpful with ordering- The drinks my friend and myself got were very bland not much taste at all we got a blue and a pink seltzer kind of drink I can't remember the names of the drinks- might have been Peach, Blue Hibiscus, Mint, Thirst and swoon? My friend said hers was interesting- she couldn't taste the mint- and mine (the pink) didn't taste much like anything- I wish I got the lil smoochie- my other friend said it was delicious. I also got the pickles to go which came out 20 minutes after my friends tator tots came out- but they were the BEST fried pickles I have ever had- The ambiance was chill and the decor was super cute- it was clean and modern. I'll be coming back to try other things on the menu for sure!

    I went to an invite only at this place and as I pulled up my first reaction was wtf? I thought I was going out for a nice evening and now I may need a tetanus shot... lo and behold I stepped into an oasis. Very neat and well appointed , I was flabbergasted. Upon stepping out of the vestibule there was a strong aroma of incense and fried chicken. The door guy asked if we had been there before and then laid down expectations... claim your seat and one at a time come order your food and/or beverage take a table flag with a number and they will bring your order out. It turned out to be a tribute to Earth, Wind & or as my father called them The Essential Elements. A time was had and the night turned out better than expected. My suggestion...get a kiosk that goes to each table or a text to order system because getting up and standing in a line by the front door may lose you a few customers. IJS

    Awesome pub. We dined downstairs for happy hour. Fish and chips on happy hour is just 1 small piece…read moreof fish so keep that in mind but it was crispy, flakey and delicious! I also got a mushroom lasagna and it didn't feel hot enough/ didn't taste amazing after the first few bites. But hoping it's a one off and would like to try some other things. We weren't the biggest fan of the chicken sandwich (I think it was called the chicken royale?) we got either- it just didn't work with the combination inside the sandwich. Seemed like there was only 1 person running the whole downstairs (and maybe training someone else) but he was a burst of sunshine keeping it together. Because of the 2 dishes not really hitting the mark but fish and chips are great id give it between 3 & 4 stars! Will come back for the fish & chips and try something else as the atmosphere was lovely and service was nice. Also looks like they have nice deals for every day of the week at the upstairs portion.

    Stopped in before a concert on a whim and were glad we did. McGinty's has a cozy, traditional Irish…read morepub vibe, and the staff was friendly with quick service. The only odd thing was that our server seemed to change halfway through our meal without anyone mentioning it. The fried green tomatoes (not pictured) were excellent and definitely worth ordering if they're on the menu. I had the shepherd's pie--it had great flavor but was unfortunately very salty, making it hard to finish. Overall, good food, great atmosphere, and a spot I'd recommend if you're in the area before a show.

    29th street tavern is a classic dive bar. i came here around 9 pm on a friday and it was completely…read morepacked. after about 10 mins, a table freed up that my friends and i snatched (group of 5). the drinks are exactly what you would expect from a dive bar (good thing) and i was satisfied with my angry orchard. the food here is quite good. reasonably prices and everything tastes fresh. great spot for classic american food that won't break the bank. i got a blt with fries, which definitely satisifed the craving. their fries were great if a little undersalted. on busy nights service is a difficult thing to gauge, but for what it is it is definitely satisfactory. highly recommend if you like dive bars with good food.

    Now that my beloved 'Cheers' (aka 'Brewers Art') is no more, it appears w/o even trying, that '29th…read moreStreet Tavern' has become my 'go to' spot. It's very much a 'local neighborhood bar'. There's no flash. There are no gimmicks. It's a local bar to go grab a drink and you're not in the mood for the trendy packed spots. It's very unassuming and great neutral space. Anyone can show up, any time. Everyone's welcomed. You can have a good convo w/o having to scream thru it. MASSIVE PLUS *smile*!!! From a musical perspective, all sorts of genres pump thru the system and the ability to make selections is much better than other bars, which is great. It's even better when your selections are getting other people to enjoy the music and their time there, as well. Always a crowd pleaser. Aside from a fully stocked bar, there's a great beer selection. I happen to LOVE ciders and there's always an excellent choice available. The bartenders are always welcoming and accommodating. People come to unwind and have a good time w/o any pretense. I really enjoy the Tavern for that reason.
