One of my favorite sports bars in Alphabet City, Manhattan and NYC. Good prices for beer and a good atmosphere.

Jukebox takeovers can't be beat. You can get loud and messy here and no one cares. Inexpensive beers and a chill vibe.

4 dollar High Life, small food selection (ok to bring in food), and friendly bartenders. Home of Buffalo sports, Cub fans, and Caps fans.

There is only one New York team in the NFL, the Buffalo Bills, and you can always find plenty of supporters here for a game, especially a big game. Some Sabres supporters too.

The huevos rancheros was awesome. Loved the live music and spicy food. Will definitely be back!

mini-hockey pro tip: go for the goal every swing you take. Place friendly bets.

Great bar to catch a hockey game, definitely worth checking out if you're an NHL fan.
CasieOctober 23, 2014
Get here waaaay before the game starts if you want a seat. Otherwise you'll be pathetically leaning on the bubble hockey machine for hours.

If you want a bar to watch hockey, come here. Very LES vibe, but they'll let you do anything here!

Oddly quiet for a sports bar with multiple screens going. Guinness on tap tasted fresh, but when the guy next to us at the bar crushed a roach walking across it, we were glad we didn't get any snacks.

Great place to watch a hockey game, especially the Blackhawks! Tons of Chicago fans..

I asked if they had Flutie Flakes, they said no. And Jim Kelly does not own the bar. But they have a great 90's playlist if you pay a dollar. Totally worth it.

Awesome sports bar for Buffalo Bills and Buffalo Sabers.
Jeremy JacobowitzJanuary 17, 2015

Great spot to enjoy drinks with friends and play darts

Great bar for hockey! The clientele does an okay rendition of "Oh, Canada" for a bunch of Americans.
Gabriel HayesSeptember 3, 2015
Best place in New York City to watch a Chicago Bulls game.

Great Irish bartender! Good sports bar.

Fun crowd for Sunday football regardless of who you're cheering for. Grossest bathrooms ever.
Zach KelferApril 20, 2015
It's a dive and that's what you should expect. Good place to watch a game
Andrea KwiecinskiSeptember 29, 2013
Fun bar & great people!WORST OWNER EVER. He walks around and bullies you to order drinks... definitely not Bills hospitality.

The puck drops on the 2010-2011 Buffalo Sabres season Friday, Oct. 8 at 7:30PM and this is the best place to catch it.
