- Ondine BultOctober 23, 2013You won't find and good Irish food here, but they do some English stuff like bangers n mash, fish and chips, shepherds pie. The music and the staff are great.
Keeping It RealJune 18, 2017Great place! a customer stole my iPhone and the great bar tender let me borrow her phone to find it and I got it back! I'm coming here every time I'm in NYCUpvoted Oct 15
Jade LongstaffJanuary 26, 2014Great nachos. Not the usual mound of overloaded chips drenched in toppings rather a reasonable portion with a lovely avacado crema topping. Delicious snack or light meal.
Darrell JamesAugust 14, 2017We loved it! Megan was our bartender, and she knows how to get you in and out of there in a hurry when you're trying to get to the theater!
A.J. HoMarch 19, 2017Irish stew was tasty, and just the right portion. Beata and her team served me well.
Bri BJanuary 27, 2015The food is amazing!! Celtic beef stew is a must. They play house music, not what I expected for an Irish Pub.
Jonathan BrandonSeptember 30, 2015Had the ravioli and blackened chicken special and it was better than expected
D MMarch 21, 2011Great bartender named Patrick .. and a cool bouncer named Joey .. good prices too .. when you see the bouncer joey or the bartender Patrick tell them Donnie the Irish Verizon guy sent you in !!
Mikala HardenFebruary 22, 2014Great service. Great food. Great atmosphere. An authentic gem in the midst of commercialized hell.
Emma StefulApril 9, 2013The rooftop beer garden is great for sunny days like these, and $5 happy hour doesn't hurt either :)
Robert JonesNovember 23, 2013Reasonable prices for its proximity to Times Square, great views and atmosphere
Brent SamuelsDecember 29, 2016Pub options, perfect spot to grab a snack and a drink while waiting for hotel checkin time.- Christopher WalshJanuary 3, 2016It's like 4 little pubs stacked atop one another. Rooftop bar is nice any season. Need to clean the Guinness lines though. Unacceptable pour for an Irish pub.
Denise HSeptember 3, 2016A decent option in the worst of neighborhoods. You're not here for haute cuisine - get a burger.
Amanda McMahonSeptember 16, 2013$60 for 4 shots of Fireball and 1 Jack and Coke? No wonder all three stories were dead on a Saturday night. The "rooftop" is a joke.

"Always my favourite place to be when I am in NY. Love the dynamic."
Atika Al-Bimani - 9.0
"A new, genuine, beautiful musical. It wouldn't matter if Idina Menzel, Anthony Rapp and LaChanze were in it, the show would be really good. But with them it's fantastic."
Jim Nothnagel - 8.7
"Really great lighting design. I hate to say it because the show itself is huge - but get an orchestra seat. It's an intimate show, mostly on stage level with minimal set pieces. You miss a lot in mezz"
