Matt LindenbergJanuary 21, 2016Amazing cocktails. Go to the second floor parlor for an amazing, expert experience.
J.R. ReedSeptember 16, 2018Final drink on menu (papaya-infused) is fire, so is mole-infused whiskey drink
Cannot say enough great things about this spot.. the drinks, the piano, the ambience.. the upstairs is transporting.
Amy RobertsonDecember 2, 2016Small cramped bar with very tasty cocktails and reasonably priced whiskey.
Kurkina AnnaAugust 28, 2019After they rebuilt the iconic space, it lost its notable rustic, authentic feel. Now, it’s just another bar with sawdust sprinkled on the floor.
Their signature beer is smooth and delicious. Cozy place. Gets crowded easily.
CompassApril 15, 2014As a revival of old time groceries and grogs, Dead Rabbit serves Irish fare and strong drinks under giant wood beams.
Village VoiceAugust 15, 2014It's craft cocktails and punches are made with real artistry, and are some of the city's most original recipes. Read more
VivianMarch 31, 2017The cocktails are described in the comic book in increasing order of intensity :)
Yeison RodriguezJanuary 18, 2015Oysters are great. The restaurant made mistake but then gave us free oysters to make up.
"Black Widow" - Jameson Black Barrel Irish Whiskey, vanilla, walnut, honey, lemon & egg white.
Great Cocktails Upstairs! Check the first floor for whiskey and beer.
loran jonakDecember 28, 2014Good beer selection. Come on Wednesday for their signature beer and a slice of pie.
Rebecca YiDecember 21, 2016Super cozy. Careful of the saw dust on the floor. Place gets packed even on weekdays around noon.
Carmen NFebruary 2, 2018Go for the cocktails- they are special. The food is fine, but not extraordinary; the cocktail list is where it’s at.
By far the best bar in Manhattan- make sure to have an Irish Coffee
Will BottinickApril 28, 2013This place is worth checking out - interesting food / drinks. Lively weekend crowd - can only imagine weekdays.
Heba AbdellaAugust 29, 2014Great place. People are all chilling having fun. Great drinks and service- John MichaelDecember 4, 2014Redbreast whiskey and a burger is how to win at a mid-day lunch. The fantastic bartenders won't even judge.
Erin MurphyOctober 15, 2014It can get super crowded and loud on weekend nights. The bar is also super narrow so be prepared to get squished.
Amy SagarJuly 17, 2015The lamb shepherd's pie is WAY smaller than the chicken pot pie...go with the chicken!!!!!!
my favorite cocktails from issue 3/6: the Jamboree, the Black Hole, the Iron Man, the Shadow Boxer
Rumana SiddikyNovember 21, 2014The chicken pot pie is even better than I remembered it being the first time I had it a year ago!
Aileen TseDecember 9, 2013excellent irish breakfast and chips. try their curry - it's great with everything!
The deviled eggs are so tasty and their cocktail classes are worth the price
Jake PaulJuly 14, 2018Step into a scene out of "Gangs of New York" and have ridiculously magnificent cocktails.
Nicole KimDecember 21, 2014Try the Pirate Queen, it's a seasonal drink that's not overly floral with a hint of cinnamon.
- Shrikant ShanbhagFebruary 11, 2015Awesome Irish bar ! The Irish coffee at the end sums it up well :)

- Amy SagarJuly 17, 2015Brooke is the most amazing bartender...she will make you the spiciest cocktail!
