They make a great Manhattan here. Also a nice selection of brews. I spent most of my time at a party downstairs and it was nice and comfortable. Staff was great and prices very reasonably. Hit it up!
This is one of those places. You know the places you go when you are an intern in the city and you want to meet someone else in their 20s to spend the night with. After that it wears off..
My favorite restaurant. The buffalo chicken salad is amazing, especially because of their peeled celery and carrots as a topper. The steak salad's great too. Actually, everything here is effing great.
Hi Everyone, looking for somewhere in the East Village to enjoy a delicious lunch today ? Why not join us at The Penny Farthing. There's lots of tasty options on our menu! 11am-4pm :)
A classic. Fun at night out with friends, but gets very crowded. I've also gone during the day when it's less packed for a beer and played charades with friends :)
people actually wait in line for this spot at night, HA, but good spot, pretty decent food, large bar, lots of people having fun, and always a broad to be had, good size too Read more
Amy is such a breath of fresh air in an isle of glib servers. Trust her food recs, and enjoy a very welcome "I'm not from here" attitude that results in hand written recs to other venues.
Good place for after work drinks especially if its nice outside. Watch your tabs at the bar, they've been known for adding drinks to your tab if you're in a large group thinking you won't notice.
Hi Everyone, we hope to see you this Sunday for the Superbowl :) $3 Bud & Bud Light Bottles and Draft will be flowing at The Penny Farthing ! #superbowl #bud #thepenny
The Penny Farthing has a great draft beer selection, go for the Goose Island ($7), but if beers not your thing there also a decent selection of inexpensive wines – try the Martin Codax Albarino.) Read more
The food is great in here. Try the steak salad, or the skirt steak and for breakfast try the steak and eggs. Love the steak here. really cool bar tenders. Also has a great party on weekends.
This might have been a great bar if I were still in college, had no respect for myself, was attracted to douchebags, and enjoyed drunk sweaty men shoving me around all night.
Located in the East Village, The Penny Farthing is known for great drinks, comfort food, great Weekend Brunch & our spacious party room located downstairs!
