A cozy spot for Packers fans and Darts players. Meet us in the back for a match?

Ki Choi

What can you say, the best and only Packers bar in NYC. $12 cover charge on game days gets you two drink tickets. Cheap $4 domestic beers inside any way.

ashlee

Obviously the best place in nyc to watch a Packers game with zero competition. Come early if you want a place, and make sure to get a brat ! GO PACK!

Nicholas Beck

In the ’50s & ’60s, this cozy West Village tavern’s original location on MacDougal Street served as a haunt for the Beat Generation; Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac , Gregory Corso and Norman Mailer.

Blake Bormes

Brian B

Good beers at good prices. This is a great mellow dive with a pair of dart boards in the back.

Kayleigh Harrington

Ciders ! Bring a group and fill out the back room with friends. Darts and bar games for days.

DoubleDeuce

Couches , darts , warm woods and overall very comfortable Upper Midwest vibe. Great for a larger group, especially if you snag the couches section.

Ruby Anaya

Cozy yet spacious cellar dive bar with the essentials: beer and darts .

Charlottes

Friendly dive bar where you can bring your own snacks or bday cake as case may be. YES!

Thomas C

The neighborhood bar that remembers the neighborhood . Always the mix of new and regular that keeps it fresh. Pop a cold one and root for GB. As one should..

"Opened in 1950...and it picked up some interesting clientele (Dylan, Kerouac and Hunter S. Thompson). Today it's a dive, sports , gay, boho literary bar all in one cozy cellar." (via @ShelfAwareness)

Chris Livingston

Don't miss the Christmas caroling that they do 2 Sundays before Christmas each year!!!! Live band . Lots of booze. What's not to love?!?!

Jackson Isaacson

Cozy little dive bar hidden just off Christopher and Seventh Ave. Fun mix of people, no matter what night.

Young to Publishing

Formerly Gas Light Café , this neighborhood bar attracted many counterculture writers, serving as the backdrop for a Kerouac "On the Road " publicity shoot. Come for the dartboards , stay for the Beat.

Harry Raymond

Like travelling back in time to your Wisconsin Grandma's basement . Go for a Packers game .

Time Out New York

Green Bay Packers fans flood this former Beat hangout on game days. Free Wisconsin delicacies like cheese , crackers and sausage are on hand, as well as the state’s brat of choice, Usinger’s.

Village Voice

This 1950-era subterranean Village lair provides a classic atmosphere to catch a game, especially if you're a Packers fan .

Jaclyn R

Casual bar with games. Can get a bit crowded/warm. Decently priced drinks

Peter Zanghi

A Wisconsinite's home away from home. Feels like you're in someone's living room watching a Packers game , coolest place ever.

Mona Hamouly

Awesome, outer-city experience for watching the game (Green Bay , that is). Recommend! Plus, Superhuman/fast waitress .

Dave

Kerouac wrote most of On The Road here, so maybe drinking here will make you a good writer by association

Kathryn D

Head for the back where it's slightly more quiet . Usually a good crowd either way.

Ethan H.

New York's unofficial home for Green Bay Packers' fans. Get the brats ! Go Pack Go! Oh and get here WAY early on game day if you hope to get in, much less get a seat!

Amber Vittoria

If you are a Packers fan , you need to be here on game day. The bratwurst is really good.

Roxanne Christenson

Love The Pack and the loyal team at The Kettle - THANKS!

The bar staff on Thursday nights are awesome. Really friendly , fun place. Darts , great beer , and pinball . Who could ask for more?

All Wisconsin bar with well priced drinks and a rustic feel like you're in a cabin

Cheap drinks , darts and other games, in the heart of the west village .

I only go for the Packer games . But it is THE bar in NYC if you bleed green and yellow.
