The lunch special here is very apealing. Burger with fries or chapperds pie or steak with a half pint of selected beer for 11,00 dollars, cant beat that in this area. And the brioche buns yummmy!

I went here ONLY because of the the comments in FourSquare. I WAS NOT disappointed. Great beer , very knowledgable bar staff , good service , lots of atmosphere, unpretentious, food, just a GREAT place.

Cate Dunn

Ask for an outside table-there is a hidden patio upstairs in the back with table service. Always ask for the special list, order the nachos , and enjoy a beer from a constantly changing rotation.

Karen

Excellent place to host a small event upstairs for 15-20 people. The food is delicious. The staff are incredible and just awesome. They have helium on site!

Chuck Connelly

By far the best beer selection in the neighborhood , outside patio is wonderful in the spring ( you can stay out their as late as you want now). The blue burger is epic, make sure you get Cajun fries .

Jeremy Jacobowitz

One of my fav bars in the city ! Every time I come in they have an amazing selection of new and unique american craft beers ! Laid back vibe and pretty good food!

Pia

My new fave neighborhood bar that is def a "regulars" type of spot. The dirty martinis are solid. The spinach dip , pulled pork sandwich and Cajun fries are all delish. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

It’s really more of a beer scene. Stag’s Head excels at going beyond the typical roster of Ballast Point taps, so if you’re into deep cuts of craft beer , you’ll be happy here.

Sabina A.

Good for getting a beer with friends. Excellent beer selection , with an upstairs patio . It's also connected to another bar . There is a $20 credit card minimum but two draft beers end up being $14.

Tracey Churray

Great food! Chips for nachos were homemade , great craft beers , super friendly waitress , and a roof deck . Best place I've been to in midtown! GO HERE!

Andrew C

Like any happy hour pub in midtown... lots of people, loud chatter, but quick bar service (plenty of craft beers on tap ) + tables were packed too!!!

DoubleDeuce

Always busy, especially the after work crowd. Decent foods and craft beers . Extra TV 's to watch sports without necessarily having the sports bar feel.

Rachel Lauren Church

Good place for happy hour . If you have a casual date, it works because you can talk and hear eachother too. There's a small outside patio but gets crowded .

Gary Morrill

Great beer selection and good bar food ! Really great bartenders too!

Untappd

Great craft beer on the UES. Great draft/bottle list and a outdoor area for the summer time! Food selection is also a winner!

Dan Dickinson

The $10 lunch special is one of the best deals in this part of Midtown. Generally, much more chill than Cornerstone.

allison

The fried chicken in the Fried Chicken tastes like Houston's Flying Chicken Platter . Yummy!

John Saeyong Ra

Ask the bartenders what you are in the mood for: they will recommend and let you sample different beers . The next door gets a bit crazy so stay here unless you just want to get wasted.

Alan Mooiman

Fair lunch special , $10 gets you one of a few meals and a half pint of certain meals. I always go for the chicken pot pie or shepard's pie . Not super fast service though (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Julia Monti

Awesome outdoor seating on the rooftop if the weather is nice. Great after work happy hour spot .

Daniel Porter

Great beer and awesome happy hours . If you can get a seat outside , never leave!

Theresa Roldan

Loved the outdoor area . Was a great place to just hang out with friends with good beer

Kirit Lezotte

Great place. Played Johnny Cash and great beers big selection of craft brews and bartenders know their stuff

Bill McBain

if you like beer talk to bartender and get a reccomendation. If you dont love beer , but still want to order one the lighest offerings are Chelsea Blonde on tap or Abita light in a bottle.

RDW

pretty decent fair , much enjoy the Brussels sprouts , decent sandwich/burger scenario and specials usually, large beer selection , weirdly tight security, usually decent broad scenario Read more

Bill McBain

16 rotating taps of american craft beer plus a solid bottle list. Knowledgble friendly staff that can always provide solid beerducation or suggest a food pairing.

deestiv

Great apps and good beer selection - perfect place to grab a drink & a bite after work.

Brew York

Carved out of the back of another bar , this craft beer spot is an oasis in the vast wasteland of generic Midtown after-work bars . Check out the patio upstairs .

Veronica

If you prefer your meat cooked well-done, specify that when ordering the sliders . They were very pink. I absolutely adore the pear cider , and the staff is extremely knowledgeable about their beers .

Kino

The Old Bay Potato Chips with Onion Dip (Sour Cream ) is addictive!

Damian Bayona

Beer towers are convenient for the whole party. Decent selection of craft beers .

IrmaZandl ZandlSlant

Birthday party. Wouldn't go out of my way to come here but ok. Good sazarec and the Cajun fries are v tasty. Midtown office crowd

Matthew Job

Great happy hour and lunch deal , servers are awesome and super nice. Great after work spot!

Ronaldo Hidalgo

Great beer selection , knowledgable bartender , chicken and waffles are a must!

Kevin Rickert

Nice selection of craft beers on draft and in bottle.

Michael G.

Solid happy hour deal . $5 beers . Not so loud and easy to talk with people.

Lauren Fresco

Had my purse stolen here. Staff was very helpful, but still...keep an eye on your belongings!!

Ypereiro

Good craft beer selection and nice roof.

Noemi Fernandez

Awesome selection of beer . All of their stouts are incredible.

Alison Flamm

Outdoor area in the back is nice, although can be a little low on airflow for the hottest summer days.

Sinking Ship Records

The bartenders are cute - and they like to chat. So treat them well . It's not uncommon to get a couple drinks knocked off your bill! Consider it a challenge.

Ypereiro

Great beer selection and ambience

Wendy Stough

Craft beer during happy hour is GREAT!!

Miguel Roberto Mangligot

Mike Moniz

Very good craft beer selection

Frank Luciano

Get the Old Bay chips with dip - amazing

Jenn O

Cobb sandwich is my favorite here. Best bar in the neighborhood for craft beer

Ryan Amirault

If you see Bill & Jill here, say the secret code "I love pickles " and get both of them to impersonate their favorite jersey shore characters
