Parkside Lounge

Make no mistake, this is not a dive bar. It's an intergalactic pirate ship destined for greatness.

One of the best dive bars in LES/EV. Pool, ski ball, foosball . Inexpensive drinks, never too crowded and just a fun spot overall. Always a go-to.

Ray Lin

Pretty cheap pitchers , allowed to bring outside food in, foosball and pool tables , and big TVs for sports . Proximity to East River Park makes it the perfect postgame spot after group sports .

Jim Taylor

arkside Lounge attracts an eclectic crowd throughout the day and night. The vibe is super casual and unpretentious, with lots of folks enjoying themselves on one of the many different games available. Read more

If you're a bored to death (Jonathan Ames, Jason schwartzman,Big Lazy music band, Raymond Chandler,Philip Marlowe, White Wine sipping Pot smoking PI) fan you have to checkin here. It's mandatory.

Tanya Elder

One of the last five bars in the neighborhood , I’ve been celebrating life here for years. Love this place.

Jared Cox

Phenomenal management and great staff . Potentially more importantly they have a great pool table . Folks seem to abide by 8 ball rules.

Sara 🌈⚔🍾

Attended and hosted many events here - Love their event space in the back! The skeeball and video games are a great touch. Good prices too.

DoubleDeuce

The back room is great for events . Sometimes music , other times up-and-coming comedians practicing their craft and supporting each other through it.

Jack Osborne

Kind of off the beaten track but if you're close by it's worth a stop. Good vibes and cheap drinks .

Earl Dax

Stop by the Parkside on Tuesday nights for DJ Andrew Andrew's residency, "C U Next Tuesday." A great low-key evening for conversation and cocktails with occasional shows in the back room.

ECava

Such a great spot! Dive bar without the unsanitary, need-to-wash-your-hands-after-touching-anything feeling. Pro tip: Frozen Pickleback ! (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Suki

Dive with cheap PBR and pool. Live music venue in the back with a cover. The photo booth takes cool, grainy film photos.

Rupert Noffs

An oldie...but, an oh-so-goody! Sinks some solids...have a beer ...watch some cheap downtown cabaret - or dance to AndrewAndrew every Tues eve!

Carol

The guy, Michael, who runs the Inspired Word open mic , is unfriendly and unamused and if he sees you walk in without paying the cover, he will hunt you down. Cool event , but def will not go back

Sass Conf

Off the beaten path favorite. Cheap drinks , pool. Live music in the back. Good for large parties

Andrew Andrew

AndrewAndrew DJs on Select Tuesdays. And always with the newest gear!

Ray Lin

Foosball , skee ball , friendly bartenders and happy hour til 8pm err'y day. A LES staple.

Jean Celso

Cute bar until one of the staff blatantly steals your gloves when closing down the stage rooms and denies it when you come looking for them before ever even leaving the bar ..

Trae F

Cheap beer , live music , and a photo booth . How could you go wrong? @artsaturdaynyc was here.

Jordan M

They make their own pickle juice , what more needs to be said?

Tim Mambort

Best living room ever. Great happy hour and normal bartenders . And always Parkside the beer to a 24oz.

Amy Bilancini

easily one of the best bar pool tables in NYC . the felt is clean , not super worn, and the table is level which is exceedingly hard to find these days.

Daniel Udell

Get a St. Charles with BULLDOG. They make their own pickle brine.

pamela froese

foosball , photo booth , pool, pac man!, jukebox & piano key wall tiles. PBR on draft & a cool, eclectic crowd. heaven on earth - i hear wednesdays trivia at 9 gets rowdy

Ashley Rose

Order in/bring take out for a pre-trivia meal on Wednesday nights.

Rich Gallagher

Have a mystery beer ($3 - their blind choice) and play pool at one of the best dives in NYC.

Christopher Lee

If you beat the owner at foosball he'll buy you a drink. He's around all the time and he goes by Johnny Warrior.

Josh Mateo

Awesome pickle back . Spicy jalepaño flavor

Time Out New York

Play pool , use free wi-fi, and get $3 Miller High Life, Budweiser , Negra Modelo Especial and well drinks from 1 to 8pm daily. Read more

Essence Karter

My boyfriend’s first performance took place here today... it will forever be lengendary 💙

J Crowley

This place can smell like dead hipster sometimes. But the tiny pool table makes up for it. Bring on your quarters.

Maggie Walsh

Trivia was fun, not super competitive or regulated. Cheap drinks .

JenKudu

There's a performance space in the back. Check out some good burlesque shows !

Adrian Rose Amaro

Variety Underground- first Thursday of every month! Also love the $3 mystery beer .

Bu Dhavi

I've never witnessed such a disgraceful treatment of musicians until 12/3/13. The event coordinator harassed a band leader in front of his audience and peers. I will never step foot in this bar again

Tina Tassels

I love this place. Even more so bc I ran into the parents of the little girl I babysit while getting ready for a strip show. oopsies!

Veronique V

Best dive in the city . Bring some takeout and enjoy some cheap beers and the photo-booth.

Peter Kelly

Good trivia night on Wednesday.

Sean Curry

Best place to end a big stupid night with big stupid people.

hyperjetlag

Abby

Bartender is super friendly and... there's a foosball table !

Alex Mitow

Come for a beer , stay for life.

KristaNini

I love coming here on Tuesday when the Andrews are dj-ing!

David Molnar

Richard Louie

The foursquare special 50% off doesn't work. Bartenders refuses to give out the buy one get one free.

Andrew Andrew

After work drinks with AndrewAndrew pretending to DJ every Tuesday night 8 till late!
