The Penny Farthing

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.

Their lunch special is extremely generous and delicious. Really enjoyed it. Sit outside and have a drink.

My go to lunch place when I am in the area! Great lunch deals and beer selection . Order the chicken sandwich with chipotle mayo - you won’t regret it.

A fratty and crowded bar by night. We prefer to come here on a lazy Sunday afternoon for their $6 sangria special.

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 :)

Curly fries are tasty and a great value for only $5 per huge serving. Great spot to watch games; several large TVs throughout the dining area.

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.

Happy hour wines are $5 and a very healthy pour. Good after work crowd and good place to dance on the weekends.

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

I've been here for brunch and it's really yummy. I like the decor of the place too. Their challah French toast is awesome.

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.

Buffalo Mac & Cheese is delicious. They have a good beer selection . It could get very crowded during peak hours.

Crowded but huge place. Sit at the bar if it's just for drinks or have to order something to eat to have a table...as usual. Wine is good

Dope spot. Always a great time. A lot of room upstairs and down, and downstairs can be fun when they turn the lights off.

This place can get pretty crowded on the weekends. If you can't get to the bar , there's another one downstairs that may save you time.

Burger is fantastic. Pair with waffle fries . $11.

Divine steak salad . Lunch time price is $9! Unbeatable.

Great brunch ! Lots of options, very reasonable prices, and comes with a Mimosa or Bloody Mary .

Nice place to have brunch , price is various up on choice and complimentary mimosa Bloody Mary etc...

Great atmosphere to enjoy and awesome food! Loved "Irish mule" drink

Go for brunch ! Complementary Drink and the food was great!

We take Burger and Ceasar Salad and both of them were pretty solid, and finally sour pickles !

Come here to get rowdy. If you get food, the short rib sandwich with tots is on point!

Young crowd, but a fun bar none the less!

Bro bar . Gets very crowded at night. But happy hour on the weekdays are quiet and chill

Great brunch with a lot of choices and complimentary drinks!

Spacious , great menu, and large bar . Good for a happy hour .

Dear penny farthing my name is max I love your restaurant and the grilled cheese is awesome and the tv is great too

$5 wine happy hour !

Great customer service & bar staff ! Casual yet classy environment . Get the Cajun shrimp ... Very tasty!

Delicious Pama cocktail with brunch or in the morning!

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.

People say it's a bro bar...people are right...that being said, I have been here many times..sorry I'm not sorry

Always show love to Zack and/or John at the door - great peeps.

If you're looking to meet drunk college kids in NYC, this is the place to do it! Book the downstairs area for your birthday.

Good brunch deals . Each brunch item comes with a complimentary bloody mary or mimosa . Perfect "hair of the dog."

French toast during brunch is outstanding!

Happy Hour at The Penny today! 4-8pm. 40-50% off Beer , wine & Well Drinks ! :)

Happy International Women's Day to all the lovely ladies in our lives! Come and raise a glass at The Penny Farthing today! :)

Good for people watching , happy hour , and late night downstairs .

Wonderful Tuna salad for lunch ! Gluten free and delicious!!

It's a bar . With a heavily wooden decor. And a modest beer selection . A nice fall-back, I suppose. (Didn't order food.)

A free drink with your (affordable ) bunch, can't complain about that.

Lovely East Village bar . Great brunch .
