Confused so as to why this place only has a 7.9. It's great! The Dead Poet cocktail is so good, and you get to take the jar home! Grab yourself a rum and coke and get gelato at Amorino!
Best little pub to catch whatever game is on TV (they’ll gladly change the channel for you) while enjoying a perfect Guinness with a surprisingly delicious Buffalo Chicken Sandwich .
Guinness crowned with a shamrock, double cooked Thai chili wings , and great conversation with regulars and bartenders alike. Can't go wrong. Shouts out to K.C., Tim, and Matt. Make ya feel at home!
Love this place. It has such charm, free popcorn , good service , and themed cocktails ! Yes please!
A wide selection of Irish whiskey goes well with free popcorn , and the signature Dead Poet cocktail is lethal.
This place has sentimental value to me. It was my hh bar when I was a teacher . When it’s crowded it can be frustrating to manage. The beer is well selected and the free popcorn is much appreciated.
Very good happy hour with $5 Bloody Mary/mimosa pints (all day weekends till 8pm) and $4 beers most weekdays. Very good food menu too. Relaxed atmosphere covered in literary quotes from all the greats
Small little pub in the upper west side. Patio for a pint and people watching . Was thinking this would be a cozy place to have a pint in the winter!
Omg so good! If you order their Dead Poet cocktail , you can take the glass home! Pretty dope!
The Gringo Nachos with pulled pork were amazing, and the toppings were really well dispersed. Not just cheese on top like you often get
With some great house cocktails and a wide selection of beer on tap , it is a much more pleasant place to sit down and nurse a drink.
Great, chill bar in between a bunch of fratty nonsense. Fantastic bloody marys with a great 2 for 1 deal on Sundays. Awesome old school rock too!
Their signature Dead Poet drink is a must-try -- tastes kinda like grape juice , but the mix of 7 liquors will get you buzzed quickly. Bonus: you also get to take your glass home with you!
Small place. They have beer so that's good. Also if you drink 100 pints of Guinness at that bar you can get your name on the wall
Best little pub on the Upper West Side. Best Guinness in NYC and with 17 other brews on the cleanest taps around. Good eats too. Great staff , locals + worldly travelers = for fun days and nights.
I love this place, but must share that we saw a bunch of baby roaches crawling on the walls last night. Still ordered food, though, because it's so damn good. Frying kills them, right?
Order a Dead Poet & have a good night. Order a 2nd & have a GREAT night. But don't order a 3rd if you want to remember any of it.
Great little bar . Great service. Great day crowds and evening crowds. Mostly regulars hanging out. Home.
Great bar - good food, fun bartenders and chill crowd. Love to sit in there outside area on a nice day an have some beers
Sundays are happy hour all day. Everything Bagel fries are redonk. Nice draught selection , no rudies, cool lightbulbs.
They have daily specials that are kickass and a lot of specialty cocoktails (about 12$)
This pub-type bar has a very subdued, quite ambiance. Go here if you'd like to actually hear the person you're talking with. I recommend!
If you can get past the narrow opening there's plenty of room to enjoy your beer in the back.
Fun atmosphere , great drinks and free popcorn ! If you’re a Guinness fan this is a must-visit!
The everything bagel fries were great! Good pricing, friendly staff .
The fact that their "mixed basket" exists makes me very happy.
Skinniest bar in NYC. Food comes from keeley's, so everything is good.
Classic but narrow bar , probably one of the better ones in an area stuffed with bro bars .
If you share a birthday with a famous author, drink free on your special day!
Great atmosphere and free popcorn . Also free wifi . Just as for the password.
Never cater to a hater, just say later. Focus on people with good energy and good karma, it equals good times.
Brunch food is surprisingly good and $5 bloodys or mimosa are huge
love the intimate setting . and they have sweet potato fries to go with cider . Read more
The place its too frikin tiny and narow, even when there are 8 people in it, u have to squeeze through the crowd.
Wonderful Guinness !
They have hot dogs .
Awesome bar in the Upper West Side.
Go here for the juke box and a chill bar scene. Decent food available from the co-owned joint across the street.
Ask for the Gringo Nachos , you won't ever eat anything better in your life again.
Great little pub if you can score a table.
Nice little spot on the UWS. Name alone is enough to get me in.
Enjoy a perfectly poured pint or salute a literary pioneer with a long island style cocktail
The Upper West Side Work From Home Meeting meets here monthly!
Great music and atmosphere
Jerry is best bartender on uws and we enjoyed our free shot of wild thanksgiving shots
The Guinness pour is great, the bartenders friendly , and the music is cool. My favorite local pub on the Upper West Side! Read more
Best Guinness I've ever had!
Get a Dead Poet. Glasses worth collecting. Pair it with some fries , cause they're goooood.

Tons on tap, surprisingly good bar food. Anything fried (wings, rings) or burgers are great. Also a killer brunch. - Ryan
