Perfect dive bar that represents everything I love about the East Village. Mix of local, national and international beers and decent whiskey selection. Great atmosphere and great place to drink.

This may be the best "Christmas-Time Bar" you'll find downtown. Get here in early December for your best chance at getting to write your name (or draw something PG13) on the fake-frosted windows.

Lots of tv's, great bloody marys and buck hunter/pinball. Friendly staff, chill vibe and all around great neighborhood dive. You can even order food in, no problem.

This old-school, major-dive bar—where PBR is de rigueur—appeared in The Godfather: Part II (1974), as the backdrop for a gunfight. Happy-hour specials and daytime hours make this a neighborhood spot. Read more

A great authentic American bar. Only serves beverages, almost never crowded, average priced beer, sports tvs all around. Also, it's the bar owned by Luke Cage on Jessica Jones s01.

What movie/tv show is this bar NOT in? Seriously, it's in Jessica Jones, Rent, Crocodile Dundee, the list goes on! Plus it has a fun atmosphere and great drinks!

28 years ago I met the mother of my children at the oldest horseshoe bar in Manhattan. This place is still a fixture in the east village. Love it.

An East Village institution, you'll often see film shoots at this bar. Lots of inexpensive beers, but you can also class up with your evening with some champagne. A dive bar with Dom P. :)

This is one of my favorites. I live not too far away and I have showed all my buddies this place and they adore it as much as I do. Pretty cheap, great atmosphere and hipster free. High five!

Everything! Bloody Marys (a whopping 16 ozs.) contain, of all things, pickles! As well as everything else... Watch the games in an extremely chill vibe.

Great cozy spot in the winter to warm up with cheap hooch and handsome clientele. Also filmed a few episodes of Rescue Me here. If Leary's in, im in.

A solid bar with everything ranging from $4 beers to Cristal. Games in back. Always a good time.
Apex TacoMay 31, 2014
A bar. I didn't find anything too special, besides the people I got to chill with. Had a few beers, they have some arcades in back and TVs everywhere. Not a bad spot to catch a game or two.
Emily CharltonJuly 11, 2015
Chill bar, cheap beer and pinball. Great for a low key night.

Also known as 7B for its location on Seventh Street and Avenue B. Standouts: the U-shaped bar , the old-time photo booth, the arcade games and the jukebox.

If you’re lookin to get started early, Horseshoe Bar starts serving their signature Bloody Mary at noon, or go for a “Dude” shot – Mountain Dew flavored vodka.
Men's Health MagNovember 10, 2011
If you have the energy to close out a night right, this is the place to do it. They filmed some of Crocodile Dundee and Godfather II here, to give you a sense of its grand tattered quality.

Crazy cozy little bar. It's the kind of spot that makes you wish you lived in the neighborhood.

If you're lucky, then you will find many credits on the Golden Tee game. Use them. Beat my scores, if you can!

This place is an East Vill institution. So many good beers! So many good people!
Katie HughesDecember 8, 2013
Cool chilled bar. Order in from any take out in l the area. Great idea, wish more bars were like this

"It’s ideal for a crowd – there are pitchers for under $20 and it’s big enough to get sloshed and still have a wiggle room." --Helen Zhang, "Best East Village Dive Bars" Read more

Small little bar, but very nice and a good range of beer on. Different sports shown at once.
Alex StillDecember 27, 2020
Old school neighborhood dive. Beer and whiskey. Keep it simple.
Alex RobertsonDecember 4, 2021
decent place with a bar that goes almost all the way around/in a circle. Beers aren’t particularly cheap ($6 bud, $7 yuengling)
Leanne ZMay 2, 2016
Super low key, plenty of space, fine any night of the week.
lOYDA pAGANNovember 15, 2015
Great sports bar. Super low key. Great location.

Great east village dive. Cheap beer and buck hunter. So yes, I end up here regularly.

In The Godfather Part II, where "Michael Corleone says hello!" Also used in Serpico, Sex and the City, Rent, and many, many other movies and TV shows.
RazorfishSeptember 20, 2011
Great jukebox, decently-priced drinks and a bar that goes on forever so it is easy to slide up to order a drink.

Hottest water in the city. If you're cold, go to the girls' bathroom to get your hands scalded.

Great local LES bar. Hit the photo booth in the back if you dare.

Just your typical LES dive bar. $5 pints of Blue Moon are clutch.
