Long and high quality draft list that rotates frequently. Friendly and knowledgeable bartenders. Sophisticated, trendy atmosphere. Crowded on weekend nights. Quiet early on weekdays. Food too!
Peter BoyceOctober 15, 2016Great ambience, excellent beer selection and cocktails, choice music playlist
The only place north of Herald Square (in Manhattan obvs) to drink craft beer. And in case you missed the latest Other Half can release, well...
- Best beer bar in NYC. Cocktails on tap and a cool wine selection. Excellent food too (try the wings)! Love everything about this place!
Steve RossOctober 7, 2016Awesome bar, very cool corner lot buildout, with dark woods and light tiles, and a simple menu with top of the line options
Brilliant beer selection, almost exciting! Prices correspond mind you! Served in wine glasses, either full or half pours. But all beer is high ABV. Only downside I found was there's only 1 bathroom.
Amazing beer list, seriously legit. Beautiful space, killer grilled cheese with caramelized onions and thyme.
As Is sports an ever-changing menu of interesting craft beers and always has great sours and IPAs, better than average bar food, a handful of natural wines, and good draft cocktails by Brandon Duff.
Zack SheppardJuly 12, 2019Cons: Bit bro-y and loud. Pros: the food is great, the beer and wine are reasonably priced and a good selection, and the staff is super friendly and helpful.
Best craft beer bar, period. Menu has something for everyone, and is always changing. The food is also top notch - try the nachos or fried chicken sandwich
Stephanie MMay 22, 2016Really great craft beer selection, friendly bartenders. Mac and cheese and chips and guacamole also tasty. Cocktails just ok though.
Great place for craft beer lovers. 20 taps with various brewer's hard to find wares. They have a book of a beer menu you can pore over but be warned; they don't have the bottles lining the wall 4 sale- Ashley MowreyJune 26, 2018They have cocktails on tap, thank you very much. The beer list is intentionally thought out and they have enough options to stay awhile but not get overwhelmed and indecisive.
Randall NovalOctober 7, 2016Great selection of rotating craft beers and a cool vibe. Awesome addition to the neighborhood!
ℳ𝒶𝓎♍December 10, 2021A cool hidden gem. The experience is rounded out with a chill, hip vibe and always incredible selection of beers and music. The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable
Justin GonzalezSeptember 22, 2019One of my favorite beer bars in NYC. Beers are always amazing and never mainstream
James StewartMarch 2, 2018Fantastic range of beers, available in small glasses so it's not so risky to try a few. Bartender was knowledgeable and friendly.
Best modern craft beer list in NYC right now. With a vibe and food to match.
Alex StillMarch 22, 2019One of the best beer lists in this area and decent sandwich menu with rotating specials. Nice looking place, too.
Regularly rotating menu of excellent beers. A number of sour options lately!
GMarch 7, 2019One of my favorite bars in the neighborhood. Great craft beer selection (always have unique sours if you’re into that) and a good happy hour. Love the vibe too!
John CoatesJanuary 30, 2016Great tap list, run by folks that know what they are doing. Nice food and cocktails too
Bartenders are super knowledgeable, don’t be afraid to ask for advice on what to order! Love the sizing options too
Ashley ChanNovember 12, 2016The beer selection is so unique. Always a fun place to go to chat with friends in a buzzy atmosphere.
Todd KunaAugust 31, 2022Fantastic beer bar with lots of treasures on tap as well as their can and cellar lists.
Alex TsuMay 26, 2017Neverending selection of beer coupled with cozy, dimly lit decor, As Is is the perfect place to catch up with a friend after a long workday.
Don GMay 29, 2023Cocktails were fantastic. Typical NYC attitude. Great beer selection. Nachos huge, built to share, radish? It was good, meat or meatless? Probably would have picked meat!
Marie La RueMarch 18, 2023Impressive beer selection. Excellent cocktails too. Best Happy Hour destination in Hell’s Kitchen.
Matthew SpectorFebruary 10, 2019Cocktails on tap, an excellent local and craft beer list, and solid happy hour including orange wine. A gem.
KarenAugust 12, 2023Good drinks. Great food. Excellent bartenders. Stellar ambiance. The music is too loud when seated underneath the speaker.
Bill McBainAugust 24, 2018Deep beer list with eclectic offerings that you likely won't find elsewhere (or even here the next time you come by). Food offerings good but limited in selection.
Asli SFebruary 26, 2017Cocktails were weak but they have a nice beer selection & ambiance is great. Good for dates.
Emily KolodnerMay 25, 2018beer selection is good-ish (good for the area), but their prices are seriously inflated ($11 for 8oz) and they don't let you try before you buy. food was good, bartenders weren't the friendliest.
Alan MortonJuly 27, 2017Local craft beer! Very very good 9/10 can be hit and miss with some of you don't know your beer
Natalie KNovember 2, 2019If you feel tired of supermarket beers, go to As Is NYC to explore a nice selection of craft beers!
Gianna NebbiaApril 20, 2018Very cool place. They don’t offer samples, but you can order a 4oz beer. Very reasonably priced and trendy place
Great craft beer selection! If you’re trying to catch up with friends, it may be a little too loud.
Ryan PatrickSeptember 2, 2018Great all tap beer place. They might have 20 beers. Nothing terribly mind blowing in selection but a solid beer variety nonetheless.
Charlotte ChanApril 28, 2017Solid beer list and great bar food, clean space that makes you wanna eat here too:)
My favorite new bar in Hells Kitchen. Soon to be yours too!
Cesar RazuriMarch 13, 2023It's an alright spot. Kinda snobby tbh They definitely cater to a particular crowd, which is fine, but complete opposite to something like Scruffy's or Hibernia. They refused sampling a new beer.
