BBC AMERICAFebruary 1, 2018A cozy spot for Packers fans and Darts players. Meet us in the back for a match?
Ki ChoiDecember 30, 2014What can you say, the best and only Packers bar in NYC. $12 cover charge on game days gets you two drink tickets. Cheap $4 domestic beers inside any way.
Obviously the best place in nyc to watch a Packers game with zero competition. Come early if you want a place, and make sure to get a brat! GO PACK!- Nicholas BeckDecember 17, 2012In the ’50s & ’60s, this cozy West Village tavern’s original location on MacDougal Street served as a haunt for the Beat Generation; Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, Gregory Corso and Norman Mailer.
come for a packers game and get a brat! a little slice of wisconsin on christopher street AND and aaron rodgers favorite!- Brian BFebruary 1, 2015Good beers at good prices. This is a great mellow dive with a pair of dart boards in the back.
Kayleigh HarringtonNovember 4, 2014Ciders! Bring a group and fill out the back room with friends. Darts and bar games for days.
Cozy yet spacious cellar dive bar with the essentials: beer and darts.
- Couches, darts, warm woods and overall very comfortable Upper Midwest vibe. Great for a larger group, especially if you snag the couches section.
CharlottesFebruary 6, 2016Friendly dive bar where you can bring your own snacks or bday cake as case may be. YES!
The neighborhood bar that remembers the neighborhood. Always the mix of new and regular that keeps it fresh. Pop a cold one and root for GB. As one should..

Tamara HJune 11, 2012"Opened in 1950...and it picked up some interesting clientele (Dylan, Kerouac and Hunter S. Thompson). Today it's a dive, sports, gay, boho literary bar all in one cozy cellar." (via @ShelfAwareness)
Chris LivingstonDecember 16, 2013Don't miss the Christmas caroling that they do 2 Sundays before Christmas each year!!!! Live band. Lots of booze. What's not to love?!?!- Jackson IsaacsonMarch 19, 2016Cozy little dive bar hidden just off Christopher and Seventh Ave. Fun mix of people, no matter what night.
Young to PublishingSeptember 11, 2011Formerly Gas Light Café, this neighborhood bar attracted many counterculture writers, serving as the backdrop for a Kerouac "On the Road" publicity shoot. Come for the dartboards, stay for the Beat.
Like travelling back in time to your Wisconsin Grandma's basement. Go for a Packers game.
Time Out New YorkSeptember 13, 2010Green Bay Packers fans flood this former Beat hangout on game days. Free Wisconsin delicacies like cheese, crackers and sausage are on hand, as well as the state’s brat of choice, Usinger’s.
Village VoiceJanuary 17, 2014This 1950-era subterranean Village lair provides a classic atmosphere to catch a game, especially if you're a Packers fan.
Mona HamoulyOctober 13, 2013Awesome, outer-city experience for watching the game (Green Bay, that is). Recommend! Plus, Superhuman/fast waitress.
Peter ZanghiDecember 30, 2012A Wisconsinite's home away from home. Feels like you're in someone's living room watching a Packers game, coolest place ever.
DaveJune 16, 2016Kerouac wrote most of On The Road here, so maybe drinking here will make you a good writer by association
Kathryn DMarch 5, 2017Head for the back where it's slightly more quiet. Usually a good crowd either way.
New York's unofficial home for Green Bay Packers' fans. Get the brats! Go Pack Go! Oh and get here WAY early on game day if you hope to get in, much less get a seat!
Amber VittoriaDecember 22, 2014If you are a Packers fan, you need to be here on game day. The bratwurst is really good.
The bar staff on Thursday nights are awesome. Really friendly, fun place. Darts, great beer, and pinball. Who could ask for more?
Cheap drinks, darts and other games, in the heart of the west village.
Paul BuchDecember 24, 2015I only go for the Packer games. But it is THE bar in NYC if you bleed green and yellow.
⚠️Macro Error⚠️September 16, 2013As a Giants fan (my Cheesehead gf dragged me here.) I can say, that the atmosphere is pretty rad.
Tanner GreenringSeptember 24, 2018The Wi-Fi password is ‘itsabar99’ (at least it was in September of 2018)
pinsuda sagooleimSeptember 27, 2011Great bloody mary's for only $6. Watch football and play darts. Quality Sunday funday spot. Read more
Pitchers of various beers, good music on the jukebox, lowkey vibe. I approve
Vanessa BalOctober 23, 2011Table under the coat rack is a great place to watch the game from if u r short!!!
