Jean CarlosFebruary 23, 2016Impressive selection of beers. The food was good. There’s a rooftop with a nice view, me and my friends hung out for like 3 hours, it was great. Nice staff and very professional bartenders.
Great bar to hang out before a concert or game at Madison Square Garden. The rooftop bar is great to hang out. Good variety of beer and drinks, and the staff is very friendly and helpful.- The Corcoran GroupFebruary 17, 2012A great spot to enjoy rooftop drinks before or after a game, or to sit and watch a game on one of their countless TVs. The French Onion Burger is our go to food here.
FranCisco VegasJune 23, 2013The roof is great. The cocktail are nice. The Philly cheese steak was so delicious. I was so shocked by just how clean the men's restroom was.- DoubleDeuceJune 27, 2015Excellent spot for outdoor drinks. Mostly a crowd waiting to head out of the City on the train so a good chance to meet new people as well.
Trae FJune 30, 2016Good place for drinks outside. Great happy hour specials for those of you shleps who have to commute out of the city. Ha ha ha!- Luis Javier RoblesMay 6, 2015Local beer, wine and awesome view of Madison Square Garden and Midtown Manhattan! Gardens and cool staff.

Ben FortneyFebruary 26, 2016Midtown bar, nothing special besides location next to the station. Sometimes there are Knick/Rangers promotions going on.- Daniel WSeptember 20, 2014Roof top bar. Decent beer selection. Overpriced. Fun to yell at friends that are exiting Penn Station from atop the roof.
Jennifer GriolaAugust 22, 2015We left without getting a drink- not crowded and servers moving like they were living in the deeeep South...next!
Deltra CoyneJuly 7, 2011There's a new (as in barely open) beer garden. Nice atmosphere, will be great when they get the kinks worked out.
Andrew LoweAugust 21, 2011The disco fries are prepared in such a way that they are truly elevated to gourmet. Simply delicious
Brandy TrummerMarch 14, 2014Cool atmosphere but extremely slow service every time I have been here...even in the middle of the week and not during lunch rush we had to wait about 10 minutes before someone would serve us.
Fiona BaptisteJune 6, 2013Seriously! They take you Cc b/c people just leave... Yea! We've been waiting 30mins for our waitress to check us out. It's NOT busy!
Geoff ReinhardtDecember 18, 2010Bars around Penn Station generally suck. This one is def worth going to. I'd rather be in another neighborhood but this is the best around here.
RIght next to penn station and a great view. Just super pricey!
Betsy KentSeptember 28, 2009on Sullivan St betw Houston & Prince. Wonderful organic coffee and the most amazing, wonderful, gigantic, delicious Popovers in NYC!
My favorite is the grilled cheese with bacon. They also make a kick ass burger here!
AimeeDecember 18, 2011if you are willing to put up with all the old usher songs, decent place to get wrecked.
✨#IamRomdelacrème✨July 31, 2011Only bar in Manhattan that has Berry Acaí flavored vodka!... Now, cheers!
