Jeremy WilcoxMarch 20, 2015Is a dive still a dive if it relocates? We'll find out, as this place has reopened in a new home on 2nd avenue.
JC Martinez-SifreJuly 31, 2014Dive bar, for sure, but a sublime and perfected atmosphere of a New York City preserved and becoming of the best laid plans of Louis Winthorpe III and Billy Ray Valentine #TradingPlaces
Brenda ParisFebruary 21, 2017The food is great. There is just a great vibe here, food energy. Bartenders are fantastic. Always a good time.
What OUT for JERK BARTENDER on SUNDAYS 5pm I ASKED FOR LIMES 3X HE BLEW ME OFF HAVING TO ASK HIS FRIEND SITTING NEXT TO ME FOR LIMES HE THEN TAKES LIMES OUT OF CONTAINER SLAMMING THEM IN FRONT OF ME
Chris ScottJune 20, 2015The new location is cleaner than the old one but the bartenders, jukebox, and crowd are the same which is good. Atomic Wings in the back of the bar.- Daniel WSeptember 23, 2014You can order wings from "Atomic Wings" here. The nuclear wings were pretty weak - ate all ten without sipping my beer. Anyways, if you're looking for a convenient dive bar, this place works.
Chris SDecember 14, 2016Not as good as the original, but still far better than any bars in this area. Cold beer. Cheap. Clean lines. Characters.
Only place in an upscale neighborhood for a working person to get a fair priced drink to unwind after work. Mingle with all aspects of life from suits to dish washers in this dive bar from another era
Rodrigo SalazarJanuary 21, 2013favorite dive bar in midtown. atomic wings delivers. i like the boneless bbq wings
Gary WrightJuly 30, 2014We truly don't value something until it is no longer there. I'm not a bar customer anywhere, so I was not one to help support them - but valued their style (& use of their bathroom a couple times.)- DoubleDeuceMarch 29, 2015It still has that new bar smell! Post-renovation, it's spacious. It has no charm and definitely not a dive bar look but some divey patrons for sure.
Village VoiceAugust 31, 2010One of our 10 best Manhattan bars- the dirty floors, slanted seats, ancient bar staff, and old regulars reeking of booze and death are ambiance you want to bottle.
- Travel ChannelNovember 14, 2011Tony met up with David Chang at this “genuine dive bar.” As seen on Travel Channel’s The Layover with Anthony Bourdain.
- Was told the Jerk Wings are very good more of a Grilled flavor stay away from Super HOT
- Not Typical Bar Food was informed everything is made in House and Fresh Friendly No Bullshit Staff
Alex RobertsonNovember 8, 2018a fine UES dive bar and a good place to watch soccer, but the guy gave me my check really early which seemed sort of rude
Jeff YablonDecember 12, 2009Great dive in a neighborhood not known for that. Watching the guys in suits try to score with women you wouldn't expect to see them with is great fun.
Andrew HayesApril 30, 2011Great, great dive bar. Avoid looking into the light on the booths though. They'll blind you.
Sean FlemingDecember 16, 2014This place is permanently closed. But will reopen on 60th and 2nd where the Blue Room used to be.
jayDecember 28, 2011While the wife, gf or significant other shops, buying me stuff that doesn't fit, that I won't wear and is instant joke material, I sit here, drinking.
David NugentJuly 18, 2011If you like cold beer and the smell of broken dreams, you'll love the Subway Inn.
Try and beat Ned Sedlak in Erotic Photo Hunt! Impossible task...
Karl HobartMay 18, 2010Stand by the window and drink vodka sodas as quickly as possible...it's a place for illict encounters!
Sunday funday...don't forget to tip Will and John
