Wow I’ve never felt so confused by the service. I suggested this bar because it was the only place that was open after 10 pm after an our big gallery opening event that we hosted in the neighborhood. We initially sat upstairs, but were asked to move downstairs after paying. The bartender's unfriendly expressions bothered me, but one bartender checked on us, giving me hope. However, when we accidentally knocked over an empty glass while moving a table, one bartender expressed irritation and a manager looking guy immediately asked us to leave, which was shocking. I attempted to discuss the incident with both the bartender and what seemed to be the manager, but the manager refused to engage and kept emphasizing the presence of security cameras. Despite the footage showing our harmless accident, he threatened to involve the police. As a local business owner myself, I wanted to support them, but their treatment has made me decide never to return or recommend it to others. Additionally, I felt ganged up on by a bartender and a customer who judged us without understanding the situation. It's disheartening because we simply wanted to enjoy our time there. The person who dropped the glass and I only had a beer there so we were definitely not drunk. The service upstairs was great.. so it’s just a shame they can ruin the experience like this. Recommended dishes: Buffalo Chicken Wings with Blue Cheese Dressing and Celery Sticks

I was born and raised in Manhattan and The Old Town Bar just made it to the top of my list of old school NYC bars. High tin ceilings, long wooden bar, friendly staff that has worked there for over 30 years, and locals that know how valuable tradition is. I had the Reuben sandwich for lunch and it was THE BEST I EVER HAD! The corned beef was incredibly tender and fresh. I almost ordered their legendary cheeseburger and will need to come back to check that out. Even the men's room has sturdy vintage urinals ( like McSorleys for those who know). In a city that is constantly under construction, its great to experience a real NYC bar. No posers here.
