“Shoutout to Niya for holding down the entire second floor on her own. She made sure we had all of our bottomless drinks and anticipated our orders, while making sure all other tables were ok. Awesome experience I’m always happy comig to Ainsle for brunch.“
“Really great happy hour until 8PM. There is a selection of wine, beer, and I think a few cocktails on the happy hour for $7, and they also have some $8 sides (french fries, Brussel sprouts, sweet potato fries, onion rings, etc). Definitely a good idea to make a reservation ahead of time even on the weekday as the bar area gets packed. There is a back yard space that's very pretty - I think standing room only but it's a great vibe!“
“Can accommodate groups of All sizes … Grill master is off the chain … Cheeseburger on a pretzel bun are so so delicious … staff is joyful and friendly while the beer selection is one of a kind. Then to all the Players … the music room is wood-based with a vented ceiling both allowing super warmness and absorption for you band’s lower-registered folk and volume-headroom for your scream & shout folk and everything else … what’s not to love … Rock on Radegast !!!!!“
“This is hands down the best sports bar you’re going to find. A total blast. Really well done space with great service. It’s the perfect place to watch any game or just hang out with friends.Kid-friendliness: Kids will love the activities there. Mine does!“
“This is such a casual cool spot to chill, hang out, have a drink, and you are free to bring take-out food here from somewhere else. They have board games, card games, and so much outdoor and indoor space. The price is awesome and has a little something for everyone! I highly recommend.“
“What’s to Share. Claire and Nikki and Cahir are rockstars. Foods is good, service is the best I’ve seen next to me pouring rockstars to those who want to drink. If only you could See my shoulders wiggle and rock right now, you’d get it If you don’t go get you don’t know how to live.“

“Got the pork bowl and esquites. Pork bowl was a good portion and was warm. Pork was tender and well seasoned. Ordering was a bit tricky because you have to use QR codes and reception in the mall is trash. Once I got on the Hudson Yard wifi it was fine. The Hudson Yard wifi will ask for your email so use 10minutemail and a VPN to avoid getting spammed.“
“This place has a lot of place inside to sit and also has an outdoor place as well.Overall good atmosphere and party vibe, good to hang out with friends.They can do better with bar and kitchen orders where you have a stand in 2 long queues to order food and drinks“
“Delicious food once again. Chicken wrap was lightly toasted and stuffed. Took home half. Others in our party had Caesar salad w/grilled chicken. Very generous portion. And, turkey burger so thick and juicy it required both hands to manage. Recommend Doc Watson’s for food and service.“
“Good place to watch a game with a group.The hall use to be the stables for horse and carriages back in the day. It is a huge place with long picnic tables great for a large group.There are huge screens to watch the game. I appreciated that the sound was on as well. In my opinion, that helps to create a good game day vibe.The sad part was there were barely anyone here. Probably because it was a cold, rainy day.We didn't eat but did have drinks. They don't have an extensive menu but there is something for everyone.“
“Nothing over the top. It's a nice beergarten with a decent variety of beers and other drinks. The food was good (some options were out, so at least that means they keep it fresh, I hope) and the service was OK (except for when they had us sit right by the kitchen entrance when the place had most of its tables empty).The outside space is what you'll expect from a "yard" squeezed between NYC's high risers. I personally prefer something with at least some view or an air flow.Will I go again or recommend? If you're in the area or local - yes. Come here specifically - no.Expect Manhattan prices.“
“Went to Planks Pizza for a friend's birthday celebration. Was about 20 of us and place accommodated us nicely in their high top tables. Appetizers are phenomenal here, the different types of eggrolls and beer are enough to go hang out here for. Main pizza I got was the loaded potato pizza, now these are more flatbreads then traditional pizza so can't rate them as such, but nonetheless they were enjoyable to eat and snack on while having a beer. Was there for about 3 hours and didn't feel the time pass. Staff was friendly to our group and the 40+ types of beer are a plus. My only complaint would be that some of the pricing on the flights of beer aren't too clear, doesn't seem theres any discount for getting it other then the wooden block they come in. Also some of the beers weren't updated so it was a bummer to hear at the end to "just pick a different one". Regardless I had an enjoyable experience would go again type of place.“
“Only been here once & I will be back for Brunch if I'm in the neighborhood again. Sat at bar. There is a timed unlimited champagne or alcoholic beverage upgrade. Service was very attentive (we were the only ones there}. Several TVs playing sports but muted one did not closed captions on. Everyone enjoyed their food. Staff was great. No complaints.“
“Great place to while away a few hours on a Sunday afternoon. We took our three kids and they were very welcome (might be a different vibe on a Saturday). Good food and fabulous beer.Vegetarian options: A veggie sausage!Kid-friendliness: Our kids sat and played a quiet game of cards with us and there were other families with kids there too.“
“This place gets packed during happy hour with tons of work groups. I would say they need a few more staff members around 4pm to handle the crowds. Great place though with games and large tables - it’s perfect for groups and not overly expensive.“
“If you like Beer, this is the place for you. Super payback vibe. So many varieties of beers outside, inside seats and Backyard as well. They also sell snacks(popcorn and potato chips etc...) and cheese. M9 bus stop is around the corner it's running every 10min/day time.“
“The service was excellent. They are busy so don't expect to be served immediately. Joe and Armon were superb. Both friendly and worked fluently. It isn't your traditional NYC pizza. We ordered the pizza and garlic knots and they were both delicious. Highly Recommend.“
“Visit Clinton Hall and play with the mega Jenga blocks or any one of the countless board games that they have here. The foosball table is also a huge hit, and it is one of our favorite spots to catch a live sports event, particularly a big Duke basketball game! Drop by for a drink or some snacks, and you wont be disappointed.“
“Went there with friends for karaoke Thursdays and atmosphere was nice. Wait staff good, and drinks fair priced. Can not rank food, as did not have any this visit. Not sure if these were regulars, but if you ever are there when Maureen is, she's got a killer voice and wonderful vibes.“
“Have been here twice over the summer and it was excellent both times. Burgers and standard pub food but prepared well and cooked the way it was requested, medium rare. Fries are solid and beer list very well curated and good sized. Had a Alchemist Heady Topper which is a tough to find beef.“
“I spent two nights at the Hyatt Centric on Wall Street, courtesy of the National Book Foundation. The hotel was right around the corner from the Cipriani, where I got to attend the National Book Awards, and I appreciated that I could walk there with heels and no jacket on a November night in New York. I liked the hotel for other reasons, too (especially since I wasn't the one paying). The woman at reception was friendly, even as she told me my room wasn't ready after I came in off my red eye. She offered me a room with two twin beds if I really needed the early check-in, but I declined in favor of washing up and changing my clothes in the downstairs bathroom. This wasn't especially pleasant (the bathroom could've used a piece of furniture, where a weary traveler might set down a coat or a backpack without having to hang everything in a stall), but afterward, I went up to the lounge, which was quite comfortable. I got a text from reception at a reasonable time, and was able to go to my room for a few minutes before lunch. The Hyatt Centric is a downgraded Andaz, and it was both nicer and more dysfunctional than expected. The decor was attractive, and everything looked good, at least at first glance. Our room was spacious, especially by New York standards, and the bed was comfortable. It was clear, though, that the hotel was downgraded instead of getting an expensive renovation. We had a weird empty drawer, which is where the complimentary snacks would have gone in the Andaz days. More saliently, the shower door didn't close all the way, running aground on the stone floor with an unpleasant crunch. Worse still, the hot water was temperamental. My husband and I both took cold or lukewarm showers. If you want a hot one, your best bet is to take one early in the day. Otherwise, though, we enjoyed our stay and thought it worked well for our purposes. I'd recommend the Hyatt Centric if you're looking for a hotel on Wall Street. The shower might not be 100%, but hey, this isn't an Andaz.“
“We were visiting for a hockey game and this establishment is right beside the Prudential Centre. Sat at the bar and the staff are 5* amazing folks who enjoy what they do and so friendly and great service. We met some friendly good human beings who are regulars as well that were so kind to us visiting from Toronto. Good Guinness on draught and we tried the pretzel (perfect amount of salt and that side sauce OMG) as well as their bratwurst sausage which was fresh and piping hot.“
“If you are in lower Manhattan and in need of a place to stop, have a drink, snack or meal, than you should visit The View at Battery Park. Located at the very end of Manhattan in Battery Park, The View at Battery Park offers the most picturesque views of the NY harbor. Yes, there is construction around currently but you can still get stunning views from inside the restaurant. Beyond the views (of course, the namesake of the place), the menu is contemporary American food, with seasonal and creative/inventive takes on classics. For drinks I have tried the blackberry bramble (twist on a whiskey smash) and the pinky promise (think Barbie meets Singapore Sling - complete with shanken egg white foam) - both delish. My party of four enjoyed the crab cake app and the watermelon salad with prosciutto - that could have been a meal! We also had the gem lettuce caesar to start. The entrees - bone-in pork chop, shrimp linguine, and halibut - were all cooked perfectly. We were full after all this but had to try dessert. One person at the table cited a lactose intolerance and so the staff brought out a delish raspberry sorbet. And the rest shared the banana bread pudding, complete with caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream. We had a rather large meal and enjoyed every bit! You could easily make this into a cocktail stop to try out the fun drink menu, maybe add an app, if you've got plans for tourism around the area or dinner elsewhere. While we sat in the inside dining area, The View also offers garden seating as well as a fun backyard beer garden.“
“Been to their place in Rutherford and Newark before many events at the meadow lands and prudential center and have never been disappointed. Beer always ice cold with a large selection and warm delicious food. Might not be high end like a Michelin star restaurant but for the clientele it caters to you can't do any better. Service is always excellent. Friendly, warm, professional and understanding. Great place !!!“
