About this business
Open and virtually unchanged since 1864, this homey destination attracts tourists as well as its share of locals. With a long attractive bar, wooden booths and well-drawn pints of beer, it is a comfortable stalwart in an ever-changing world. The menu features the usual selection of pub fare, including burgers and steaks, and also a large selection of Italian dishes and seafood. However, this is much more than just a local bar, and its location near Gramercy Park ensures a mostly upscale crowd. After work, it can be difficult... read more

not interested in party of 1 – I left the restaurant I work at in search of outside seating, a good beer and burger....My GM reminded me about Pete's Tavern...I've been to Pete's before and enjoyed myself....so I was pretty excited to go and get some good food, relax after a day at work at my own restaurant...unfortunately, it didn't quite happen as I had imagined...I was greeted and ceremoniously dismissed by the male host who said "we don't seat parties of 1 outside"...look I can understand maybe having a policy of not all... read more
we were let down – The Bartender was very nice and helped us as soon as we came in. Our waitress didn't seem to care whether or not we received good service. In fact, she made us feel as if we were a nuisance when we ordered our food. This led us to believe she must be in some way related to the owner. We gave her the benefit of the doubt after our first encounter. But when she messed up several items in our order, we asked for her to fix the problem. She then seemed really irritated. The wings were enjoyable, but nothing sp... read more
Good Tavern – Good bar food. Highly recommend the house Ale. It gets a bit too crowded and uncomfortable, but if you can grab a booth with some friends you'll be pleased. I will say that I have NO idea why this place is ranked as having some of the best wings in NYC. They're quite average. Sure they were ok honey bbq wings, but certainly not much better than you would expect to get from KFC.
Great Service – I was taking a stroll around the area with my lady. I wanted sushi BUT she wanted Pete's Tavern. The service was great. The waiter recommended a delicious beer which I enjoyed with a monster burger. Although it seems like a normal bar for some odd reason it was a little more.
Goof for beer and burger – Stopped by early Saturday evening because of its history. Found comfortable neighborhood bar, $5.50 for mug of Stella, $12 for burger; pleasant crowd. OK but nothing special. So now I have been to oldest bar in NYC. You will have more fun at McSorley.
Eh,ok – Went there for appetizers and drinks on a Wed. night, pretty crowded & loud in bar area. We were seated in back end of restaurant in a booth - by far one of the most uncomfortable seats ever. Back end was more low-key for conversation. Got the spring rolls and grilled calamari - spring rolls had sundried tomatoes in them which is jsut weird and they weren't good at all, small portion also. The grilled calamari tasted as if it was left under the heat lamps for an hour, dried and extremely chewy. Overall, maybe didn't ... read more
Listen to the bad reviews..... – I have been to Pete's just a few times and had an "OK" experience. I decided to try it again because I was dogsitting down the street and was too lazy to research a new spot in the 'hood. What a mistake. My friend and I took a booth by the bar. It was loud and crowded. Not a problem, I expected that. The server was no where to be found (which I read in other reviews but brushed it off as a bad experience). When we finally did get our food, the server screwed up our order, TWICE!!! The salmon ... read more
Great place – Not the greatest food in the world, but the menu is really diverse- you're bound to find something you like! The really cool atmosphere makes up for it a thousand times over. I really enjoy this place!
Old School Charm – I go back here again and again. The food is consistently good, and not at all expensive. The atmosphere is comfortable and inviting. I love the old school look and feel. A NYC staple.
