Overview

Sparse low key pub is an easy walk down 23rd from Chelsea Piers and good place to take over with friends.

History

Low key, except for the guest list

We called it a sparse, low-key pub, a good place to take over with friends. Its own site adds a guest list: since it opened in 1997, it says, a steady stream of celebrities has come through, Colin Farrell, Dave Attell, Tony Romo, Snow Patrol and Tim Burton among them¹. It's still at 360 West 23rd Street, where a 2026 reviewer found a great wooden bar, a pool table and a few televisions^{1, 2}.
