Overview

Tall ceilings, a long bar with plenty of stools and a relaxed low key crowd make for a great place to drop in for a drink or 10.

History

Tall ceilings, long bar, cash only

Tom & Jerry's is a decades-old, cash-only Manhattan dive that gained a reputation as a tech-industry hangout, and it was once featured on HBO's Girls1. Our old review liked its tall ceilings, its long bar with plenty of stools and its relaxed, low-key crowd: a great place to drop in for a drink or ten.

Early on the morning of Saturday, March 1, 2025, a gunman opened fire into the bar, killing an employee1.

Tom & Jerry's is still at 288 Elizabeth Street1, 2.
