Beer Pong

16 bars that New York on Tap listed under “Beer Pong” around 2008, with what's licensed at each address in 2026.

Manhattan

• A Marok Bar & Grill

  32 Cliff St. · Financial district

  No license found in 2026

  The only beer pong table in the Financial District is at this popular Pace student hangout.

• Aces & Eights Saloon

  1683 1st Ave. · Upper East Side

  Closed

  The theme is wild west, but the scene is waitresses in mini skirts pushing jello shots and frat boys playing beer pong and Big Buck Hunter.

• The Big Easy

  1768 2nd Ave. · Upper East Side

  Closed

  Successfully replicates the frat party feel of Mardi Gras without all of that distracting cajun culture. The magic recipe: $1 well drinks for girls on Thursday nights.

• Down the Hatch

  179 W. 4th St. · West Village

  Still pouring

  Basement bar with cheap food and even cheaper beer. The name says it all.

• Hook and Ladder

  611 2nd Ave. · Murray Hill

  No license found in 2026

  Owned and operated by New York's bravest, this is the go to bar for girls looking to land themselves a fireman. On Saturday nights ladies drink for free, and by 2am quite a few of them find themselves in need ofa little rescuing.

• Jake's Dilemma

  430 Amsterdam Ave. · Upper West Side

  Still pouring

  Loud and raucous, the student crowd here's the same as the other big frat bars on this block, but at least Jake's has a backroom that's free of TVs, so you can try and score digits without the sickly plasma palor.

• Keat's

  842 2nd Ave. · Midtown East

  Closed

  Depending on your perspective either a solid Irish bar and restaurant becomes a Karaoke wasteland Thursday through Saturday, or an otherwise boring Second Avenue mcIrish bar becomes an Abbatastic paradise.

• Kings Head Tavern

  222 E. 14th St. · East Village

  Same bar, now The Belfry

  A solid bar ruined by new ownership that fired the previous bar staff en mass and redecorated the place in Upper East Side chic. Beer pong anyone?

• Mad River Bar And Grille

  1442 3rd Ave. · Upper East Side

  Closed; now Tang by Mr. Sun

  A mecca for the frat boys at heart. Start off the night with a little beer pong, then a few rounds of shots, and when your buzz gets going work your way to the dance floor and find someone's hip to hump arrhythmically to the sweet beats of Abba.

• Off the Wagon

  109 Macdougal St. · Greenwich Village

  Still pouring

  With cheap beer, wings, sliders, beer pong, and all the big games is it any surprise that Off the Wagon is the frat bar du jour for NYU backwards baseball cap set.

• Pat O'Brien's

  1701 2nd Ave. · Upper East Side

  A different business is licensed at this address: Red Grill Mexican Restaurant Inc, The

  A long and narrow Red Sox sports bar. There's beer pong in the back. And you're looking at .25 beers for happy hour.

• The Snug

  751 9th Ave. · Hells Kitchen

  Closed; now Craft + Carry

  A relaxed low key spot to throw some darts or catch the game.

• Time Out

  349 Amsterdam Ave. · Upper West Side

  Closed; now Tessa

  4,000 square feet, 30 TVs, a beer pong table and the hottest bartenders in the city. WooHoo! Shots of Jager for my boys and those aging delta deltas over there.

• The Town Tavern

  134 W. 3rd · Greenwich Village

  Closed; now 3 Sheets Saloon

  Calling a bar a frat bar implies at least a partial college education. Failing such ready nomenclature this is a Drink too much, puke in the toilet, tip the bathroom attendant the change in your pocket, go back to the bar, sweat profusely, wait forever for a drink, get in a screaming match with your girlfriend and call her a slut, then cry on her shoulder on the cab ride back to Penn Station kind of place. It's also great for parties and fund-raisers.

• Whiskey River

  575 2nd Ave. · Murray Hill

  Closed; now H&R Block

  Yes it is a frat bar, but the crowd's more Animal house than Phi Beta Innate-Sense-of-Entitlement. And the beers cheap, and they've got Guinness on tap.

Brooklyn

• 4th Avenue Pub

  76 4th Ave · North Slope

  Still pouring

  Like Cherry Tree across the street this bar has a large and unique beer selection, an attractive space, and a killer garden. What it's missing is the beer pong frat crowd.

Already closed by 2009

• Mo's Caribbean BarClosed by 2009

  1454 2nd Ave. · Upper East Side

  Closed; now The Stumble Inn

  Cheap beyond cheap nightly drink specials and beer pong for a post-frat crowd. If you're looking to have a serious night out on a Monday night this is your place. Shots! Shots! Slam! Chug! Hookup! Fondle! Fumble! Vomit!
