NYC Bars by Type

Covid-19 Update

Since the pandemic of 2020 wreaked havoc on the bars of NYC, the thousands of facts included on MurphGuide.com’s Guide to NYC bars must be reviewed. As you can imagine, that will take countless hours. We will do our best going forward to keep this site updated, but please forgive us if a venue has closed and we still have it listed. It is always a good idea to call the venue. And if you know of any venues that have closed that we are still listing, please drop us a note. Cheers!
Murph.
