Covid-19 Update
Due to the restrictions caused to combat the covid-19 pandemic, many restaurants are closed or have limited hours, and limited seating. It is a good idea to call the venue before visiting.
Gastropubs are a hybrid of a restaurant and a pub (gastronomy + pub). They can be a bar that serves better than pub grub food, or a restaurant that also has a decent bar scene. In our continuous efforts to “connect the fun to the fun people”, we present our list of the best gastropubs in New York:
