What People Are Saying About Broadway Station

Featured Review

In Short – Once upon a time, a man would toil all day before stopping at bar with the fellas on his way home. Now that same bar sees girls in low-slung jeans without a care that every NFL game is shown on 16 screens. Such is life. The older afternoon crowd gives way to a younger generation at this Long Island City favorite. No surprises there--drinks are cheap; the bar pumps its own smooth, dark Broadway Station Ale; and everyone's welcome to shoot some pool or play some darts.

Editor's Tips

Happy Hour:
Weekday happy hour spans from noon to 6pm, with beers and well drinks in the $3 to $3.50 range.
Food Served:
Buffalo wings, jalapeno poppers and nachos makes good nibbles, while sandwiches make a meal.
Save Money:
Swing by for the lunch special and save a few bucks.
Specialty Cocktails:
You might not think that a place like this would have unique cocktails--but indeed they do, with names like the Astoria Park, the Broadway Station and the N Train.

Overall a great place to go

by lisainlic

My fiance and I have made Broadway Station our place to go when we want to have a night out. The ambiance is great. Even though we are not into the sports being watched on the tv's, the booths combined with the music, offer up a relaxed yet lively place to be. Being conveniently located right on Broadway and 31st in Astoria, we are close to home. The sliders are excellent and you can usually get food throughout the entire night till the wee hours of the morning. I find the staff to be welcoming and friendly. I recommend this place to my friends all the time.

Rude and overpriced.

by lilorphan921

I have been going to this bar since I moved to Astoria 6 years ago. After being thrown out by the bouncer and bartender, and being grabbed by the bouncer, I am never returning. I had dozed off in a booth waiting for a friend, and the bouncer came up and was incredibly rude. When I asked for him to explain why I was being thrown out, he could not give me answer. I called when I returned home and asked for the name of the Manager, I was hung up on. I do not appreciate being grabbed and humiliated. I will never return to this bar and I would not recommend it to anyone.

Rude and overpriced

by JonShank

If I could give this place less than 1 star I would. Went there a few nights ago and the bartender starts getting angry at my friend for throwing a couple of napkins on the ground. My friend apologized and the bartender, a squat little nobody, just keeps getting angrier and asks my friend if he'd like it if someone came to his home and threw napkins on the floor. My friend asked if the bartender lived there and the bartender punched him! And not just once either, like about 6 times! And then screamed for us to get out. We had done NOTHING to provoke a physical assault like that. And even before that, the drinks were watered down, the service was rather slow and the food was barely edible. I would not recommend this place to anyone, ever!

Soggy wings

by mtyama

We dropped by to watch the Giants game last night. We asked for a booth but were told no because they only seat 3-4 people there (only 2 in our group). Ordered buffalo wings and they came out soggy!

Also, as we sat there, two groups of 2 people were seated in the booths! We've had trouble here before but gave it another try because of the facelift. Never again!
