Editorial Review for Yogi's – by Julie Mehta

The Scene
A pink neon "bar" sign and carved wooden bear mark the entrance to this dive offering the sedate Upper West Side the same brand of raucous fun as its downtown counterparts, the Patriot Saloon. Older, bearded regulars mix with concertgoers from the nearby Beacon Theatre in a setting that feels more down-home than big-city, with its beer banners, multiple televisions and a giant American flag.

The Draw
The super-cool chicks behind the extra-long bar pour plenty of cheap pitchers for the predominantly male crowd. Not that there aren't a healthy number of females, as evidenced by the bras hanging all over. Women are encouraged to dance on the bar and everyone is encouraged to sing along with the jukebox that's constantly playing country classics from the likes of Johnny Cash, Hank Williams and Willie Nelson. Hip? No. Chic? Definitely not. Just a good time for a no-frills crowd.

I live across the street from this bar and its one of the best neighborhood places i've found! the bartenders are great, the jukebox music is awesome, and the "cowboy" bar feel is like a hidden gem!

Pros: great drinks, cheap, bartenders, cowboy feel

Cons: smells like beer everywhere

Went here last night after a show at the Beacon Theatre. The girls working behind the bar were great fun and the service was excellent!
