Average Bar, Spectacular Waitress
by eat_club at Citysearch
Is Erin the best waitress in New York? Nope. I think Ellen at Fanelli's has that base covered. Marta at The Patriot gave her a run for her money, but she's since been fired, I hear. BUT, Erin is sure one of the top handful of waiter/tresses who has the personality to bring a smile to the lips of even a Chicago Cubs fan. Right there! Joking, bringing us the right stuff. Telling us about her adventures in med-school. (She's putting herself through Columbia. Yeah!) Everything you'd want that's legal and proper to give on a first meeting. She made our night! The food was nothing special, although the Buffalo Chicken Tenders were above average, in both taste and serving size. The tap beer selection: Yuengling, Sam Adams, Brooklyn, Blue Moon, was average for midtown. It if weren't for Erin, this would have been a pretty ordinary place, but it WERE for Erin and it was spectacular! --Drink Club NYC is a roving group of NYC drinkers
- Pros: Nice atmosphere, crowd thins at 10
- Cons: average beer selection, slightly pricey
Best sports bar the East Side

I live on 52nd street and 1st ave, this bar has become my local. I get in there 2 to 3 times a week for dinner and enjoy watching the games on a Sunday at the bar (plenty of TVs and multiple games on). The bartenders/Waitresses are very friendly and attentive. I only wish I had found this place sooner!
- Pros: Great bartenders, Great Food
- Cons: none

SO RUDE!
by megschmel at Citysearch
Dont waste your time here, please. I have never been treated more rudely by a bartender/manager!!
He made me leave the bar because I did not order a drink and was just sitting with my friends.
However, my other friends were drinking...
Not to mention it was a Saturday night around midnight and the bar was empty.
If the bar was crowded, there is no way I would have taken a chair and not ordered a drink...but there were a good 20 chairs open at the bar at that time.
He said to me, "you come in here, put your feet up on the chair and dont even order a drink"
He said it was the managers rule and then when we asked to speak with the manager, miraculously he was the manager! Go figure...what an *$%. I am sorry he has to work at a slow bar on a saturday night but the last thing is she do, is be rude to customers.
