  1. so for anyone and everyone looking for a bar in NYC thats fun and relaxing as well as gives you that close to home sort of feel in the big city, i highly recommend The Irish Rogue!
  2. I've been going especially on Thursday and especially on Friday nights to see the fun, entertaining video dj they've had there since the summer and didn't see him this past time, but he and the staff always are always very accomodating.
  3. It really is the best irish pub in NYC ,with fantastic food and it's a lot of fun.
  4. From its pleasent and sexy bartendars, to its inviting atmosphere, to its Monday night wings specials.
  5. always use citysearch but this is the first review i have ever taken the time to write, i have lived in ny for 7 years and work in the hotel & catering industry & know this bar deserves recognition for being comfortable, having great service & really is

  9. fun staff great food fab music and videos
  10. We went there again, pre-theater, and the food was excellent, the atmosphere was really upbeat.
  11. Friday night is especially fun because they play 80's music and show old 80's videos up on the screen, which is always provides a good laugh!
  12. The atmosphere is so warming and its a great place to lounge around and be as comfortable as possible.
  13. It's the kind of place that somehow fosters a warm atmosphere between friends and among strangers.

Better than I thought

by McSTTEEVVEE at Citysearch

So after getting stood up by my date outside of an italian restaurant I turned to my right and saw an option of 2 bars. Both seemed cool but one had cute blonds standing out front so...took my chances and strolled into the Irish Rogue. It was about 6pm so it was kinda busy inside. I found a nice seat in the back at the bar and the bartender greeted me w/a beautiful smile and a friendly hello. She ran through all the happy hour specials for me and after finding out they had 4 dollar beers all night I knew I made the right decision. I stayed so long I managed to order food 2 times. Mac n cheese to start (mmmmmm w/bacon might I add) and some sort of Chipotle burger by the 3rd hour to sober me up. The burger was out of this world. Not exactly pub grub. And I managed to make a few friends. Better than my date probably would've been I got lucky enough to be entertained by a live Irish band, exchanged numbers w/some cool people and had a great time. Think I'll be going back soon to try and get the managers number. She was breathtaking. So anyway, sucks I got stood up but I had a better time w/out her. Girls suck but the Irish Rogue wont let you down.

  • Pros: cool staff, excellent burgers
  • Cons: wasted my day away sinking in the all night happy hour

Great Pub in an unlikely location

by maddermaus at Citysearch

No one will ever accuse the Irish Rogue of having the best food in Manhattan, but it's still pretty damn good, and the price point is unusual for it's location sitting on the outer fringe of the Times Square.

It's definitely a place that I frequent from time to time when i'm in the area. The food is good and the staff is very friendly. When it's busy the service does slow down a bit, but if you are sitting in the over-stuffed leather barrel chairs by the front window you won't mind too much.

So - If you are in the Time Square area and you want a really good burger, wings and beer at a very affordable price check it out.

  • Pros: Good food at a great price. Friendly staff.
  • Cons: The sports crowd can get noisy
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Friendliest Service in Hells Kitchen

by NYUChris at Citysearch

Irish Rogue is very relaxing, staff is excellent, prices are reasonanble. When we go in as a group during the week for lunch or Monday nigh for winds, we get treated as family. The Monday night waitresses are wonderful and the daytime staff is great. If you haven't tried the Irish Rogue, make it your new favorite hot spot to sit, chill, relax and watch the game.

  • Pros: Good Servive, Great Staff, Reasonanble Prices
  • Cons: WEAK Drinks
