Editorial Review for Stout NYC – by Kara Zuaro
The Scene
With cobblestone floors and stone walls, this sweeping, high-ceilinged bar feels like a fortress--and offers a safe haven from the chaos of nearby Penn Station. Thanks to a personable staff and cozier seating in the back room and mezzanine, the warehouse-like space seems almost as intimate as a tiny neighborhood tavern, complete with customers saddling up to the long, full bar or tall tables to catch a soccer match on the large-screen TVs.
The Draw
Commuters and local workers alike marvel at the extensive beer selection--more than 20 on tap and 100 or so more in bottles--listed by country, like fine wine. Beer connoisseurs dine on British pub grub like bangers and mash, Manhattanite-friendly oysters, or juicy build-your-own burgers, and (in honor of the bar's namesake) wash it all down with robust Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout or the incredibly creamy, perfectly poured Young's Double Chocolate Stout.

Insider Tips
When To GoA traditional Irish breakfast is available alongside the regular menu every day. DJs perform Wednesday through Saturday nights.
Know Before You GoIf you're grabbing a burger, be warned that the fries cost an additional $2.95--though they do come with a free dipping sauce (like Chipotle Honey, Mango Ketchup, or Red Pepper Aioli).

This Bar I thought was a nice place during the day when I stopped in. I went back one night with my girlfriend and the THUGS they hire towatch the door really over do it with the customers. I saw one THUG actually threaten a guy with his girlfriend who took a little long getting her ID from her bag. STAY AWAY PLENTY OF NICE BARS DOWN THE BLOCK ON 8TH AVENUE
Pros: NONE BECAUSE OF THE THUGS THE HIRE TO WATCH THE DOOR
Cons: THUGS AT THE DOOR

I'm honestly surprised by all the bad reviews on here! I've only been here a handful of times since a few friends independently mentioned it a month ago, but the atmosphere is nice - it looks pretty right when you walk in, and although it's HUGE and can be wayyy too loud in some places, there are quiet spots to be found. The food is great, if a little basic (burgers, fries, typical pub food but of higher quality than most), and while some of the waitresses have seemed a tad impatient or stressed on busy nights, I've never had attitude problems from anyone, never had to wait excessively long for anything, and the bathrooms were really clean when I was in them. It almost makes me wonder if some other reviewers are talking about the same place! My only complaints are that the hostess has been nowhere to be found twice when I came in for lunch and I was left ignored in the front for at least 5 minutes while a line built up. Also, on one of my visits, a lady (I think the manager?) came over to our table and made my husband and I feel very pressured to either buy something else or finish our meal, even though it wasn't busy. She took away our plates, which were still stacked with fries, and it wasn't until our server came back to the table that we even figured out who she was. Either way, the food and beer selection are great, and I'd sooner come here for a burger and fries than Jackson Hole or pretty much any Diner in the city. Other things to try are: Spinach and Cheese dip, Sweet Potato Fries, and Veggie Burgers. Come at less busy times and the waitresses are usually nice and upbeat too =)
