view & upload“the games are really fun and i would highly suggest this place for a date!”
“Plus, there's a great B&W photo machine for $3 that you can take cute pictures with your friends or significant other and there's amazing bar games like Big Buck Hunter in the back.”
“Who can deny a hot pizza with a icy cold beer!”
“am so glad that I decided to go to the Crocodile Lounge, the atmosphere is friendly and you get great drinks for a low price.”
“It's a laidback bar (a little dark-no windows) but the service is decent, prices reasonable, the pizza is actually very good!”
Great beer and pizza. They really give you a small personal pizza (6 smallish slices). Its about the size of 2 average NYC slices of pizza for every $6 beer you order. The arcade games in back rock especially skeeball for 50cents a game. The photobooth was down but its only $3.00. There were lots of NYU students and only one girl bartender, which made it hard for us girls to get a drink! I would go here again before or after going somewhere nearby and probably on a week night.
Brooklyn's free pizza craze crosses the East River..
In Short
This East Village dive uses the same successful bait as Williamsburg brother bars the Alligator Lounge and Capone's--a free personal pizza with every drink. A steady flow of students, locals and suits dig into the piping-hot pies, perhaps washing them down with a pint of the bar's signature Croc Ale. The subterranean barroom is, not surprisingly, reptilian-themed (crocodile heads and tails poke through the ceiling), but more unusual is the Skee Ball machine in the rear game room.

Cellar was a rockin' bar but it longer exists. :(

I can't add anything more. Every other review is spot on- yummy pizza, fun games, decent garden, good beers and happy hour, and some little cozy nooks for you and your friends to cozy up in! great find!
Free Pizza, Big Buck Hunter & Lots of Drinks, but crowded on Fridays. Fun place. You've got well or average priced drinks and FREE PIZZA. And the pizza is actually good. Plus, there's a great B&W photo machine for $3 that you can take cute pictures with your friends or significant other and there's amazing bar games like Big Buck Hunter in the back. Just know that on weekends, especially Friday, it's really crowded.
Cheap Beer/Free Pizza!. Does it get any better? Each $6 beer you order gets you one personal, free cheese pizza! And the pizza is good! You get as many pizzas as you can eat, which makes this an ideal place for cheap dinners if you're a student or just live on the cheap (don't we all in NYC?). The decor is unpretentious and the bare minimum. Old-school arcade games and small outdoor garden are the icing on the cake.
Chuck-E-Cheese + AMAZING BAR = Crocodile. Passing by, we saw a sandwich board on the sidewalk in front proclaiming "Free pizza! Skeeball tables!" Thinking this too-good-to-be-true, we went inside. What followed was one of the MOST fun nights I've had in the city. Observe: (1.) Free pizza. Literally. The guy makes the dough and they have a huge, Ray's-Pizza-like oven. (2.) Two skeeball lanes! (3.) An old-fashioned photobooth that costs $3. You can't FIND ones like this in the city. (4.) Yuengling, Stella, and Magic Hat on TAP!! (5.) Buck Hunter. (6.) That Whack-the-Crocodile game from Chuck-E-Cheese. (7.) The friendliest staff I've come across in a while. The manager kept on coming back to check our pizza status. This place used to be THE CELLAR, a kinda shady, dark, gross bar... THANK GOD the Croc moved in. Hopefully, the backyard beer garden will be opening up soon! I'll def be back soon!
SKEE BALL WHAT???. My friends and I stumbled in here accidently one evening and found a drinker's oasis in the middle on NY! Skee Ball! FREE PIZZA! Stella, Magic Hat, and lots more on tap! Friendly service! Do yourself and your inner child a favor and GO TO CROCODILE LOUNGE!
