In Short
There's not a spec of sawdust or a creak in the floorboards, but at this well-loved beer bar, it sure feels like there should be. Wood from a 19th century farmhouse was used for the ceiling beams, flooring and counter--all the better to soak up the suds from 28 colorful taps and two casks--and a large brick fireplace warms one side of the room. Along with the microbrews, a food menu is pored over by old friends of the original location and new inductees.

The Blind Tiger is a great bar to spend a long night if you get there early enough to snag a table. They have a great beer selection, although if you don't drink beer you're stuck w. a few not-so-fine wines. But still worth it to hang out there with friends!

Never ate here, but sure had my fair share of great beers! With all the draught and bottled beer options, you don't need to go anywhere else. My wife and I like to have a few beers here, then head over to Lederhosen for dinner (and more beer). In my opinion, this is by far the best beer bar in Manhattan.

I usuallly come to the Blind Tiger (BT's as those in "the" know call it) on a Monday night, to enjoy the delicious array of beers, ales, pilsners and stouts, to quietly ponder the trails and twibulations of the day gone by and to work on my novel. NOT LAST NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111111 No, because some loud people were laughing and having fun, and whooping and hollering. The blind tiger, in my mind is a designated quiet zone on Monday. If you want to laugh loudly, go to Duplex next door, but don't come to BT's on a mnoday night!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111 Harrumphh!

Food Served:
Use your brew to wash down sharable snacks like cheese plates or bigger bites including a pulled chicken sandwich and old school sourdough grilled cheese.
Know Before You Go:
The impeccable draught list includes Dogfish Head, Heavy Weight and Southampton brews; there are dozens of bottles (including vintage beers) as well. Wine and coffee round out the beverages.
The Extras:
One unobtrusive TV hangs in one corner of the bar--great for the solo regulars who've just stopped by for a pint.
