What People Are Saying About Frying Pan

In Short – A lightship off the coast of North Carolina between 1929 and 1964, the Frying Pan remained submerged and abandoned for years in an inlet of the Chesapeake Bay before it was brought to New York in the '80s. The quirky boat--with many of its original seafaring details intact--makes an evocative location for dance parties, live bands and theater.

Finally OPEN again!!!!!

by thisbartendergirl at Citysearch

Hi - I am a bartender at the Frying Pan, and I just wanted to let everyone know that, as of July 4th 2008, we are finally OPEN again! Yesssssssss! Location is slightly different than before, 3 blocks north of where we used to be - our pier is now #66a, located at 26th Street on the Hudson River.

Good open air bar with casual fun atmosphere.

by desertbloom79 at Citysearch

This is a great place to go when the weather is amazing, and summer is in full bloom. I wouldn't say that it is the best place in the city, but the drinks are cheap, and you can hang out outside with plenty of space to walk around. The crowd is definitely not a Manhattan kind of crowd, and that can be a welcome relief sometimes. They often have interesting concerts, and dress is usually pretty casual. Go in loose clothing and casual shoes, and relax and dance with the band.

  • Pros: Fun and a little different.
  • Cons: Usually slow service at the bar.

Worse Service in the City

by jbinnyc at Citysearch

Save your money & effort. This place is no good. They first served us a frozen drink & then 30 minutes later refused because they were "too busy"!!! I will never go there again & you shouldn't even try. The people there are no good.

  • Pros: great views
  • Cons: staff is no good
