Great for 28th birthday parties!

by scratchiti

Always been a fan of this bar. Good for 28th birthday parties. Or, 27th. Or 26th. But why oh why is Yuengling not on tap anymore!?

  • Pros: chill place
  • Cons: stopped carrying yuengling on tap

Editorial Review

Upper West Side beer bar boasts a beer engine, a beer-inspired menu with pairings, and a beer club.

Great drinking bar on UWS

by ld2232

IF you're looking for lots of choices, a great jukebox and an occasional cute pooch hanging out with the rest of the crowd, this is the perfect spot. Not a place to meet new people but a perfect spot to go with friends or a date for a drink(s).

  • Pros: Beer choices, jukebox, friendly people
  • Cons: A little clique-y

Best Local Spot!

by uesgrl

Keeley's is the regular spot for me and my friends. We LOVE it! It generally does not get too crowded, which means you can easily get a seat and get comfortable for a fun night of drinking. The bartenders are friendly and know their regulars. And the place is always clean (even the bathrooms!) The only downfall is that it's not a place to meet new people- people generally stick to their friends. If you are looking for a hook-up or love, you won't find it at Keeley's.

  • Pros: Bartenders, music, beer selection, atmosphere

Greatest Bartender!

by jfeagles

One of my favorite spots. Bartenders are great - with one exception (you know who you are). Regular guy has my drink poured before I get in my seat - just what a neighborhood bartender should know!!! Great beer, Great prices. Can't wait until next Friday!

  • Pros: Great Bartenders, Great TV's, Great Beers
  • Cons: One new Bad Bartender, Sorry guys

Will go back

by beerdrinker2

Great bar, great prices, great beer selection, great atmosphere - EXCEPT for the bartender. I went on a monday night a few weeks ago - the bartender looked like the living dead and acted like it too. Rude, arrogant, lazy, and slow. I don't know what the owner was thinking when he/she hired him. So I will be avoiding Mondays. But the place itself was great so I will definately be giving it another chance.....

  • Pros: great beer, great prices, great atmosphere
  • Cons: one bad bartender

Perfect if you want a place to relax

by roar_roar

Good selection of beer and not overpriced. Everyone here tends to be really friendly. The jukebox is pretty good and there are enough tvs so you can watch a couple different games. Good mix of ages and pretty close to 50/50 girls/guys on weekends.

  • Pros: friendly patrons, drink selection

My favorite low key neighborhood Pub

by curious_monkey

I've been going here for several years and it's my favorite neighborhood pub. It has a great selection of beers that they are constantly changing, so if you are a beer drinker than this is the place for you. The bartenders are always friendly, and the place is totally low key (not trendy in anyway) - the perfect place to unwind after work.

  • Pros: Great beer selection, low key, usually not packed

Neighborhood Pub at its Best

by lucia711

Keeley's is the perfect place to watch the game, hang out and have a few drinks. The bartenders know their stuff - from the 30 something beers to mixed drinks. Great as a neighborhood bar or for a private party. There is a pretty good bar menu available for appetizers. Perfect place to bring the team after a game or to hang out with friends.

  • Pros: Great Prices, Diverse Beers on Tap, Great Space

Operating Room Or Bar

by sangegarcon

Probably one of the most sterile environments I've been in. The decor is trying to be I rish but it all looks too well placed. The low stools cause back problems, if I want to be that low to the floor I will drink myself there. Speaking of drinks how about cleaning those taps out once in awhile. At least the staff was friendly. Just don't make last call sell me a drink and then try to kick me out two minutes later.
