Awful management and service. Came in here and wasn't sure if I would get a beer, looked up and down the bar, saw an open table near the front where it wasn't freezing like in the back, so sat down. A minute later a woman in green comes up to say it was reserved. There was no sign anywhere. I was not gonna sit in the cold back and would never have ordered without a seat. So I asked for a refund on the beer I had barely touched. She went to get a manager, a really rude and angry brunette bitch. Instead of a refund she got a chair and shoved me next to someone with his disgusting half eaten nachos everywhere. Fuck her and fuck this place read more

Came here on a Wednesday with my colleagues after a stressful training at NYu. We sat by the window, kinda empty. I did not like those stools so uncomfortable. Two of us ordered margaritas and another one got vodka seltzer. The girl kept coming to ask if we were ready to order and honestly we were so engaged in conversation she had to come back like 3 times.We obviously apologized. Anyway we orders chicken tacos OMG!! So huge and amazing to share will definitely one back for that. Didn't take much pics besides the food because again we were just engaging in conversation and having a last minute girls night. read more

We came here on a Sunday to watch football. Our waitress was very sweet at first, but we never received menus. We ordered Buffalo wings, chicken fingers, and fries. When the chicken fingers arrived, they turned out to be breaded chicken cutlets -- heavy breading, little to no seasoning, and nothing like what you'd expect when ordering "chicken fingers." We asked to speak to a manager, explained that we never received menus, and politely requested to send the dish back. Instead of trying to resolve the situation, the manager insisted that there was a photo on the menu (which we never got) and told us there was nothing she could do. She kept repeating how "high quality" the meat was rather than addressing the issue. We took one bite before realizing it wasn't what we expected, and I've never been to a restaurant that refuses to take back an untouched dish under those circumstances. It would be one thing if we had eaten the whole plate and then complained, but that wasn't the case. Overall, the food was disappointing, and the management's attitude was unprofessional. I've never been treated this poorly at a restaurant. read more

Let me tell you I had some awesome service from Megan and awesome food. I was on a first date. My date chose the location. It was a great choice. I'll be back, just without the date. The chicken and gravy was so amazingly good. The gravy had sausage in it. The chicken was on top of a flaky biscuit with a fried gooey egg. Fried cauliflower was in a zesty sweet sauce. I was licking my fingers. I highly recommend this place and sit in Megan's station as she was very attentive and personable. read more

And if you have the pleasure of meeting Katelyn, Avery, or Meg Bombs, you can thank God. Those ladies are the holy grail of bartenders. I'd trust them with my life.

Wow. So disappointed in service, I'd avoid this shelter in a hurricane. I was seated at a 2-seater high top to watch football, waiting for my second to join and I had even called ahead letting them know I was coming. I didn't even have a good table I was last table fully back in the corner. I order a beer and have a few sips of it when all of a sudden five minutes before kickoff the waitress came and took my second chair - claiming it was for a reservation (hadn't had anyone there yet). I said no it was for my second person and she was like too bad. I paid for my beer and left since there was no way to watch football now for me and my second at the high top. Lousy customer service! Who takes a chair from the back area? You need to plan ahead! Shoutout to the nice bartender who served me my beer though. read more

Im a stickler for quality customer service and the service at this place was literally killing me. The service was so spotty. One minute she was great and the next minute we couldn't find her. Our second round of drinks (espresso martinis) were not even drinkable. We informed our waitress, who sent the bartender out. She was extremely rude and questioned us instead of just remaking them. She was so loud everyone was looking at us and when she went back inside others around us commented on her behavior. We obviously did not stay for round 3. This will be my first and last time visiting. read more

I reached out to host a work gathering early in December and the owner couldn't have been more helpful, professional and kind. Everyone had so much fun! The value to host a party is so good for Manhattan. The alcohol selection is great. The bartenders know how to make whatever cocktail you want. The boneless wings were SO GOOD!

Whether you're upstairs for the 3rd floor vibe, mid-level for the perfect sightline, or down in the cozy den with the best acoustics, this is New York sports bar energy: loud, a little brazen, impossibly welcoming. One particular bartender, Delaney not only brings an awesome level of energy to the bar, she saunters in like a halftime show -- a grin that's equal parts mischief and welcome. She's all quick elbows and quicker comebacks, the kind of bartender who remembers your name, your drink, and that one ridiculous story you told months ago. Her laugh is loud, her wink is devious, and she has a way of making first-timers feel like regulars by the second round. Behind the wooden bar she's choreography: expert pours, theatrical muddles, and a flourish that makes every order feel curated. Delaney's drinks are personality-packed, with her behind the bar, the place doesn't just serve drinks -- it gets its personality back. It's a place off 8th ave where fitness meets fun, and every corner feels like home--complete with friendly staff who know your name (or at least your size) and are always ready to offer a witty comeback or a perfect recommendation.

We are so thrilled that we ended up here. It was the perfect way to end our day. Cozy yet elevated pub atmosphere. Relaxing yet also fun. Great ambiance and good energy amongst staff and customers. There was a wonderful bartender and waiter (both from Ireland) working the night that we went. They were both delightfully witty. Playful banter with one another and with the customers which made our experience quite entertaining. Burgers and fries were DELICIOUS. Both cocktails I ordered were lovely and well made. 10/10 experience. I have already recommended it to friends who are planning a trip to NYC.

Two-part, proper settle, tight dome, no rushing it. That's rarer than it should be in Midtown where half the bars treat a stout like a lager. Whoever's behind the bar here has been trained or grew up around it. Food's better than a second-floor pub between 5th and 6th has any right to be. The JRB burger comes on a house-ground patty (they grind in-house, and you can tell, loose texture, actual seasoning), caramelized onions cooked down all the way, not just softened, good cheese pull. Fried pickles on the side had a crisp cornmeal shell and stayed crunchy under the burger juices, which never happens. Buttermilk chicken salad was the surprise. Chicken actually brined, crust stayed on, greens weren't an afterthought. Only real knock: music was loud. Not sports-bar loud, more like the bartender's playlist got away from him. Fine at the bar, harder at a table if you want to talk. Room's got real bones. Reclaimed barn wood, old rail track as a foot rest, that big 45-star flag on the wall. Been here almost 20 years and it's aged into itself. For the neighborhood the pricing's fair. Beats P.J. Clarke's on the burger, loses on quiet. Go for a beer and a burger, not a date.

The place was located on a cute circle in Hell's Kitchen with indoor and outdoor seating and offered a "Yappy Hour": (any day) bring your dog to receive 50% off cocktails. Sweet deal, & have a menu for your dog, as well! (In hindsight, there was no wonder there were so many dogs there! ) I ordered the spicy gin margarita which had a kick but was so delicious. My cousin ordered it too and enjoyed the spice. To eat, we enjoyed wings, some lemon chicken soup and guac with pita to start. I lovveed the soup. Wish it came in a larger bowl - would absolutely ordered that again. Time for our entrees. My husband and I shared the parpadelle short rib ragu because my husband was pretty full from all the apps. (So good!) it really was a 10/10. It was perfectly seasoned and did not disappoint. My aunt ordered the fish and chips and my cousin the spaghetti Pomodoro. Everyone enjoyed their meals and the hospitality of the staff. Thank you for an awesome dinner!

Of course, if you're a dog lover you'll enjoy the related decor, coffee cups, and the place itself is dog friendly. Not too long ago I met up with a friend here for a quick meal after some morning run training. Happy to see they offer the Barking Dog Breakfast Special at this location - 3 eggs, home fries, biscuits, fruit, with ham, bacon, or sausage. Good deal to fill up along with some hot coffee. This location is in a spot close to where I used to work near Hells Kitchen, and offers nice outside seating on the patio area around it. Friendly service and a decent spot for brunch, lunch, a burger, or salad.

Visited this bar today for lunch server Mary was very rude and unprofessional.. I simple asked her if I can switched a drink she made super sweet to something else she got snappy with me that's not how you treat customers I come to this place frequently and this is by far the worst experience I've ever had .. I then was about to order a drink before I can do so she already brought my bill before I even order a drink or asked for my bill.. I was completely turn off with the service to the point I was turned off with the food smh never again will I be visiting .. like it's numerous bars in the same vicinity and there service is a 1000 times better. read more

I've visited Blue Haven a few times, and it's a lively sports bar that's perfect for college football and NFL fans. The atmosphere is energetic, especially during game days when the place gets packed. It's an excellent spot to hang out with friends, and the service is consistently solid. The crowd is on the younger side. The food is great, and I highly recommend trying the buffalo chicken wrap paired with waffle fries - it's absolutely delicious! The prices are reasonable, making it a great value for the experience. I definitely plan on returning! read more

Awesome food, attentive staff, and quick service. They have ample outdoor seating. It was easy to get a table for weekend brunch even though they were crowded. The servers were friendly and were very attentive the whole time we were there. Today, I came here with some friends and we got nachos and a tower of beer! I highly recommend that you come check out this bar In New York City! read more

They did not have enough service to accommodate the event. We had to wait a while for service upon being seated, and throughout the night we were constantly flagging people down to help us. They would bring out food with no utensils, no plates, no napkins, several times. Our waiter would forget drinks or the waters that we requested. Despite the poor service, we had an auto 22% gratuity added to our bill without our knowledge. There's also a 4% service fee. The food here is pretty terrible. Ordered the midtown combo platter - not very appetizing looking or tasting: the wings were dry, the curly fries were curly crumbs - maybe 3 pieces were actually long enough to be 'curled;' 3 mozz sticks. Just all-around gross. We also got an order of the jalapeno poppers - they smelt like dirty, wet socks and tasted just as bad. Glad we didn't waste our money on anything further from the menu. It was also very warm inside. The trivia was a lot of fun, but that's the only good thing about this place...I would not come back here again without a compelling reason to.

But Mason Jar isn't just a bar, it's a BBQ joint. And if the team didn't just have lunch, we probably would have devoured some ribs. The spot was spacious, and was pretty empty because it was a 2pm on a Friday. I see this spot getting rowdy for a happy hour, or during a big game. The last time I had BBQ was in Texas. It will be tough to beat what I had there. But the second I walked into Mason Jar it smelled like I was back in Texas. I still smell as I type this. I'm sad I was so full. Anyways, the guy behind the bar mad sure we had coffees and for me a ginger ale as we worked away for an hour or so together. He was welcoming and made sure we felt at home even though we didn't order food. All of this guarantees a return visit from me.

Happy hour boasts several specials beginning at $6 for liquids and $7 for snacks. I have had their mozzarella sticks and wings on happy hour, solid option on a budget. They make a decent burger as well. Honestly the highlight of Cornerstone is the staff - ownership is genuine and sincere and highly invested in guests having a good time.
