I brought my team here during one of the winter months and I personally loved it. Although some complained about how cold it was inside the bar, that French Onion Soup is bomb and warmed us all up right away :) Great happy hour spot! read more

The atrium was a great spot for dinner. The nachos were SO good! I wasn't expecting all those toppings in each layer. The craft beer was delicious. I went for happy hour and was pleased with everything. read more

Hard to believe there's a place with prices this good in midtown. I'm shooketh. $15 lunch specials which include a complementary draught beer from 11am to 4pm and then a crazy happy hour with $10 margaritas from 4-8pm. I got the Guinness burger. There's something very special about the fries, they're garlic flavored and seasoned. I sat at the bar, tender wasn't the friendliest but the flavorful food and prices absolutely made up for it. The portions are also gigantic? Go!! Ohh and the pickles have this fresh and sweet flavor, very unique and thinly sliced. They should take off the Greek parts of their menu, let's stick with the Irish pub theme that my kin can remain proud of!! read more

This place was cool. We picked it because my son is a very picky eater and he specifically wanted chicken tenders on this particular night so we found a place nearby that had chicken tenders on the menu and Draught 55 came up in a decent walking distance from our hotel. Our waiter was kind impatient and offered great insight into the menu. The parents weren't that hungry so we ended up going wit with the pretzel bites as an appetizer and then doing the cheeseburger slider and chicken tender kids meals. I ordered the cheeseburger slider with the sweet potato fries. The sliders were great the sweet potato fries were just OK. The regular fries were yummy, as were the chicken tenders. I closed the night with an espresso martini because Mama needed to pick me up and it was good. read more

No frills neighborhood pub with excellent selection of craft beers and pretty decent food. We found that it was a good choice for a casual lunch. It's not easy to find meals that are both affordable and tasty. Friendly service and never too crowded so you don't have to shout when having a conversation. read more

Stopped here after bar hopping. We decided to make this our last stop since it was close to our hotel. We got greeted and were shown our seat. However, after that the same person that seated us was just chatting it up with his buddy without asking us what we wanted or give us a menu for about 10min. So we just got a drink, chugged it and tried to leave ASAP but even the check took forever. read more

Drought 55 is one of my favorite spots in Midtown East, I love the vibe, the beer selection, and location. I've also hosted events there and they were both accommodating and helpful. My favorite thing here is trying a flight and discovering a new beer. Definitely check it out if you're in the area. read more

Delicious food and the hazy IPA was wonderful! Would eat here again. The restaurant atmosphere is fun and cozy.

Ehh, been here a few times so figured it would be safe. Got the chicken sliders app and onion rings. The sliders were a disaster. The chicken had no flavor, the biscuits were over cooked and the bacon was undercooked. Had to keep sipping water to get the food down. Onion rings were solid and the service was pretty good. I'm sure I'll try it again but maybe something fresh. read more

Ambiance (4/5): I made a reservation for a Friday evening at 7pm and we were quickly seated upon arrival. There were plenty of open spaces nearby. The back atrium had a private party going on so it was not available for guests. The place is dimly lit and noise volume was on the louder side. I agree that it feels like an elevated bar. I really like the space. Service (2/5): The wait staff was definitely understaffed as it was extremely difficult to get water refills, place orders, or close out our check. Food Calamari (3/5): The rings were not that crispy but came out piping hot. I think the batter could use some more flavor but the toppings were nice. Rueben Spring Rolls 3ct (4/5): Unique spin to your classic sandwich option! I really liked it but felt like there could be more stuffing as it mostly sauerkraut. read more

Pretty decent, chill bar located in the heart of midtown east. Came here on a late Friday night and still had plenty of folks but not too crowded. There's both bar seating and plenty of table seating for larger groups. The space was large enough for corporate events too. The drink selection was standard but had just about everything you could ask for. Service was friendly too with quick turnaround time on the drinks. read more

Really great happy hour until 8PM. There is a selection of wine, beer, and I think a few cocktails on the happy hour for $7, and they also have some $8 sides (french fries, Brussel sprouts, sweet potato fries, onion rings, etc). Definitely a good idea to make a reservation ahead of time even on the weekday as the bar area gets packed. There is a back yard space that's very pretty - I think standing room only but it's a great vibe! read more

Recently my company had their Christmas party here. We rented out the furthest back room which was almost like an enclosed terrace but also included a fireplace! It was very spacious. The passed appetizers were good, including the pigs in a blanket and the burger sliders. The drinks were also pouring all night, and the espresso martini was a really good nightcap! I'd come back here for Happy Hour for sure. read more

Could not say enough positive things about Draught 55. what a hidden gem in midtown! We held our 70ish person engagement party in the back private "Atrium" this weekend and we're so pleased with the experience we're already thinking about the next party we can host here. The bartenders and staff, especially their events manager Kevin, were so friendly and helpful the entire day and the weeks leading up to our event, our guests were fully satisfied with the food selection and quality and vast variety of beers and drinks generally. Bar service was fast even when the room was completely packed. We were able to decorate the room ourselves although it didn't really need any decorations as it's already so nicely put together. Can't recommend enough. Now I just need to go back and try all of their beers and food off their regular menu. read more

This restaurant remains underrated despite its quality. They serve good food in big portions at prices that surprise. The primary feature is the employees' pleasant demeanor. You get quality cuisine at reasonable prices. Draught 55 delivers a complete experience. read more

Good casual watering hole. Had a burger at the bar and washed it down with the house lager, both were good and reasonably priced. Good bar service, I love it when the bartender moves efficiently and knows what they're doing. The seating area has picnic style tables with bench seating and seems to be popular for post-work get togethers. The large room in the back of the bar was being rented for a group gathering. I liked Draught 55 better than PJ Clarke's down the street. In fact, we were going to have a burger at PJ Clarke's and walked out cause it was so crowded and noisy in the bar area and the bartender was too busy to notice us. The burgers at the two are comparable IMO. read more

My wife hosted my 30th bday here. We rented the atrium private space which could fit up to 100 people (we only had 40). The atrium comes beautifully decorated with flowers on the rooftop and has its own private bar with bartender. The staff here are extremely friendly and accommodating. They worked with us on all our requests. They allowed us to setup a Photo Booth as well. We ordered about 10 different appetizers for our guests and they were all excellent, except the beef sliders which were a bit over cooked and dry. The food flowed out at a nice even pace. Drinks were solid and they had good choices for draft beer too. Would definitely recommend hosting your next event here read more

My husband and I stopped by here on a Saturday afternoon in August. We were greeted by the bartender and I asked him if we can sit in the patio (I love drinking in an indoor outdoor situation). He replied that it was extremely unpleasant and hot there and he would not recommend. He still let me walk back there and he was right. I like taking my husband to bars that have a variety of draft beers - and Draught 55 did not disappoint. Eddie enjoyed the House Brew American Lager and I had my usual tequila on the rocks. We sat at the table in front of the window next to the entrance. We were the only patrons for awhile but it wasn't in the weird way. I would recommend Draught 55 for quick drinks and good beers. read more

Good weather=Good beer. As the weather starts getting a little better, we are craving a chilled glass of beer almost everyday! We decided to try Draught 55 on one of our craving days. It is a great spot to grab a chilled beer and yummy bar food. We got the Roasted cauliflower and aged white cheddar dip served with grilled bread and veggie sticks. It was so addictive! I didn't know a dip made of cauliflower could taste so good, rich and creamy. We also got the a side of the Grilled corn with chipotle butter. We had to get something with chipotle butter and It did not disappoint. It was rich, delicious with a slight spicy kick. For drinks I got the Hitachino Nest White Ale which was the best Whitbier I've had. Get this Japanese beer that is full of flavor and spices if you're here. Ps: I really liked how all the food items on their menu suggest a beer pairing to go along with it read more

Draught 55 has something for everyone. It's a great pub like atmosphere with a handful of TVs in the front by the bar and a side area in the front with tables for dining. The back hosts a glass-enclosed Atrium with a full bar in the back. We have never been there for an event but I have noticed it can be rented out as well, perfect for a large gathering. The food is pretty good as well and they have a great kids menu too with a handful of high chairs. During lunch, the tables feel separate from the bar so it doesn't feel like you're bringing your kid to a bar and it's separate enough it doesn't affect the vibe ether. From everything I've tried I have enjoyed the wings the most. Must not be able to tell from the picture but the are certainly on the larger side! Draught 55 is a fun time. read more

Very good onion soup. We asked for the cheese on top to be well done. The tuna nicoise was also very good. It had rare tuna which was done perfectly. The chicken sandwich with bbq sauce and bacon and the three fried chicken sliders also were tasty. We asked for the fries without garlic sauce. I'm actually going back today for dinner. I'll take pictures to show what we will be eating. read more

My second time back here. The food is not bad, that's why I come back. The first time I ordered blue cheese burger. Price is fair and portion is big. For nowadays, you can get a big burger with fries for $15-20, it's a deal. The nacho dish is huge, With half avocado slices and lots of chips. However the service is unacceptable. It seems they only have one waitress and she is constantly looking at her phone at the corner. We sat there 15 mins and not even water was offered. After 20 mins someone came to take our order. Food came very fast. But no water or napkins were provided. We tried to look for the waitress or host. After we finished our food, we sat there for more than 20 mins to get the bill. Finally we saw someone and asked if we can get the check. I think I will get take out next time. The service is very slow. If you have time and don't mind waiting, this place is nice. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. Music is a bit loud. It has a good selection of beer. read more

Guessing by the name, you wouldn't expect them to have such an inviting interior. I attended a work holiday party (group of 30) in their atrium. First off, the place is surprisingly very spacious. Crowded and noisy but that's expected during happy hour times. The layout was very long with a low ceiling. Took me a while to get to the back patio where our party was happening. They did a great job decorating the back room. Lights everywhere. Lovely Christmas feel! They served us few appetizers at first. Main food was enjoyed buffet style. The table featured a salad, pasta, salmon, chicken, mashed potatoes and brocoli. I had a full satisfying plate. The bar was the star of the show. Great bartenders. I did not get beer but rather enjoyed whisky and later 2 glasses of vermouth. This place definitely added to the fun atmosphere of our party. read more

One of my favorite bars in the midtown east area, and if you are hungry you MUST try the nachos!! Now I wouldn't think nachos at a bar would be good, but after the first time trying it, I always come back for more. The portion is huge and I have never ever finished it with a friend before!. Their burger is also bomb along with their happy hour prices. Draught is my go-to bar in my neighborhood :) read more
