We did not have food so cannot comment on that. But Andrew, the bartender, was quintessential NY-Irish and a rockstar behind the bar. It's a very small, but impressive decor for a late-night cap off. A little FYI - MacLaren's Pub from How I Met Your Mother was not filmed in a real bar, but on a soundstage in Los Angeles, specifically at 20th Century Fox studios. The fictional bar was inspired by McGee's Pub, an Irish tavern located at 240 W 55th St in NYC, which the creators frequented while working for David Letterman. read more

Would suggest making reservation. We did and were seated immediately on busy night. I had the chicken pot pie which was delicious. My husband had the turkey and ham entree which he liked. Mc Gee's is a lively bar/restuarant. I'm glad we chose to dine here in a city of many choices! read more

A friendly Irish pub in Manhattan. After a long days work I was hoping for some cider. They had only one which was angry orchard on tap. And another bottled one. I was happy with angry orchard on tap although I wish they had more selection. read more

Loved visiting McGee's Pub. The atmosphere feels warm, lively, and full of character. Very cool place for fans of the TV show How I Met Your Mother, since this pub inspired the bar from the series. Beer was great, staff was friendly, and the whole place had that classic New York pub feeling. Definitely worth stopping by. read more

This pub so often featured in the sitcom How I Met Your Mother, was a must stop visit for my daughter who is a fan of the sitcom show. Upon entry, you will see lots of memorabilia all over the walls from the show. We decided to sit for a break & order some appetizers and drinks. We opted for 2 orders of cheesy potatoes as everything else was pretty pricey & we weren't super hungry. Our server was okay, & checked up on us occasionally. We were seated right by the front door, and would constantly see people & fans of the show coming in & out the pub to get photos of the place. Our total for 2 appetizers and 3 drinks was a staggering $52! Little did we know, that they charge for refills! I feel this should be mentioned beforehand, otherwise we would've opted for ice water. I know NYC is on the pricier side, but this is just over the top!!! It was a fun experience being where the show was filmed and sitting next to the booth where the film crew sat, but this was just way too pricey for bar food, and not that tasty. Not sure I'd call it a tourist trap as there seemed to be many locals in here, but be prepared for the hefty bill if you decide to visit. read more

If you're "How I Met Your Mother" fan, you've got to come here. The shows creators frequented this pub and drew inspiration while designing McLaren's. The pub has a few drinks inspired by the show. We ordered the pineapple incident and wait for it cocktails. Both were okay. For dinner, we ordered penne a la vodka, corned beef ruben, and old-fashioned chicken pot pie. The serving size is generous! The pie itself can easily be shared by 2 people. The vibe is fun! Our server was ever smiling and talking, and we had a good time with her. I had reserved a table for us on Yelp, but I think walk-ins are acceptable too. Do visit. read more

Surprisedly, this place wasn't busy when I visited during the night. I made a reservation, but luckily it was not crowded at all. I didn't watch HIMYM but I was told that the bar does not look like the show. I believe the show is just inspired by the bar. I wished the bartender checked up or even looked at our direction. The bar was not really crowded, but we barely got checked up on. We ordered iced chocolate roll and a moscule mule. The iced chocolate roll consisted of patron xo cafe and root beer. Both of the drinks tasted great. I barely tasted the alcohol which I usually prefer. This place is a chill place to hang at, but I don't think I'll be coming here again. read more

Unfortunately, my experience here didn't meet my expectations. The customer service should and could be much, much better. I'm a big, big, BIG fan of HIMYM, and I was visiting NYC from California and was excited to visit here. I walked in and they sent me upstairs, but I was empty, so I decided to come back down and sit at the main bar. No one approached me at first. After a few minutes, this guy behind the bar showed up, and when I smiled at him, he said, "Hi, can I see a menu, please?" He just said he worked upstairs and left. Didn't call anyone else either. I returned to use the restroom, came back down, and sat on the other side of the bar. Then the female bartender gave me the QR code to scan and look at the menus. She was ok, but not super friendly like you would expect. I ordered the sweet Pineapple incident and the three sliders with fries. Average food. Overpriced in my opinion. She also offered me a complimentary drink since she made one by mistake, and I didn't wanna mix two different kinds of alcohol, so I stuck with my pineapple incident. Yes, there are posters of the cast all around but I guess any bar can hang those pictures and references to the show. I suggest to just stop by, walk inside, take a few pictures inside and leave ro go get dinner / lunch and drinks somewhere else. read more

Stopped here later after a show because we were hungry. The writers for How I met your mother used to come here a lot when they were working on the show. The bar on the show is loosely based on it. There are a few drinks inspired by the show as well. They have their own beer as well as some others. We had the sliders (both chicken and burgers) and they were quite tasty. Perfect late night snack. Most of the staff were too young to even know anything about the show (which shows that we are getting old), but it was quite fun. read more

The bar was decorated for Christmas, which added a festive touch. They have a lot of How I Met Your Mother memorabilia around the place, but overall, it felt underwhelming. We were seated by the women's bathroom, which only had a single stall and constantly had a line. It was an awkward spot to hold a conversation with people hovering near our table the entire time. The service was slow--it took so long to take our order that we only had time for two drinks before leaving. We tried the Wait For It... ($12.00) and Barney's Blackout ($13.00), but neither were particularly strong or well-crafted. It's worth a visit once to check out the bar that inspired HIMYM, but I wouldn't go in with high expectations. read more

Solid Midtown Pub with Great Food and Friendly Service A few friends of mine were visiting from out of state, and we ended up at McGee's Pub kind of on a whim. It was busy but not overwhelming, and we found a nice spot at the bar. We ordered a bunch of appetizers to share -- the crispy chicken was the winner for me (that honey mustard sauce was addictive). My friends went for the hummus and nachos, and everyone seemed happy with their picks. The bartender was friendly and kept things moving even though the place was pretty active. Service overall was great -- casual but attentive. I finished off with a chocolate lava cake that hit the spot. Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. It's not the fanciest place in Midtown, but it's comfortable, lively, and a great stop if you're looking for good food and a relaxed atmosphere. I'd definitely come back. read more

The darkened onion gravy was the best gravy I've ever had, the bangers (sausage) were delicious and even the vegetables had the best flavor I've ever experienced. I had the (Gay Pirate) drink and I'm pretty sure it was straight liquor, to which I'm not complaining. read more

We made a reservation here because I was concerned that it might be a bit touristy due to the "How I Met Your Mother" notoriety this place received. We had a table pretty much ready when we arrived. The food service was quick for the place being relatively busy. The bar service, on the other hand was not very quick. My Guinness was served promptly, but my wife's vodka/grapefruit juice never arrived, so she ordered a Stella, which came right away. The moral to this story is that they appear to handle beer and shots of Jameson's well, but anything more than that will overwhelm the bar staff. I was a bit put off that my wife's beer wasn't comped, but that's their business decision. The food was very good and properly seasoned. If you can get a table, you won't be disappointed in your decision to eat here. read more

McGee's Pub Growing up How I Met Your Mother was one of my favorite shows, so I definitely had to see the inspiration. As someone who owns Barney's famous 'Ducky Tie' I had to get that as my drink. Ducky Tie: Bacardi Limon, Citronge Orange, Fresh Lime & Cranberry Juice (12). It was a very very good drink, and surprisingly, their drinks were not that expensive in comparison to the rest of New York. I had a great time sipping on their speciality drinks and looking around to see pictures of the crew. I will be back next time I visit NYC! read more

Maybe it was a deep fat fryer thing, but I respectfully suggest the cook be given a little additional training. The fish batter was hard on the outside, and the fish was completely mushy on the inside. Like, gray mush. The fries were lukewarm. The mushy peas and the tartar sauce were served in little covered plastic disposable containers. I'm not a fan of that, but I get it is convenient. I truly wanted to like this place, and except for my one experience with the food, I would certainly return. People were having fun, and I did as well. I believe if they become a little more attentive in the kitchen, this place is a five star pub.

We called the very next morning and were told our bag had been FOUND and was being held in Lost & Found. We were specifically told to come pick it up. So, as out-of-town visitors staying in New Jersey, we spent nearly $100 on an Uber and several hours of our day returning to retrieve it. When we arrived, the bag had mysteriously vanished. What followed was one of the most ridiculous customer service experiences I've ever had. We were met by a group of very young, completely unprepared hostesses who seemed utterly clueless about the situation. Nobody knew where the bag was. Nobody knew who had logged it. Nobody knew who we spoke to on the phone. Nobody appeared interested in finding answers. I repeatedly asked for a manager and got nowhere. It felt like nobody in the building had the authority, training, or desire to solve a problem that their own staff created. Let's review: Your employee tells us the bag is there. We spend nearly $100 on transportation to come get it. We arrive. The bag is gone. And the response is essentially a collection of blank stares and shoulder shrugs. No urgency. No accountability. No explanation. No solution. I've never seen a business so casually waste a customer's time and money. We left feeling completely dismissed and frankly wondering whether anyone at Fraunces Tavern has any idea what customer service is supposed to look like. Hundreds of dollars spent at the establishment. Nearly $100 spent returning because we trusted what we were told. And in the end, absolutely nothing except aggravation, frustration, and a complete loss of confidence in this business. One of the worst customer service experiences I have ever had.

This bar is an abomination and I will never set foot there again. Not only were we kicked out by a man not on duty, but the man also made some outrageous racial accusations. Me and some of my friends went to this bar last year and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. However, me and three friends went to the bar for some drinks again and an African American male approaches us and says, "I'll get these empty drinks for you, I don't work right now, but I will do it," as we had some empty drinks set on the table. We all say "okay, thank you," a little confused and the female friends I am with move their phones from the middle of the table, since drinks were surrounding them to avoid spillage from the drinks onto their phones. The man then says "you grabbed your phones right when I came" and then after explaining why my friends had moved their phones, the man says "and you know what else, we have Donald Trump as a president." My friend, calmer than I, goes to speak with the man, while I go ask the bartender to speak. I ask the bartender why this African American man is implying that we are racist. He then says "I don't know he works here on the weekends." I explain why we are upset and that the man blind sided us for being racist just for moving phones, quite expensive objects, as to avoid liquid damage. Then the other man who said he was security on the weekends says, "I never said you were racist," as if making a scene for moving phones and bringing up trump has nothing to do with racism. This man, who had taken our empty drinks, comes closer and grabs me and tells me to get out of the bar, to which I look at the bartender and say "how can he kick me out he isn't even working I am just trying to understand why he is verbally attacking us?" Then the bartender looks at my friend and says "really only $1?!" as he examines the tip left from my friend obviously after how we were treated. I am moved towards the exit of the bar, since a man not on duty is physically grabbing me and removing me from the bar. While I wait by the exit, my friend still tries to speak with the man making racist implications towards us. As we wait by the exit, the bartender comes over and says "I don't know why he is being like this, he works here on the weekends, I have never seen him like this, he drinks girly drinks, you have nothing to be worried about." I reply saying "I drink girly drinks too," as a man myself. The Bartender then replies saying, "you had a beer," as if this man who works at the bar as security, and does not drink beer, is allowed to make racist implications because he drinks girly drinks. Also, the bartender completely disregards making a rude comment towards my friend about the tip and tries to play it off, like the off duty man did nothing wrong. Somehow, because of what you drink (not a beer), you are excused from making racist accusations towards customers when not on duty and allowed to physically remove customers from the bar. This is an absolute mockery of an establishment. read more

McGee's Irish Pub is an absolute gem that captures the true essence of Irish culture. From the moment we stepped foot inside, we were enchanted by the warm ambiance and friendly atmosphere. With its rustic wooden interior, traditional Irish decor, and lively music playing in the background, it felt like we had been transported straight to the heart of Ireland. One of the highlights of our delightful experience at McGee's was undoubtedly Curtis, the friendly Irish bartender. From the moment we took a seat at the bar, Curtis made us feel right at home. His infectious smile and genuine hospitality were truly unforgettable. It was evident that he took great pride in his work, as his dedication to providing excellent service was nothing short of remarkable. Curtis went above and beyond to ensure that our visit was nothing short of spectacular. His extensive knowledge of Irish whiskey and beer recommendations left us in awe. He skillfully guided us through their extensive drink menu, making sure we found something that perfectly suited our tastes. His passion and enthusiasm for the pub's offerings were palpable, and his expert mixology skills were truly impressive. Not only did Curtis excel at creating exquisite beverages, but he also excelled at engaging in friendly conversation. He took the time to get to know each customer and treated everyone with genuine warmth and kindness. Whether it was sharing interesting stories about the history of Irish pubs or simply making us laugh with his quick wit, Curtis made the entire experience even more memorable. His attentiveness to detail was commendable. No empty glass was left untouched, and he always ensured that our delicious food arrived promptly. His impeccable timing in checking up on us without being intrusive was a true testament to his exemplary service. Thanks to Curtis, our evening at McGee's Irish Pub was truly unforgettable. His attentiveness, knowledge, and friendly demeanor set the bar high for exceptional service. We left the pub with not only fond memories of the delightful atmosphere but also a newfound appreciation for Irish hospitality. If you are seeking an authentic Irish experience, look no further than McGee's Irish Pub and be sure to request Curtis as your bartender. The combination of excellent service, traditional ambiance, and Curtis's friendly Irish charm ensures an exceptional time that you won't soon forget. read more

I can't describe how surprised I was that I found out that in New York there is a bar dedicated to my favorite TV show( How i met your mother, seriously, just watch it))). The first time I was there in 2014, I celebrated my 21st birthday with friends there. We ordered burgers and snacks (such as wings, cheese sticks, chicken breast something else) but we really liked the food and cocktails, after that evening I loved Rum with cranberry juice, by the way the items from menu are also associated with the show. In this bar, I like buffalo wings the most, because the wings that they buy are not cheap (I distinguish them because I worked in a pizzeria and saw different wings that you wouldn't want to eat after cooking because they looked like as if someone had eaten them and brought you the leftovers) The one thing i dont like about this place and all restaurants in NY is that waiters are bothering me every five - ten minutes to ask if im good or may be i want to order something , you know i can ask if i want something. I understand that servers have timing in terms of how often they should check customers , but i dont like at all but this is general problem for all restaurants in NY , its just my preference i cant say that this is the disadvantage of McGees After that, I started going to this bar at least once a month and will definitely go again, because it is very atmospheric and reminds me of the days when I was very happy and surrounded by my friends. read more

Came here with my coworkers for a mid day lunch and some beer. A coworker of mine ordered a Ballast Point, the beer was completely flat. He drank maybe a third of it before finally saying something and our waitress immediately said he would be charged for it because he drank half (it was not even close to half), but fine, he was ok with it but mentioned how it's flat and did not taste good. Maybe the lines or keg needed to be changed, the waitress got extremely defensive saying the lines and keg were fine. A few of us had tried his beer just to see how flat it was, and it was awful. We spoke up and told her this and she wouldn't budge. Eventually she took the beer off the bill but made a point to say the beer tasted fine whenever she would come by our table. The food was completely mediocre for the insane prices and we barely ate our meals. We've all worked in the industry and have friends who continue to do so, I was completely thrown off by the response of our waitress and the service. Everyone has a bad day and I hope it was a one time thing, but I felt it wasn't justified to argue back to us when we're simply saying the beer wasn't right. read more

I'm a huge fan of HIMYM so when I planned to visit NY, McGee's pub is a must go to place for me. I thought the interior of the pub would be the same as the one in the series, but it wasn't after I searched it in Google. Nevertheless, I'm still excited to dine here. When I got there I was happy to see pictures of Ted and the gang. The greeter greeted us and guide us to the second floor since we are having dinner. After we seated for a while, the server approached us and asked what we want to drink. I was looking at the cocktail menu with the HIMYM inspired drink, I asked her for something sweet and she just pointed to one specific drink and said 'this'. She didn't try to engage with us. I was disappointed with the service they have because the server was kinda rude. It wasn't like the usual service we would expect. When we got our check, my friend and I were shocked because they put automatic 20% gratuity in our bill. We didn't even get the service that we expected. And I know they can put auto gratuity only if there's a party of 5 or more. Other than that, everything was fine here like the food and drink. read more

STAY WELL AWAY!!! Overpriced frozen food and horrendous customer service from all levels of employees and owners too (WORST IV EVER COME ACROSS). Absolute tourist trap, save your money!! The server charged me the wrong amount (that i was later told was apparently my fault), when i told the server this my card was then charged twice more!! i ended up paying $200 for a $60 meal!! not a single apology, i was made to feel like it was all my fault and had to wait 2 weeks to be refunded. Whilst eating my frozen fish and chips i had to repeatedly listen to the waitress cursing as she was too busy having personal conversations with other members of staff. UNPROFESSIONAL, RUDE, HORRENDOUS CUSTOMER SERVICE, BELOW AVERAGE OVERPRICED FROZEN FOOD. The closest it gets to HIMYM is a few cocktails named after the show and pictures on the wall.

You will enjoy this place and even more if you are a true fan of How I met your mother! I had the McGee's burger and I just thought of Marshall's words to Robin: Just a Burger? Just a burger. Robin, it's so much more than "just a burger." I mean...that first bite--oh, what heaven that first bite is. The bun, like a sesame freckled breast of an angel, resting gently on the ketchup and mustard below, flavors mingling in a seductive pas de deux. And then...a pickle! The most playful little pickle! Then a slice of tomato, a leaf of lettuce and a...a patty of ground beef so exquisite, swirling in your mouth, breaking apart, and combining again in a fugue of sweets and savor so delightful. This is no mere sandwich of grilled meat and toasted bread, Robin. This is God, speaking to us in food. Definitely coming back whenever I'm in the city! Hopefully soon read more

Besides being a huge huge fan for HIMYM, the food and service is seriously off the chart amazing. New York was third stop for my vacation, I am very impresed with the service and welcome that was delivered by the staff at McGee's. A massive thank you and shout out to the door host/reception Kaitlyn. Me and my friends were having an amazing day from the shopping, sight viewing, the glamor of broadway shows etc, and the massive smile from Kaitlyn and dinner at McGee's just became the cherry on the dessert. I ordered a burger for the night, just like the episode in HIMYM, 'best burger ever' Thanks for a great meal and service for the night, more restaurants need to have a lot more welcoming and friendly door hosts like Kaitlyn, it's restaurant's first presentation towards customer and a big smile is always brilliant.

My husband and I went into McGee's on our first night visiting the city. We went in because it was the inspiration for McClaren's on HIMYM, and I love that show! It's definitely loosely based off this bar as there's only few similarities, but everything else was top notch. We ordered the spinach dip, "woo" wings, and "the best burger in New York" with curly fries. Everything was so good! The Executive Chef, Scottie, was talking to us and was super friendly and helpful! Our bartender was Paulie, who had an Irish accent which was fun, and he was awesome! His drinks were great, his service was perfect, and his personality and conversation was entertainment enough! I would definitely recommend coming into the bar as our experience could not be beat! We will be back again before having to return to Atlanta! read more

I ended up at McGee's because of its connection with HIMYM. Unlike some of the other reviews I've read, I knew that just because McLaren's might be based on McGee's didn't mean that McGee's would actually look like McLaren's. That being said, even though the bar doesn't look like McLaren's, there was nothing disappointing about this bar. First, the food is fantastic. Second, the staff are amazingly friendly and attentive. Third, McGee's has such a great and friendly atmosphere. I had such a great time that I will be sure to go back soon. I love HIMYM and am really glad that it brought me to McGee's. I would highly recommend this bar for anyone who would like to have a great time in a really great place. read more

We went to this bar mainly because of the HIMYM hype. The service was really below average. We wouldn't get any water served until we explicitly asked for it. The waitress was rushing us into buying food, so ordered McGee's combo - which was mainly ok. The chicken wings however were topped with vinegar: to our taste uneatable. Caution: On the bill they add a fixed tip of 20%. If you don't like the service you will have to take the bitter pill. Personally I find that very unfair to gastronomes really trying to deliver a high quality service to their customers. read more
