    perfect snakebite. tully pour. solid barman. great spot for final pre-game to the Garden.

    Be careful- left a tip and they enjoyed an extra $10 added themselves! 5 liquor and mixer drinks that took no more than 60 seconds to pour apparently deserves a $20 tip!

    Cuse baby!!

    Great bar to visit before or after the game. Located right near MSG. At one point it was a Syracuse bar. Really cool atmosphere with a lot of choices for beverages. Definitely come check them out.

    Best Guinness in town! Hopped in for a few beers and it was a perfect break during our urban hike.

    It's a popular pre game spot with MSG being at the end of the block, and always a great after work cold beer paradise.

    Sean's easily accommodated our group of six. We started with pretzels and spinach artichoke dip…read morewith chips. The dip was hot and cheesy. Chips were replenished..eventually. The pretzels were more like warm soft breadsticks, served with a cheese dip and mustard on the side. Decor is an advertisement for Guinness but it IS an Irish pub in NYC. I had the Irish stew, a crock of hot beef and vegetables in a tasty gravy. Others in the group enjoyed burgers and salads. Next time I'll try the shepards pie. Server was pleasant and answered our questions.

    Walking around New York City on a drizzly Sunday, I walked into Sean's Bar & Kitchen to grab lunch…read more Typical looking New York, Irish pub, TVs, great vibe. Service from the bartender was great. I ordered the fish and chips and a Bloody Mary. Everything was great up till then. Unfortunately, the food was a disappointment. 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.
