Daniel
βGreat bar with excellent service and friendly guests - what more could you ask for? The beer prices are reasonable, making it easy to enjoy another round. The staff is friendly, attentive, and quick. We had cheeseburgers - they were delicious! Guests under 21 are also welcome. Of course, they are not served alcohol, and this is strictly enforced. Thank you for a wonderful evening - we will definitely be back!β

Earl's Grille
βIt is what it is. Had a cold PBR and the best burger in NY. Yeah it comes on a paper plate but it's bar food that's good enough for a 5 star restaurant. I wish I had found it sooner, I'm leaving town tomorrow. Impressive liquor selection alsoβ
