Sat Feb 02 08:34:02 -0800 2008 161009 ceriii 1 3358439 Maybe start at Paddy Reilly's on 2nd which is the only all draft Guiness Bar in the world supposedly. It's alright for a beer but then I would move on elsewhere. Molly's Sheeban on 3rd avenue is right on the way downtown for an awesome burger, onion rings and Guiness. Then maybe head to 11th street bar which is just a chill place that also has both on tap I think. Then there are tons of options from there- maybe McSorleys to switch it up a bit? Hope this is a helpful start! Sat Feb 02 09:24:34 -0800 2008 3358334 11223 roze 2 3358510 3rd ave is your bet. there is no shortage of pubs stretching from the high 30's to the 20's. some are painful. the classic spots are McCormick's, Molly's (a favorite for sure), and Rolf's. there are tons others ... Fitzgerald's, Hairy Monk, Bull Head Tavern, Cooper Door, Plug Uglies ... the list goes on and on. For REALLY interesting beer and food, the best place in the neighborhood is Resto ... although save this one when you're not doing a bar crawl .

Not sure about their food menu but they have yummy warm pretzels that taste pretty good after a few! Sat Feb 02 11:27:27 -0800 2008 3358334 58485 poutinelover 2 3360803 Ginger Man is awesome. Love your name btw!! Sun Feb 03 08:21:11 -0800 2008 3358743 11223 roze 1 3358812 Check out Stout near Herald Square. Good pours and the food is pretty respectable for pub grub. Sat Feb 02 11:53:16 -0800 2008 3358334 40108 jakew8 1 3359382 Waterfront Ale House, Corner Bistro, Molly's Sat Feb 02 15:35:50 -0800 2008 3358334 10216 Lucia 1 3360119 Love Molly's too.....Puck Fair has a good pint, good grub & a nice lively vibe as well. Sat Feb 02 20:37:05 -0800 2008 3358334 68332 Huck 1 3360753 faces and names on 54th and 7th...ask for Linda she'll take great care of you Sun Feb 03 07:59:11 -0800 2008 3358334 95063 EastCoastWineMan 1 3360826 Agree - Hairy Monk ( i like the wings)&( Molly's (burger). Jimmy's #43, Burp Castle and McSorley's are all on the same street. Jimmy's has a great pub grub type menu and chill atmosphere. And down the street nearby is Swift's and Slainte. You can easily spend 24 hours crawling in the east village. www.murphguide.com has lot's of suggestions. Sun Feb 03 08:29:00 -0800 2008 3358334 107418 steeltowngrl 2 3361648 Swift doesn't serve food, right? But I might add it is owned by the same guys that own Puck Fair that does serve food.

Sun Feb 03 08:47:47 -0800 2008 3358334 124622 Spiritchaser 1 3361871 Select one neighborhood or area and focus on it. I'd suggest the Village. Whitehorse Tavern, Blind Tiger, Vol du Nuit, etc. (Don't miss the fries at Vol du Nuit.) Unless you're a frat boy or want to hang out with frat boys, I'd avoid the 3rd Avenue row of bars. The same can be said about the UES and, to some extent, the UWS. Sun Feb 03 15:27:58 -0800 2008 3358334 157720 gekko
