The oldest bar in NYC. A little tucked away in the East Village but this Irish bar shouldn't be missed. Memorabilia everywhere from Houdini to Fireman's hats to Police badges. Bartenders are good, cheeseburger was small but good and the beer although without much flavor was good enough to have more than one.

One of the oldest pubs in NYC complete with sawdust on the floor and pot belly stove. They only serve 2 beers dark or light so no need to waste time on choice, just drink. The bar staff were great guys as well.

A great old bar with a ton of history. Order light or dark beer and enjoy McSorleys famous ale. Not much for food options so go for the ale.

Interesting pub dating back to before the Civil War with fascinating pictures cataloguing its history.Simple bar fare,like chilli and non fancy sandwiches,but serve dark and light beer of good quality.Great stop off on a hot day in Greenwich village.

Well worth a visit, very old time, dust sitting thick, must be genuine ,no designer could create such disorder. Only two beers, light or dark, preferred the the light. You receive two half filled glasses each time, 6.50 a pop, a little steep. Had a dish of cheese and onion with crackers and mustard delicious accompaniment with beer. Batman Shane... More

None of this is bad if you know what you are in for, it really is a NYC landmark and has breed itself into what it stands as today. Lots of tourists pass through, lots of people who... More

First night out in NYC hitting all the obligatory high points! - I'm so glad I eventually made it to McSorleys - the history is riveting and so is gazing about the place. But . . . it was a Friday at 7pm - it was packed with NYU students doing the end-of-week chugging; occasionally some suits would enter -... More

Our whistle stop tour around NYC had to include New York's oldest pub. It is a simple set up with a choice of two beers (dark and light) and payment is in cash only. The place was buzzing on a Friday night and felt great. The history is all around you and the décor fits really well into what they... More

A Must see....beer, sandwich, onions & mustard...the crowd is essential to the experience. Easiest choice is just walking in...history in the making
