About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Charming
Kid-friendly

One of the oldest and most historic bars in the country, Neir’s Tavern is a destination for a casual drink, a hearty meal, and good company. Over 180 years old, Neir’s was home to Mae West’s first performance, scenes from Goodfellas, and countless other remarkable moments in history. Today, it still holds up to the same charming, laid-back, neighborhood bar that holds a special place in New Yorkers’ hearts.

Love Neir's Tavern! Wise Guys Trivia is great! It's totally different from any trivia you've ever done and the questions range from "Everyone knows that!" to "Who the heck knows that?!?!" allowing all participants and equal chance. It's not geared toward any particular age group either. At any given Trivia night, you'll find people from their early 20's to their 60's playing. Oh, and there are prizes along the way, too leading to final prizes of Neir's gift cards for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners. I never miss Trivia! I highly recommend you make a reservation for the next Wise Guys Trivia night!

Went there with my family for St. Patrick's day. The corned beef special was delicious. Of course, the corned beef was the star of the show, melt in your mouth deliciousness. The cabbage, carrots and potatoes were also tasty. Topped off the night with a delicious cheesecake drizzled with strawberry sauce, whipped cream and a cherry on top. The live band, The Scooches, played great music including some terrific Irish favorites .

Service was prompt and attentive. The food was delicious. We had the fish and chips and the corned beef and cabbage. I love the green margarita's for St. Patrick's Day and Guinness. Our friends had the chicken sandwich on sourdough bread with sweet potato fries and a cheese burger, all cooked to perfection! It was my husband's birthday and our friends' 40th anniversary and they each got a special slice of cheese cake, beautifully presented and everyone sang. The entertainment by the Scooches' performance was a lot of fun and we enjoyed the great atmosphere with a full house at Neirs Tavern!

Went to Neir's for dinner and Trivia. Their Happy Hour special is a great deal - 3 app combo for $12.99! They also have drink specials. After chowing down, it was Wiseguys Trivia time. The quwstions ranged from "Everyone knows that!" to "Who knows that?!?!" and everthing in between. Always a fun time!

Had a meet and greet today. Very exciting, and we ordered food and drinks while there. Once again, Neirs did not disappoint. A must try spot.

Went to Neir's for Bingo, one of their many monthly events. Had a great time and won a couple of prizes including a free appetizer! I love Neir's. You may come as a stranger, but you'll leave as a friend!
