New NYC Bar Alert: Tavern on Reade in Manhattan’s Tribeca

Located at 59 Reade Street in Manhattan’s Tribeca, Tavern on Reade picks up where the former Maxwell’s left off.  Tavern on Reade offers 16 draught beers and a $5 draught beer happy hour specials from 4pm until 7pm Monday through Friday.  The spot was still somewhat in soft-open phase when we visited, as the kitchen was not yet open.  Add in the friendly staff and this is definitely a spot to visit on your next afternoon or evening out bar hopping in Tribeca.

Our thoughts on Labor Day 2021

Because it marks the unofficial end of summer, Labor Day always brings a bit of sadness to us at Pub Crawl NYC.  In non-pandemic years, summer in NYC offers many opportunities of beautiful weather for NYC pub crawls and other city exploration.  September is still a good weather month in NYC and, if lucky, October can be as well.  But, those two months just aren’t quite the same as June, July and August.  Either way, Delta-variant depending, we look forward to a few more NYC bar crawls in the months ahead.  Happy Autumn!

A review of Spaghetti Tavern on Manhattan’s Upper West Side

Located at 425 Amsterdam Avenue in the old McAleer’s location on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, Spaghetti Tavern is basically a bar whose food menu focuses on several spaghetti dishes as well as Italian-influenced appetizers.  The feel of the spot is similar to the old McAleer’s – minus the Irish flag and a few other alterations.  Spaghetti Tavern offers outdoor seating and is great for people watching along Amsterdam Avenue while drinking the afternoon away.
