Several new spots have either just opened for business or are about to open. We look forward to bar hopping/pub crawling to these new spots. Two in Manhattan’s Lower East Side have caught our attention: Subject at 188 Suffolk and Todd’s Mill at 162 Orchard. Another spot, Dolan’s, at 533 Ninth Avenue in Manhattan’s Hell’s Kitchen wasn’t on any of our usual sources; we just passed by it the other day. That’s our favorite way of learning about recently-opened establishments! As always, we’ll provide brief reviews of these (and other) spots in the coming days and weeks. Stay tuned.

The Holiday Season is upon us!
Thanksgiving has come and gone. We hope everyone had a safe and relaxing holiday. December is just around the corner, and with it, Holiday parties and the like. We hope to get on a pub crawl before the end of 2012. If you’re looking for a pub crawl with a Holiday theme, the folks at Santa Con NYC are having their annual event on Saturday, December 15.
How we plan to spend Small Business Saturday
In honor of Small Business Saturday, we will be bar crawling today! Since nearly all bars are small businesses, we can’t think of a better way to celebrate Small Business Saturday!
Happy Black Friday!
If you’re looking for something to do after you’ve completed your Black Friday shopping, why not go on a pub crawl?
Happy Thanksgiving!
Pub Crawl NYC wishes you a safe and Happy Thanksgiving.
Happy Wednesday night before Thanksgiving!
Where will you be bar hopping tonight?
A visit to Hair of the Dog on Manhattan's Lower East Side
The folks behind Jake’s Dilemna, Down the Hatch et al are at it again. This time, they’ve set up a location at Orchard & Stanton. If you’ve been to their other locations (and there are many around Manhattan), this one is similar. A sports bar (we counted 20 television monitors during our visit) offering numerous drink specials depending on the day the day of the week, Hair of the Dog is actually in a good location because the Lower East Side really doesn’t have a place like it. There aren’t many sports bars south of Houston and not too many bars period that are open during the daylight hours in this nabe. Like their other locations, Hair of the Dog opens at 11am daily and goes late into the night. If you’re looking for something a little different next time you’re out in the LES, check out Hair of the Dog.

One of the more humerous bar sidewalk sandwich boards we've seen
This was recently seen outside of the bar Mother’s Ruin on Spring Street in Manhattan’s Soho.
The status of some South Street Seaport bars two weeks after Sandy
We took a short walk through the area recently. In short, many of the bars remain closed. Only Jeremy’s Ale House and Meade’s were open for business at the time of our brief tour. Everything else we passed by was not open, including Heartland Brewery, Fresh Salt, Stella, Keg 229, Bin 220, Nelson Blue and the Paris Cafe. If you know a more detailed status of any of these bars, please drop us a comment or email. We hope every single establishment can re-open. We’ve enjoyed all of them on several occasions. Below are a few photos from our tour.
