Our favorite non-holiday random Saturday of the year! The arrival of the First Saturday of March is very meaningful to us at Pub Crawl NYC. Though the calendar still says winter, March marks the end of the super-cold, long, dark winter months of December, January and February.  Spring (and good pub crawling weather) is just ahead.

And, if you’re looking for a pub crawl for today, the annual Hoboken, NJ St. Patrick’s bar crawl takes place today.  More info here.

We recently had the opportunity to visit a few bars in Manhattan’s West Side.  We’ll share some brief thoughts on one spot in particular, the recently-opened Giardino 54. Stay tuned.

Our NYC Bar of the Day: Fraunces Tavern, located at 54 Pearl Street in Manhattan’s Financial District.

Our NYC Italian wine bar of the day: The East Village location of Bar Veloce, at 175 Second Avenue.

We had a chance to pub crawl around Brooklyn recently, visiting such spots as Gowanus’ ParkLife and Fort Greene’s Fulton Hall.  Despite the frigid temperatures that day, we had a good time.  We’ll offer our thoughts on these two spots in the coming days.
