Hard to believe that today is the last day of November. The year 2012 has flown by, seemingly, just like many other recent years. NYC has seen some great new bars open up this year, particularly some additions to the Hell’s Kitchen Beer Bar Crawl, including Beer Authority at 300 West 40th Street and New York Beer Company at 321 West 44th Street. If you enjoy quality beer, you need to visit these two spots. Here’s hoping a few more quality beer spots open for business in the month of December.

New bars we need to visit
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?

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.






Where to pub crawl this weekend?
After being out of town one weekend and enduring impact of Hurricane Sandy the next, we are eager to get back to bar hopping around the five boroughs! Where to pub crawl this weekend? We still have several new establishments to check out, especially some Lower Manhattan spots, such as Cocktail Bodega in LES and Pouring Ribbons in the East Village. We hope these spots were not adversely impacted by Sandy. It’s also about time to visit Greenpoint/Williamsburg again.
