The 14 Best Irish Pubs In NYC - New York - The Infatuation
"A lot of Irish pubs are long-time neighborhood stalwarts, but none for as long as McSorley’s. The East Village bar has been around since 1854, and there’s literally a cobblestone with the message “Please help us keep our neighborhood in order” paved into the sidewalk out front. There’s sawdust on the floor, framed news articles and photos of regulars from the past 170 years on the walls, and they only offer light or dark beer, which they make themselves. And while this place can get overrun with the thirsty Thursday crowd, the fact of the matter is that it’s a part of NYC history, and a cool place to pop in for a beer and a cheese plate with a side of raw onions." - bryan kim, willa moore, will hartman, neha talreja, sonal shah
