Beyond The Pale

Great New York spot to bring friends, family and have a good time. The weekends are especially good if you're into party mode but if you have a big crew, I would suggest making a reservation. Food and drinks on point as well

When we went after dinner on a weekday, there was a decent amount of seating, especially towards the back. There was a wide selection of different cocktails. Service was a bit slow as they were short staffed, and it took a while for someone to take our order. Cocktails were solid. Good place to go with a small group and talk in a more intimate setting.

Great drinks, delicious food and chill vibes. Great music. I felt bad that the lone bar tender was doing everything- bar tending, taking table orders, running food, making drinks, probably cooking too- will be back but staff more people to help the dude out

I almost never leave reviews, but this bar absolutely deserves one as a warning to others: do not come here. The overwhelming number of similar reviews are accurate—rude, and hostile bartenders who make patrons, particularly women, feel uncomfortable appear to be the norm. To the bald bartender who snapped at me that “this is New York City order your drink faster or go away” and who continued speaking aggressively to me even after I asked him twice to de-escalate: I really hope you find a less stressful job in your future, because you’re clearly not cut out for this. -Sincerely a fellow New Yorker

I didn't get any food, so no idea on that. However the staff here is a team. They are considerate, prompt, and friendly. They handle large parties, casual tourists, and of course the locals. I don't go to many bars anymore, (sober for 23+ years) but this place made me feel comfortable with all my friends. They make all their own syrups and from my friend's reviews amazing cocktails. Looking for a comfortable place to hang with friends? This is the place, stop looking.

$10 beers and a nice vibe. The place is very dark and cool, which adds to the atmosphere. I’d come back and do recommend it. However, they were short-staffed, so we had to order at the bar and carry everything to the table ourselves.

Don’t be fooled by the name it sounds like an early-2000s emo band, but the cocktails rock and the Guinness pint might just be the best in the city

One of the bartenders was clearly drunk and acted in a discriminatory and disrespectful way toward my group. We stood in line for about fifteen minutes while he repeatedly ignored us and served people who arrived after us. That alone was frustrating, but it got worse. He forgot who had ordered the drinks he was holding and started walking around asking people to claim them. When he came to us, we told him they weren’t ours but that we’d like to order when possible. In response, he shushed me, yelled that “I’d get my turn,” and gestured downward with his hands as if I were yelling—despite the fact that the confusion was entirely due to his mistake. We stepped outside to speak with the bouncer, who told us this kind of treatment is a regular occurrence for people like us. Go at your own risk.
