Lexington Publick

Lexington Publick – ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5 Lexington Publick in Harlem is a fun spot to grab a drink and catch a game, but when it comes to the food, let’s just say it’s a mixed bag. I arrived there with friends, with plans to hangout before we continue on with our nightly activities….🤣🤣🤣 what does that even mean? Ok, focus! First off, the food. The chicken nuggets and jalapeño poppers had a little too much of a “well-done” vibe for my taste. I appreciate a good char, but these felt more like they’d been through a culinary boot camp! The chicken slider was another surprise—$17 for a grilled piece of chicken that was more shy than flavorful. I was expecting a fried chicken slider, (since that’s the title of the sandwich) but it seems the kitchen had other plans. Oh, each slider came with one sliced pickle. And that’s it. Just chicken, pickle and aioli. The chipotle aioli? A bit of a ghost, really—not much to write home about. Now, let’s talk about the fries. They were definitely the highlight of my meal! But shockingly, they didn’t come with the sliders, so I had to add them for another $9. I don’t know but by the time I finished, realizing I spent $26 on chicken sliders and fries, I couldn’t help but feel it was a tad on the pricey side. However, the frickles (fried pickles) were a delightful find! They had just the right crunch and flavor, which gave me hope for the rest of the menu. As for the atmosphere, it’s a great place to hang out! The chairs are comfy, and it’s a good spot to enjoy a game without feeling overwhelmed by noise, even when it’s busy. Plus, with no servers around, you’ll get to channel your inner bartender and head to the bar for your drinks, which is perfectly fine by me. So, if you’re looking for a lively spot in Harlem to enjoy drinks and watch a game, Lexington Publick can be considered a solid choice. Just make sure to come with a light appetite, and if you’re craving something hearty, perhaps consider ordering in! Cheers! 🍻

$5 beers and $1 hotdogs after 9pm. Can’t beat that deal!! Plus it was playing the Knicks playoff game. Fun spot!

Came in with a small group on 4th of July, later at night, and the bar wasn't too busy. Music wasn't loud so we could talk easily. Bartender super nice -- I asked for water at one point, and he just drew my attention to the water cooler sitting next to the bar that I'd totally looked right past haha. And we got the hot dogs because of the late night special, and they were genuinely good. Freshly grilled. Fries were delicious too. I'd honestly come back because of the food

Loved the atmosphere and the beer selection. Around 24 beers I think on tap to choose from. Also, interesting games like a very large foosball table (fits 3-4 each side). Fast and easy to access from across the Brooklyn bridge.

Great bar to hang out and play darts/pool. Bartenders are really friendly. Excellent happy hour deals.

The hotdogs are great here- I got the Japanese Dog and it was a unique and fun flavor with interesting toppings. If you go, don’t skip out on the waffle fries. The house sauce was great too !!

Love this place!!! Good music!! Good prices!! Decent food!! The atmosphere was fun, good vibes and no drama from my experience. If you're in the area, check them out!!

Food is amazing. You can order something unusual, which is the lamb merguez, North African sausage, Kevin the bartender was amazing, drinks were top notch and atmosphere just perfect, first time there, definitely not the last

Lexington Publick was in the news recently. Since they started trivia nights they increased their post pandemic numbers by 50%. The place gets packed with people that love to guess the answers to trivia questions just like playing Trivial Pursuit at home! So if you prefer to socialize outside of the confines of your apartment while enjoying the game, this is the place for you. Especially if you're single. You never know who you'll meet. While you're there check out the wide variety of Hot Dogs they serve. They definitely have a unique menu.

Chill local pub. Good for grabbing a quick drink after work or watching sports (they have a lot of big TVs). Usually just a bartender or two on service so you order both food and drinks at the bar. They have decent beers on tap and they come properly poured. Cocktails are basic. They serve "gourmet" (I'd say unique and/or loaded) hot dogs and a few other fried food items which pair well with beer.

This pub replaced what used to be The Rochard. Not sure if it's the same owner and that they decided to just change up the name. This is for sure a local bar, not one where college kids invade the space and turn it into a party. They have a unique draft menu that my friend and I appreciate. They're lacking on the bar food, as they only serve hot dogs, wings, and fries essentially. Wished they would expand their menu to other items.

We were early for dinner and wanted a few drinks beforehand. We saw this place had Happy Hour and it didn't disappoint. Beer, wine and cocktail specials from 4-7pm. It's very relaxed inside and wasn't crowded at all. I can picture this spot getting lively on the weekends. The bartender was super friendly and made sure we were happy with our order. I got the Grand Street Martini which was their version of an extra dirty martini. It went down really smooth. During Happy Hour all specialty cocktails are $11 which is a great price. While we sat there, we were surrounded by the smell of hot dogs being cooked. We'll definitely be back to try the food.

The wings are delicious, but the customer service is lacking. They do have NFL Sunday ticket, which is, frankly, the only reason to go. John Lackey.

We came here on a Saturday night for drag bingo with Phoebe and had a blast. For each bingo round you have to buy new boards for one dollar, but we didn't mind because throughout the night they were giving out many many free shots and baked goods from phoebe. Can't wait to come back!

I'm really happy this has made it's way to the neighborhood! It's nice to have a local place to grab a bite and drink with great and friendly service. Lexington publick offers beer, wine and cocktails. It's a cozy atmosphere with bar seating and tables. (There's outdoor seating as well!) They also have multiple TVs to watch games and Tuesday night trivia. Although they have an extensive hot-dog Menu, their hot Buffalo wings with ranch are my favorite. They come extra saucy and delicious. Over the times I've come here I've had beers and wine on draft as well as a few of their cocktails. I wish they would rotate some of their draft beers a little more but I still enjoy what they have! If you're looking for a good espresso martini, I recommend the Carnegie Chill! Definitely stop in for a nice place to grab a drink.

Came for a relaxing night of my cousin and sister sister's birthday via zoom. I order a Guinness as it the highlight of the night kicking off St.Pat's feat! I brought the cake, both great and ambience excellent! Recommend for couples, groups or solo. Cheers!

Love this bar! Great food and good prices. But, the thing that makes it special are the employees. My bartender Lorna gave me exceptional service. Overall, amazing vibes.

If you like getting charged for 5 beers when you buy a pitcher you should go to this place. If you like it when the bartender isn't repeatedly around when you are looking to order in an empty bar you should go to this place. If you like cold Fries you should go to this place.

Really nice and chill bar on the UES. They have a great selection of hot dogs and plenty of TVs to watch sports. They also always have great music playing.

Trivia night, $6 Lexington Lager, $2 off all of their Thunder Dogs Menu. The Japanese Dog is amazing. We shared the Buffalo wings. Big projector screen for sports. Great addition to the neighborhood.

Staff and ambiance are great. The food menu needs a massive upgrade. It's basically hot dogs with various options. Nice size bar a tons of TV's. Just too bad there's literally no bar food. It's just hard to imagine a bar so empty on a Sunday with all three NY NFL teams were playing... and a Yankees game! I look forward to sending a new review if the owners sort out a proper menu. I think there's great potential here with some tweaks. If it remains a hot dog bar, my prediction for their success isn't great. To that point, I watched at least six people look and the menu and continue onward. I really hope they are successful and these are perhaps opening jitters.

Was in the area so I decided to stop by on the Sunday afternoon the place was filthy and overpriced. trying to become like all the other pop-up bars selling "craft" beers none of which appealed to me so I ordered 2 American beers $18 for 2 cans, first time and last time going there.

friendly staff. tiny, single person bathrooms. dive bar vibes. decent selection of beer. good for an after work drink or relaxed night out with friends!

I have been coming here for the last month and every experience I have had has been wonderful. The staff is knowledgeable and best of all they are friendly. I have had a conversation with every bartender that has worked and each of them are fun, exciting, and a good time. Even though this bar is new I can definitely see it being a hot spot in the future. It has outdoor seating, multiple TVs, and best of all they provide complimentary chips while you enjoy your time. I walked into this bar thinking it would be a one time thing and I have had no interest in going to other bars since. Great spot and highly recommend!!

This place is awesome. It's run by the guys who own Third Ave Ale house, and it's got the same kind of vibe of being a really nice sports bar. The beer selection is great, focusing mostly on the best NYC/greater NYC breweries. The also have draft wine and a great cocktail menu for a sports bar. The wings are amazing. And the hot dogs, OH the hot dogs. To call them hot dogs doesn't seem right because they go above and beyond. I had one that was a chorizo sausage with pineapple and pickled red onions, and another one that was a duck sausage with sautéed onions, bacon, and the best blue cheese crumbles I've ever had. Both were so freaking good. I'd love to see a bigger food menu like maybe a burger and some nachos (and ideally the tornado tots from 3rd Ave), but I will gladly be going back for the wings and dogs. All in all a great spot that I look forward to enjoying during the winter and beyond.

Nice neighborhood sports bar and light eats. Have lived in the neighborhood for years and finally made my first visit here. Much better traffic and vibe than previous incarnations at this location. Good eats too! I will definitely go back again.

Kelsey was wonderful! Very welcoming, friendly and excellent drinks. At the same time, there was an unruly guest who she handled with grace and ease and ensured an enjoyable experience for everyone there. We will definitely return for another thunderdog.

Was in town visiting friends and it was such a fun vibe! Bar tender Ben was so welcoming and friendly. I had a frozen aperol spritz and it was delish it seems like a great place to start or end your night- can't wait to check out a football game here!
