"Though Swift HIbernian Lounge draws in crowds of students from neighboring colleges, it’s a place anyone passing through can enjoy a no-frills drink. There’s a long list of bottled and draft beers, but don’t skip over the mixed drinks portion of the menu. Try the Van Dimens Land, made with fresh pressed green apple juice and your choice of spirit, preferably Jameson Black Barrel Whiskey. Bonus: As the holidays near, the space gets decorated with wreaths and ornaments that hang from the ceiling to put you in the festive mood." - Rayna Rossitto
"Swift is another one of those Irish pubs that don’t require a steady stream of Jameson in order to remain bearable. It’s also an extremely cozy space with a good amount of seating and large draft beer selection. (There are a ton of Irish whiskeys too, if that’s your thing.) This is one of the best pubs in the city, and if you and your friends want to grab a few beers in a low-key bar populated with people who are probably young and attractive, you could do a lot worse than Swift. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation

"I go to Swift Lounge for an after-show drink; you can’t beat the jar drinks, the Chimney Swift is my go-to, and I like it a lot." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
"I saw that NE Broadway’s Swift Lounge will stay open until 2:30 a.m. Wednesdays through Saturdays starting today, reflecting restaurants extending their late-night hours as protocols change." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
