Bi-level tavern with a rooftop beer garden offering a menu of American comfort grub.
"When: Mon-Fri, 4pm-7pm The Deal: $7 Beer; $8 Wine; $9 Select Cocktails Tavern 29 is a two-story bar with TVs, chandeliers, and exactly one thing that sets it apart: a rooftop. It isn’t very high, so you won’t get much of a view, but there a bunch of picnic tables that are perfect for outdoor group drinking in Nomad. And if the weather isn’t great, you can grab a table inside and eat a burger." - neha talreja, bryan kim
"This is the kind of place people don't expect to find in Murray Hill: a Belgian gastro-pub with a crazy beer selection, crazy-good food and a super charming rustic garden. To top it off, The Cannibal has an in-store butcher shop to remind you there's a good reason they call themselves that. The food both here and at their attached sister restaurant, Resto, is consistently great." - Marcelo Cardoso
"If you work around Nomad, your outdoor Happy Hour options are mostly limited to waiting in line for the Eataly roof and drinking wine out of a coffee cup in Madison Square Park. Which is why you should also know about Tavern29. The indoor area in this multi-level space is like an upscale sports bar, but you’re here for the rooftop beer garden. It’s surrounded by taller buildings on all sides, but the picnic tables are always full of people due to the big menu of drinks and bar food, and Happy Hour until 7pm." - matt tervooren
"Despite being surrounded by significantly taller buildings and therefore having a very unimpressive view, the roof of Tavern 29 is still a nice place to drink when it’s warm out. For the colder months, there’s a two-story indoor area with a few chandeliers and your typical pub decor. It’s nothing fancy, just a place to eat a burger, have a few pints, and watch some sports on TV. For discounted drinks, try the Happy Hour that runs until 7pm on weekdays." - Bryan Kim, Matt Tervooren
"When you think about multi-story sports bars in Murray Hill, you may picture places like Tonic, and decide that you’d rather just watch the game on silent in your apartment while your roommate plays Sweet Child O’ Mine on the synthesizer. But Tavern29 is different. It’s much more low-key than Tonic, and is a popular Happy Hour spot for people who work in the area. The huge space has a ton of seating options indoors and in the rooftop beer garden, and wherever you sit, you can watch sports and order from a long menu of beer and solid bar food." - matt tervooren
