"When your friend says, “Let’s go check out a beer bar near Bryant Park,” you may assume that their office moved to Midtown, or they need someone to drink with after their ice skating date didn’t pan out. But The Ginger Man actually has enough going on that you should check it out whenever you want a big space with a huge beer selection (around 70 options on tap) in a convenient location. The back room looks like the common room of a grad library, so keep it in mind when you want to drink beers on a couch that’s not in your apartment." - matt tervooren

"In terms of selection, this is one of the best beer bars in the city, and one of the best bars full-stop near Bryant Park. It’s nice and spacious, which also makes it a prime Happy Hour spot for all the finance and lawyer people getting out of work around there. There are also couches in the back, which for some reason seems to be important to people." - katherine lewin, hillary reinsberg

"We’re sorry to inform you, but you have made the wrong decision by agreeing to see this person who’s still in love with you. It’s too late to back out now though (since it’s happening in 45 minutes). Going to a restaurant is absolutely out of the question. Instead, you need a bar that’s dark, semi-sterile, and the opposite of romantic. The Ginger Man should do the trick. It’s a giant bar in Midtown East where most of the people standing next to you probably work in finance - a career with very little left to be desired." - Hannah Albertine

Great beer menu including some hard to find Belgians and Vermont beers on draft the day we were there...fairly basic but solid and tasty food menu. Very chill and released atmosphere - I could have stayed all day. Excellent service.

It's an average bar. There are no TVs so it's nice not to have sports playing everywhere. I'm rating it 3 stars because it was an average bar. Nothing wrong with it but nothing special. Nice if you are in the area but not worth a special trip itself. The staff was friendly. The entrance is wheelchair accessible.

Very well lived-in New York bar with an incredible beer selection. The sort of very, very long bar you find at the best NYC institutions with lots of floor space to mingle for the after work crowd. Would absolutely return.

I love visiting my home town. Walking around Manhattan I got the urge for some hard cider. I did some googling and found the Ginger Man. Not the best cider selection (Brooklyn Cider House and Bad Seed are better), but I enjoyed the atmosphere and the selection they had. The bartender (thanks Natalie!) was sweet and fun to talk to and the clientele was cool. I'll definitely come back when I'm in midtown ... And thirsty 😉👍🍺

They have a great selection of craft beer. Erick, the waiter was very very knowledgeable of the types of craft beer. They had IPAs, sours, stouts and more. Their food was great. Shrimp salad was fresh and their prosciutto, socolitto and VT cheese with the apples, walnuts, spicy raisins and fresh bread were delectable. Definitely coming back

Went in here because i am a ginger man and while I didnt expect a free drink for this, I did think I would get treated at least like a human being. Waitress was extremely rude which put a downer on the excellent range of beers, cheese was probably better than I thought at the time as well. I finished with a sour beer but I don't think the waitress got the joke. Just an overall shame.

Daily beer menu printed on recycled paper. Great service and beers. Went on a Tuesday night around 10pm. Excellent atmosphere. Bar full but helped promptly. Vicki behind the bar was nice.

Reviewing late as I came in August. I was just exploring Manhattan for a day as I had 13 hours between flights. Stopped here for lunch and got a flight of beers. Food was great, beer was brilliant with a wide selection. Atmosphere was nice but I came as soon as it opened as my timing was off with jet lag so it took a little while for people to come in. The lad behind the bar was helpful and chatty. He helped me pick out a bunch of local beers and kept me company, which was nice as I was traveling alone. Would come again if I ever travel back over the pond.
