The Milton

A friend took me there for a quick dinner, my first time there. I had fish and chips, best one I ever had in NYC! The beer batter was Delicious, crunchy to perfection, not too salty and tasted natural. The cod was piping hot and so juicy and tender, where usually I get some stringy ones. The potatoes were really good as well just right in every way. I didn't taste the mayo but the tartar sauce was extremely good. Our waitresses were extremely friendly and nice. Atmosphere was a but too dark for me, it did convey the feeling of an English pub which I love but a tad dark. There was live jazz music on a Monday night which some might love, not for me, I am not a fan and it made it hard to conversate. I would definitely recommend.

Thrilled to have this cosy neighborhood pub with a wonderful happy hour served by an excellent bartender! The fish & chips and the cottage pie were a taste from across the pond ~ now only if they can add Sunday roast with Yorkshire pudding 😉

This is a great place to have a beer and enjoy a grilled cheese with tomato soup! Steve the bartender is cute too! Come see him! The vibe is great here, too!

Had an early dinner today. Party of 4 with 1 being immuno compromised. Restaurant was beyond accomodating as far as seating us away from other diners (it was too hot to sit outside) Food was excellent and service was amazing! We had the spinach & artichoke dip to start and it came with homemade chips which were delicious. Two of us had fish & chips - extra crispy on the outside without being dry inside - so good! Others had cottage pie and Irish burrito which they both enjoyed. If we are ever in the area again, we will be back!

I'm in NYC for the week from Virginia, so I expect any restaurant I go to, to be really good, but The Milton was awesome! Fabulous food, amazing NYC vibe and atmosphere, and friendly staff. My wife and I shared the fish and chips, and one may wonder how any restaurant could improve on such a common dish, but the Milton did it. Fish was cooked to perfection and those fries were just right. My son had the cottage pie that he said was incredibly good, and his partner had the tuna tar-tar which she pronounced to be fabulous. Next time we're in the city, we'll be back. Thanks!

Went there last night with a few friends & we went to the bar to order a drink when some girl came over drunk and demanded that we get out of her way and when we said we're just ordering a drink at the bar she swore at us, said she works there as a bartender and made a whole scene because apparently she was special - she then asked the bartender on shift to "deal with us" & without question he too followed her lead and made the whole thing bigger than it needed to be - if that's the way staff treats first timers, not a place I'd want to frequent - we left right after and only after I said we'd post a review they came out to try to get us not to.

Have come here twice for dinner and enjoyed our experience both times! The ambiance is spacious between tables (just watch out when crossing the street’s bike lane lol) The first time we came, we noticed there were a lot of appetizers we wanted to try, but opted for entrees (figuring that we’d come back to try the appetizers). We ended up getting the chicken sandwich and fish and chips. Both were pretty tasty - the chips (fries) are great. When they give you dips / condiments like ketchup, they’ll give it to you in small plastic containers (which is not great for the environment, but obviously have to be safe with Covid). I did wish that my fish and chips came with the small side of mashed peas that typically come with this dish. The second time we visited, we order a bunch of appetizers including the chicken nuggets, grilled cheese with tomato soup, side of chips (fries), and the Mac and cheese. My friend wasn’t a huge fan of the chicken nuggets (he prefers McDonald’s biggest 🙄 haha) but I enjoyed them. The Mac and cheese was also pretty good and the bread crumbs on top were the perfect addition. Our favorite appetizer was definitely the grilled cheese and tomato soup though. The bread used for the grilled cheese was thin but perfectly lightly browned. Although the cheese itself wasn’t a blend or anything fancy, it was that perfect grilled cheese when you want some comfort food. I would definitely come back and order the grilled cheese. For drinks, we tried the mojito, mango margarita, and strawberry margarita. The strawberry marg was definitely the winner (but could’ve been stronger). Would definitely come back again to try more of the menu!

If you are looking to host a small gathering with friends and family, look no further. We hosted our baby shower at the Milton this past June and I cannot express enough how helpful Paul the manager and the staff at the Milton were. Paul gave us ideas on layout and flow for the party, he was amazing! The staff were super friendly to our guests and efficient. The food and service was excellent. Even though our party was a short 3 hours, we did it this way so that people that came from far with kids can go home at a decent time. Once our time-frame was over, we stayed at the bar with the few friends that stayed after. Everyone had a great time! Thank you Paul and his staff for such an amazing event! :)
