Happy Hour at Hurley’s Saloon
Hurley’s Saloon is one of the oldest bars in New York, a three-floor Irish pub and sports bar wedged into the tourist churn of the Theater District on West 48th between Broadway and 8th Avenue. Wall-to-wall HD TVs, a big ground-floor bar, upstairs seating and an AstroTurf rooftop make it a reliable after-work and game-day landing spot, with one of the better Guinness pours in Midtown.
The kitchen turns out no-frills Irish pub fare with an American streak, from burgers to filet mignon, plus a pre-theater prix fixe for the Broadway crowd. It’s an unpretentious slice of old-school New York in a stretch of the city that has mostly gone glossy and corporate.
