About Peter Dillon’s Pub
Peter Dillon’s Pub sits at 130 E 40th St, a neighborhood Irish pub steps from Grand Central with a pool table, sports on TV, and a famously long day — open from 11am to 4am. There’s no kitchen; the draw is cheap drinks and a low-key room. At 4.4 stars across 1,000-plus reviews, it’s a reliable commuter-and-regulars bar.
The Happy Hour in Detail
The happy hour is the whole pitch: all day, all week, select shots for $4 and select pints for $6. The official site bills it as ‘Happy Hour All Day, All Week,’ and the late 4am close means it holds up well after dinner too. (Some third-party listings cite a narrower 4–7pm window, but the venue’s own site is the authority here — confirm at the bar if it matters.)
What to Order
It’s a pints-and-shots room — select pint for $6, select shot for $4, rack the pool table. There’s no food, so eat first and come here to drink.
The Space & Vibe
Classic dive-leaning Irish pub: pool table, TVs, worn-in regulars, and zero pretense. A drinking bar, not a dinner spot.
The Murray Hill Angle
You’re a block from Grand Central on 40th, which makes this the obvious pre-train or post-work pint for the commuter crowd — and one of the cheaper rounds in Murray Hill’s northern edge.
