Queen Vic
“The Queen Vic an incredibly chill spot, with a super friendly bar tender, great happy hour and decent music.”
“Every time an alcoholic finds a bar in New York with $4 well drinks, an angel gets its wings, which it uses to fly to the nearest hospital to request a liver transplant.”
“It has a similar relaxed atmosphere and crowd, although with a few more ladies than are typically at Boiler Room.”

Cute, inviting ambiance. Reminds me of my grandma's if it was lit only by candles. Great people-watching corner! Friendly bartender.
Stopped in last night because I noticed a sign out front for $4 liquor. A-okay by me! A gin & tonic and whiskey sour later, Liz was definitely feeling the friendly vibe happening here.
Super nice bartender, and all of the customers seemed sweet. Too bad the kitchen is closed, because the pub food looks absolutely delicious and terrible for me.
The Queen Vic is a nice little lady!
I came here just to hang out with some friends on a Friday night and found the vibe to be really nice for a Friday night. It wasn't too rowdy, the music was loud enough to enjoy but not so loud that I couldn't talk with my friends. If you go to 13th step or any other college bar everyone is so loud that everything basically devolves into a shouting match, but not here (in exchange you get cheap drinks!). Drinks are a bit expensive at $5.50 for a summer ale, but that's to be expected at a bar. Overall just a good place to kick back and talk with some friends.
This bar is alright. It's just a standard bar. It isn't over priced and it has your standard liquors, ask for something a little different and they probably won't have it though. It's not super crowded ever either, at least any of the times that I have been here. Overall I like this bar, but I like other bars more.
Stopped in in a Friday night around 9 and the bar was pretty empty. I guess they served food once upon a time but not anymore. They didn't have any issues with us ordering in. PBRs were $3 and most the drafts were $6.50. They didn't have a particularly amazing draft list or really anything worth mentioning. If you're looking for somewhere relatively quiet that you can go with a decent sized group Queen Vic would work. Not much to say otherwise.
Dive city in the best way. If… a friendly 'tender, plenty of seats, great people watching from the large front and side windows, a seemingly never ending happy hour, solid soundtrack, interesting decor… are your things, then come on down! The kitchen is closed (I'm pretty sure) at the moment and you can bring food in from the surrounding areas. I popped into the bean and grabbed a coffee which they happily spiked with jameson. Got a $20? Looking to slam back a few. Do it.
What a find. After passing countless bars on 2nd Ave that looked either far too pretentious or far too bro'd out, Queen Vic's sign promised a haven of $4 well drinks and cheap beer.
They delivered more than that. Drinks are not watered down at all. Bartenders are happy to chat with you and will juggle bottles for you. Plenty of seating, including the world's comfiest couches, clean bathrooms, late-night food, the works.
Oh, and it's gay friendly since The Boiler Room is next door. Faaabulous!
Cool bar. $4 well drinks and $3 PBR cans at all times of the night. Get drunk with 40 bucks, awesome!
It's never too crowded, but never too empty. There's a couch, a few TV's, an ATM, some books. Overall it's an affordable, chill vibe.
A big shoutout to my bartender, Oliver, for being super sweet and talkative! I love when bartenders treat their customers like humans and not dollar signs. He adds to the chill vibe.
I took off a star because it isn't the cleanest bar, and it smelled really bad (like fish), but it is NYC. If it wasn't for the bartender, the rating would be a lot lower. See what good customer service can do?
Cozy and casual. Gin and tonics are only $4 each?! What is this…check in and get an offer!
