Are you a Seahawks fan/lover/player/ or just want to see what the 12th man is all about? COME here, the crowd, the people, the energy is insane. I took a niners fan on Sunday for the last half of the game and he was DEFINTLY amazed that we had fans all the way in NYC. I think he had fun.
We didn't drink because it was soooo packed.
They don't have any food, but for the games they do have some catering, not always lots left, but its in the far back of the room.
I use to live out this way and go every Friday if I could and it was always a great time. I would come early and get a spot hang out with people from Seattle, just moved here, or just hear a great story or two.
I haven't been back in a while, but glad I came by to see my people.
Its a good-enough place to go to whenever you're in the neighborhood. It has a pool table, drink prices are reasonable and people seem to be nice. Check it out if you're nearby, if not, you're not missing out on anything.
For a place that has no kitchen (read: no food), no coffee (read: no "adult" coffee drinks, like Nutty Irishman or Mexican coffee), or no champagne (no mimosas or Bellinis), I cannot wait to get back to this place. It's basically a bar and a pool table. I think I saw a video game in the back.
Alas, this is a place that I will only stop at during football season. My husband always thought he was one in a million of Seattle Seahawks fans on the island of Manhattan, let alone all five boros or the tri-state area. But he read about this place and finally found a reason to visit — a Seahawks game day. Though I am a Jets fan, I went with him…what the hell. We went in knowing that all this stuff was working against them…but Sundays they bring in a buffet (standard pasta, wings, salad, etc) and at same time are very chill about bringing in food of your own (we ordered from a local diner)…and though I couldn't get a mimosa or an adult coffee, the bartender was cool enough to suggest that if I went up the street for a regular coffee, he'd be happy to "nutty it up" for me, as he put it. Sweet. Ness.
Anyway, I was an outsider, looking in, but this place is the shizzle for Seahawks fans on game days. Many of their games are not locally broadcast, so it's a haven for transplants and their fans. There was even a couple from Canada who are big 'Hawks fans. After each touchdown, they give you a complimentary Seahawk-blue Kamikaze shot. Damn, wish I was a Seahawks fan but they gave me the shots anyway. It was a high scoring game…so we got pretty drunk.
I don't live on the UES, and to get there is like taking a trip to Guam where I need to stamp my passport, go through customs and declare my items. So this is a once in a blue moon place (no pun intended, for blue moons on Seahawk game days). But I had so much fun, as an outsider, that I can't wait for football season to start again. The Jets may break my heart, but I can secretly be impartial for a Seahawks game, while watching everyone around me have a blast at this place. Don't miss it.
I was frankly surprised to find a legit Irish bar on the Upper East Side. The reviews are true: feisty regulars, no-nonsense bartenders, a simple menu of beer and mixed drinks, Creedence on the stereo. It's a clean space with a pool table. Nothing more to it!
Drinking on Museum Mile is not a simple task. Most local establishments are bistros with cocktail programs and rooftop views. On a warm June afternoon, however, sometimes you just need to escape the humidity with a cold pint of Guinness or Brooklyn Lager.
Judging from the crowd, Carlow East is a great place for regulars to socialize. Most of the patrons seemed to know each other and the bartender. If you order a few rounds, it's also not unusual to receive an occasional buyback. Just don't embarrass yourself by ordering cocktails with milk or exotic fruit!
I'm a die hard Chargers fan and I've been known to waive the 49er Freak Flag on occasion as well… but just because I'm not a fan of a particular team doesn't mean I can't enjoy watching 'em knock each other silly on Thursdays, Sundays, and Mondays. That said, when a friend from Seattle suggested we check out the Green Bay/Seattle game last night (that last play – WTF?!?!), it was a no-brainer.
Fans of the Seahawks get crazy here. It's loud and boisterous to the point where you totally forget how ugly their jerseys are as they scream up and down the 100 yard field. It's how every sports bar should be, really.
Can't wait to check out another game ASAP!
Never coming back to this bar ever again. From the feedback I got about this place that night… Supposedly the bartender was attempting to communicate with me while I was on the phone and he assumed that I videotaped him which wasn't the case… I was actually watching videos on my device while my friend had gone to pick up a phone call which conveniently was telling colleagues to come to Carlows East… All of a sudden my friend gets into a confrontation with the bartender and at this point, I didn't know about what it was in regards to… He kicked us out… And I was frankly confused since I even asked the bartender how much I owed.. People are way too sensitive with the devices nowadays.. And for the record, get over yourselves. I wasn't recording you but I'm glad you reacted as prematurely as you guys did… My advice speak to me directly and get my attention when asking me if I'm videoing you. Hope this review helps. Yes, This was the first time ever getting kicked out of a bar and assumed it was the race gig due to the vast confusion when leaving. I don't have many low ranked reviews on bars but this is unfortunately my first… Btw, one of their bartenders actually messaging me stating it is solely an Irish bar which is fine. Don't worry, it's New York, there's other bars to go to. My mistake for going to yours.
My recommendation would be to skip out on going to this bar, and head to another one across the street that won't cause too much distress over petty BS.
This is a fine, unpretentious bar offering good bartender service. Some of the reviewers have labeled this a "dive bar," but I didn't think this clean, low-key place is a dive bar. It's really more of a sports bar/corner tap. You won't come here for upscale cocktails or great music, but if you want to enjoy a beer, play some pool or watch sports, this is a comfortable and clean place to do it.
LET'S GO HAWKS!!…Seahawks that is.
After being converted to a Seahawks fan three years ago, I really eager to visit this hub that my native Seattle friends have been talking about.
This place is full of the most diehard, heckling group of fans I have ever met. And that is saying a lot, since I grew up in a time that the NYY and NYM rivalry was real.
Everyone from here, from the barstaff to the patrons are super friendly. There is no kitchen but you are allowed to bring in your own food.
If you are coming here for a game come early! Like when the bar opens. There will be no seats 2 hours before the game starts.
It is a comfortable space even in the standing section (entire bar)
I will be back!!!
