Well let's first say if you check in you get a free shot. So be mindful of that and check in!
I love this bar, it's totally a chill bar that you can come to for Happy Hour or on a weekend afternoon to toss a few back and mingle. They have a great HH special that lasts well past happy hour.
They have some tables you can sit down and enjoy your cocktail or beer. Also some outdoor seating for people watching on Greenwich 😉 it always makes for an interesting afternoon.
I've never eaten here but I am sure some people do
🙂
If you are looking for a major scene, this is not the place for you ! But if you are looking to have fun with your friends and relax in the village check this place out 🙂
Oh and there can definitely be a crowd here sometimes so be mindful 🙂
great bar for going out on a friday or saturday night. there are several different sections and bars you can hang out making it fun and interesting, and it is always filled with people
Went late on a Friday night…
Atmosphere: Crowded! But not a rowdy crowd. They had a pool table which is what we came for and it was an open table when we got there, which was fantastic. There were a group of people who wanted to play pool, but ended up just taking seductive photos ON the pool table? Needless to say, they kindly gave us back the table as I think they were a bit too tipsy to play.
Drinks: Normal bar drinks, but they did have a drink with St. Germain and Elderflower, and any drink with those two guys and you had me at hello. Plus a champagne base? Happy, happy Friday night girl.
Food: My friend ordered fries which were surprisingly very good on my fry scale rating.
Overall: Good for afterhours chill night.
Fiddlesticks is a popular after work destination for my office. We are located in Jersey City, so with it being a short walk from the 9th street path stop we always seem to find ourselves here.
It's what you would expect, kind of divey with a pool table in the back, stick floors if you stay to long, and tables for people who want to sit in the back and enjoy the crowd. I personally like it here, it's low key and we always have a good time. Plus, they have good spinach & artichoke dip which i always find myself ordering after 4+ beers. A good after work location but it does get super crowded as the night goes on, so get there early for a spot at the bar!
This place was your average bar, pretty big and gets packed with a younger crowd. If you're looking for a place to dance in the area, it's a decent place to come.
Would have given it three stars instead of two, but the rude bartenders knocked down their rating. They have a free house shot check in deal for Yelp, but the two bartenders my friend and I asked were very unwelcoming about it and acted like it wasn't a thing, adding a comment about tipping them if we got it, even though my friend purchased another drink along with it. Don't have a deal if you're not going to honor it! We got the shots, but probably won't be coming back.
As I walk up Greenwich, I dial up my yelp app to checkin at Fiddlesticks. And what do I find but they offer a FREE SHOT just for checkins. It's lucky I don't do shots. 🙂 But for those who do, get your checking in going!
Meanwhile I ambled up to the bar & spied the taps. I ordered myself a blue moon & headed to the back for the meetup group. Good times were had by all!
Extremely disappointed with fiddlesticks because of the service. The bartenders were so extremely rude. One drunk bartender commented on a blemish on my face before serving me my drink. Are you kidding me ? They offer a free shot when you checkin on Yelp but none of the bartenders recognized this deal and were not friendly to provide the shot.
The atmosphere was fun, with a young crowd and good top 40 music. But the service was so unwelcoming I don't know if I would return.
Okay so I used to come here for cheap drinks on random nights but… Cheap no more… AND the menu said "nacho with the works" but you have to pay $3 for guac. Who doesn't serve nachos with guac????? Especially "nachos with the works," Oh and the "side of guac?" it's about a tablespoon! no joke it comes in one of those tiny metal condiment bowl/dish things you would normally get ketchup in. literally a tablespoon. The nachos tasted okay, chips were a little stale but everything else tasted good even the $3 tablespoon of guac but sooooooo NOT worth it. Too many better options in the area with wayyyyyyyy better food for cheaper. Drinks were okay ranged from $8-12 so pretty average and service was friendly but sparse even though it didn't seem very busy.
