Cold beer, good food, friendly service and lots of TV screens are what makes up a great sports bar. Yard House in Times Square hits the mark on all counts.
On the ground floor is a sprawling bar with more than 130 beers on tap. Picking one can be a daunting challenge, but our bartender was helpful in narrowing it down from name brands, to hard-to-find varieties to house brews. We settled on a house Pilsner which was quite refreshing. Beers come in two sizes; pints and 23-ounce towers that stand about a foot and a half tall.
The space is attractive with ample seating for small and large groups as well as cushioned booths. A smaller bar can also be found on the second floor.
The menu also boasts more than 100 items ranging from bar snacks and wings to prime burgers, beer-battered fish and chips, street tacos, salads, steaks and more. Prices to be quite affordable with a 1/2 LB cheddar burger weighing in at under 14 bucks with crispy fries.
Yard House is intent on making you feel comfortable whether you’re alone looking for a bite at the bar, or joining a large group after work. Think of it as an over-sized Cheers!
Yard House is located at 1441 Broadway, New York, NY (646) 434-2448
