Dead Rabbit Reviews

Great little place. Very popular, it seems, so very crowded.

My favorite bar. Great vibs and they make every know drink well or die trying. They had a fire but it's back! It's Irish but you can get one of those foamy daiquies or classic highball. Also, and this is important, you can get a scotch egg here. Marvelous. I love it upstairs.

My fiance and I visted New York at the beginning of June. A local bartender from Omaha suggested we visit this bar because the drinks were good. When we went it was better than we expected, the atmosphere was wonderful, bartender (Kaitlyn) was so nice, and the drinks/food were amazing! I would definitely recommend this place and we cant wait to come back. Also BEST irish coffee's we have ever had.

Upscale upstairs and more casual feel downstairs. Authentic and great blend of modern Irish pub and a traditional turn of the century historic Irish landmark! Only disappointment is they play classic rock....why would they do that in an Irish pub?

Best bar experience in New York I've had. Live Irish music, cozy atmosphere and great variety of drinks.

Absolutely amazing cocktails! I visited on a Monday night and they were absolutely slammed. Glad I waited though! I've already recommended The Dead Rabbit to all of my friends!

Drunks, service and decor are outstanding. Food could be better. Disappointed that their version of Welsh Rarebit is essentially cheese toast. But will I return? Absolutely!

There is a reason why this bar is recommended by almost all of the locals. The interior is nice but no air conditioning on a really sweltering summer day in the city. Only saving grace is the fantastic cold concoctions that the expert bartenders mix up. My husband really loved his old fashioned and I enjoyed the gimlet. The lobster deviled eggs were fantastic... order them... you won't be disappointed. (Unless you hate lobster or eggs)

The best part of our experience was the Irish coffee that the bartender offered to make us complementary. I don't drink coffee.. never have... but this was out of this world delicious. I absolutely loved it. They totally converted me to loving coffee... well only if there is liquor in it. ;)

There services are excellent.Plus the food was delicious

Stopped for lunch, amazing corned beef and Home made soup, a little pricey but generous portions and great service

Amazing drinks, knowledgable bartenders who can recommend cocktails that suits your taste. Food is also really good. The shepherd pie was delicious! I would definitively go back.

If you come in expecting a loud, cramped irish pub full of character and whiskey, you're in the right place. The pints are reasonable($8-9) for the area and the beer/whiskey selection is impressive. There's a small but clean unisex bathroom in the back. Great for a visit and a few drinks, but not a great place for groups or long visits.

I really enjoyed it and look forward to my next visit, but I wouldn't recommend it for a group of more than 4, or any other meal but a late lunch

the best beet i ever had is here ! i wish i had 1000 stars for this bar!

Got there around 4pm. No smiles from any employee. I thought one bartender was rude. Then I met another bartender and barback. Both were short and unresponsive with answering questions. The drink was good but hospitality was a 1/10. Actively telling people about my bad experience.

Awesome Irish coffee! The burger was pretty awesome as well.

There seems to be different menus for the downstairs vs upstairs. We actually didn't even make it upstairs. The drinks are excellent, and are quite strong. :)

The waiting time that was given was far from the actual time we got a table. By then 2 of 6 left. And when we told them that they said we have to wait longer... we left, of course. The criteria and taking care of you costumers has to prevail. It doesn't matter the scale of the place.

This off-the-beaten-path bar reminds me of a speakeasy from the early 1900's. Decorated with old black and white photos, sawdust covered floors and a vibe reminiscent of an old-time tavern, the downstairs taproom is perfect for unwinding with a pint of Guinness. Upstairs, however, is where the real magic happens in my opinion. Though you might wait until space allows, the cocktail lounge, or parlor, that resides on the 2nd floor is where you might have imagine the "upper classes" to have wined and dined. The cocktail menu and selection is impeccable and the staff certainly knows how to create a palette pleasing drink that can suit a variety of consumers. I didn't have the chance to try their food menu but from the looks of it, it seemed to be on par with the cocktails. A lovely place to take friends or visitors for a special occasion, I highly recommend hitting this spot up if you happen to be in the area.

There's a reason this is considered the best bar in the world. Each floor is its own experience, 3rd floor has some clever cocktails that are great to drink when waiting to get into the second floor. The second floor is absolutely incredible, worth whatever wait it takes to get in.

Lively and crowded but is located upstairs to eat and eat very well at acceptable prices.

It is full of people since six in the afternoon. It is to stand or arrive early.

Quality cocktails and good food. Place on the 2nd floor is awesome

A fantastic experience for their cocktail lounge, however, it depends on your preferences for a cocktail. Dead Rabbit enjoys their success on well balanced cocktails, however, for me, I like more spirit forward drinks. There's more wild and inventive cocktails elsewhere in the city.

My cocktail (Perfect Lady Royale) was absolutely delicious. I also ate the lamb stew, which was very flavorful and filling. Lastly, the Irish coffee was superb. Atmosphere was lively and pleasant, not too loud to have a conversation. We only visited the downstairs portion and would definitely recommend it. Their many awards for cocktails are clearly well deserved!

Happy to meet that legendary bar. And I tried the best Old Fashion in the world, in a special place. The whiskey menu is awesome! Simply unmissable

Due to time we did not fully experience the richness this bar had to offer. You can see why it received its 5 star rating in 2016. Voted best pub. Great array of drinks and especially Irish whiskey. Prices for food looked quite expensive however the whiskey taster was good value. Worth a visit as we have not experienced a better bar as of yet.

Loved this place. Food fab, drinks fab as was the service. A must visit and will definitely return

Tasty cocktails and a cozy scene, the burger and fries were good.

Absolutely the best drinks and THE BEST Irish coffee. Gotta visit here before you die

One of the best cocktail bar! Friendly staff. Love that place

A small, very cozy little bar in the Financial District of Manhattan. Not a typical tourist destination, here the New Yorkers go to talk and really drink good cocktails. Unlike other bars in Manhattan, alcohol can not be saved here. The service is very friendly and attentive. Even spilled drinks will be replaced free of charge. Truly a place that every New York visitor should have seen at least once.

Impeccable service informal atmosphere great beer and try the Dead Rabbit hamburger.

Best cocktails in Manhattan hands down! Always interesting and such a great Atmos. Love this place.

This place is absolutely amazing. Some of the best cocktails I have had in my life. I've been multiple times and will go back anytime

It's at the top of every "best bar" list for a reason. Magical!

Great name. And a bar, not a grocery store. Closed a little early as I recall, for NYC. But I would try it again.

The best bar in the world. The cocktails are a perfect balance between craft, taste and inventive.

It didn't live up to the hype. While I enjoyed my cocktail, I just wasn't blown away by either the selection or the creativity. It has a great atmosphere though. My partner thoroughly enjoyed her martini.

Amazing bar, amazing food, everything was basically perfect...

Very colorful bar. Wandered by accident and did not regret it. The most memorable bar in life.

Good music. Descent drinks. Biggest issue here is they have sawdust on the floor which combined with drink spills, makes the floor slippery and an accident waiting to happen especially for women in heels.

The drinks are pricey yet delicious . As they say, you get what you pay for

They do everything right at the Dead Rabbit. Went there for my wife's 50th birthday and we were not disappointed. Cocktails were great and the service professional and polite. We will come back when we get to NYC next time.

Best bar in Manhattan. The bartenders must have a PhD in making cocktails. Pretty good food. $1 oyster happy hour. Creative menus. Excellent date spot. Love it.

Amazing place! great food and the atmosphere was so cool. We would definitely come back, especially for the Irish coffee.

A must stop in bar in the FiDi, a favorite of locals and attracts a young NYC crowd every night of the week. Be prepared for a crowd, and keep an eye out for a table as they do not take reservations. On weekends you can enjoy some of the best specialty drinks on the second floor, which are amazing, but regular bar service is only available on the first floor. The food is incredible, get the lamb Shepard's pie and the Irish bread basket. Fish and chips has a strange flavor in the breading. Bar and table service is excellent.

One of the best cocktail bars in the city. There is often a wait and it's better to come in small groups. The truffle chips are great too.

Food and service were great, thoroughly recommend for anyone visiting New York.

We had a great time at The dead rabbit. We. Hope to come back soon.
Jack was a gentleman and took care of us!!

Came here for my birthday after many, MANY recommendations from bartender friends. Despite the hour wait for a table in the Parlour upstairs, it was well worth it. Perfect atmosphere, great staff and above all, great cocktails. Even if you find the menu (yes, it's a book!) a little daunting, the staff can usually recommend you something depending on what you feel like. An absolute must for denizens on New York and visitors from afar if you enjoy a fun, relaxed environment to sip down a few well-crafted drinks with friends or alone and just enjoy life.

Cozy vibe, friendly bartenders and awesome drink and food options. Whiskey lovers paradise right in downtown Manhattan!

Best irish coffee ever. I loved the Irish Charm of the place.

Great bar, amazing cocktails, awesome great taste of good and variety

Best cocktails I've ever had. Get the Prince of Darkness!!

Truly the best bar. I love going here so much anytime I am in the city. If you go during the day it is less crowded and feels like you are in Ireland. Their truffle fries are AMAZING and their lobster deviled eggs are also so great....of course the cocktails are the best.

It was my first time stopping in here and it was such a great place. Cozy and comfy feel, super friendly staff, tasty drinks and delish food. Def a recommend if your in the area!

Fantastic pub with authentic saw dust on the floor.
They have a good selection of local and imported beers and amazing cocktails.
Be sure to speak to bartenders or ask if you are unsure what to get, as they are super knowledgeable and interesting. They can even tell you all about the history of this pub.

Highly recommended! Awesome choice of Irish and Scottish whiskeys. Very kind staff that was able to fit our 12 people party. Bigger numbers cannot fit. Prices for Wal street people :-(

Nice and cosy American-Irish cocktail bar serving some great food options and drinks. It gets busy with the local crowds in the evenings but worth a visit if you re in the Battery Park area. Quite an extensive menu for food and for drinks, with signature cocktails, local brews, and creative culinary combos.

Great cocktails though downstairs area is very cramped

Dirty floors, not a class establishment. Dollars on the roof kinda bar.

Excellent place without a doubt an iconic place in New York for all tourists and citizens the drinks are of another level and their mythology has made them the best bar in the world I recommend trying the hamburger

An incredible, fun spot for big or small groups. Amazing drinks and food. An atmosphere that will enhance your experience. Great music. A fun night for anyone who goes here.

Very cool bar... Recommend going to the 3rd floor, The Parlor. Interesting theme if you are into comics

The parlor is such a cool place! They had alcohol samples in tea cups and comic book menus! One of my friend read the whole comic and said it was just ok, not worth buying for $6.

Besides the sample punch, all the other cocktails were just mediocre. Nothing too memorable. Food and service on the other hand are worth coming back for. I will have food and beer next time!

We arrived at 5pm on the dot when they opened and was supposedly lucky to have gotten a seat at the parlor. I've heard that it is usually packed and hard to get in.

Dead Rabbit is one of the best cocktail spots in NYC.
