This is one of Manhattans most affordable yet enjoyable bars. The drink prices are fantastic, making it a great value. Boxing enthusiasts will love the collection of photos showcasing legendary fighters. It tends to get packed on weekends, so arriving early—around 8 p.m.—is recommended if you want a table. The staff is welcoming and pleasant, and the bar is conveniently located within walking distance of Times Square. -

This is the ABSOLUTE best dive bar near Times Square.The place stays slammed because the prices are amazing. Where else can you get a beer for $3-4 in Midtown?I was surprised to meet so many locals considering the location.The bartenders were also very nice despite how busy they were. -

If you are looking for a cool dive bar in Times Square, check out Jimmys Corner. It is a small bar with lots of boxing memorabilia. My son and I had two drinks, and it was very inexpensive. -

Favorite spot for an authentic dive bar still alive in NYC (Manhattan)!! Not just the vibe but the history of the place and the people here. Amazing spot for legit old school Newyorkers. Don’t be surprised if you run into jazz musicians and Broadway performers after their shows. -

Great Bar it was down the street from the hotel I was staying at so I wanted to check it out and was happily surprised with the old school boxing theme. It was my first time there, so just so you know whatever you do do not ring the boxing bell on the wall in the corner seat by the entrance It is sacred to them I was told its from Madison square garden. Since It was my first time there I got a pass, next time im in NYC I wont even look at it, lol. Great place And I think the gentleman who was bartending let the bell incident slide is the original owners grandson. I definitely recommend. -

One of the cheapest bar in Manhattan, but its good too. Drinks are nice according to the price. If you are a boxing fan then you have to visit this place. A lot of pictures of boxing legends. Its pretty crowded on weekends so if you want a table then you need to get here early. Around 8 for a table i guess. Staff is friendly and nice. Walking distance from times square. -

4$ the corona (and other) is cheap price compared to other bars. Small bar and not much space but once inside its a no brainer! To try for broken people like me who visit time square -

One of the last gin mills in New York City. Come for the cheap drinks, stay for the atmosphere and jukebox. I’ve been coming here since 2006 when Jimmy and Swannie ran the place and now It’s run just as competently and well by their family. Honestly don’t come. This bar is for me and I want success for them but more importantly I want a stool near the jukebox. -

A must-see for boxing fans visiting New York. This historic venue, founded by the famous African-American boxer and trainer Jimmy Glenn, is a genuine tavern where you rarely meet tourists. Here you can feel history and passion in every corner. -

Hard to beat this classic anywhere in NYC. Old school NYC vibe , been here for over 50 years . Always a smiling face behind the bar . Can’t beat a 3.50 cent vodka crab , or two cosmos and two beers for 17.00. Hope this place doesn’t go anywhere as it’s charm is boxing themed and one of a kind . -

The definition of a dive bar.. places like this are a dying breed so absolutely drop by for a Yuengling at this Times Square classic.Originally owned by a famous amateur boxer/ well known trainer across the industry. Use to spar with Ali, I believe his son is running it now and hasn’t changed a thing.. the history on the walls says it all! -

Found this online with Google Maps, visited recently during our trip to NYC. What a gem in the middle of the Times Square area.Mike the bartender was great. Cold beers at great prices. It is a hangout for locals that know what a local bar should be.Shoot out to people we met - Jimmy (courier) and from Ireland Emma & Joe -

A great lil bar right near Times Square, with some fun staff and interesting regulars to talk to! Was actually the best part to my 16 hour New York trip, made me feel like I was at my home bar in Dallas, TX! Cant wait to come back to NY and sit at the bar here again! -

Small, cozy and cheap bar in the heart of Manhattan. I drunk there IPA for 4.5 dollars and I was really happy with taste - but of course for me. If you like boxing and history YOU MUST GO THERE. Plenty of old photos on the walls and old posters. Location its another plus. -

3 drinks for under ten bucks just off Times Square?Its the ultimate NYC dive bar.Small, friendly (once you coo onto yourself) and surprisingly filled with regulars, its a rough lump of coal in a sea of polished diamonds and I love that about it.Dont bring a backpack, its a tight squeeze getting in and out as it is. -

I cant rate the food as we didnt eat here, but I was searching for good cocktails and this place showed up. At 1st glance my mom was like hell no Im not going in there, but I was like sometimes the whole in the walls are the best places so I walked in making her follow and happy I did. Service was amazing, drinks were so cheap. 4.50/drink for time square!! Unreal!! Patrons were friendly and it was good vibes. I would definitely come back -

I still think about my Jimmys experience when I was last in New York. This place is one of the safest, kindest and entertaining spaces Ive ever been to. Shout-out to all the amazing bar staff and all the amazing people we met there! Only time Ive ever been at a bar and stayed for 5hrs+. Also cant beat the cheap prices! So much heart and soul in this place and I cant recommend it enough. -

Jimmys Corner is...by far, the best bar in Manhattan by a country mile. Authentic, old school experience of New York. Me and my wife went here on our 10th wedding anniversary when on holiday from Scotland. The locals and bar staff were so welcoming, we stayed for hours, and if we werent going home the next day wouldve been back every day of our holiday. Thanks for the hospitality...and the memories. Definitely a must if you go to Manhattan.🥊 -

This bar was on our must-visit list during our stay in NY. We passed by several times, but it was always packed! Finally, we decided to try our luck one afternoon and managed to squeeze in—it’s tiny but absolutely fantastic! The authentic bar, filled with boxing memorabilia, was exactly what we had hoped for. The bartender was incredibly friendly, and we were shocked (in the best way) when our two large beers cost only $7! It’s an absolute must-visit—if you can find a spot! -
Review 38 (2022-04-24 - Rating: 5)
Found a true jewel Jimmy was Ali’s comer man and this place is a classic dive bar with a wall full of classic photos I can spend all day and night admiring the history. The bar tenders and laid back cool and cute. The vibes is relaxed with a juke box playing the tunes that make you miss ya momma and granny. I was at a marvelous roof top a block away but the line for a drink was too much of a wait I bought a round for @ Jimmys for 5 for the price of 1 drink at the roof top. I’ll never come to times SQ again and not come by. If you looking for fancy and not comfy in a soulful, culturally rich space this isn’t for you but if Your a fan of boxing history, home grown vibe and love this is your place. -

Fantastic place - inexplicably cheap beers just off Times Square (literally turn the corner and you can get two pints for $7). Great service and lots of cool memorabilia including autographs and a bell from Madison Square Garden! -

You really have to have the appropriate expectations when you come here. We were looking for cheap drinks before a show and really this is exactly what this place delivered.We ended up getting four drinks that came to a total of $22, which was truly astounding to me when I saw the bill. The drinks are really no frills: well drinks, simple drinks, beers on tap. The bartender is super friendly and you can make the seating what you want. The decor really commits to the theme of boxing with boxing paraphernalia adorning every inch of the place. Its small and super unassuming and I was really surprised to find it in such a high-traffic Broadway area. -

This review is not just about Jimmys bc everyone whos been there knows how special this place is.. I want to address what Diana O. has said below as this is a defamatory false narrative that was absolutely not the case of what happened- we absolutely support women, in fact going out of our way to ensure safety when needed, just as I did last night with this patron, leaving the bar where I was working to come outside and see if she was a tourist that needed help getting a car, or a New Yorker who was perfectly capable of getting themselves home in an Uber (it was the latter). I also ensured safety from the jump by not serving someone who came into the bar clearly over served from another establishment. If someone is too intoxicated, has fallen to the ground & then into various patrons, it becomes dangerous and is fully within our right to deny service or re-entry into the bar. The GF in question also came outside after I did & then chose to come back in, knowing her friend could not come back as well.. We did everything we could (and more than most would) to try to support this person while keeping the rest of our patrons safe too. So please, fellow friends & Google review readers- do not believe that Jimmys Corner does not support women bc we absolutely do & will have your back even when you dont think you need it ✌️ -

Black owned bar near Times Square! Its tiny but mighty. The drinks are inexpensive for Manhattan’s standards, well worth being packed in tightly. If you are one of those people that don’t like people scooting past you, this isn’t the place for you! They make the best tequila sunrises 🫶🏾 -

Jimmys is a DIVE with the nicest staff and patrons. Fabulous pints for only $3! Dont let the prices fool you. Jimmys clearly cares for their beer system and serves a clean crisp pint. Jimmys is a nice change in this city full flat greasy overpriced beers served by corporate pubs that never clean their beer lines. Despite the dust on the décor, Jimmys has an A rating - all the surfaces and glasses are very clean. -

Jimmys Corner on West 44th Street in New York, NY, is a true gem that I stumbled upon after a memorable concert at Madison Square Garden. It turned out to be an unexpected highlight of the night.The moment I walked in, I was transported to a classic New York dive bar, complete with walls adorned with boxing memorabilia and the warm hum of chatter from locals and visitors alike. The ambiance exudes authenticity, a welcome contrast to the flashy lights of Times Square nearby.What sets Jimmys Corner apart, besides its nostalgic charm, is the remarkable selection of drinks at affordable prices. The bartenders here are seasoned pros, mixing up cocktails with precision and serving a variety of beers that cater to all tastes.The place has an unpretentious vibe that instantly puts you at ease. Its a spot where you can strike up a conversation with strangers or simply enjoy your drink in peace.Jimmys Corner is a testament to the enduring spirit of old New York, and its the kind of place that becomes a cherished memory. Whether youre winding down after a show at MSG or simply looking for an authentic New York experience, this hidden gem is a must-visit. Its a reminder that in a city of constant change, some places remain timeless. -

Cheap cheap cheap!!! I love drinking good and tipping better! Let’s talk about it!It’s not that the city doesn’t sleep, it’s the you. N I know where you can find the best espresso martini in town.If you’re looking for some rest and reprieve in the middle of Times Square you have to come and see Mike at Jimmy’s Corner.There’s an ambiance of old school boxing and new school cocktails that’s feeds anybody. Ask your bartender questions about jimmy, the manager owner. That man is tendered on his craft and space. Mixed crowd. It’s the professionalism of your bartender(mike, every night all the time. Work baby!!! bring it home to me! Lol!) he’s seriously really handsome so back off…..In addition to that— it’s the way that he makes sure that he can curate the cocktail that you might like even if you don’t think he has what you need. Read that again.I had a couple of espresso martinis. A splash of some rum. Idk. My heart full n the drinks were cheaper than that horrid Applebee’s.. stop for a hotdog and then go to Jimmy’s. Eff it. Indulge the spirits you can’t feed your gullet. Read that again.My heart is full. I think I’m in love but I could just have an excellent buzz at a great rate. Who drives in New York City? Go up mike!I will definitely be back and I will definitely refer this place—specifically Mike—to anybody that I know.When you feel like everybody can do a job you lose the sense of professionalism in it. Napkin under ur cocktail. Preferences on vodka. If you want a professional bartender you come to see Mike.Ask about the whiskey sour—the Jameson is super cheap.Mike… we’re a couple now I’ll see you at the house. Take the transit to Atlanta Georgia and meet me in the city. I got love for you babe. -

We went to this particular bar as we check off the NYC “Bars, Taverns and Dives” described in a great book we received as a gift. Jimmy’s Corner was accurately described as a dive bar. It does live up to what you might think of as a dive and then some!! No food is served and if you are lucky and get a seat at the bar you will be served quickly and an expense not found in 2024 anywhere else. Just to be clear we ordered two craft beer pints and got change back. Hard to explain the atmosphere you will need to go and experience this old New York scene’ -

Managed to squeeze in - its tiny - but fabulous! Authentic bar, just as wed hoped packed full of boxing memorabilia.

Jimmys Corner is a true gem just off of Times Square and I hope its character never changes!We were in the City for a day during December 2023 and as we were walking around we stumbled upon the bar and my fiancée said how her dad used to frequent the bar in his younger days so we said why dont we take a load off and have a drink!The Staff:Sadly Jimmy Glenn passed away in 2020 but he has certainly left a lasting legacy here.The bar staff are very friendly, attentive and competent, Jimmy trained them well.Layout:It is a long narrow New York City bar with plenty of seating along the bar. At the back of the bar it widens a little and there are a few tables at either side here.Decor:The bar is decorated with memorabilia from Jimmys time here along with his past involvement with boxing.The bar area is covered with pictures of people having a good time here along with Jimmy himself and as you make your way through the bar you with see the boxing influence with vintage posters from boxing history.Jimmy had a love for boxing and you can also see him pictured with greats such as Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson!There are a number of tvs but thankfully the bar is not over powered by them. I feel that this is the sort of bar where people come for conversation rather than to watch tv!Overall Opinion:Jimmys Corner is a classic old school New Yord City bar. You get the sense that time moves a little slower here while the busy city keeps on moving on outside!Its the perfect bar for a daytime beer and the prices are so cheap, the time we hit it the beers were $3 or $4 something each! Ive never had a beer in the city that cheap.I highly recommend stopping by Jimmys Corner for a drink and have a good chat with friends and visitors alike no doubt I will be frequenting this bar any chance I get when Im in the city!And as my future father in-law says Its a city bar for the working guy! -

Top dive bar in Manhattan! Not to be pretentious here but on Google Im top 1% of dive bar reviewers in the United States and this place absolutely rocked my boat! Prices are like what you would expect to pay in Arkansas lol. This bar has an amazing jukebox! Pretty much anything anyone plays is gold. Great prices, selection, service and vibe. There is so much history on the walls with all the photos and signed boxing memorabilia. If you are a boxing fan this is a must to visit! Its amazing. Hands down this place is a relic and is an amazing experience. -

It is a dive bar, no other description. We got there about 5:15 and could barely squeeze inside. A truly eclectic and friendly cast of characters was present. We sent a $5 bill along the wall through multiple hands to feed the jukebox in back, it worked. 2 titos and sodas were $10. The woman to my left, in the German Navy, was throwing down shots while we chatted, and after firing them down the hatch, finished by licking each one of her fingers (all 9 of them). Simultaneously, my beautiful date ( who likes me!), standing to my right, was getting hit on by a lesbian construction worker half her size, who kept asking how do I get with you. Within 10 minutes we were pulling on each others coats- the universal sign that we need to get out of here. Cant wait to go back!! -

If you want to find beer in NYC at below 6 bucks a pint - this is literally the place. Really nice lady who worked behind the bar, no-nonsense type of place. Highly recommend. -

Yo we took this picture probably about 30X but this was our favorite but anyway we are Shelby and Ryan from Florida and we met the most amazing bartenders especially Martina she was so helpful because I sell soap all over the USA and we travel and we absolutely loved the margaritas the owner Kareem or however he spells his name He’s the most genuine, kind soul I’ve met in New York City. I will be coming back here over and over again as much as I can, even if I end up sober one day1000000 stars ⭐️ -

$4 pints all day, boxing themed but knowledge optional (though if you are a fan the bartenders all know their pugilists, always good chat), busy without being crowded, friendly, diverse with locals and tourists alike - if they didn’t close I’d never leave. A must. -

I simply love this place! It has such a cool vibe to it. It’s a first cheap bar I found the in New York and on multiple occasions we had such a good time there. We usually go for a couple of draft Bud Lights, usually not my favorite beer but the atmosphere and cheap beer make it up. It’s really close to Times sq. You can meet a lot of interesting people, travelers and New Yorkers respectively. -

What a great, regular guy place to get a beer in Times Square. Boxing themed and narrow this place has a very friendly staff, terrific mix of patrons and exceptionally reasonable drink prices. Oh, and the jukebox is trapped in the greatest eras of music pretty much stopping in the mid-80s which is just the way I like it. It was the last bar a buddy and I hit on a night out and we were sorry we didnt find it sooner. -

An exclusive 5 star bar lounge with all top shelf options. Be prepared to pay about $30 per drink, but the quality of ingredients topped with knowledgeable barristers makes it a valuable experience. -

Jimmys Corner bar is on W. 44th Street, New York City, less than a block from Times Square. It is a dive bar in every sense of the word and probably sells the cheapest beer in the whole of NYC. This small place is usually packed with a cross-selection of Manhattan life. It has a wonderful atmosphere that is enhanced by all the boxing photos and posters adorning its walls. If you like dive bars, I can thoroughly recommend Jimmys. -

Review 111 (2019-06-21 - Rating: 5)
I met up with an old friend at Jimmys corner and was extremely excited at the prices of the drinks. I waited for him with my first drink in hand and and once he got there we ordered several more. Losing count of our drinks we ask for the bill and when it was only $17 we quickly got a few more rounds! It is the perfect little spot to catch up with a friend or to go on a date. We left feeling extremely wonderful walking through Times Square thanking Jimmy for all of the good drinks and the good times. Not to mention the decor gave a warm and welcoming atmosphere with boxing memorabilia all around you. Would definitely recommend especially for how cheap the drinks were! Cuz you know I like them strong! Dew approve!!!🍻😊 -

Wanna make new friends over affordable, delicious drinks?Perfect spot by the streets of Times Square. It’s friendly, it easy and it’s super cosy place. Eat and go. Only drinks are available. Vaccination card and id proof must. The owner is very welcoming and super active. Don’t go if you are not above 21. New York people a must visit ❤️ -

$3.5 shots and mixed drinks. Great place to just hang out and get cheap drinks. You wont find another place like this in Manhattan. Not sure why its not more popular. Not a fancy place but they have tables at the back and even have negronis! Place is decorated with a bunch of Muhammed Ali posters and pictures which are fun to look through. -
Review 117 (2017-07-01 - Rating: 5)
By far the best deal (and best-kept secret?) in the Times Square/Midtown area. I had three bourbon & Cokes, my husband had three draft beers, and our tab was less than $20. The bar itself is small and definitely dive bar in decor/ambience, but the bar staff were perfectly friendly and I was more than satisfied with the quality of my drinks. Will definitely return! -

Review 119 (2019-12-21 - Rating: 5)
The best bar in all of New York City. I have friends in the city that I visit often and of all the bars I have ever been to, nothing ever felt authentic. No place ever felt like it had a real soul to me. This is the only place I’ve been that felt authentic... and it’s located in the heart of one of the most inauthentic places in not just the city, but all of America. Also, if you are a boxing fan, this place is a must-see. Smothered in amazing history and a great place to just take it easy and grab a few cold ones. -

What a great place- no frills , cheap drinks, cocktails are simple and made well! The owner, Jimmy, is a legendary boxing coach - hence youll see many boxing photographs hung all over the wall. Space does get a little tight and you may have to wait.- but hey if you want to have a good time with your friends, its worth waiting for a table and spending some time here. Enjoy! -

Very nice, cozy and cheap place. The service was excellent, quick and friendly. I would definitely recommend. The only downside is that because its small and popular, it ends up being a bit crowded, so you might have some trouble finding a place to sit. Other than that its definitely something to check if one is looking for a casual drink. -

Small for a midtown bar but u cant beat the staff and the prices. One of the few places in Manhattan where Id wait for a table because every night here is a good night and youre always bound to learn something new. Jimmys been around a long time and just reading the memorabilia on the wall will show you some of the greats hes worked with in his lifetime (including Muhammad Ali). -

If you want to have drinks while in Time Square but do not want to over pay for them then you definitely want to go to Jimmys corner.The place is literally a corner, more like a hallway actually, however, the staff is cool and pretty laid back. Did I mention that they do not overcharge for drinks and they are located in Times Square? lolThe place is old and the bathroom isnt very cleaned but you are going there to drink and not to eat or sleep so get over it!The bartender told the most expensive drink they have cost $7, you cant beat that!If you want to read more about my stay in New York, you can visit my website jujugurgeldotcom -
