    Best happy hour in NYC! $7 cocktails and light bites. Great service, nice vibes and excellent cocktails. Love love love this bar!

  • Review 2 (2019-10-24 - Rating: 5)

    Finally, a place on the Lower East Side that has draft beer that isnt a dive! When I stepped into Rickys, I was immediately greeted by Anthony who showed me to the bar where I was given a menu of the 20 beers they have on tap, plus other selections. The ambiance was calm and cool but not pretentious. It had an open atmosphere that still allowed for intimate conversation. The smaller area in the back allows for special gatherings without the interruption of the first room. The staff was very accommodating and friendly and paid attention to their customers. Special taps will be brought in allowing for an even more extended beer menu. Cant wait to return. Definitely on my Go To list when I visit New York!

    $7 for a happy hour espresso martini is iconic. Quality espresso martinis too, not one of these watered down, low effort, danced on canned espresso martinis... Sorry a lot of descriptors there but they came from my soul.A reasonable happy hour from 4-7pm too. $7 at 6:59pm, $17 at 7:01pm. It really grinds my gears when places advertise a happy hour but its from 4-6 M-F only... like I cant even physically make that. I guess I gotta go harder for financial freedom...I sat here at the Pretty Rickys bar with my big homie, surrounded by Halloween decorations, ripping a couple $7 espresso martinis while just sitting there talking about life.Pretty Rickys is doing inflation how Ilia Topuria did Max Holloway last night. Damn that hurt to even type. Tough to watch your heroes get sent to the shadow realm, but a $7 espresso martini helps take the pain away.IG @jnov_Tiktok @jnov_reviews

    Great Happy Hour spot with cheap prices on food and drink. All the cocktails were tasty and strong. While the food portions were smaller, they were just enough for happy hour. The music was nice and the space was large and had an indoor outdoor vibe, that is just perfect for the summer.

  • Review 5 (2024-07-12 - Rating: 4)

    I visited here for Happy Hours. The food and drinks are all GOOD! But the music was so loud inside, that it was hard to talk. Overall, it was good!

  • Review 6 (2021-06-08 - Rating: 5)

    I didnt take pictures of the cocktails because they were so good, we enjoyed so much, that i forgot about taking picture...Such a great surprise. From outside, you dont expect a so beautiful place. Service was amazing, kind and perfect !We will come back and try food-snacks. We already recommend this place to friends and they loved it !

  • Review 7 (2023-10-16 - Rating: 5)

    Delicious American comfort food in a spacious setting. The couches are perfect for a Sunday night dinner. The mac and cheese was the standout!

  • Review 8 (2024-05-14 - Rating: 5)

    Went for happy hour ….best I’ve seen in NYC. For $7 good drinks and tried many. Cool staff great interior. The happy hour food was really good too.

  • Review 9 (2022-06-15 - Rating: 5)

    Blacktail bartender Pop-up was amazing, I was so happy to see one of my favorite pre-pandemic bars perform with so much energy. The people was amazing, drinks were delicious, the mojitos were solid. Would love to experience this again. Thank you guys for an amazing evening!

  • Review 10 (2024-05-24 - Rating: 4)

    Great happy hour deal for oysters! And they tasted super fresh. Only $7 for five or six different food options and $7 for on tap cocktails. Other food also available. Fish tacos were tasty but a bit too wet. Cool bright space but music was way too loud.

    We cannot say enough good things about Pretty Ricky’s! For starters, it’s very inviting! Upon entering, the atmosphere is lively, The host, servers and staff are all friendly and helpful. The food is very good. We had the chickpea and focaccia dish! The Cosmo and peach cocktails are amazing!

  • Review 12 (2023-02-25 - Rating: 5)

    I was out looking for a good craft beer spot and I’m glad we found Pretty Ricky’s. Great selection of local craft beers and big selection of cocktails and really cool atmosphere.Ive been working in the service industry for 20 years and I see how dedicated the staff providing outstanding customer service. Water on the table once you sit down, and if your beer has a few sips left, another beer or drink for you? Perfect service.I would like to give Michael and Lily a shoutout for outstanding service.Cheers

    I loved the atmosphere at the bar. Great cocktails and an amazing customer service. Miguel is the best bartender!!!

    Had the best time here with friends from out of town. The vibe was immaculate and perfect for a hot summer night. Friends were so impressed with quality of food, delicious beers and friendly service. Would recommend Pretty Rickys for any kind of gathering.

  • Review 16 (2023-05-14 - Rating: 4)

    Cool vibes. We sat for drinks and apps around 930 on a saturday, by the time we wanted to order round 2 the place got bumpin and we couldnt even flag down our waiter. Was a little annoying having to wait/ try to find him for like 15 mins but would go back for standing at the bar (not sit at a table).

  • Review 17 (2021-07-30 - Rating: 5)

    Honestly Pretty Ricky’s is my favorite place. Their cocktails are amazing and the food is pretty good too. The best part is the service.. I absolutely love the staff. There’s a waitress that always knows I’m coming in for my favorite Pretty Rickys cocktail.. the Paper Plane.. must try!!! I love how the place looks and the ambiance. It’s always so much fun.

  • Review 18 (2024-08-11 - Rating: 5)

    My friends and I come here at least once a week for after work drinks. Great vibe, drinks, food, & bartenders. They have a fantastic happy hour as well. Also love their staff! My new designer sunglasses and my ysl lip gloss fell out of my bag one night and I came back 3 days later and they held on to them for me. I thought I was never gonna see them again! Never have a bad night here.

  • Review 19 (2023-01-18 - Rating: 5)

    I was sad to see Spitzers close and was skeptical if any bar could replace a fun night at Spitzers. I was wrong to be skeptical because the team at Pretty Ricky’s DELIVERS! This place rocks. Great food, cocktails and best of all always an awesome crowd. Trust me, you are going to enjoy your nights at Pretty Ricky’s

  • Review 20 (2023-09-11 - Rating: 5)

    Happy hour here is $6 for select cocktails. Secret great place for a HH with a friend! Friendly staff and $6 espresso martini was 10/10.

  • Review 21 (2023-06-24 - Rating: 5)

    For context: I’m 74: fun place. I could have been everyone’s grandfather. High energy, intelligent, fun with excellent and friendly service, ice cold craft beer on tap and surprisingly good food.

    I got the pesto tagliatelle, delicious and tasted homemade. Big portion. Great playlist, music was good and service was great.

  • Review 26 (2022-11-10 - Rating: 4)

    We came here just for some drinks as we waited for a friend and Im so glad that we found it! The vibe is good, the crowd is mixed and the drinks are flowing. We got the french fries, which may be the best fries that Ive ever had! Theyre double fried, so the crunch and flavor is absolutely amazing!

    One of my favorite places in the LES! Great drinks and music! Ambiance is always on point. But be warned, it gets very packed on Saturday nights!

  • Review 33 (2022-10-09 - Rating: 4)

    In a great place right now. Not emotionally. Just a bar@prettyrickysbar is pretty chill place to hang out.Drinks from oct 21 menu: Stoped by here with my parents a few weeks ago and tried some of their cocktails, indulging a @titosvodka cosmo, @jimbeamofficial and lemonade (my dads choice), and Charos kick (a tequila, mezcal, almond, lime unique mix)!Drinks from jun 22: Here’s a throwback to drinks at @prettyrickysbar a few weeks ago! We sat outside and tried•Tommy Two Touch - red pepper mezcal, tomato, Verdoita, Tajin•Falcon Punch - sage hiatus tequila, Montenegro, pomegranate, apricot, orange butters•The Banana Shack - monkey shoulder scotch, yellow chartreuse, fino sherry, banana

    The besttt happy hour in les, hands down. Food and drinks were incredible and everything was $6 each— nothing to complain about

  • Review 35 (2022-12-13 - Rating: 5)

    I liked it! It was a nice and quaint place to sit down and get a drink. There’s a standing bar in the back that is more lively if you want that.

  • Review 36 (2023-06-02 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 37 (2020-10-20 - Rating: 5)

    Always a go to for costumes and makeup especially for Halloween. Make sure to get there earlier in the month as it becomes extremely busy the closer to Halloween comes. Always an easy a go to place to find whatever costume or costume makeup youre looking for. Recommend

  • Review 38 (2019-11-15 - Rating: 5)

    This place is such a gem! It’s very lowkey but has a good vibe, it feels pretty upscale but the drinks are not a crazy price. This is a good place to catch up with friends.

  • Review 39 (2022-01-21 - Rating: 5)

    Happy Hour BangerA few friends, a few apps, and a few $6 glasses of wine….. doesn’t that sound like a delightful way to start the shenanigans?!The spot is upbeat, easy to find, and located in a sea of near by establishments, making Pretty Ricky’s a focal point of disaster… I mean focal point of fun!$6 wine, $5 beer, $5 wells, $9 oysters, and a few other bar bites ranging $5-7…. Danger, danger, danger!! You may have one too many…. But With prices like that your wallet won’t regret it. Mayyyyyyybe just your dignity in the morning…. And looking back on where all the debochery started, you’ll know it was a great choice.Highly recommend for budget friendly feasting!

  • Review 70 (2021-05-27 - Rating: 5)

    We wandered into this bar after lunch at Essex Market, it was amazing! Fully vaccinated seating indoors meant we didnt have to worry about other people. The bartender was amazing, he pulled three cocktails out of thin air based on what people liked, and he was really cute and fun to talk to. Our two-birthday group really enjoyed our big day out in Manhattan because of Pretty Rickys.

    I’m a long time supporter of this industry group and all their venues. They know how to take a space and build it out in understated class, add interesting cocktails/ beverage menu and add tasty dishes with a fun atmosphere. Another great joint with an excellent beer selection this time. Well done!My favorite menu item so far is the oysters and my favorite cocktail is the Disco Shrimp Try it!Speak to Anthony if you want to have a great time!

  • Review 77 (2021-11-05 - Rating: 5)

    Cutest little bar/restaurant, elegant vibe without actually being an upscale restaurant. Service was the best I’ve experienced in nyc (here for the weekend) warm, fast and friendly (also bartender was p cute not gonna lie) Great happy hour specials as well! Will be back next time I’m in the neighborhood.

  • Review 78 (2022-11-09 - Rating: 5)

    Great vibes! Drinks were also pretty decently priced.

  • Review 79 (2019-12-05 - Rating: 5)

    New place, nice interior and good beer selection. Bar bites also very nice with some vegan options. Has a low key vibe, yet a bit more upscale than the neighboring dive bars (which I also like). Service is good. Clean. Pricing isn’t OTT, you won’t go wrong here.

  • Review 80 (2021-07-28 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 83 (2020-03-04 - Rating: 4)

    This place was good but not amazing like the other reviews have said. If you find yourself a few blocks away then it’s worth a visit, otherwise not worth making a trip for. The food and drinks were good. It is just a bar though. Honestly the inflated all 5-star reviews made this a bit disappointing....

  • Review 84 (2020-01-26 - Rating: 4)

    Mostly good cocktails (would avoid the coffee one). Great beer selection. The food is good as well but would recommend front the bar to cut it off as Friday and Saturday evening start. Expect the bar vide to quickly shift from lounge to blaring social scene during this time as well. My party had a tough time talking over the speakers as it got progressive louder throughout the night.

  • Review 85 (2021-08-02 - Rating: 5)
