    Nice bar , attentive bartenders, food was good. Chicken wings were really spicy but very tasty. I like this bar, I would go back. 🥃🍹🍷🍻🍺🐓🍗🐣

  • Review 2 (2024-11-24 - Rating: 4)

    The beer is a little bit expensive. I love the location. I love the atmosphere. The food is good. Good service. Good Irish folks behind the bar. Its a place pub that I will revisit when strolling Manhattan

  • Review 3 (2024-08-11 - Rating: 5)

    Not sure where some of the other reviews about the bartenders come from. We were here from Vermont, and this was far and away the best place we visited in the city. Drinks were good, bartender made a point to get peoples names and talk to them like friends. John was awesome. The shepherds pie was also on point!

  • Review 4 (2024-03-13 - Rating: 5)

    My go-to bar in midtown. Bartender Jenny is great and friendly and makes great drinks, and so are all of the bartenders. I recommend the jalapeño poppers, my go-to favorites. Jagerbombs are great here too, and the Long Island iced tea. All in all recommend coming here if you’re in the area. Take the A/C or the D/B or the 1 to 59th Columbus Circle, use the Turnstyle market exit, and walk a bit and you’ll find the place.

  • Review 5 (2024-06-22 - Rating: 5)

    Nice stop on a blistering day! Draft Guinness and a lighter stout we hadn’t had before-“SMITHWICKS - KILKENNY CO.Its exceptional taste, distinctive colour and purity of ingredients make it unique. Red Ale. 5.0% ABV”Our thirsts were quenched.

  • Review 6 (2020-02-10 - Rating: 4)

    Went on a Wednesday around 6pm and it wasn’t too crowded; the waitress was quick with seating our group of 5. Drinks are much smaller than what you’d get from other bars but still they were really well made. Ordered just some “snacks” with the drinks — French fries, mozzarella sticks, and fried calamari. Preparation wasn’t too long, maybe 20-30 mins to get. Very small and cozy (little expensive, that’s the city) but would definitely return. Great spot!

  • Review 7 (2024-11-12 - Rating: 5)

    Great bar with good value food. Gabriel and Paul look after you at the bar. Plenty TVs for sports. Good mix of locals and tourists. Worth a visit for lunch. Recommended.

  • Review 8 (2024-11-05 - Rating: 5)

    What a fantastic hidden gem pub with fantastic friendly bar staff. Couldnt recommend enough! Also, phenomenal pint of Guinness.

  • Review 9 (2024-05-05 - Rating: 4)

    Nice place with a good beer selection, friendly staff and good burgers. They typically have 80’s and early 90’s music playing in the background which is also great.

  • Review 10 (2024-05-21 - Rating: 4)

    Hubby needed a nightcap before retiring to our hotel for the night. This was the closest place with draft beer. The whiskey pour was generous. The bartender/owner was friendly and engaging.

  • Review 11 (2022-10-10 - Rating: 5)

    Great place to get away from the noise & have a beer &/or a beer. Seemed they were short staffed but the bartender/waiter/ host was a nonstop working machine! Definitely a good vibe stop for locals & tourists

  • Review 12 (2019-07-16 - Rating: 5)

    Great services. The guys are attentive, will make you feel very comfortable and music is great. Darrah has a great memory to bring your favorite beer btw 😉enjoy it as much as I did.

    We had such great time here with Gabriel & John bartending!!! Lots of laughs & sharing stories. Will definitely come back next time were in NYC....Thanks guys!!! Salud, Slainte!!! 🇵🇷🇮🇪

    Great pub, was our go to spot for the few days we were in NY, couldnt fault the service by all the staff but esp Paul, lovely friendly true Irish gentleman, he couldnt have been more welcoming 😀 would def recommend. Hopefully go back one day when its not the worst rain in history!!

  • Review 15 (2024-06-20 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing food and really good prices! The nachos are maybe the best Ive ever eaten.

    Nice pub. Bartenders are friendly and drinks are good. Food is well prepared, also. A good place to spend time.

  • Review 17 (2023-03-28 - Rating: 5)

    Only had drinks here but it was nice. Great little table right near the front of the pub in a little pocket. Window opened up and we could get the “fresh” city air while people watching. Good spot for a pint.

  • Review 18 (2024-08-10 - Rating: 5)

    Had a couple drinks in here, server was lovely and chatty, nice atmosphere!

  • Review 19 (2018-06-24 - Rating: 5)

    Just a solid Irish bar. Watched a world cup game here and it was perfect, lots of TVs, delicious burgers and nachos. The bartenders are super friendly and cute. Good food, good service good times, and cool artwork on the walls. Good for groups too so bring your friends and enjoy

  • Review 20 (2019-07-29 - Rating: 5)

    We had such a great time at this bar on vacation. They played great music for my family (late 60s - early 70s classic rock). The service was fantastic. The young Irish waitress that served us did an impeccable job. If you are from out of town, I recommend the Brooklyn Lager to drink. Check out the menu online. I had part of the sampler, the Rumors Burger, the Rumours Fries and the Club Sandwich on different occasions. All of the food was good. Also, this place had about the cleanest restroom Ive ever seen in a bar.

  • Review 21 (2023-06-16 - Rating: 5)

    Nice dive bar. Dont quote me, but Im pretty sure the last call is 3am.Excellent service. Great clientele and atmosphere. Wasnt able to try the food, but Im sure its edible.

  • Review 22 (2022-11-26 - Rating: 5)

    Visited on our last day in New York before heading to the airport, which was Thanksgiving. Everything was great! Bar staff were lovely too, chatting away. Definitely would go back when next in NY! 👏🤗

  • Review 23 (2020-02-24 - Rating: 5)

    Absolutely love this place. Its my local whenever I am in Manhattan. The food is tasty especially the bangers and mash, yum! Damian (hope I spelt it correctly), and the crew who work there are an amazing crew. Always making sure you eat and drink well. Highly recommended, very highly.

  • Review 24 (2022-03-10 - Rating: 5)

    Great classic Irish bar with some of the most friendly bartenders ever. Ordered a beer there once and the bar tendered remembered my order and poured it immediately for me the next time I walked through the door. Long live Rumors!!

  • Review 25 (2019-11-03 - Rating: 5)

    Great burger and wraps. Not too crowded when I come by on an occasional Thursday evening. Last time we got them to change the game on one of the tvs. Initially they said they couldnt because it would change them all but then they figured it out and my table appreciated it. Cant beat the prices here if looking for something decent in the neighborhood, food usually comes out quick as well.

  • Review 26 (2024-02-26 - Rating: 5)

    Great little inviting pub with kind bartenders, need a bite or a beer? Give those feet a rest? This place is just right.

  • Review 27 (2022-03-05 - Rating: 5)

    Mike Nash, the proprietor, is amazing. Embraces the clientele with friendliness and always eager to please.He also treats his staff with the utmost respect. Staff are always pleasant and offer.good service.Good pub food.

  • Review 28 (2024-06-20 - Rating: 5)

    Enjoyed a nice meal before seeing The Great Gatsby at the Broadway Theatre. Several of us had the Buffalo chicken wrap which was great and came with steak fries. Great menu for my picky family. Lots of draft beer options. Friendly bartender and server. We love going to Irish bars whenever in NYC.

  • Review 29 (2020-01-11 - Rating: 4)

    Nice chilled out atmosphere to just unwind away from the bus times square area. Food was lovely. The only downside it did take a little while for our food to come out and we had to ask twice for where my girlfriends cup of tea was.

  • Review 30 (2021-10-13 - Rating: 5)

    If you want to have a great time around Columbus circle come check out Rumours. This was my go to spot when I used to work nearby. Their food selection is good. The wings are great! The drinks is good and the music is amazing. I’ve come here to watch plenty of games. I like how they got so many bathrooms so we don’t have to depend on one. They also had a pool pre-COVID . Not sure how it is now.

  • Review 31 (2023-01-31 - Rating: 5)

    I absolutely love this place! People and bartenders are friendly. Drinks and food are really good and experience everytime I make a visit here is fantastic.

  • Review 36 (2019-03-24 - Rating: 4)

    Had a great Irish coffee (strong on whiskey, lots of thick cream) and excellent shepherds pie. Music too loud for a Sunday morning and only half dozen patrons; made conversation difficult. Pleasant, attentive servers.

  • Review 37 (2023-06-26 - Rating: 5)

    Had a good burger and beer here.

  • Review 38 (2019-03-05 - Rating: 5)

    Ran in to grab a quick drink before seeing Apollo 11. Drinks are reasonably priced and bartenders are nice and personable. They had sports, wheel of fortune, and jeopardy on in the background. Atmosphere has the nice Irish Pub feel to it with wooden paneling, dimmish lighting, and lots of irish memorabilia. Would definitely go back!

  • Review 39 (2016-05-24 - Rating: 4)

    Russian Tea Room is one of the most iconic restaurant in NYC. I have always been curious about them, but didnt really have had the chance to visit. I decided to take an advantage during the Winter Restaurant Week NYC, and try their Russian cuisine.I might say the rating would be between 3 and 4 stars, but since we got such an amazing deal out of the Restaurant Week pricing, I will give it 4 starts.As we walked through the antique revolving doors under the red awnings, we were in awe of the beautiful décor. I have only seen the inside on photos, but it was as stunning as I expected it to be, or more. It was all gold, red, and green. Everywhere I looked, it was like looking at art. The inside was quite large, and I believe for this reason, they had a work staff station in the mid way of the floor, so that they dont have to constantly walking back and forth from the very front of the floor to the very back. This made the service faster and more efficient. Very clever.Food portion was small, other than the Chicken, which was expected. None of them were amazing or best thing I ever tasted, but it was from ok or up to pretty good.The wait staff were efficient, but not too friendly. The other staff (the ones who take away the plates, refill your water, give you extra bread, etc.) were nice and polite, they did great job keeping the table clean and made sure we were well taken care of.Overall, we did enjoy the experience very much, especially the atmosphere. At such iconic restaurant, I think everything is there to take in the beauty, history, décor, and ambiance more than the actual food itself. Being in that space alone was stunning experience. It is not a place to go get an amazing food, but more for amazing experience in that space. Read my full review of this restaurant and food on my food blog, foodlovergirl.

    I recently visited Rumours Bar & Grille in Manhattan, NYC and I must say it was a great experience. Its an Irish pub/sports bar and it was really fun. The atmosphere was lively and the staff were friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and I cant wait to go back and try some of the other dishes. Highly recommend!

  • Review 45 (2020-01-04 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 49 (2012-12-10 - Rating: 4)

    Dive bar with lots of tvs to watch sports. good for groups who just want a place to chill and have a few drinks since no food order is necessary. mixed drinks are a bit more expensive, but they are high quality. it often gets crowded on weekends, but usually has bad music on weekdays.

    Our server was super kind, efficient, attentive, and overall pleasant. The menu was not huge in reference to drinks or food, but that was okay because what was served was piping hot and delicious. The ambience and the crowd seemed like regulars and everyone was pretty chill. I will make it a point to my visits to NYC to go here again and again.

    Me and my team - as industry people who work in very fancy hotels - go to this place specifically for outstanding service. Me and my management colleagues from other hotels, bars and restaurants go there just for Sean. He is responsible, respectful, understanding and very good at customer service. He remembers everyone’s names and drinks even if you don’t go there for 9 months! This is unbelievable!Although we are from the industry knowing all the tricks, we feel very special there probably because he puts his heart in his job. It is a quiet and peaceful environment to chill out, nice people, super polite owners. This will never be a disappointing experience for anyone! 💛 We will always be back with more people!

    I went there for night out with friends. We didnt get any food just drinks, they are in the $9 - 15 price range. The crowd is a bit older saw some early 30s people in the bar but there is good vibes all around. Theres not a designer dance floor or something to really entice you to come. If you are in the area tho its worth taking a look at

  • Review 111 (2018-09-29 - Rating: 4)

    As a pub, it was good. The food was good. The service...eh...not so much! She seemed annoyed that she had to serve us, at all. She barely cracked a smile. We still gave her a very nice tip, as there were 6 of us in our group. I even tried to engage her in light chatter and complimented her to try and get her to respond, but, to no avail. She was also not attentive to our table and we had to wave her down multiple times for just the basic things. We were a group of 4 women and 2 men aging in range from 45 to 66, so its not like we were some kind of annoying or obnoxious table of degenerates or something. We were kind, respectful, and, as I mentioned earlier, we STILL gave her a nice tip.The DJ was good, but the music was just way to loud to hold conversations with each other.Id like to try it again on another day, and see if the service is better, or if its a pattern.

    Nice spot near Central Park with a decently sized location. Unlike other bars Ive been to in NYC , it didnt feel claustrophobic. It had a nice little crowd going Sunday around 4pm and still had a lot of seating.Sadly, there isnt any happy hour on Sundays so we ordered 3 well drinks for $8 each. They were decent drinks.We also ordered the sampler which was good for $13.

    Came to town and found this little gem! Loved the dive bar feel and Sean went above and beyond to help my friend and I out when we ran into an issue with a pedal cab! If we are ever back in town will definitely come back to this place!!

    Local Irish pub with excellent pub food and a large menu. Guinness is always fresh and I recommend the potato skins and the Rumors Fries. Wait staff is attentive and friendly and the place is clean. Atmosphere is half pub, half sports bar. Beer selection is decent with many on tap, though the selection is very standard.

    Cool bar for a Good Guinness.

  • Review 124 (2019-09-02 - Rating: 5)

    Our new favorite bar in NYC! The staff is super friendly and they have a good beer selection. Music was fun and eclectic - classic 80s, 90s, mostly. We sat at a table near the open window on a beautiful night and had a fantastic evening just having a few Smithwicks beers. The icing on the cake was when the bartender came over and out of the blue gave us a free large pizza!!! Thanks!

    You can get exactly what you expect from an Irish pub. Wide range of beers, some pub food.

  • Review 132 (2016-10-20 - Rating: 5)

    Lets just talk about Tony and Brig (actually Irish chick, shes cool). They are awesome! We became friends pretty quick. Great drinks, descent pricing & good customer service! Bar food, and lots of options at the bar. Ill be coming again.

    Run of the mill, NYC Irish Pub. Server/bartenders were super friendly (and a Brit and Irishman, for authenticity I guess). I ordered a few pints, and drank them, so I give that 5-stars. Would have given review 5 stars overall of wife didnt prefer a margarita that was in essence alcohol and powdered sugar over ice. Shame on us for ordering a margarita at an Irish pub though; you dont criticize the Shepards Pie at a Mexican restaurant.

    Best bar in New York! The two Irish lads were the BEST bartenders we’ve ever had. So much knowledge about the whiskeys and very nice and welcoming. We’ll never forget our New York trip after this bar. Highly reccomend!

    An interior is really good and close to what I expected. Drinks are fine, but “filling” the cups might be better. But it might be just an American pint.

  • Review 158 (2017-12-25 - Rating: 4)

    Surprisingly decent. I was a bit tentative about eating here at first, but there was nothing else to eat around the area on Christmas Eve. The place on the inside was a bit run down. But the value of the food was good considering the price we paid. $10 for a good penne allá vodka pasta sounds like a deal considering you can get the same quality at twice the price at a crappy Italian restaurant. In conclusion, the restaurant isn’t out of this world, but it gets the job done.

    Rumours Bar is a nice place to refresh yourself after a ambulation in the nearby Central Park. The bar had a nice relaxed atmosphere (it was a Wednesday afternoon) and the standard (but good) selection of NYC draught beers. The bar has all of the (arguably essential) trappings of a regular bar - some nice beers, food, rustic signs on the wall (also, a photo of Keith Richards from British beat group Rolling Stones drinking in said pub and a cartoon of The Stones with exaggerated large heads) and TVs showing popular American sports.
