Torch & Crown Brewing Union Square in New York

Review 1 (2024-05-17 - Rating: 5)
We stopped on our walk Times Square because the atmosphere of this brewery is spectacular. I tried Bat Flip because it included gummy bear in the description. Soooo refreshing, sweet, and sessionable. My partner got Almost Famous: he claims its juicy, flavorful, and enjoyable. Wish we had more time in NYC so we could spend more time here. One of the first places weve stopped that has space and doesnt smell like piss. 😉😍

Many different businesses have been at this site, but always a great spot. Its amazing to think this area was so run down until the last few decades until B&N moved in and the Coffee Shop days. Definitely a testament to how far the city and this area has come!

We had a wonderful work event at Torch and Crown! The layout and location was perfect, the food delicious and beers hit the spot. Extra thanks to Jeff, Wayne, and the helpful staff for taking such great care of us too!

One of my favorite places in NYC to enjoy 🍺 outside. Great staff. Solid choice of Torch & Crown beer. Good food. And sometimes, I DJ there😎

Nice music. Good selection of beers and cocktails. In the heart of Union Square. The beers could be colder.

Touch & Crown, for me, has filled a long-vacant niche as my go-to neighborhood bar in Union Square- its a genuine, homey spot that offers an excellent atmosphere to either work in the afternoon, chill and have drinks - it’s MORE than a beer Garden- full bar.I have to give credit to Carlos and Freddy, who are noticeably striving to create something special. Its apparent theyre investing effort and heart into this place. USQ can be a bit cheesy, but theyve managed to strike a great balance between an exciting venue and a place that feels just like your friendly neighborhood hangout.In essence, Touch & Crown has a genuine neighborhood vibe that has been missing for quite some time. Its been a pleasure to see it develop and Im keen to watch its future unfold. A solid spot for a drink in the neighborhood. They serve small nibbles now but hopefully will expand to a bigger menu.

First time here and had the most wonderful experience. Plenty of seats in a low key atmosphere. Food was great— loved the pretzel with mustard. Special shoutout to Wayne and Lance for the hospitality. They made me and my friend feel like regulars even though it was our first time. Will be back… probably next week! :)

The food rating is for the beer, Google should really add star ratings for beer, wine and cocktails to these reviews.Anyways great place and glad its reopened for the season.

What a perfect location for the second installation of torch and crown. A bit of a limited menu but the food we had was delicious. All the beers you love as well as cocktails and wine. The market can be exhausting and it’s nice to be able to take a beer break. Dog friendly as well.

On a hot summer day a cold drink from a beer garden is called for. This place is open from Memorial Day until Labor Day.

My husband and I hosted a pre-pre-wedding event so that our families (13-people total) could meet for the first time and everything went great!The manager who I worked with leading up to the event was patient in answering my MANY questions, the bartenders and servers were very friendly (extra special shoutout to Oscar), and the food was next level considering this is a brewery?! My family is still raving over the calamari which was so fresh and crispy....We also order burgers, flat bread, caesar salad and sshishito peppers, which were a hit.Def recommend this place for events or just a casual place you can count on for a good time with friends.

Union square location was very fun. Nice summer beer garden. Finger foods and corn hole tossing. Who wouldn’t love it.

Torch & Crown has been in this covered outdoor Union Square space since the spring of 2023. Torch & Crown itself boasts great beers as Manhattans largest brewery. The bar is also convenient because it has beer, wines, cocktails (full bar), and mocktail options - everyone wins. In 2024 they are also introducing a pretty full food menu with the kitchen and head chef. Its open here for the spring and summer, and very worth a trip out for an afternoon to relax with friends.
