    Not bad for a drink if you’re around the area. Does feel like an old school Pub for serious drinks but chill. Come on by while the wife sleeps.

  • Review 2 (2024-10-05 - Rating: 5)

    Very cool, quaint spot! Espresso martini and Old Fashion were spot on! Thank you 😊

    You are greeted by lovely welcoming security upon entering. Happy hour prices range from about $8-$12 for beers/wine/shots. The waitress I had, I wouldn’t say she was rude but English clearly isn’t her first language and she misunderstood multiple things I said. She assumed what I said and mixed up what I needed all three times. I asked for the wifi password and she gave me a glass of wine. I asked her if they sold food and only then did she offer me popcorn and give the people seated next to me bowls as well. (Popcorn is the only food available here but you can order food and eat there) By the way, if you love the smell of freshly popped pop corn … you’ll love it here. So yes there’s FREE popcorn with your drink purchase. Also, the same waitress was only friendly when giving us the bill … I will not sit on her side of the bar again. The music was great, they have multiple floors and a large seating area. I’d recommend you stopping by if you want a cheap drink, warm atmosphere, and huge screens to watch sports.

    For an out of towner, this place immediately felt like my neighborhood bar. Anna (Anya?) was the actual best and the vibe was just right. Literal 5/5, would go again. In a heartbeat.

    Great selection of whiskey and good spot to hang out to kill a few minutes before dinner. Staff were attentive and cocktails were good!

    Hidden gem, f other bars, thank you! This is the bestestest bar on 6th. Low price, given its Manhattan. Awesome ambiaaaance. And they have free popcorn 😍. This is 10 out of 5 stars! Will come back and recommend to every drinking soul I know!!! P.S. Come here if you love WHISKEEEYS 🥃🥃🥃

    A great spot for meeting friends and having a drink. The have a cool party room upstairs that will serve 12-15 people.

  • Review 12 (2023-03-05 - Rating: 4)

    Good sports bar with fairly ok amount of tap beers.

  • Review 13 (2022-11-11 - Rating: 5)

    Visiting from Salt Lake City, stopped by and enjoyed the service and the drinks. The couches on the lounge area are accommodating and comfortable, the cocktail waitresses are fast and efficient. One thing that really raised my eye brows was the popcorn as a appetizer. That’s different!!!

  • Review 14 (2022-05-27 - Rating: 5)

    Happy client is here.I was very pleased with service in the bar, especially from such a beautiful girl.Irina was very professional, easy going and hospitable. The service was rocket fast and smooth. My boys and I are really happy! No way we are going back to Cassidys Pub ever again. Whiskey Trader has much better service, atmosphere and nicer staff. Thank you guys, we are definitely gonna be back again.

  • Review 15 (2024-07-15 - Rating: 4)

    A pretty solid dive bar to go to. Whether youre here to catch a game, catch up with friends, or just looking for a spot to hang out at after work. Its a long room rather than a wide room with several staircases. Its a bit dark, but it gets packed. No complaints.

  • Review 16 (2019-11-15 - Rating: 4)

    Very welcoming and friendly place with many seating options. all staff were attentive and accommodating. the draw seems to be the female staff which appeal to the male clientele. a bit strange to see tight shorts in the dead of winter. not necessarily cheezy or sleazy but there is an obvious theme. snacking on popcorn with drinks was a plus.

  • Review 17 (2024-03-16 - Rating: 5)

    One of my favorite places to grab a drink after work or before a show. Big space, lots of tables and TVs. Would recommend coming down!

  • Review 18 (2021-11-12 - Rating: 5)

    Very cool pub in midtown Manhattan…. We were there early but Looks like it may be hoping later in the day and into the night….

  • Review 19 (2019-01-14 - Rating: 4)

    Great happy hour spot for the midtown office crowd. Front area usually packed, back area usually accommodating. No food (other than salty popcorn to keep you drinking) served, but have seen others ordering from outside and bringing in. Attentive staff and generous pours keep me coming back.

  • Review 20 (2019-03-27 - Rating: 4)

    Nice little spot to catch a drink and hang with friends. Didnt see a food option though...

    Great bar to retreat to when you need a break from the streets of the city! No food just drinks! HUGE selection of whiskey!

  • Review 22 (2022-04-21 - Rating: 5)

    Very neat bar! We loved the decor! We both had some bourbon and it was well priced for New York City. The staff was very attentive even with a lot of people in the bar. Wish we would have found this bar sooner in our trip because we would have visited multiple times.

  • Review 23 (2022-10-22 - Rating: 4)

    If youre in Midtown and want to avoid the high end restaurants and bars in the area, swing in by to the Whiskey Trader! Im almost sure its the only dive bar in a 5 block radius.Come here for:1. Very casual ambience2. TV screens3. Super efficient bartenders4. The decor 😁Seriously though, I love this spot. I come here once in a while for s quick beer and maybe some sports viewing.Great low key bar in the heart of Midtown.

  • Review 24 (2020-01-18 - Rating: 4)

    I like this place. The music is cool, sometimes they play old school which is really dope. They have some really nice couch-like chill spots all the way in the back. Only thing, my whiskey sour tasted a little diluted 🤔.

    Great spot for drinks. Good playlist and service.

  • Review 26 (2018-02-07 - Rating: 5)

    Great place free popcorn. The bartenders were cool I wish I would have grabbed their names. The crowd was more of an after work spot. Drinks were on point. I will be visiting again.

  • Review 27 (2017-03-21 - Rating: 4)

    Convenient 55 & 6 location to unwind without breaking the bank in a casual, man cave atmosphere. No pretenders here. Just people looking for a good pint, sports TV and eye candies behind the bar.Try the Jameson and pickle juice combo. An eye opener...

  • Review 28 (2019-05-06 - Rating: 5)

    Not just a dive bar! TJ and Ray, BEST bartenders and best music! New favorite spot outside of Jimmy McSweeneys Irish Pub near MSG.Coming back for an Old Fashion! Honest guys that make me want to send my friends here!

  • Review 45 (2024-05-15 - Rating: 4)

    This place was recommended to us by the hotel - my whiskey sour was very basic and not what I expected from a place with “whiskey” in the name, and more than a dozen bourbon options, but the draft beer was good and the server was very friendly.

My wife was on the Gin and after rest and relax we found ourselves very comfortable in the Trader.Metro station for us was on the 59th.The Trader is a must go in the area for some drinks and having a good time.I don’t have photos, I promise the next time I will take some photos.

    This is a nice place to go if you are just looking to get out a drink. Period. They do not serve food of any kind outside of popcorn (was a little disappointed by that). Overall a good experience but it was a little too loud to have a conversation with some colleagues after work. Waiting service was great.

  • Review 108 (2017-08-01 - Rating: 5)

    Great place to grab a quick drink with coworkers after work. Kind of dark but I think that adds to the allure. Plenty of seating/couch/stool options and if you have a larger group, they can get you a private room upstairs which is nice if you are closing a deal or with a group of like 6-8 people from work. No food though. just free popcorn.

  • Review 113 (2016-04-10 - Rating: 4)

    Run-of-the-mill basement bar in midtown New York, but the vibe here is often better than most other bars in the area. The staff are usually upbeat and happy, and the space makes it easy to relax. The beers are decent, as is the whisky, but best to buy bottles rather than get beer on tap.I got snowed in here once during a blizzard and its one of the best nights out Ive ever had. Ended up in Times Square having a snowball fight with fellow drinkers who Id met that night.

    My waitress made my first experience amazing. We had a big group and she managed our orders and cleaned up in between like a pro. I would go back if i had her as my waitress again.

    Great downstairs bar we stumbled on to. Try the pickle and a shot ;).

  • Review 137 (2016-11-14 - Rating: 4)

    For the area, relatively cheap and cheerful. The back area with the couches is the best. But for a whiskey bar, youd think they would have real rocks for ice.

    The place was very welcoming but I would love to talk about the people! During holiday season my husband was visiting me in NY city (he is currently overseas in service). We stop by at the Whiskey Trade to warm up with a couple drinks. Atmosphere was charming, we had a pleasant night. By the time we arrived to a subway station I have realized I don’t have my wallet. The only place I could leave it was a bar. We came back. I looked at the bathroom for a possible drop out the bag, we asked the bartender. Nothing was found. I was extremely upset. There was not even a dollar of cash but two of my licenses, School, work, military IDs and pleeeenty of cards. There were also pictures of my dad who I lost just a year ago. I was broken by those pictures disappearance. Couple days ago I have received UPS package with my wallet. Whiskey Trade was a sender. I would love to thank very much to workers and Managment. I am so happy. Even though I have renewed the most of my documents already, I returned my Daddy pictures to the album. At once, I returned the belief in a good people. People who generously spent their time and money to help a stranger. From my side I promise to keep a chain of kindness to people who may need help these cold days. God bless you and your families!

    Solid dive bar in an otherwise oasis of wannabe upscale midtown joints. Good for large groups and those not adverse to communal popcorn

    This place is everything everyone says: good cheap dive bar with short skirts and loud music and free popcorn! I dont miss all that very much. Maybe Im getting too old for frat style boozing. Still fun!

    Good post-work happy hour bar. The seating downstairs towards the back feels a bit awkward, but the service is good. Theres free popcorn, and a beer pong table downstairs near the bathrooms.

    Real nice spot .. just walked in off the street.. but felt comfortable

  • Review 161 (2013-03-28 - Rating: 5)

    First, your reviewers. We are a couple of 50 year old Geordies from the NE of England. We loved the place, and were gutted we only found it on day 5 of our 5 day trip to Manhattan. Happy hour 1-4 with Bud Lite $3 a pint. Great music (Benny Benassi, Deadmou5), lots of plasma screens for sport. Dont be put off by the walk down the stairs or the dark lighting, very friendly bar, we will be back when in Manhattan again.
