Great bar, friendly staff, great mojitos and cold beer. Visited it in 2017 and 2019, will be back when we can travel again.Ger and girls, Dublin, 🇮🇪
Fun spot with a decent choice of drinks and very reasonable prices. Theme is Buffalo, N.Y. and Buffalo sports, which I enjoyed as someone who is from that region of the state. Lots of places to sit and pool and darts if you want to play. Overall good experience :)
Bar and staff are great. They bill themselves as a Buffalo Sabres, Bills, and Chicago Cubs and Bulls place. Will say that Chicago Cubs fans were not very friendly to us Buffalo people. Id avoid it off theres a Chicago event. The bar staff was great but Chicago fans booed us out of there for giving us two TVs out of fifteen. Not cool, Chicago, not cool, totally rooted for you guys before you rooted against the Sabres for playing at the same time. Will no longer be hoping for an end to your dry spell. Buffalo fans, definitely avoid if theres a Chicago event. Actually felt hostile and worried Id get in a fight.
This place is a great sports bar. Its not too big, but there are plenty of TVs around the entire place. This is a Buffalo Sabres bar, as well as Liverpool, and a few other teams (I think Chicago as well). I came here to watch hockey playoffs and it actually wasnt even on- the bartender was very gracious and put it on a few of the TVs! Good selection of beer and generally attracts a nice crowd, although being a sport bar, it does get rowdy. Definitely worth a visit if youre in the area and cant find a bar thatll play your game...
Very friendly bartenders. Good drinks. Small place, but nice
We were looking for somewhere to escape the cold and happened upon this comfortable and welcoming sports bar. It may have been happy hour, but the rum and cokes were cheap and strong. Best of all, the bar man was really friendly.
Love the bubble hockey. Hate the fact that they dont have a kitchen... That doesnt mean there isnt bar food to be ordered, it just means that they have a little frier in the corner to whip up fries/wings/etc. Makes the whole place smell like fried goods and also makes you wait longer for simple bar foods.
Great local bar, especially if you are from Upstate/Western New York. NYC home of the Buffalo Bills and Buffalo Sabres. Great atmosphere for hockey in general. Serve Labbatt Blue/Blue light, which is rare for NYC. Cool place to go to relax, have a brew or two and watch sports.
Someone that has to post a review using the words really really needs to take a look in the mirror. This is one of MANY bars in NYC that does not have a kitchen, which is cool because there is a binder with ANY type of takeout food you can think of in the area, have you ever had Chinese food and Beer in a sports bar? Well now you can, AMAZING! This is also a BUFFALO SABRES, BILLS & Chicago Cubs bar if you are in ever in need of finding a place to watch the game. The owner will be seen hanging out at the bar, so stop in and say hi, its def. a change from the upscale, I love it
Sabres fans will love this place - always have the games on (unless the Cubs are in the playoffs). Slightly dinghy, and the food is meh, but cant beat the feeling that youre watching the game in a Buffalo bar.
Went there to watch a game. Had a drink in the first quarter, and although I did not feel like having another immediately, the bartender rudely told me and my friend that if we didnt have another wed have to leave as this place costs money to run. -I dont see how us watching the game there was costing them money, but apparently it was. Will not be going back - nice digs, awful service.
Always a good place for a nightcap!
Buffalo Sports bar. Had a good time watching the Sabres match their longest ever win streak at 10 games on Tuesday night. It was a playoff atmosphere.
Plain sports bar with small TVs. Playing hockey, basketball and baseball when we went. Crowded on most nights. Drinks are a bit expensive for a dive bar. Bring cash unless you would like to spend $20 on card. Bartender was nice.
Lovely Irish drinking spot. Helpful staff. No late night food, but you can bring in sushi from the market nextdoor. Staff are super cool
Gotta give it to the bar tender excellent guy put the dodgers game on for me and played any music I wanted for sure ill be back on my next trip 👌💯
Stopped in to watch a game and had a good time. Drinks were reasonable and the food was good. The menu is limited, really focused on bar food that is done well.
Nice sports bar, plenty of games, sports. had a huge variety of different beers as well. Nice to be here with friends and spending quality time.
Amazing atmosphere for sports fans. The bartender was a bit rude, but it was quite a rush, so understandable stress. Very much a Washington Caps fan bar!
Rude owner told me my money was no good there because I didnt buy a drink . I had a bought a ticket for a UFC event there
Love Kellys on a Monday and love it on a Saturday night amazing vibes,good bartenders,and excellent service must vist when in the L.E.S my new go to hockey break since the flying hooked closed down
Great place to sit and watch sport. Fun and casual atmosphere.
Its an Irish dive-sports bar in Manhattan, pretty small place, The service was great and the wings were really good, they had cans of Genny.
Great place to watch a NYY game.
Bar staff are friendly. Staff are accommodating for TV sport requests. Would definitely recommend!
The place is a blast for all occasion. Great bartenders and really cool place. Its a must!
Watched all hockey games here last season - great bar!
Great place! The bartenders were excellent and one of the best pints of Guinness and Murphys outside of Ireland!!
Great place sports bar! Specifically the hockey!! Mattias slinging slap shots and added bonus
Awesome people, awesome staff, great atmosphere and the wings were delicious 10/10 would come again
Small place but the drink prices are decent. I dont see this place as a sports bar but more like a bar.
Very random bar but fun. Went for Santa con and enjoyed my time
Exactly what it needs to be. A divey sports bar in Alphabet City. Go there for games and reasonably-priced beer.
A great place. Very authentic. Good food & drink. Loved the place.
Great bar for Bills games but you walk out stinking of fried food.
Perfect laid back sports bar to support your favorite ice hockey team! C-A-P-S! Caps Caps Caps!
Busy during a game but good fun low key sports bar
Great dive bar that you can actually watch sports at in the village
Alyce is probably the worlds best and sweetest bartender. Great spot.
They will have ALL the sports on, drinks were solid. Bartender will take care of you.

2022-06-19If you’re looking to catch a hockey game but you want the charm and lack of pretentiousness of an Irish pub, look no further, you’ve found it. Kelly’s is the quintessential Irish pub, and you can watch all sports games here, but it’s particularly unique in its affinity for hockey.

2022-03-25Visited Kellys Sports Baron a Saturday night to play ping pong with friends. We were able to reserve a table for a hour the morning of easily. The environment was fun, the service for drinks/food was great, and people were overall friendly. It was a really fun place, I wish I knew about it sooner. Thanks Kellys Sports Bar!

2021-05-11Heard this bar is amazing! Huge Caps fan - does Kellys play the game sound over speakers if requested? Caps play the Bruins Game 1 this Saturday at 7pm and I would love to come to Kellys to watch. Thanks for the information

2017-12-30Good to have a place like Kellys. Ample TVs for watching the game. Good crowd and warm staff. Kellys house IPA is a keeper.
Review №9
2020-01-09Have been to a lot of dive sports bars in the area and this was not my favorite. Went during the nfl wild card games. It is a bills bar and it was after that game so maybe that is why my experience is what it was. Was a pretty flat vibe. Also, was pretty expensive which I wasn’t expecting. Not the cleanest either. Other people seem to like it so, again, maybe I caught them off at off time.

2019-11-29Nice sports bar, plenty of TVs, variety of games & sports. Great variety of beer selection, both draft & cans/bottles. Food is kind of limited, but enough if youre hungry. Good service, friendly clientele.
