Went here at happy hour for a couple beers, asked the barmaid if I could try a beer very friendly and accommodating gave me a taste and I realized the beer was room temperature. So as good barmaid checked another tap also warm, we finally found a cold tap and the beer was skunky and tasted terrible. There were several fruit flies and in general looked very run down and not clean or sanitary at all. I was waiting for Jon Taffer from bar rescue to walk in at any moment. I would not recommend this bar to anyone and I definitely would not eat here just based off how many flies and how dirty it is. The only reason I am giving 2 stars is for the barmaid she was trying.
Honestly I really like this bar the drinks are great and so is the food. They try their best to follow social distancing but this is a very busy spot since everyone wants to be here. Its hard obviously because young people think its funny to be disrespectful and not follow the rules which annoys me but not the bars fault at all!!! Also the bartender Brittany is amazing and wonderful
Didn’t even step inside and the bouncers were already yelling at us, apparently showing up at 930 before everyone else is to much stress for the bouncer that he has to yell at 3 people to get in a neat and orderly line, then as we are leaving the same bouncer stops us at the door and yells at us because we are blocking the entrance( just so everyone knows there is once entrance and one exit both in the same spot) I know people can be rude to bouncers and it’s not their job to deal with rude and mouthy people. However right from the start not a single word said to the bouncers and they came off rude and disrespectful. Such an unprofessional establishment, if you hate bouncing and your life so much that you’re going to be disrespectful to every customer, maybe rethink your profession
Fun popular place to be and when they have live music its always a blast. Depending on who is playing therell be a different crowds but they are usually pretty cool. Ive never had the food before but the drink selection is good and even when there is not a band playing its still a pretty cool place to be
Dont take the reviews saying the Elf pop up bar is a scam seriously. Its $40 and you end up getting 4 dishes of food, a dessert and a drink. What more do you expect for $40? Was each dish a full size entrée? No but I left full. The place is decorated really well and its a fun night out.
Really chill bar to come to when you are in the area, theres a few other bars nearby but this is always our first choice. Fun atmosphere, cheap drinks, and good local live bands that play or do covers. I love that theres a bar area in each section, and that you never really need to wait to get served a drink. I wish your card could come up on all 3 sections though so you dont need to go back to where you opened up the tab, but other than that its great!
We arrived at 6:45 to get a table for something to eat before the band came on at 8:00. There are very few tables in the place and we were lucky to get the last one available. We didnt get served our food until 7:50 after the waitress realized that our order was lost. We had tracked down our waitress 4 times. Too bad she didnt check on our order the first three times we asked. The sandwiches were very good or maybe we were just starving at that point. Thankfully, we were not charged. Beers were good and both beer and food were reasonably priced.The band was great.
Good specials! The last Friday afternoon that I went they offered 2 for 1 of select beers and free barbecue (hot dogs/ hamburgers) with purchase. The French fries were really good and so were the nachos!.They also have great live bands on Friday nights and the staff is very friendly.
We decided to go to the Nutty Irishman to feed my nana one night and had a great meal. The service was excellent and food was great but there was this guy with dead bovine eyes in the bathroom that was a little too handsy with my 7 yr old so we got out of there asap. He kept saying how much he loved my sons lips, etc. It was disgusting. Apparently hes from a band that plays here frequently, and they allow him to stick around. Idk. I hate for an incident like this to have happened and wish the bar would do something anout that Joe Cumia guy hanging around there.
Respectfully. They draw a young crowd at the bar and do have a nice broad beer menu. However the appetizer foods offered were mediocre at best. Being in my 50’s its not a place I would return for anything but maybe an afternoon beer. There are many better places in Farmingdale for anyone out of college.
Strange place. We were in the area and decided to go for dinner. In searching we saw that they had a salad bar and since most of them have closed (Ruby Tuesdays etc.) we decided to check them out. Well, they dont have a salad bar...or anything else that shows as their menu when you search for them. Even the waitress couldnt explain the missing salad bar or menu items. It almost seemed like they copied someone elses menu. The food was only okay. The waitress was okay. Other than the disappointment in not getting anything that we planned on, this place is only okay. Try it on your own decision. They do have live bands that start at 8:00 & 10:00 (I think), so maybe thats what their draw is.
This is the bar to be at on Friday/Saturday night in Farmingdale.Cover bands vary in how good they actually are, but always play songs everyone knows. Theres a decent sized dance floor thats always crowded. Theres always a lot of bartenders, so youre not standing around waiting to order a drink. Prices are pretty standard and theres a cover to get in. I would recommend here if youre looking for more of a high energy scene. People there are usually in their 20s
A fun place for live music, djs dancing, drinking, and more. They typically have reasonably talented (and occasionally very talented) cover bands playing the greatest hits of the 90s/00s.The crowd ranges from 21-41 depending on the night, and the prices arent great but arent as bad as some dance clubs, etc.
Very nice atmosphere and live comedians. Their food was okay but not great and the bread rolls were stale. We had a good time anyway and some fun, it just couldve been somewhat better if the music and microphones volume wouldve been a little lower than it was. We had better times in the past here and hope for better in the future.
Overall the experience is great. At times tho there were female bartenders complaining that I didnt give a tip. Meanwhile the moment I was going to tip her, she was complaining about it to another customer saying see this is what I get. ... After that Im glad I didnt tip her. She spoke too soon. I bought beer for 3.50 willing to give tips but since she complained. I changed my mind. Other than that its a good place to come to.
Super crowded for the most part, your shoes will get destroyed from the floor being ridiculously sticky from drinks constantly being spilled and changes are someone will spill a drink on you due to the overcrowding. Other than that it’s your typical College Bar scene filled with a bunch of drunk college kids having a good time
Went in the later afternoon for a quick drink, the bartender was excellent! I told him what I typically drink and he got close with the first try and dead on with the second. Had the pretzel and o-rings too, both were awesome. Looking forward to heading back here to watch a game.
Elfd Pop up Bar is a scam! The food is terrible and drinks are watered down. They make you pay ahead of time and the event is nonrefundable !! They are robbing people for the amount of money they are charging and the service that is given. $300 table shouldn’t be eating beets salad from a paper plate . Extremely Disappointed!!
Looks like a nice place, but the smell of stale beer is overwhelming and the bar top is dirty and sticky, probably because of the obvious lack of napkins and coasters. Ordered a rocks drink and a tap beer, no head on the beer at all that took 10 minutes to get. One bartender at 8:10 on a Saturday night? Overall I am underwhelmed.
O El Amor was their musical talent for the evening. The masked musicians hit it off. An excellent night of entertainment!! While the place is kind of cramped when they keep the back room closed off until 30 minutes before the band took the stage, the entertainment was great.
The place was good. We arrived around 7:45pm on Friday and We pay $10 Admision for each person because they have Live Music. The band play country music from 8:00pm to 10:30pm and for Our surprise another band star to play at 11:00pm that band play 90s music. We enjoyed being their.$5 per coors light - Good price !!!I think you can go and I have fun with your friends their.
Extremely cheap beer with crazy good happy hour specials, but dont expect anything crazy. Decent selection, but it is never that cold. They often give out free samples of their apps, which are subpar but again super cheap. This is a dive bar at its best, so you know what you are getting into. One of the few affordable places still on the strip, and you never get hassled if you linger.
This site is my first choice restaurant. Of all restaurants I know I favor it most. I never miss an opportunity to go to visit this restaurant. everytime I want to go to a good supper, this is the place that comes straightaway to my mind. very good and all sorts of food and a large menu.helpful staff, and agreeable atmosphere. Also important, the cost is reasonable. I suggest this spot with no hesitation.
Went in for the Wednesday burger special. Place was pretty empty but still was going to try it because of Newsdays review. Order s beer and wife ordered a Coke. We ask about the special and the server said she didnt know about any special even though it was right on the wall. She then went and asked the kitchen and they said no special. Ask for the bill and was charged 10 dollars. The special was for a burger, fries and beer for 9.95. What a rip off.
Came here for lunch as we did all of last year while working over at old Bethpage; unfortunately Nancy was no longer the bartender and the service was probably the worst I’ve ever received at a bar before. Bartender was on her phone texting the entire time and we couldn’t even order bc of it. In addition the food sucked; shame place was the best deal in town and I used to recommend it to everyone who worked with us. Last time I’ll ever do that.
Would be a great place except they discriminate and chose when they want to implement the dress code. “no joggers or boots allowed” yet we sat and watched lots of people dressed the same walk in no problems. The nutty irishman will no longer be getting my business, not for a $10 cover fee. and i’llbe telling all my friends
Terrible NYE experience. Way too many tickets were sold. Waited for over an hour in the freeezing cold even though I bought a 40 dollar ticket. Once I got in I could not even move it took 20 minutes to get from the entrance to the coat check in the back. It was a waste of money I ended up leaving because I could not even move or get a drink. They should really monitor better how many tickets are sold for a big event like that.
Never witnessed racial profiling like this before. Very disappointing watching the only 2 black guys get kicked out by all white security staff, for absolutely no reason.They couldnt even apologize after realizing they were acusing the wrong person. Plus the front bartender that was rude and obviously annoyed she had to make drinks didnt help.
If your looking for a great place to have a party this is the place!! I had my nephews 40th birthday party this past weekend and people are still talking about it. We had the entire back room and were over 90 people. There was plenty of room for everyone. It was a very causal party (bar atmosphere). From the start of planning the party with Katharine, she made the whole process so easy to plan. Very helpful and her suggestions worked really well. When I arrived at the party, Katharine had made sure every decoration and table was set up beautifully. The perfect party planner and very attentive. I couldnt have done it any better myself.The catering menu had plenty of food options to choose from. Everyone raved about the food, especially the penne vodka, chicken francaise and what there known for, Nutty Irishman barbque steak. The 2 bartenders Anthony and Kristina were great. Very attentive and personable. They handled the party with such ease. As far as the servers, we had Joanne, Eileen and Katharine. There work was incredible. Always had a smile, very personable, very attentive and making sure everyone had food including making sure the couple of lil ones we had got there chicken tenders delivered to them personally. Ive had many parties before ie catering halls and restaurants but this one was by far the easiest one yet. The staff at the nutty irishman are truly exceptional!!
The food was not good. Asked for the wings to be dry with sauce on the side ao it would be crispy....it was not. Suppose to have bleu cheese amd celery with wi gs...it was missing. The tortilla soip did not have enough flavor in it. There was not enough wait staff for such a busy place. Asked for water 3 tomes, never got it. Wont be going nack
This could be your favorite place or not, depending on your crowd. I look like a white crow going there semi dressed up. People roll in there in dirty jeans and pajamas and uggs so it is literally nutty in there. Unless its your clang. You may feel like an overdressed person at Walmart. Nevertheless dj plays modern dancing music and remixes it well. The dj shifts with a band by hours. 11pm dance music. By 12 its a rock band.
Cant tell much about this place cause I went to see a couple bands thats it wasnt crazy about them taking my drivers license ID and scanning it to a computer system not sure what they going to be using that information for but otherwise service was good and the drink prices were OK the bands were awesome

2022-03-19The place was surprisingly big. They had good live music and a dj in between the bands sets. The food was good although we only had fries and beer cheese. The staff was in good spirits even though it was St. Patricks Day and it was crowded. There was a $10 cover to get in but the coat check is free. My only complaint is I wish there were more chairs.

2021-01-27If you have the opportunity to attend one of their themed pop-up events, TAKE IT! My friends and I went to the Harry Potter brunch for my birthday, and we were not disappointed. The food was great, the drinks were flowing, the staff was INCREDIBLY friendly and helpful, and they decorated beautifully. Characters came around with trivia questions and it was just an overall magical experience, Im definitely interested in going back for more events like this.

2022-05-21Worst experience ever!! I’m 67 yrs old… went here because it sounded lively & fun. No one offered to find a table, ok. Sat at the bar, read the menu….the barmaid stood with her back to us . When younger people came to the bar she waited on them immediately. I will never go back again! If you are over 30….don’t waste your time!

2022-02-26The bar was alright but $10 cover per person on a random Friday night when the place is nearly empty is ridiculous. Most I’ve paid anywhere outside of New Years
