Whether you’re grabbing dinner before a show or just want to soak in the city’s energy from their outdoor, street-side seating, PJ Clarke’s is the perfect place. Famous for its legendary burgers, hand-picked seafood, and hearty comfort food, the menu also features steak frites, lobster rolls, and craft cocktails. It's no surprise this spot is a frequent backdrop for TV and film productions. Grab a seat and enjoy a true New York experience with some great food and a lively atmosphere!

Dubbed “The Vatican of Saloons” by the New York Times, P.J. Clarke’s is also one of New York’s greatest old-school bars, serving delicious cocktails and ice cold beer. Established in 1884, the original PJ Clarke's is one of the oldest saloons in NYC! Now an ideal spot for drinks or dinner before the Opera at nearby Lincoln Center.
