We were wandering around aimlessly yesterday looking for a bar to watch the World Cup game and took a peek at their craft beer menu and apps. Decided to give it a try and were pleasantly surprised with how awesome this place is! The bartenders were super friendly and inviting, the craft beer selection is amazing and they had a great $5 happy hour beer selection, and the duck confit poutine was fantastic. Next time we’re in the area we’ll definitely be stopping back here again! Awesome spot!
Fools Gold is my favorite place for craft beer in NYC.
Love the vibe, love the folks, love the food, love all the tvs, and of course- love the beer selection.
27 beers on tap and always some stellar offerings. Hoo Aah
So I must say, I came during the beginning of happy hour after searching everywhere for a good vibe. Everywhere was empty. I came here... No difference. Could be because of the pandemic.
Anyways, I settled and I regret nothing. The selection of beer, the food choices, and the staff was good. Eventually the place became lively. Maybe I came early. But regardless, I'm glad I stopped in. The tacos were a bit over price but the we're REALLY good. Below are the fish tacos.
I recommend this place for any beer enthusiast but after 7. 5 stars easily.
Great beer selection at this bar. If you like 'good beers', you won't be disappointed. At least 30 taps, plus good can selections to add to that. The bartenders are cool and easily approachable (...what's up Wayne & Sean, LoL). As far as food goes, I haven't tried most of the things on the menu, BUT, they DO have above average wings. Usually, 'wings are wings', but these wings are fantastic. I dare you to try them.
Additional amenities include...
TVs
Board Games
Dartboard
Dog-friendly
Nice atmosphere, not too crowded and not too loud. Spotted some boardgames although I didn't try any. Bartenders and servers were all very kind. Large selection of beer on tap.
Deep craft selection. The menu was listed on Untappd, but not up-to-date (eg I went because the Untappd menu said they had Alchemist-Focal Banger, but they didn't have it).
I came with a large group. Making a reservation was easy peasy. Drinks were great, food was good (I especially liked the pineapple/honey chicken wings), and the staff were all friendly and kind! I saved this location on my maps, definitely a good spot to hit up again.
Roger is an excellent bartender and is available on most weekday days. Other bartenders are so so. Beer selections are superb and run the range. Usually 2-3 excellent craft IPAs.
Love it! Friendly and helpful bartenders and staff! Great selection of beer, pocket friendly prices!
A vast list of drafts to choose from. Good music, vibes and service, and they have a nice selection of board games to chose from. Favorite bar in Lower East Side.
