Just a Coors, please. Seth played a mean fiddle. Always did like how he used the instruments of man to sing his song to the world. What was he trying to say? Maybe our purpose is not to use speech naturally embedded within us for communication, but maybe we should be using the tools of human experience to tell our story. A picture may be worth a thousand words, but does a word really mean anything? Maybe we should strive to lessen the impact that words have on our life. Sticks and stones may break my bones… and that’s it. Liked the bar slightly askew. — RC

Came here for drinks after work. Was very hard to get bartenders attention even though he wasn’t very busy. Drinks were good though. Didn’t order he food so I can’t comment on that but overall I’m not sure we’d be back, too many other good places in the area.

As I walk up Greenwich, I dial up my Unilocal app to checkin at Fiddlesticks. And what do I find but they offer a FREESHOT just for checkins. It’s lucky I don’t do shots. :) But for those who do, get your checking in going! Meanwhile I ambled up to the bar & spied the taps. I ordered myself a blue moon & headed to the back for the meetup group. Good times were had by all!

The bartenders here are friendly, but it can be a little hard to catch their attention. Usually I go here for a drink and to get take-out, and I like their grilled chicken sandwich and the steak sandwich. The burgers are nothing out of the ordinary. The speciality drinks are definitely worth a shot — the golden delicious and the liberty margarita in particular are really smooth. Always remember to check in on Unilocal for free shots!

Came here with friends after walking in the Halloween Parade, cover charge is $ 10 pp, unless you are dressing as Angels or Devils, then it’s free. Not sure of cover on normal nights. It’s Halloween so the whole bar is packed. A bottled Corona is $ 7 plus tip. Had to squeeze through the crowd to make way to the restroom on the second floor. It’s a bar and that’s it, nothing particular about it. Three stars.

This weekend marks my second time at Fiddlesticks. The first, about a year ago, I attended a party where they rented out the back room. We had access to a private bar and the option of purchasing an open bar wrist band for a reasonable price. I had a good time, but my most recent time was better. I’m a fan of Irish pubs and have a weakness for an irish brogue… Lol. This was up my alley scene-wise. The crowd was young, laid back yet lively, friendly, fun… I like the lights hung around the bar… Creates a nice, laid back ambiance. The decors dated, for sure… but who cares, it’s a chill place. Not a place to go and«be seen». I’ll make sure to return next time I’m in the village!

Only come here to see Emily who is one of the most creative young bartenders walking to Earth… incredibly intelligent and a borderline mixologist with the personality and humor to match… Get the $ 7.00 mini potpie during lunch since it is out of this world and ask her to make you a Nollets Gin/Whiskey cocktail… original and it nails it… The place is expansive… only thing I would change is the club music… the bar has been around forever and looks precisely the same with that Irish Cottage charm… The listing bar which I call«The Titanic» is also charming… all the fare on the menu are truly solid… wings could be spicier.

I went in with a few friends started a tab and stood at the bar for a while. Waited over 10 Minutes for the older Irish bartenders attention who clearly couldn’t handle his section of the bar so I politely tried to get his attention. All I wanted to do was close out my tab and he screamed in my face that I needed to wait(which I was) and then continued to scream at my boyfriend who was upset this guy was yelling at me. Everyone around me was embarrassed for this guy who was clearly making a fool of himself yelling at me. If you can’t handle bartending a busy bar on a Friday night… You should probably work elsewhere. I will absolutely never return to a place I was treated so poorly. :(

Stumbled across this Irish gem in the heart of West Village last night. Such a cute homely feel. Great happy hour, $ 5 for basically anything at all! In West Village! My boyfriend got the steak sandwich which he was thrilled with, almost to the point where I was like«Shut up already!» lol… but luckily I had my delicious falafel burger with sweet potato fries… let me tell you, the Irish know how to make falafel… amazing!!!Sweet potato fries were on point too, tasted sooo healthy! Service was great, the waitress was adorable and even convinced us to try two coktails before we left… which weren’t in Happy Hour but they were so worth it! You HAVE to try the Cucumber Cooler and the Pineapple Captain Mojito. Will definitely be back, so much more I want to try. I’m an oldschool gal who like things that stand the test of time, and Fiddlesticks certainly has, classic food, classic drink and CLASSICFUNNNN!

Well let’s first say if you check in you get a free shot. So be mindful of that and check in! I love this bar, it’s totally a chill bar that you can come to for Happy Hour or on a weekend afternoon to toss a few back and mingle. They have a great HH special that lasts well past happy hour. They have some tables you can sit down and enjoy your cocktail or beer. Also some outdoor seating for people watching on Greenwich ;) it always makes for an interesting afternoon. I’ve never eaten here but I am sure some people do :) If you are looking for a major scene, this is not the place for you ! But if you are looking to have fun with your friends and relax in the village check this place out :) Oh and there can definitely be a crowd here sometimes so be mindful :)

Went late on a Friday night… Atmosphere: Crowded! But not a rowdy crowd. They had a pool table which is what we came for and it was an open table when we got there, which was fantastic. There were a group of people who wanted to play pool, but ended up just taking seductive photos ON the pool table? Needless to say, they kindly gave us back the table as I think they were a bit too tipsy to play. Drinks: Normal bar drinks, but they did have a drink with St. Germain and Elderflower, and any drink with those two guys and you had me at hello. Plus a champagne base? Happy, happy Friday night girl. Food: My friend ordered fries which were surprisingly very good on my fry scale rating. Overall: Good for afterhours chill night.

Fiddlesticks is a popular after work destination for my office. We are located in Jersey City, so with it being a short walk from the 9th street path stop we always seem to find ourselves here. It’s what you would expect, kind of divey with a pool table in the back, stick floors if you stay to long, and tables for people who want to sit in the back and enjoy the crowd. I personally like it here, it’s low key and we always have a good time. Plus, they have good spinach & artichoke dip which i always find myself ordering after 4+ beers. A good after work location but it does get super crowded as the night goes on, so get there early for a spot at the bar!

A divey bar in the heart of the west village. I love it! Fiddlesticks is a dark pub with a bar that’s tilted? This place was probably here for 100+ years. Its very dark inside and the floors, man… You need to be aware of your surroundings. There are dark steps in a few spots that aren’t standard heights. Going to the bathroom is not recommended after a few drinks. There are steps involved, be careful! There are tables for outside dining, I’m not a fan of that in NYC. It’s a crowded sidewalk, get away from me suckas! Inside the pub is decorated with old items from New York City. Horse saddles, shoe shine chairs and old bar mirrors. Its an hodge podge of items hanging around. There is a back room where we stayed, drank and mostly hung out as well as smoking a few stogies outside. Fiddlesticks, nice old place to drink a beer on tap. Can someone explain the tilted bar?

Firstly — Check in on Unilocal for a free shot!!! I love this place. On arguably the absolute cutest street in NYC. Sitting outside makes for amazing people watching. I’ve been here a bunch of times, usually just for happy hour or drinks on the outdoor patio, but last night I got the Fiddlesticks Salad and it was REALLY good. For $ 11 you get a massive salad with avocados, feta, tomatoes, and a bunch of other stuff thrown in. **Maybe get dressing on the side if you like yours lightly dressed, however, they are pretty generous with the dressing. Sometimes service is better than others. Waitstaff is usually good and you always have someone watching your table to make sure you’re all doing ok. They put out sunscreen SPF50 on the patio when its sunny out for customers to use so they don’t get burnt — how cute and thoughtful is that?!

I ordered the buffalo chicken wrap with fries. It was delicious with just the right amount of spice. Their drinks are strong, too which is a plus in my book. I decided to come here instead because Greenwich Treehouse which is next door doesn’t serve food. Fiddlesticks has outdoor seating which would be nice on a warm, sunny day. My fiancé and I opted out and sat indoors because it was just boiling hot outside. Our waitress was friendly and was there when we needed her.

The bartender that was working on Sunday night is awesome. She was able to provide meal suggestions, she was attentive and prompt with her service, and she provided cheerful, upbeat service. Their food portions are huge. I got the Buffalo chicken wrap, which was quite tasty, and it came with fries. I couldn’t finish everything. Oh, the prices are reasonable, as well! Three cocktails, which were made to perfection, plus my food, came out to less than $ 35 before tip! Definitely check this place out. My tastes in cuisine are simple, but quality customer service is paramount to me. It’s a casual place, wasn’t too crowded(though it was a Sunday night), with dim lighting, and lots of comfortable seating. This place is quite big on the inside.

I’ve never been in a bar so crowded in my life! Bah! Where is the fire marshal on a Saturday night? I got elbowed by more bros in 5 minutes than I ever did in college(and I went to a veeeery bro-y college). Everyone in here seemed to be aged between 24 – 27 and was super attractive. Not a bad scene for a Saturday night if you can get yourself past the line and inside, where we were greeted by a girl throwing up in a trashcan. The only upside? Cheap drinks for this part of town.

Yeah, yeah, this place is kind of a dive… so what. I came here one night before heading out to a few other places with friends. We ordered a few drinks for their happy hour($ 5 well drinks, beers, and house wine) and appetizers, and ended up having a pretty good time. The place itself isn’t too much to write home about. It’s a casual spot with where the staff puts on a fake brogue. The venue is large, and is a good place for groups, especially if you’re starting out the night here. I read in other reviews that this place gets crowded on the weekends, but early in the night or on weeknights, this place has plenty of room to spread out. They have a pool table in the back too, which is a plus. The food was shockingly good for a random pub. We ordered the spinach dip and sweet potato fries, and I would eat both of them again in a heartbeat. The dip was warm and creamy, and fries were perfectly crispy – just what we needed on a cold, winter night. I was impressed, and I’d like to think that the other items on the menu are just as good. This place was a surprisingly nice stop on a random night with friends, and I’d definitely stop by again.
