Stitch Bar & Lounge

Cheap drinks, cheap and good food, big bar, quiet, good location to transportation. def a fan. will return since I work in the area

Added auto gratuity to a table of four when outside it clearly says auto gratuity will be added to five or more

Not my favorite beers but a very friendly bartender. Very big bar! I had no idea is that big from the street. It would be great to bring a big group of people here

I’m absolutely APPALLED at the behavior of a woman patron and bouncer last night. Some people were watching the NY Democratic debate on TV and one man clapped after a candidate made a point and the man was kicked out! Because he clapped for a different politician than the woman (another random patron) was interested in! It didn’t even look like he had any of his beer. Such a hostile environment, I will never go here again and I will encourage all of my friends in the area to do the same. Stitch Bar just lost a LOT of business!

Was here lunch time for a quick snack and enjoyed the crispy calamari, generous portion, and prosecco. Unfortunately service was mediocre. Barmaid dressed like a costumer, no uniform, lose hair which she constantly touched (unsanitary, right?) and she took my half-​full glass of drink away and still charged full price. uh?
Why? Que paso? Not a happy hour for me.

Came here for an after work happy hour the other day. Didn’t have the food, so can’t comment on that. But the tap lines were not cleaned recently. The draft beer I had (an IPA) was practically undrinkable — very skunky taste due to the dirty tap lines. There’s really no excuse for that. Giving them two stars instead of one due to the friendly service. But seriously, please clean your tap lines.

Decent bar. Nachos were really good. Service was okay, we had to flag down our waitress a few times. Great place for a quick drink before your bus/​train.

What I had: Happy hour drinks at the bar — nothing special worth reporting
Would I go back?: Probably not
Story: Came here for a last minute farewell happy hour for someone in upper management. Place wasn’t overly crowded but was very noisy simply due to whatever was going on, on stage. Bartenders were not very attentive in the sense that they charged the wrong card for a drink I ordered for me and a friend, and then completely uninterested in rectifying the issue. Nothing necessarily made me want to come back to this place — just seems like another sub-​par midtown bar.

Place in the middle of the garment district. Great venue for a party. Amazing wings & great happy hour!
Love this little place. Classy, elegant and affordable.

Went here for an after party following a holiday party. It was pretty packed by the time we got there, but we managed to snag ²⁄₃ of a table and overspill into some of the seats at the bar. Apologies to the two ladies who were the ¹⁄₃ of the table, I’m sure we seemed obnoxious to you. Although really, who goes to a crowded bar at 10pm on a Friday night for a quiet dinner? Anyway.
The server was friendly and adept at handling orders from a large group of people who kept circulating. I only ordered mixed drinks, which were pretty standard and hard to mess up. The place looks really popular with the after-​work crowd and people on their way to and from Penn Station. Not a bad place to hang out if you happen to be in the area (which honestly, I wouldn’t be if not for this party).

So I stopped in for happy hour where the bartender was completely out of line. We asked for another round … And screamed at me from across the bar after I told her that her portions were smaller than the last… maybe she felt like that’s okay since the place was empty. I felt bullied. Tiffany… If you don’t like your job let nick the manager know so that he can hire another barista that will enjoy her job and treat patrons better. I am disappointed. Please give the European bartender happy hour Monday’s she is pleasant and clearly loves her job.

Stumbled upon here on a saturday night, waiting to hear from some friends. Strangely the place wasn’t crowded.
But worked for us as we had some good drinks without having to wait.
Place is way too dark. But apart of that everything else was great.
Didnt try the food, but did lool good on table next to us.

I am here for a surprise party very cool place our assigned bar tender was outstanding ths bar space is quite large i will certainly visit there again.

I hesitate to be overly critical of a place, in case my experience was atypical, but I wouldn’t even risk trying this joint. I didn’t eat here; I met a friend for drinks in mid-​January. However, the quality of the food could never compensate for the disgraceful quality of the customer service.
First, I requested a sea breeze with Absolut citron, and I explained that it is Citron vodka with equal parts cranberry and grapefruit juice. I was presented with a virgin cocktail, and was polite in asking for a corrected one. The waitress returned with what appeared to be straight Citron vodka diluted into a glass of water. Whatever it was, it was not what I ordered. Not even close. This is a drink that most experienced bartenders should know how to make, or at least have the presence of mind to reference if they don’t. And restaurants in this part of town should only be hiring experienced bartenders.
Finally, I decided to make everyone’s life easier and order a cocktail off of the menu. I finished the cocktail, and my waitress, who seemed overwhelmed by the whopping 4 tables she was servicing, copped a major attitude with me when I politely asked for another drink. She threw her hand in the air, and with an exasperated sigh and roll of her eyes, she said «well, what are you drinking?»
I flagged down another waitress and requested the manager, who evidently was not present or otherwise unavailable at the time. There should always be some form of authority available to listen to formal complaints. Always. At the least, someone could have given me the manager’s contact info. This waitress happened to be very sweet and sympathized with my frustration, but she stated an inability to help due to being new.
I’ve worked in kitchens, have a thorough knowledge of cocktails, and have been a server in a diverse array of environments. I’m pretty understanding when it comes to mistakes, slow service, and an overwhelmed server. However, nothing excuses an inability to concoct a sea breeze with Citron, or my server’s attitude. I sure hope that nice, new server was a positive influence on the rest of the staff with her professional conduct, or found a better place of employment.

Needed to meet a couple of people for drinks after work on Wednesday. Stitch was close enough to the Javits Center and made good sense.
This bar is classic old New York. It was dark, a tad musty, layers of paint — well, u know the deal. There were three of us for drinks.
Our waitress was 5 stars and then some. She is probably the best waitress in New York. She knew when you were ready for another drink and had it out in seconds (literally).
We chose to have some appetizers (quesadillas, tacos, fried mozzarella sticks, etc.). the bar food was fair to good, basically hit the spot. The drinks were potent — precisely how I like them.
I will definitely return to Stitch. I like this bar and am glad Unilocal assisted me in finding it.

Just a bit nicer than some of the bars in the area. Probably a good spot to hang out after work. I am giving them a break since they have only twelve taps.
But I stopped for a martini which was well made and worth $ 12.00. Bartender was professional, friendly. I will be back for a cocktail but may go somewhere else if I want a draft.

Situated in the mass transit neighborhood of Penn Station, Port Authority and all the MTA subways. It’s a good central spot for a bar for events and after work. Large area with a long bar with plenty of spots to hang out and good bartender service. Around the sides of the bar you’ll have tables and chairs with waitress service.
Nice happy hour prices with beers on tap and large screen TVs throughout to watch the local games. You’ll find it heavy in the bridge and tunnel crowd for commuting. Go for the sampler platter which has a nice variety of chicken fingers, wings, quesadillas, and mozzerella sticks. Great for groups and for chilling the day away.

Came back here for lunch and had the wing special. It was 20 wings for $ 10. I havent had good wings in a while. I was happy to get outside for lunch and was looking forward to it.
It was a small lunch between a coworker and I. We ended up splitting the wings he had 10 hot and i had the 10 mild. Just the right amount of wings for each since we bothhad a small bfast. Definitely hit the spot. I recommend the place for its wings and happy hour prices. The ambiance is great, place is clean and neat.
I’d come back again :)

Came here yesterday with a few coworkers and really enjoyed my time at Stitch. The place is good if you are looking to catch up with friends without feeling the need to shout every word. Our waitress was friendly and very on top of our needs.
Food: we shared a few appetizers, the calamari was good but I can’t say I was amazed by it, perhaps the sauce was too bland for my like. However, the nachos were something else, really good and I would recommend them any day.
Drinks: I had the Lingerie specialty cocktail and was made to perfection. I asked for sweet/​semi sweet drink and this was right up my alley.

I’ve come here for happy hour and appetizers as it’s close to work in Herald square. The drinks are good, they have a wide selection.
The bar staff (behind bar) are nice but the waitresses are not. Last time I was here with a group of coworkers we got drinks at the bar sat down then sat at table, the waitress came over and gave attitude because we did not order from her. We ended up ordering more drinks and appetizers but her service was not friendly. She also would not Let us split the credit cards as there is a minimum of $ 10 which was understandable but she couldn’t been nicer in the way she told us or advised beforehand and ask if we were splitting or putting on one bill.
Next time I will just sit at the bar and not take up a table.
