Laura and I, along with some our closest friends, are huge 90210 fans, so we’re very excited that today marks the official 90210 Day (on 9.02.10, get it?)! We take our 90210 viewings quite seriously (it used to make for a great hungover Saturday or Sunday afternoons…although recently SoapNet has been screwing things up and [...]

Since moving (back) to the Upper East Side, I’ve been on a quest to hunt out new go-to spots in my neighborhood. Sometimes I get a hankering for pub food, so finding a decent bar with a good burger was something that appealed to me. Everyday I walked by Genesis Restaurant & Bar, and after [...]

A few weeks back, my friend Dan (who had the pleasure of living next door to me growing up) was in town visiting from Minnesota, and we were trying to narrow down a place to go for drinks. We decided on Hop Devil Grill in the East Village because it was right in the neighborhood [...]

Thanks to NYC Daily Deals, we know that Tonda in the East Village is offering $1 beer Wednesdays throughout the summer. Up tonight? Olde Saratoga Lager.
It’s rare to find a higher quality beer (read: not PBR or Bud Light) at such a discount, so this is truly a steal. You can enjoy your $1 adult [...]

Boats + drinking is easily one of my favorite combinations. That’s why I’m so excited about the upcoming booze cruise from Village Pourhouse! On August 7th you can climb aboard the “Star of Palm Beach Boat” for a three hour cruise filled with Bud Light and dancing. They’ll also have contests where you’ll have plenty of [...]

In the bar-wasteland around my office, a very welcome addition has been Whiskey Rebel on 28th and Lexington. Curry Hill doesn’t seem like a natural spot for such a bar, and isn’t, but I think that’s why it works.
What we love about the bar is the free popcorn or snack mixes they serve and the [...]

July 21st marks National Belgian Day and Petite Abeille is celebrating with some food and drink specials. If you want to honor your Belgian heritage or if you just want to down a few Belgian beers and dine on mussels and fries, then look no further than the 1st Ave and 20th Street Petite Abeille location.
All [...]

The Irish Exit has some upcoming deals that are definitely worth knowing about.
First, if you like free food and drinks (and who doesn’t?), then consider RSVPing to their grand opening party in honor of the new Boom Boom Room (read: a dance room) this Friday and Saturday night. They’ll be passing out free hors d’oeurves [...]

Last year McCormick and Schmick’s offered a great Reel to Reel promotion - buy your entree and tack on another $5 to get a movie ticket. And yesterday we tweeted that over the holiday weekend, they were throwing in the movie ticket for free on top of your entree purchase.
But if you didn’t get to [...]

You can take advantage of the free open bar from 9-10:30 pm by RSVPing in advance. In addition to live music and drinking, you [...]
