As we noted, 1834 Bar & Burger celebrated its VIP Grand Opening Party with free drinks and hors d’oeuvres on Tuesday. But the celebration doesn’t end there.
In the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day, there will be drink specials and a DJ playing all day today. And even better, starting tomorrow and lasting through Sunday, March 21st, [...]

A few weeks ago Laura and I were invited to the opening of the new Johnny Rockets up on 62nd and 1st. Always excited for an event, we attended with her roommate in toe, but we weren’t sure what to expect. Don’t get me wrong, I like Johnny Rockets, but when I’m on [...]

Uncle Jack’s Steakhouse was kind enough to let us know about some weekly promotions they have, and we thought you’d like to know about them as well!

Looking for something fun (and cheap) to do after spending quality time with your family over Thanksgiving? Head over to Copper Door Tavern on Saturday, Nov. 28th, to help them celebrate their 6th year anniversary with a complimentary open bar from 8 – 9 pm. Sounds like it will be the perfect way [...]

Per usual, I was on Facebook for a bit today and saw a deal pop up on the sidebar. These can sometimes be annoying, but in this case I was intrigued. It was a message about Ayza Wine & Chocolate Bar offering one free glass of wine or sangria if you become a fan [...]

This is an interesting one…on Saturday nights, after midnight, you can score 15% off your check at Big Daddy’s Diner just by showing up in your pajamas. I like pajamas and I like discounts, so in theory I like this deal. Problem is, Big Daddy’s can be overpriced so this discount just brings the [...]

The other night I went to dinner with a friend and we topped the night off with a drink. She promised to take me to a dive bar in the East Village (probably not the hardest thing to find) and she certainly kept her promise, thankfully.
Andrea took me to Standings Bar [...]

We at 89th and Broke are huge nacho fans, and to date we’ve found the Wharf’s to be the best. But we’re always open to new possibilities, and it’s our open-mindedness that led Alicia and I to Professor Thoms one night to try their much-hyped nachos.
We enjoyed the happy hour specials ($3 domestic [...]

Friday night I met up with some friends in the Union Square/East Village area. They decided on Finnerty’s at 14th and 2nd, and by the time I arrived they were already friendly with the bartender. It’s a shame that I can’t remember his name, but if you’re interested, it’s his headshot that’s taped to [...]
