Hair of the Dog, New York NY

Drinks were super cheap but you definitely pay for what you get, not the best cocktails but great for cheap thrills

Great specials are back. But in evening instead of just viewing Id they now want to scan your Id that can be hacked and a secuity risk as they use a cell to scan so did not go in today 7/7/23 evening. So dropping them from 5 to 3 stars!

Terrible place! Hate my experience in NYC because of this place.super dirty, i saw a rat inside!

Had a very bad experience at this place recently. Went with a group of three of my friends on a Saturday night. My two friends and I got in, but the bouncer for some reason decided that he wanted to reject my last friend. When we turned around to see where she was, the bouncer was physically pushing her and generally being rough with her (very unnecessary considering she was half his size and she wasn't being aggressive) while she was just trying to get our attention and yelling our names so that we didn't accidentally leave her behind. When I went to ask the bouncer what was going on, he said that she was too intoxicated to be let into the bar. We were confused because she is of legal drinking age and was not even drunk, but we left anyways. It seems like this bouncer wanted to exercise power, but it ruined our night and we won't be returning.

Do not go to this place. Not friendly to women. The bouncer decided to touch my girlfriend in an extremely rough manor. Shocking and disgusting.

Horrifying and cruel experience!

First of all, if you want to have a customer spend 6-7 minutes getting their bags checked, get a scanner instead of a guy making you uncomfortable by opening the tiniest of pockets of the bag and asking questions. Any which way, this isn’t even why I’m writing this review.

The guy at the door checking IDs was literally at the top of his voice and misbehaving with my friend. All he wanted to convey was to make us stand on the left side of the entrance and he could’ve said so politely. He wouldn’t stop yelling making authoritative statements such as “ Am I not loud and clear enough, get out of the way”. Not only because this is hospitality industry which thrives on good customer service but even as a human being his behavior was disturbing.

Needless to say we are never coming back but I’m genuinely concerned how have the owners employed such people?

I came here often to watch NFL games last year. Reasonably-priced beer & fine service. If I were a little younger and with friends, I'd probably like it more.

I was with my friends since 3 hours, I spend 50 dollars in drinks, and when I wanted to smoke out, a guy told me that was okay, when I wanted to come back, anybody wanted to let me go in again, I explain I was here for 3 hours with my friend, and anybody wanted to listen to me, and they answered in a bad manner and not respectful at all! So crazy

Kylie was absolutely amazing & super personable Even at 2: 30 am when most bartenders are just trying to close up and get out! Thank you Kylie

Was told by the bouncer I couldn't get in because I was wearing "ripped jeans". Afterwards, I saw several people be let in with "ripped jeans".

Now, I have no problem with profiling people at bars/clubs. In fact I encourage it, cuz we don't want the wrong kinds of people causing trouble for everyone. But the fact that I was profiled without much basis or legitimate reason (I was completely sober at the time of this incident) is why I'm leaving a 1 star review.

Aside from this personal experience, I have gone in the bar once before, and it's a pretty decent vibe. But I feel I have to rate the buisness as a whole because of who they chose to represent and vent people inside.

What a fun place! Wanted to celebrate one final evening in NYC and the Hair of the Dog was perfect! Great music, great DJs and amazing hosts!

Ralph really knows how to make guests happy! Definitely will visit again!

(The bouncers can be less racist though - they didn’t do anything but kept eyeing us suspiciously)

Great food, Im a card carrying member of the regulars. Just imagine how much I had to drink to deserve this honor.

Average across the board in terms of beer selection and freshness of food. They have the screens for the games tho!

Our servers were super kind and friendly. We had a couple of drinks and I really went back to my teens with the playlist they had on. We left before it got too crowded at around 9pm - it’s quite a student hangout.

Great place to have a casual drink during the day and still enjoy the music. Excellent bar food!

One of the best bars in the Lower Eastside. Good vibes, drinks and not too pricey and a good DJ too.

Last night, my group and I visited Hair of the Dog for some drinks and we were blown away by the amazing vibe of the place. The atmosphere was fantastic and it really added to the enjoyment of our night out. The staff were very friendly and accommodating which made the experience even better.

We ordered the APA beer which were perfectly cold and refreshing, just the way we like them. We also had the opportunity to try out their nachos, which some of my group members really enjoyed. Although I'm not a huge fan of bar food personally, I can say that they definitely hit the spot for those who did enjoy them.

Overall, we spent around 4 hours at Hair of the Dog and it was an absolute blast. The vibe, service and drinks were all on point and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great sports bar to visit. We can't wait to come back

Good onion rings! Someone did a big puke in the bathroom in the middle of the day on a sunday

My All time go to bar in the City. Love them beers and food.
The weekends are lit and DJ keeps the crowd on toes.
Wouldn't mind hanging out there again and again.
