The new Stout NYC location on 35th is the perfect mix of sports bar & elegance. The drinks were great thanks to Jason, our bartender. He recommended the mango habanero wings which were delicious. I will definitely be coming back here especially to watch the Knicks!!

This new location is great! the bar is beautiful and spacious, and the perfect spot to watch a sporting event. The bartender Jason was great, he was very personable and attentive. Mango habenero wings were on point.
Great place to watch F1 races live, do yourself a favor and book a table. We enjoyed beers, cocktails and tasty bar food. The Irish spice bag was a good snack (a bit salty but my partner really liked it) and the hot honey pepperoni pizza was nice and crispy. Neither of us could detect any hot honey so YMMV. I'd be interested to try the mushroom pizza next time or the wings.
We were looking for a place to have food and a drink. The security guy surprised us with the warmest welcome ever (quite rare in NYC to be honest). The amazing greetings already gave us a good vibe, and the food didn't disappoint. Delicious place I sincerely recommend!<br><br>This is an experience that was ruined by the attitude of the bartender (greetings to the person, who was trying to protect and act as if nothing happened), the response was like I own something (Telma), taking an order like I'm annoying her, forget about my order, and when I asked for it “okay, I forget” sounds like “and what”. One thing to make the customer upset, another to make it angry.<br>This is a totally different place, from what it was in the beginning.
Response from the owner
Hi Ann,<br>Thank you for the lovely review! I will be sure to pass on the kind words to the team.
Where do I start. If you’re looking for an extra ordinary experience watching the Knicks from start to finish come here. You will be treated with love and care whether it’s being greeted at the door by Evelyn, Aijla, or being taken care of at the bar by Jessica, Thelma, Emmanuel, Jackie, Gaston. Let's not forget the hard working bar back Angel who also always stops to greet you as well with a "lets go knicks!" Always helps to have the very energetic and full of joy Briana there as well. The place is managed so well by yours truly, Freya, who will also greet you warmly with a smile. And let’s not forget the incredible bouncers who keep everyone safe, Lenny, Lou, and Raymond. Stout NYC is where you come and leave all your day to day gripes behind, and just come to enjoy and cheer on your beloved sports teams. This place will always be the go to spot for all sports watching, and enjoying with friends.

Hi Tristan,<br><br>Thank you for such a great review and shoutout to our amazing team! We hope to see you soon.<br><br>Cheers!
This looks like a sports pub vibe. The menu is good not huge and they have a really good drink menu. I got the burrito bowl and added steak, it was delicious. The place is VERY loud, there are multiple TVs playing sports, that plus all the voices from patrons make this a very loud place. Not suitable for kids for that reason. Overall a nice place to drop in for a drink and quick bite.

Hi Kemisha,<br><br>Thank you for your feedback; I am glad to hear that you enjoyed your visit. While we are a kid-friendly establishment, it can indeed get quite loud during busy periods. We always strive to accommodate all of our guests to ensure a pleasant experience.<br><br>We hope to see you again soon.<br><br>Cheers
The cocktails🍹 are really good and the food is quite satisfactory. It's a great place to meet up with friends for a drink after an afternoon of shopping. Highly recommended.

Hi Cherry,<br><br>Thank you for the positive feedback. We hope to see you soon!
I had Jess and Cee as my bartenders, what a lovely crew! Did their oyster deal on Mondays, 1$ per oyster, such a good deal. A great spot for pre-drinks or post-drinks for an MSG game or concert. Been frequenting this spot for a few months now, and have to say all of the staff is stellar, and the food is on par with the service. 10/10 if you’re in the Penn station area, you gotta come here.
Response from the owner
Hi Morgan,<br><br>Thank you for the fantastic review. We are happy to hear Jess and Cee took good care of you. They are a fantastic duo! We hope to see you soon.<br><br>Cheers!
After being ignored at another bar nearby, we decided to leave and come here instead and I’m really glad we did. The difference in service was immediate. Gaston was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we sat down. He went out of his way to help us get connected to the WiFi so we could get some work done from Stout, which was greatly appreciated. The WiFi itself worked very well and made it easy to stay productive while enjoying the space. Overall, great service, a comfortable atmosphere, and a big shoutout to Gaston for turning the experience into a great one. Would definitely come back

Hi Felipe,<br><br>We are delighted to hear this. We will be sure to pass on the kind words to Gaston!<br><br>Cheers!
Busy venue with a great atmosphere. The waitress that served us was great! I cannot recall her name, but she told me she could instantly tell when we were trying to get her attention. She had a great sense of humour and was "on the ball". Loved our visit. I will definitely go back.

Hi Nick,<br>Things we love to hear! We hope to see you back at Stout soon!
We did our company leadership dinner here and had an exceptional time. The food, drinks, service, cleanliness, and atmosphere were incredible. Stout group really knows how to deliver an awesome product and glad to see they did it again at this location. The GM Shane even came up to our party to make sure we were enjoying our time there!
Response from the owner
Hi Austin,<br><br>We are very happy to hear that you and your team had a great experience with us. We look forward to welcoming you back to Stout soon.<br><br>Cheers
This place is a staple for my work group. We grab a drink and quick meal from this place nearly every time we meet in the city — we’ve tried other places but always end up back here. Good environment, good food, good drinks! We’re not even there for the sports, but there is definitely a sporty presence. Reasonably priced as well, which is super important.
Response from the owner
Hi Brenna,<br>Thank you for the lovely review. We look forward to seeing you and the team soon.<br>Cheers!
Come for the sports, stay because the burger changed your life.<br>Honestly, usually "NYC sports bar" = "standing in someone’s armpit," but Stout is actually beautiful inside? The layout is great and the flow makes sense—you aren't bumping into 50 people just to get to the restroom.<br>Great location near the Garden.<br>Love the cobblestone floors!<br>If you have eyeballs and like sports, this is the spot. The TV setup is elite; there isn't a bad seat in the house. Definitely check out the downstairs area too, it’s a whole vibe down there.<br>The staff were absolute legends—super friendly and fast. And whatever you do, order the smash burger. It was awesome. I might dream about it later.<br>Highly recommend!
Response from the owner
Hi John "JV",<br>Thank you for such a great and detailed review. We really appreciate it and we are thrilled to hear you love our new home. We hope to see you soon!<br>Cheers!
We popped in for the Angry Burger, and it blew us away – truly top‑notch! The patty was juicy and perfectly cooked, drenched in just the right amount of buffalo hot sauce and topped with tangy Maytag blue cheese and crispy onions that added the perfect crunch.<br>The service was friendly and attentive.
Response from the owner
Hi Kaveh, we are so happy to hear you enjoyed our famous Angry Burger! Thank you for leaving such a nice review! We look forward to seeing you soon. Cheers!
This is a fantastic place in midtown NYC, right by Penn Station. They have around 20 draught beers, a long cocktail menu, and food menu. The food is the usual pub fare, plus some pretty nice salads, and other items. The food is good even if it won’t blow your mind, but the drinks and the service will. Gaston was my bartender; he was knowledgeable about beer, and genuinely interested in helping me find something I would love, not just like. The other bartender was also engaging. This place also has private rooms/spaces and outdoor street-level seating. Coupled with a fantastic location, this is one of my top picks!
Response from the owner
Hi Sombuddho, thank you for the great review. I will be sure to pass on the kind words to Gaston. We hope to see you soon!
