★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Great atmosphere and service and pretty decent food. They serve authentic Irish dishes and beer. There’s a jukebox. There’s heaps of seating and different sections too. While the restaurant shuts at 11, the bar is open till way laterOur server Sasha was great as was the bartender Ronan.
August 11 · Natalie PoteThe atmosphere is great, but I think it's just unfair to make the tip mandatory. I'd leave the tip alone, but that just makes me feel a bit ripped off.No info about prices or happy hour.
August 01 · RobertIt was a alright restaurant.Went to see a Broadway show and spontaneously came into this restaurant to grab something to eat.Burger was over cooked and fries really didn't have much seasoning. Beer was warm and fish didn't have much taste.Atmosphere was amazing with the music, people by the bar having a great time, and the pub was beautiful.Waitress needed to be asked to refill my drink as she was sitting up front playing on her phone most of our time there.If you're just needing something quick to eat then its a fine place to go but if you're looking for somewhere to eat that you'll remember-this ones not the place.
May 05 · NatalieThe peaceful atmosphere here makes every meal feel special. The menu prices reflect appropriate value. You'll enjoy the careful atmosphere. Their staff knew exactly what we needed. The place shows creative thinking!
September 08 · Michel NeeWe had a great time at Connolly’s! The place was clean, the staff was super friendly, and the atmosphere was just what we needed after a long day of sightseeing. It’s conveniently located just a 2-3 minute walk from Times Square, which made it easy to find.One of the few spots in the area open until 2am, Connolly’s has a full bar and a solid selection of drinks. I was there with my wife and our two kids (ages 7 and 5), and the staff made us all feel welcome. It’s not always easy to find a family-friendly place that also has a good bar vibe in Midtown, but Connolly’s nailed it.Would definitely come back again!
