Profile

Even if they’re partial to baseball caps instead of stovepipe hats, NYU students need a place to hoist beers in the presence of elk horns, goat heads, and taxidermied pheasants. Hence this Bleecker-strip watering hole covered floor to ceiling—and a very high ceiling, at that—in Wild West paraphernalia. Amid the saddles, wagon wheels, and prints of steam-powered locomotives, it’s easy to forgive modern anachronisms like the internet jukebox and the pool table on the mezzanine, since (let’s face it) most of the folks chomping wings and swilling Mike’s Hard Lemonade are too young to know what happened in 1949, much less a hundred years prior. Just look at the framed collection of fake IDs on the wall near your Victorian-style settee, and you’ll know that this history trove and drinking trough is the setting of many a lesson that’s all about “my first hangover.” — Daniel Maurer

Pleasant Surprise On Bleecker

After shopping on Bleecker Street we were looking for a place to have something to eat. Passing 1849, my friend said her NYU student son went there with friends to hang out or watch a game on the big screen TV's. Curious, we looked at the menu. There was the standard bar food along with some unusual items for a place like this, such as penne a la vodka. The prices looked good. Seeing the red velvet couches sold us. A nice young woman waited on us. I ordered the penne. My friend ordered barbecued ribs with garlic mashed potatoes and a salad. We ordered macaroni and cheese and chicken wings as appetizers. The wings were great and the mac and cheese was like homemade. When the main course came we were shocked at the huge size. Everything was delicious and nicely presented which surprised us for a bar on Bleecker Street. And the penne a la vodka! As good as any Italian restaurant. I would recommend this place to anyone going to the Village, but get there early for a good seat and to avoid the younger evening crowd.
