Profile

If you're the type who likes to play games while you drink, here's another one for you: shuffleboard! Serving the beer-and-ball community since 1967, Nancy Whiskey is one of the only bars in New York that offers this particular mechanical distraction (bank shuffleboard). The amicable, heavy-drinking working-stiff crowd is happy to let you play as long as you partake sufficiently in the wide range of cheap, intoxicating beverages, which start flowing at 9 a.m. sharp (noon on Sundays). By the end of the night, some of the old-timers look as if they need to be carted out in wheelbarrows. And don't worry about losing your motor skills—everyone else has.

Casual, comfortable and super friendly

I was walking around Tribeca one afternoon and happened upon this small neighborhood pub and decided to check it out. It has one deck table overlooking the sidewalk and a bird's eye view of the park across the street from a bar stool. The regulars range from artists to businessmen, cops and firefighters depending on the time of day or night. Melissa, the day bartender is great and really knows her stuff. The place is casual and friendly and there's serious shuffleboard mania. The food is non-fancy standard old school pub grub. Don't expect chocolate martinis but yes, there's Blue Moon. And, Melissa might make you a Sex-on-the-Beach if you ask her nicely. I love this place.

Barry is the Best!

The Nancy Whiskey is a fun bar with the greatest bartender! Gets pretty packed later at night, gets to be standing room only, but it's the best. I always take people who are new to the city there...and "natives" who've never heard of it!
