The Draft House

Meh. Ordered off grub hub. Had ordered a margerita pizza with prosciutto added and tangy wings. The pizza was basically just regular cheese (not mozzarella) with prosciutto on top, it was supposed to have mozzarella and tomatoes and basil. Wings were ok. Delivery was fast at least.

Everyone likes to go where everyone knows your name. This is your awesome neighborhood beer spot visiting over 6 months before i actually decide to write this review… Lots of beer on tap from all around the world. Multiple times to see if its true i brought jetsetters friends traveling from Germany, England, Belgium and Brookyn lol and they didnt wanna leave when i offer to take them to some other places. They wouldnt they said because it was like the beers at home lol. Great then i felt like i was in an authentic draft house. And most awesome we are in Harlem!!! So cool to have that international feel in one of the coolest place in the world!!!
Venue: Cute small place but very cozy.
Ambiance: My local and international Unilocal community people in Harlem make sure to check it out :)
Personal: I love this place. I enjoyed the golden monkey IPA and love the margarita personal pizza im literally having whenever i visit lol.

Pizza is absolutely delicious! Price is just right! Came here looking for reasonably priced great pizza in the heights and found this spot right on Broadway next to my fav Hair Parlor! Really good size pie for the price and most importantly, taste! Would highly recommend!

Went in with my husband for dinner around 8 last night (Saturday). I didn’t experience bad service like other Unilocalers have complained about. We were greeted immediately and sat quickly. The waitstaff was attentive and the food came out quickly. Our pizzas were good and we will come back again for brunch or to try the burgers.

This place should be in the Guiness Book of World Records for The Longest Wait for Mediocre Bar Food in History. 30 minutes for a burger, 45 minutes for eggs Benedict? On a not so busy afternoon? Just ridiculous. And it’s not like after waiting for half an hour you’re delivered a Minetta Tavern or Shack Shack or even Old Homestead worthy piece of beef. It’s just flavorless blah on the plate, with a side of pickles. Seriously, that cow never grazed in the sun or drank from a mountain stream. The waitstaff speaks their own language. «Your order will be right up!» delivered with an innocuous saccharine smile translates into Five more minutes… probably. I have no idea what the problem is between the front of the house and the kitchen all I know is that there is one and its huge. You, hungry consumer, will pay for it – with your irritation and more importantly, your hunger. Stay away.

I’m totally coming back. The staff was amazingly warm and friendly. The food was great, although they’d run out of the salmon I originally came for. The pizza was huge. I couldn’t finish it. The organic chicken was well seasoned and the fries were crunchy. They have a good variety of beers available too. I was shocked to see some nice Belgium options. The pricing was pretty fair for the quality. The atmosphere was upbeat and there is a good area for outdoor eating. I’m happy.

I like to go to this spot when I chill w my main posse (they live near this find eatery) and get lit and turnt, but in an adult setting with good treats. The people who work here are super chill. Outdoor seating too! Woo party time!

No MAM. Just moved into the neighborhood and wanted to grab some easy protein and veggies somewhere close.
Walked in and had to ask someone already dining to see their menu after not being acknowledged by anyone. I would’ve left but I was just getting over a horrible a viral infection and had barely any energy.
I order the ribs with a large mixed green salad. The ribs were supposed to be from the grill and I’m pretty sure they meant George Foreman knock off because besides a slight drying out, there wasn’t a grill mark in sight let alone any grilled flavor. And then these «grilled» ribs were literally drenched in bbq sauce that I’m sure came out of a industrial sized can. Yum!
But let’s talk about the cut of meat because there wasn’t even a slight trimming of fat or anything. I’ve had cleaner cuts of ribs from Friday’s on a drunken night in college. Very Cro-​magnon.
And then my lovely mixed green salad which was actually a mixture of spoiled and fresh arugula accompanied with 2 cherry tomatoes, each cut in half of course, and 1 of which had a white creamy substance all about the body. And the dressing! Nothing compliments that peppery taste of Arugala like basic EVOO and black pepper. Yum again. NOT.
I can’t imagine that I’ll ever be going back. So disappointing.

Have been here a few times in the evening for drinks — they offer a nice selection of beers on tap but I don’t consider myself a regular or ever really compelled to write a review.
BUT, I just had brunch for the first time today here and was pleasantly surprised! The salmon benedict and the waffles were really yum and looked beautiful. The service was great (everyone was very friendly and attentive) and there was no wait to be seated.
If you’re looking for a less crowded alternative to the Grange for brunch, give this a try!

Ok place, had been over there for brunch when it just opened and decided to come over for brunch today with my husband and daughter.
Waitress met us at the door and without saying any words offered to sit anywhere. We asked if we could sit in the back and if we could have a high chair and the answer was just precious: «We don’t have high chairs here because we don’t have babies here!» Oh, so welcoming! Than she just turned around and walked away…
Do I have to say that after this we left?

The food is decent. Burgers were satisfactory, but soggy fries. Rustic décor.
Service was absolutely awful for a Friday evening and it was slow at the time I went. We sat down and order drinks and the server never came back until we signaled. The server thought we weren’t going to order food and didn’t even bother to ask. Another server delivered the food and argued condiments were given without even checking. It’s irritating when it’s slow and the people working go to work just to socialize. Service is likely better at the bar. Lazy servers. The only tables getting decent service was a table (1 table) near where they were socializing.
Way too many options in Manhattan to keep going here. TYRON PUBLIC HOUSE is way better. Amazing food and awesome service and ambiance not to mention a better selection for draft, bottled and cocktails. THE GRANGE also better all around and in the same area as well as HOGSHEAD TAVERN, limited food, but more of a quality over quantity type place.

Draft house hosted my 25^th birthday last Friday and it was so amazing. Service was on point and everyone loved the atmosphere. I had the veggi pizza along with others and caprese salad to accommodate guests, which was delicious. Drinks were flowing and all staff worked with us so well to plan an event for 25 people. Great outdoor and indoor seating for any occasion-​date, dinner, night out, sports, etc!!!

I’m hesitant to give one star. My brother knew right away he wanted tangy wings and ordered with the waitress. She nodded somewhat confused (she didn’t realize there were tangy wings on the menu), he repeated the order to her and asked if it’s available today, after she glanced at the menu she said «oh yes sorry». I waited to order a cocktail, my boyfriend got a Lagunitas on draft which he says was delicious, my brother an old fashioned, which he says was watered down. I was going to give it a chance but the bartender was eating pizza at the bar the whole time which turned off my mood for a cocktail even more. We ordered two pizzas one sounded delicious with potatoes and sausage but the potatoes ended up being chopped French fries and the crust had the burnt scraped off of it. The other was with prosciutto and walnuts it was pretty weak, so close to being good but no crisp whatsoever and again somewhat scraped. The best thing we ordered was my Lamb burger cooked to order came at a perfect medium– the fries though were extremely lacking. The best description I could give: somewhat crispy, greasy cardboard. I won’t come back
Here but might consider ordering a lamb burger to go
No fries sub salad. Oh by the way, she forgot the wings and when we mentioned it to her she was extremely confused and did not remember the first conversation my brother had with her when we sat. She wasn’t too happy that she had to add it to our order it was really weird. My bro and bae like them a mildly sweet orange marmalade– too vinegary for me.

I stumbled on this place by accident. I live in the neighborhood and it’s probably only one of several trendy restaurants in the area. Ambience is very relaxing, rustic, and «homey.»
Their food is pretty good. I like their happy hour (reasonably priced well drinks).
Overall, staff is very nice. :)
It is definitely becoming one of my neighborhood favorites! I highly recommend it.

Nice spot especially the way the bar rolls around and you can sit at the end of the bartenders side, but this place can be pricey. I went for happy hour on a Wednesday and only wine (including sangria) and certain cocktails qualify for happy hour – not the beers which most people come in for especially being that it is «the draft house». The sangria wasn’t the best which I was expecting being an American (I think!) bar and the food can be pretty pricey.
Also, my partner ordered his favorite bourbon which came in a very small glass, ⁵⁄₈ of the way full (to be very exact) and it had no foam as it should when it’s mixed so it did not taste great.
The beer was good although I do wish if we’re part of the HH.

While I wasn’t the biggest fan of the food, the atmosphere and the drink selection was great.
I was craving a beer and wanted to watch a basketball game so I went to the Draft House because it’s near my apartment and I’d passed by a few times and never actually went in. It wasn’t crowded but there was a good number of people there and the vibe was very chill.
I got a couple beers and was very happy with my selections. I was hungry so I decided to get a margherita pizza. That wasn’t the best decision, while it was large for the price ($ 12) it wasn’t cooked very well and there were like 2 pieces of basil on top…
All in all it’s a pretty decent place, I’ll definitely be back for a glass of wine or a beer but I probably won’t get food.

5 stars for the beer selection. 3 stars for the food.
The beer selection is incredibly good for any bar and it changes regularly so go here often! They also have plenty of other drinks readily available including a sangria.
Yes the pizza oven is open now. The pizza crust needs a bit of improvement but overall the food here is quite good — burgers, fish, pizza toppings, fries — all very good and make a for a good lunch or dinner.
Great addition to the area. I’ll be back!

Came here twice, both on a Saturday evening.
Ambience: Décor is rustic and simple. Crowd was diverse in race and mostly below 40. They play 80s and 90s music after midnight.
Service: Waiters and bartenders were attentive and polite. If you’re not sure what beer to get, they will gladly let you have a taste. They only have one bathroom so the line can get pretty long.
Food and drinks: They have over 10 beers on tap in three different size. We had the risotto and mozzarella balls and it was delish. We also had the bison burger with fries and it was quite juicy.
Overall, good addition to the neighborhood.

The bartenders and staff get five stars for their friendly attentive service. The beer and wine selection is quite varied for both on tap and bottles. The sangria is delicious! There is an interesting cocktail menu but the prices for those are a tiny bit steep.
I’ve only had the food once, a deep fried grilled cheese, but will definitely be back to try the brick oven pizza and explore the Italian-​American driven menu further. Honestly, knowing that the same people own Anchor restaurant across the street make me more inclined to have food at the restaurant and continue to turn to Draft House to enjoy a few drinks with friends.
Overall, The Draft House delivers a good time whether you go alone or with a group!

This is a newly opened place so it’s still a work in progress, but I like most of what I see.
Came here with friends to scope it out as a potential venue for beer club but it’s kind of small so I don’t think that would work out. However, if you’re in the area and want a quick bite and some great beer, this is a good place.
First, I love the décor. Lots of wood and metal and cool lights. Very nice, comfortable vibe. With the windows in front open, it really gives the place a warm, welcoming feel. The beer list is very good. They have something for everyone.
Food is currently limited. We had the suppli and salted codfish. They were out of patatas, which was disappointing and the pizza oven isn’t installed yet, so food options aren’t the broadest at this point, but we liked what we had.
There’s a sign with an arrow that says «beer garden» but that’s just for display. There’s no garden. I think having that is a bad idea because inevitably everyone asks «where’s the garden?» and to respond «there isn’t one» is kind of a lame answer. Take it down.
Our server was very nice.
I’d definitely go back here again. It’s a pretty quick trip from midtown, although it’s an uphill hike from the A/​B/​D trains. However, it’s very close to the 1 train (although that’s a slower trip)
Thumbs up!
