It's a dive bar! That's all I can say. No credit cards, cash only. They got some games to play if you want to keep busy. Prices are very fair for the area. I'm not sure what food they have although I did see someone eat wings so I guess they serve something.

There are certainly some things I miss about being back in an office. One of them (and for better or for worse, it's very high on the list) is happy hour with coworkers. By extension, I also really miss collectively trekking to a nearby bar to properly send off a coworker on their last day. Which means that I really, really miss heading to someone's goodbye party at a place like the Patriot Saloon even though I had never spoken to them before in my life and quickly befriending them. Better late than never, right? The Patriot Saloon is not where you'd end your night, but it's a great place to start downing a couple of PBRs at 7:30 PM. Where else can you find such cheap beer in this part of town? It's a two-story dive bar (with decor that has, uh, a lot of personality), so it shouldn't get too crowded. Cash only.

So happy to see this bar open after Covid! Nothing fancy but cold beer and a shot. I would not recommend for a first date but who knows, might be a good test. usually friendly staff that are all usually a little drunk. rest rooms may need some love but hey, takes a bit to get back to normal after being closed. check it out.

Many people wonder, "what makes a patriot"? Is it loyalty to ones country? Is it living up to the ideals of the founders of the nation? Or is it really cheap booze, bartenders that leave little too the imagination and southern trimmings? If we're going by the Patriot Saloon's definition, it's definitely the latter of the 3 options. While it seems that every bar in the entirety of Manhattan has moved to high priced, ultra luxe cocktails, there's still a few places that have still resisted the tide. Often times, these crack-slippers are more unique and worth going to if only for the ambiance. Patriot Saloon fits the bill, decked out in what can be charitably described as southern hillbilly, something wholly unexpected North of the Mason Dixon line. While the decor may lead to some askance looks, the cheap shots and drinks definitely help straighten out those looks (if only because the rest of your body is now tipping to the same side as your eyes). Whether here for pregame, post game, or all night partying this bar can more than accommodate. Maybe the speakers could be a touch quieter so conversations could be heard, but otherwise call me a Patriot for the Patriot Saloon

Patriot is just...perfect. It never ceases to amaze me how cheap everything is (ex: bought a vodka soda for me and IPA for my friend for a whopping $8 the last time I was there), how fun the soundtrack is, and how friendly the people are (but not in a creepy way). There's also a little food menu if you're in ever in need of a snack and don't wanna step out. Just can't really go wrong at a place with a gator hanging from the ceiling.

It's precisely what you'd want and expect from a dive bar, but with more over-the-top decor and a nice vibe! One of the bartenders once challenged us to drink a whole pitcher of beer in one go, for free. Didn't take her up on it because we're lame. Prices for pitchers of beer and bar food are excellent, especially for the area. You can get a pitcher for as low as $10, most expensive is around $20 for Guinness. Only downside is that, like most dive bars, it's cash only and the ATMs require a surcharge of about $3 per withdrawal. So all you have to do is remember to bring a wad of cash and avoid the giant alligators hanging from the ceiling.

I mean who doesn't love a dive. A lot of people, that's who, but if you're pro dive, then you'll appreciate the Patriot. This place has been around forever, walking in the door clarifies that immediately. The bar is old, the music is old, the booths are old, and of course, most of the dudes who come here are old. Not that I am complaining about that in anyway shape or form, as I appreciate a dive for what it is - a crap hole where old folks come to get cheap beers and listen to music they appreciate. this place also serves up food, but a quick trip into the bathroom lets you know that it's probably not a good idea to eat here (I like dives, but food poisoning, not so much). Come here for crazy cheap drinks, and a throwback to NYC of yesteryear (authentic old men included in the price of admission).
