A truly Irish bar with Gossip and drinks

It was in the late 1840s that the concept of Irish pubs reached America. During the Potato Famine, the Irish people fled to America and brought with them a culture of pubs that became a popular phenomenon for years to come. The bar stool grub, the whiskey cocktails, tasty bites, a Guinness tap and a great conversation in a riotous crowd, whether it’s St. Patrick’s Day or not. All this became the definition of an Irish pub. Since then Irish pubs have opened in every corner of the world with over 2000 of them in New York City alone. Such an astounding number can confuse many and make it difficult to differentiate a real watering hole from a less authentic replica.

Gossip Bar - The Best Place In Town To Hangout & Gossip!

A real Irish pub is still a quiet kind of place more like a community gathering spot. People of the neighbourhood will drop in a few times a week, just to see what’s happening. There is no loud music, only traditional music, guitars etc. that blend in the flowing conversation. The perfect Irish Pub in New York, much like Gossip, is meant to be all about conversations over a few drinks. To keep the authenticity alive a lot of the pubs still keep the 150-year-old décor. In a place like that, you will meet staff that would have been there for as long as thirty-forty years.

With Gossip Bar hosting families, friends and couples every day, with Football Sundays and bottomless brunches, it is the true Irish pub experience one needs in New York. With Irish beers on tap and the Gaelic burger and delicious shepherd’s pie, Gossip Bar gives you reasons to come back over and over again. To get the best bar food and drinks in NYC, you need to visit Gossip. Just order your Smithwick’s tap and choose from the long list of bar food. Their bar food is so good that whenever I have to order bar food online, I end up sticking to Gossip.

When it comes to whiskey cocktails, like a true Irish pub we have a long list. We serve The Irish Ass, a perfect blend of Jameson and the freshness of ginger and lime and also a Gentleman’s Agreement. Made with the Gentleman Jack whiskey, it is concocted with amaretto sour and freshly squeezed lemon juice. And when these lovely cocktails are paired with hand-cut fries and a Gossip burger you have the perfect combination of bar food and drinks in NYC.

What I love about drinking at Gossip is the new kinds of people I meet here. I often come here for game nights, and find the place bustling with locals. The multiple screens and the casual setting invites many in the neighbourhood for a public get together. There are a lot of interesting tourists who also end up visiting Gossip because of its great location in Hell’s Kitchen. Surrounded by hotels it is often a dine-in choice of many. Being Irish I used to miss a lot about the public gathering style Irish bars around me, where people come together and greet strangers and dine with loved ones. With an amazing ambience and an even better choice of tasty food and drinks truly authentic to my hometown, Gossip has always turned my day around.
