In a city that boasts literally thousands of bars & pubs, one name is legendary: P.J. Carney’s. Since 1927, It has been a meeting place, a haven and refuge for New Yorkers from all walks of life: musicians and singers from Carnegie Hall, telephone repairmen, Broadway stars, journalists, hotel porters, etc. The mix of personalities you find here reflects the vitality of central Manhattan itself. People return here again and again. Even those who leave for other cities and countries come visit every time they are back in town. Why? Because P.J. Carney’s is more than a famous New York Institution. For many it is, quite simply, their home away from home.
