About

Bar: Full barBest nights: Tue, Wed, Thu

The West Village's Knickerbocker Bar & Grill has been a neighborhood mainstay since 1977, known for its jazz-fueled evenings and charcoal-grilled T-bone steak. This family-friendly spot draws a mixed crowd of locals and visitors, blending old New York club vibes with reasonable prices. It's fine dining but never stuffy.

House-made pastas and desserts are crafted on-site, and the full bar keeps things flowing. Reserve ahead, especially for live jazz on Fridays and Saturdays. Tuesdays through Thursdays are ideal for a quieter meal. If you're craving classic deli fare, Katz's Delicatessen is a short walk away.
