Located on Third Avenue between 45th and 46th streets, O’Neill’s has become one of New York’s favorite Irish pubs since opening in 1997. Once inside the signature cobalt blue storefront amid midtown’s hustle and bustle, guests are transported to an Irish country bar with authentic pub fare, friendly bartenders and a warm, inviting space including an upstairs atrium dining room. Local residents and celebrities alike can be spotted enjoying a burger and pint including Bruce Springsteen, Jerry Seinfeld, Daniel Day Lewis, Brian Dennehy, Hillary Clinton, Governor Pataki and Gerry Adams.

O’Neill’s Irish Pub is open seven days a week for lunch and dinner. A late-night menu is available from 11 p.m. to 2 a.m. In addition to ten signature half-pound burgers, guests can enjoy Irish favorites such as Leenane Shepherd’s Pie and O’Neill’s Traditional Irish Stew and hearty dishes such as Tipperary Traditional Chicken Pot Pie, Dingle Bay Beer Battered Fish and Chips and Balinrobe Bangers and Mash. A wide range of appetizers, salads, sandwiches and wraps are also served.
