The Pony Bar

New York

$$$$

PERMANENTLY CLOSED

The Pony Bar on 10th Ave traffics in American craft brew-- that means no bottled beer, except for Budweiser and Bud Light ("We believe draft beer <em>is</em> craft beer," its website proclaims); no imports (go USA!); and selections from only the finest producers in the country. The quirky, casual pub atmosphere is a great spot to indulge in your inner-beer-geekdom. While situated smack dab in the midst of the Hells' Kitchen clamor, The Pony Bar itself is rather chill -- an under-the-radar gem you'll want to keep all for yourself.
