| Desmond's Tavern has been operating
as a traditional New York Irish bar since 1936; it is the fourth
oldest continuous operating bar in Manhattan. Its customers have been
mainly New Yorkers working and living on Manhattan's east side. Such
notables as Paul McCartney, Linda McCartney, Shane McGowan, Kevin
Costner and Forrest Tucker have been seen at the bar. Veronica Lake
was a waitress here in the 40's.
We serve nine different brands of beer and stout
on draught and over a dozen different brands of beer in
bottles,
depending on time of year.
Desmond's is open 7 days a week, with live
music every Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
You can find Desmond's at 433 Park Avenue South
between 29th street and 30th street, just 3 blocks from the Empire
State Building (see Map).
Desmond's is easily reached via subway - Take the #6 train to the 28th
street stop - You will see our familiar green sign when emerging from
the subway exit! |
