Watch the Game Near Bryant Park
Croton Reservoir Tavern has seven flat screens and three 100 inch projection screens, and we open at 11:00 am on Saturday and Sunday with the kitchen running from the same time. We are at 108 West 40th Street, one block from Bryant Park and a short walk from Port Authority, Grand Central and Penn Station.
No reservation needed. Walk in.
Can You Put My Game On?
Yes. We carry out of market games, so if your team plays somewhere other than New York we can usually find it. Ask a bartender and we will put it on, and turn the sound up if the room is with you.
There is no house team here and no fixed sound policy. Whoever is in the room decides.
Saturday and Sunday Hours
Doors open at 11:00 am both days. The kitchen opens at 11:00 am too and runs all afternoon, so there is no gap between lunch and dinner.
Saturday we are open until 2:00 am for college football through the late window. Sunday we serve until 10:00 pm, with the kitchen until 9:00 pm.
Where to Sit
Upstairs is the fifty foot oak bar and the main dining room, with screens through both. Downstairs is The Speakeasy, a separate room with its own bar, which opens up when the main floor fills.
Groups are welcome. If you are bringing more than eight, call ahead on (212) 997-6835 and we will hold you a section.
