I had such a delicious lunch here! Service was great and I would love to go back here!

Went with family with younger kids (place was little “adult” atmosphere) but seated us right away so very friendly staff. All the food we ordered were good. I’m not sure what drink this was but very tasty, one of the best mix drink I have ever had!!! Give it a shot!

We have an enjoyable time whenever we come to this restaurant. They are in a great location near bryant park. The food is always high quality no matter what you order.

I recently visited Croton Reservoir Tavern in Manhattan with two friends and had a pleasant experience. I appreciated that the place was located on the first floor, making it easily accessible. The atmosphere was quiet and comfortable, despite TVs displaying sports programs (they were on mute) and quiet background music. The sparsely populated venue allowed us to converse easily without having to raise our voices. The staff were nice, polite, and friendly, contributing to the overall positive experience. The food menu wasn’t extensive, but it was adequate for a bar. The drink menu, on the other hand, was impressively long, featuring pages of various beverages. I particularly liked how the drinks were categorized by country, such as Japan, and separated into types like beer, gin, vodka, etc. Drinks were available both by the glass and by the bottle, which provided flexibility depending on your preference. The sizes of the glasses were standard. The prices were a bit on the high side, but that’s expected in Manhattan. My only gripe was with the high chairs and tables, which were uncomfortable for a shorter person like me. It would be great if they could add a few lower tables and chairs for more inclusivity. Overall, I enjoyed my visit and would recommend Croton as a great spot to gather with friends or colleagues for a drink or a catch-up.

Excellent spot for drinks. Great cocktails & lots of options to choose from. The ambiance was super chill & the staff was very friendly. They also have an outdoor area and it was such a good vibe, especially on a nice spring day(:

I came here for a speed dating event on Valentine's Day 2024, which was being held in the cellar. I was hungry. Before the event started, I inhaled a Croton Crunch spicy chicken sandwich. It was delicious and filling. My belly was happy. It cost under $30 with gratuity. Service was good and attentive, but the place was almost full so there was a lot of noise. I prefer quieter places, but for extroverts who like to yell, this place is for them.

Wow. This bar is NYC in a bottle (excuse obvious pun). Great atmosphere, quiet, understated, roomy yet clubby at the same time. Awesome location, great wines, mind blowing whiskey and Bourbon list (try the Boyntons bourbon on the rocks). I like that the music is background rather than in your face and great 80s-to-now playlist (special props for Blue Oyster Cult pirate recording). I like that the food is limited in scope, but well executed, I like the bar staff, friendly, knowledgeable, efficient, engaging (thanks Kosovar Lee for the experience). Highly recommended if you like what I’ve described.

Looks like a typical cross town bar but has a great atmosphere and exceptionally well prepared food. Not a big menu but the selections provide for a nice lunch or an excellent dinner. Somebody in the kitchen is chef trained, a surprise in what you might think is just a small bar. Huge liquor selection and knowledgeable bartender.

My daughter and I were having a pre birthday dinner. The place is lovely. We particularly recommend the Brussels sprouts!!! Delicious.

Early dinner after an enjoyable matinee. Never been to Croton but a place we wanted to try! Host/waiter greeted us upon entering and seated us quickly. Great service and even more wonderful food!! We will be back when we’re in the ‘hood!!! They also have a nice, long bar with plenty of seats. TVs everywhere. Plus, a downstairs bar (it was closed) but I’m pretty sure they use for private gatherings.

Been here a few times, but we generally skip this place in favor of better restaurants in the area. Last time we visited it was quiet but the staff were inattentive and they were out of some things. Maybe we caught them on an off day, but we chose not to return last time the option came up.

Nice place in the craziness of Bryant park! Service here was good. Beer line can use some checking as we had a couple flat lagers in our group...but all in all good place to visit if you’re in the area

The food is so bad here I do not recommend 🤢 The servers here were very nice, but god that ravioli was disgusting and overpriced- I should have known when the description said it has peas in it. The sauce and the mushrooms tasted funky and the texture was grainy (?). Can’t say how the drinks are though
