The Four-Faced Liar Albee Square Reviews
As another British Gentleman “across the pond”, this is very close to a pub from the motherland. Solid drinks and good vibes! Ignore that Super Bowl reviewer ‘Fran Kaufmann’, you shouldn’t have superbowl in a pub. Go and get yourself a pint!
This place is a vibe. Gives off a divey feel which I love but it's a chill pub. The bartender & security working the night I went were so friendly & welcoming.
Maybe the best pint in town. Great neighborhood bar.
I got trashed here and had a good time. Cheers! 5 stars for food even though didn’t eat anything but sounded like the table next to me thought theirs was dank but was hard to hear in there cuz I was trashed and it was loud. This review is given with 50% confidence. This review may be a mistake….
They don't serve food. It is a local bar with bunch of people from the neighborhood and regular customers. Friendly, typical downtown local bar in the West Village
best place in the west village. Guinness best in the city
I had the time of my life at this place. They play the best music and the bartenders act like you’re old friends. The bartender, Mike, was especially warm and welcoming and made me feel like I was right at home in Pittsburgh like Cheers. 10/10 would go again.
A Great Irish Guinness Pub, met a Marine standing outside who was a bartender about to open up and I stopped by next time I was in the area. Great hospitality and regulars and the NA Guiness was a satisfying as a tap poured Guiness on a warm spring day.
I discovered this place when coming to see my boyfriend. And it is the best place ever, the service, the atmosphere it is all you wanted in a bar. I've had 4 Guinness while completing my raids on Diablo Immortal. Don't cause drama please everyone is chill. Oh! Did I mention it is BRING YOUR OWN FOOD? So yeah have drinks and bring your take out. The best! Certainly visit. Eric is the best bartender ✨️ (totally biased because of his Star Wars shirt lol). All of the bartenders are amazing and will treat you right. Give this place a shot you won't regret it ❤️
Good people, prices and drinks. A place where people care, especially if you get to know the regulars and the bartenders. They are always helpful, friendly and cordial. This weekend at the Four Faced liar was great and packed with some great ladies I've met. Always a good and relaxing time at the four faced liar.
This is a dive but just what we were looking for to have a beer before a show. Quick. Even though it was the day of the pride parade we were able to find a table. No food
Not a “dive bar” as described by earlier reviews. It has more of a nice pub vibe. No food, but you can bring in outside food. No happy hour. Would be a chill spot for a dim lit drink with friends but has only two tv’s in this small space so it’s not quite a sports bar either. Definitely a favorited bar by locals and friends and the atmosphere is cozy and pubby. Decent place to grab a Guinness.
Bar is fine, but the security guard outside is absolutely rude. He should not work here
Bartender just plain rude. Not even a busy night, just not welcoming at all. Thought he was in a conversation so was waiting patiently when he was apparently ready to take the order so the first thing said when entering was “First time at a bar?” in a really condescending tone. He was continually like this throughout the night. Open and available bar tables weren’t cleaned off for other folks to talk for an hour+. The kicker for me was when two young women were being intensely harassed by a drunk patron he just served, he was just having a cigarette and did nothing, hailing a ride or anything. Overall, just pretty uncomfortable space with too much country music and service that would make me never come back.
AVOID at all cost. The staff is so rude. Went there for the Super Bowl with friends and they kept playing golf on purpose! When I nicely asked the bartender if he could put the game on he said he would only changed whenever he wanted. We left. Also, the bar is dirty - I’m a local and there are many dive bars in the area that do a much better job and are friendly.
This bartender refused to give us water. Not only illegal, but incredibly rude and inconsiderate. He said he wouldn't give us water because we hadn't ordered anything yet. We were going to get water and then order a drink, but he just blatantly refused, so we left thirsty. Can you imagine being so mean spirited you deny women water just because you can? Absolutely ridiculous
