Located on Broadway in New York, Sandbar offers a casual bar atmosphere for patrons attending nearby theatre productions. The venue features fast service and a full selection of beverages including beer, cocktails, wine, and hard liquor. While the location provides essential amenities like restrooms for guests, it is important to note that many visitors have experienced significant issues with unauthorized credit card charges. These recurring billing disputes involving multiple transactions after single visits are a defining characteristic of the establishment's recent history. Consequently, the experience is often marred by financial confusion rather than culinary delight or exceptional hospitality, making it a place where caution regarding payment methods is strongly advised before visiting.

Sandbar Broadway Reviews
Like others, we saw the Lion King in April 2022 and have had multiple sets of charges post (or try to) to our credit card ever since. I've had to cancel the card and dispute all of the extra charges. If you are reading this, I would definitely NOT use a card here. They didn't even charge us back in April... The first charge showed up in August, very sketchy.
I went to Minskoff theatre in April to see Lion King with my family for my twins 16th Birthday. I used my card at the bar and have gotten multiple transactions charged to my account in May, August and now September! The charges have now overdrawn my account and I have had my bank card shut down twice! Don’t use your credit card here!
Saw the Lion King at the Minskoff theatre on Broadway in April. My bank contacted me with possible fraudulent activity, as they had charged my card again in August & September. Able to close out the card with my bank, but I expect much more from the bar provided by such a well respected theatre.
If I could give ZERO STARS, I would. Every few weeks since going and seeing The Lion King at the Minskoff Theatre in NY back in APRIL 2022, another drink charge would show up as pending in my bank account. GARBAGE company, do not use a card at any of their facilities or pop up bars. FRAUDULENT ACTIVITY!! Had to cancel my card and get a new one, then also take other steps through my bank to ensure no more charges come through after it's closed.
I watched the Lion King in April 2022. I used my credit card to purchase food and drink. It is now September 2022, and my credit card is being fraudulently charged for concessions. In fact, it was charged last month (August) and this month, and I just noticed it on my card statement. Beware!
Same here, went to the Lion King in April and got charges in Augustus and September (only 6 euros but glad I found all these reviews). My bank is cancelliing the card.
Went to see Lion King in Times Square 4/2022. Noticed 2 fraudulent charged posted to my account 8/2022 and 9/2022. Call your banks and report them!
May 7th My wife and daughter went here ONCE and our card has been charged 28 times. It seems like they are stealing card numbers and running transactions through. Thief's!!!!! Shady, shady business.
We saw Wicked at The Gershwin Theatre yesterday for the matinee show. I don't blame the bartender at the front row mezzanine for being overwhelmed, as she was the only bartender there for so many people. Still no excuse for being rude, mean and having a poor attitude to customer who waited in line and were then treated horribly. My sister didn't leave a tip as she had no money leftover (although my brother and I had just left a tip for her), and the bartender proceeded to raise her voice and yell at her for not tipping.
Do not use a card here - went to see lion King in the spring and repeated charges started showing up months later
Don't go here. It seems like they are stealing card numbers and running transactions through. Closing the card will not help as somehow they force complete the transaction. Shady, shady business.
I am another victim of ID theft. Disgusting that Minskoff would allow this to occur to so many people and do nothing
Soy de argentina. Fui en abril a ver el rey leon. Intente pagar con mi tarjeta de crédito y me dijeron q no la tomaba. Tuve ya 4 débitos q no realice de este bar. Los últimos 2 con fecha 26/5, q jamás estuve en ny. Be carefull!!!!
