Took a trip up to Riverdale for lunch. Met a friend up there who recommended Au Beal Bocht cafe. An absolutely adorable little place. A short walk from the subway.(Up a very steep staircase) Very charming place. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Had to wait a bit for a table. There was a large party in back that I believe took up a lot of the seating this place has. Food was great. We had the traditional Irish breakfast and the omelette special they had. Delicious! Brunch came with a free drink. We got the mimosa. It came in a medium size ball jar! It was yummy and left me with a nice buzz.
I totally recommend this place. If you're up in Riverdale or wanting to visit definitely stop here for your meal.
When we ever come to NYC again, we will visit this great Pub again! And maybe we meet Joan again!! The dusty 45s are unbelievable!!! Greetings from Germany
Tasty brunch options and good coffee! Hubby raved about his blueberry french toast.
Open mic nights and live music on certain nights.
We love Beal Bocht for its atmosphere, good drinks, people, staff, decor. We have been coming here on and off for years. We have had lunch and dinner and the food has always been good, nothing fancy but comforting and just right. But today, a Sunday, we arrived during Brunch and we were excited about the opportunity of something different and of course the complementary Mimosa. I ordered the traditional Irish breakfast (1/2 portion) with eggs over easy, my husband ordered the American breakfast with eggs over easy as well. Our orders arrived extremely fast but (and I wish I took photos), the eggs were overcooked, the home fries completely dried, almost burned, unappetizing and not to be eaten, my husband's bacon looked old and dried. All looked as if it had been cooked the day before and was reheated in the microwave (I am pretty sure this is what happened!). Thank goodness the mimosa helped the food go down...We told the waitress when she came to clear out the plates that the home fries were absolutely horrible, she agreed that they looked overcooked and apologize but did not offer to rectify the issue. I will never have a brunch at Beal Bocht again, too bad, they have a great opportunity to make it very special. I will come back for a drink, music and atmosphere. But really, I am wondering how it is possible to mess up eggs and bacon!
What a wonderful restaurant and bar/pub. It's filled floor to ceiling with ambiance. You get very personal service from the amazing staff (sometimes in that uniquely Irish way).
The food is better than the traditional basic pub fair. They have a great dinner menu with Shepard's Pie and the lot. Today I had the Chicken sandwich with a side of fries.
It was very fresh, and the bread cracked slightly as I bit into it. This is a must for a toasted bread.
If you're in the neighborhood, please, please stop by and enjoy An Beal Bocht. They have both indoor and heated outside seating!
Always a perfect place for a perfect pint. No tvs to interfere with conversations. Big smiles and friendly faces from servers who appear to love their jobs. This Mainer who visits NYC frequently believes it is the best pub in the city.
The best and most authentic restaurant with a stage in Riverdale near Manhattan College.
Great Irish pub, fantastic atmosphere. Live music throughout the week. The staff is phenomenal. They’re frequently busy so table service can be a bit slow, but it’s always good fun—my go to neighborhood spot
