P.J. Clarke's

P.J. Clarke's Restaurant & Bar Since 1884, this venerable New York institution with its colorful history has entertained the famous, the infamous and everyone else who appreciates the ambiance and food of a real saloon. The pay phone is still "Out of Order", the broken cigarette machine remains broken, and the ashes of one of our favorite patrons, still reside behind the bar. Our little terrier faithfully watches "the joint" while P.J.'s famous jukebox plays Frank, Buddy and Sting. The wives' beer window stands open and anyone can say "So, set 'em, Joe" where Johnny Mercer penned "One for My Baby". Democracy reigns in the dining room as the newsmaker rubs shoulders with the CEO sitting next to the ironworker. We welcome you for another 120 years (at least) of good food, good drink and great conversation.

You can still experience the original P.J. Clarke's on Third Avenue in New York City, but if you are enjoying a show at Lincoln Center or visiting downtown Manhattan, the same great food and hospitality can be found at our Lincoln Square and Hudson River locations. We also hope you will visit us at our Washington D.C. and Sao Paulo P.J. Clarke's and Sidecar restaurants.
