Although the location is 'Times Square-ISH', the Irish Rogue has really become our Monday night staple when a sporting event is on TV. We were almost always here during football season! Located on 44th, just east of 9th Ave, this place is frequented by people who work in the theaters and people who live in the area. My buddy Nate introduced me to this place.
He just lives down the street and mentioned they have Monday night specials. How can you pass up a $3 plate of chicken wings!?!? We sure didn't! On one monday night, they ran out of wings! Hahahaaa! Anyway, what kept us coming back was the fact that there was room to move around, always a place to sit, really cool wait and bar staff, table toppers, and really good wings!!It's hard to describe how the place is laid out. You'll have to check out their website. There are a lot of TVs so you won't have any issues missing a play. There is a space for a band and there is also a booth for the DJ.
The wait staff is great. Shane is usually the bartender on Monday nights with Tina, Neeve, or Nicole taking care of the floor. Although we've been there when they had some other waitress taking care of us. In any case, we knew we were taken care of. When we first started going there, they would give us a free round of shots. We thought we were special, but we knew some bars did that to hopefully get us to come back. We didn't need the shots.
If your ever in New York City and just happen to be in Hell's Kitchen, head over to the Rogue! You can be a tourist and feel welcomed. The regulars are not pompous so you may meet someone new!
