Every bar we track

All 3270 bars in our NYC beer-price database, grouped by neighborhood and sorted cheapest-first. These are real beer prices, accurate to the best of our knowledge — but a "beer" means whatever that bar pours, so sizes vary. Prices change often, so call ahead. Prefer the live view? Open the map.

This directory is for browsing and checking details, rather than a definitive ranking of identical pours. A listed price may be for a can, bottle, draft, or a happy-hour special; read the note and source on each card before making a trip.

Wildcard Bar

Wildcard Bar's own website lists a '03 Beer' section with three items — Isekado Hime White Wheat Beer, Isekado Pale Ale, and Sapporo Premium Lager — but the site displays no dollar prices anywhere on the menu page for any category (cocktails, beer, sake, whisky, or food), consistent with a reservation-oriented speakeasy that doesn't publish pricing online.

Cheapest beer is $6 (Peroni or Heineken bottle). The homepage's stated weekday 5-7PM happy hour explicitly offers 'half-priced cocktails' only, with no mention of discounted beer, so no happy-hour beer price could be confirmed.
