Every bar we track

All 3329 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.

Vanguard Wine Bar (Upper East Side)

1372 1st Ave, New York, NY 10021, USA

Vanguard Wine Bar's own menu lists beer only by style category (Cider, Pilsner, Lager, Wheat, IPA, Pale Ale) with the instruction 'Please Ask Your Bartender for Our Current Offerings' — no per-beer prices are published. The only priced 'beer' item on the menu is Clausthaler N/A (non-alcoholic) at $10, which is excluded since it is not a standard alcoholic beer and is priced far outside a typical regular-beer range.

The Speakeasy at The Gin Mill

$5.00

442 Amsterdam Ave, New York, NY 10024, USA

The Gin Mill's official 'Menus & Specials' page states a recurring daily beer special: '$5 ALL Beer, Well Drinks & Shots' Monday-Friday until 8 PM, and the same $5 all-beer price Saturday-Sunday from open until 8 PM. Since the bar opens at 11:30 AM every day, this $5 price is available roughly 8.5 hours a day, 7 days a week, making it the cheapest regularly-available (recurring, non-one-off) beer price found. The separate 'Menus' tab lists about 30 draft beers by name (Bud Light, Coors Light, Guinness Stout, Goose Island IPA, Modelo, Six Point Crisp Pils, etc.) but publishes no individual 'full' price outside this special, so no separate non-discounted price could be confirmed for hours after 8 PM.

Happy hour: Sun–Sat · 11:30–20:00 · $5.00
