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.

Arvine

$6.00

19 Greenwich Ave, New York, NY 10014, USA

Arvine's own website lists only one beer on the entire current menu — Talea Lite Lager, on draft — and it appears exclusively inside the 'HAPPY HOUR' section (Monday–Friday, 4:30-6:30pm, at the bar) priced at $6. There is no separate all-day/standing beer listing anywhere else on the site: checked the homepage, /the-bar/ page, and did a full raw-text dump of /menu/ (which also covers Dinner, Brunch, Cocktails, Wines, No-Alcohol sections) and beer never appears outside the happy-hour block.

Happy hour: Mon–Fri · 16:30–18:30 · $6.00

The homepage and menu both reference a weekday 'Golden Hour' from 4:00-6:00 PM that includes beer among discounted categories, but the menu page states this discount applies specifically to spritzes at $9 each and does not list a distinct discounted beer price. The homepage also lists beer as included in the happy-hour offering but gives no price.
