Every bar we track

All 3264 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.

Standings

$5.00

43 E 7th St, New York, NY 10003, USA

Drafts on the same menu ranged $6 (Miller Lite 16oz) to $9 (LIC Sour Hour, Maine Lunch). This listing is nearly 3 years old, so pricing may have changed. A Time Out NYC 'best bar in NYC' article (Jan 2026) found via search did not mention Standings or any pricing at all.

The Lions Bar & Grill

$5.00

132 1st Ave, New York, NY 10009, USA

Cheapest regular (non-happy-hour) beer on the standing menu is $5: either the Lions Lager mug or the High Life bottle (other beers: Braven Pilsner mug $7, Founders All-Day IPA mug $7, Guinness 16oz $9, Yuengling bottle $6, Modelo Especial can $6, Hudson North Cider can $8). Separately, during the 4-6pm Mon-Fri happy hour, single Mugs of Beer (Lions Lager, Pilsner, or IPA) are also $5, but the 'Pair of Lions' deal (2 mugs of Lions Lager) is $8 for two, which works out to a derived $4.00 per beer -- cheaper than any single-item price, though only available as a 2-mug purchase, not a per-unit menu price.

Happy hour: Mon–Fri · 16:00–18:00 · $5.00

Cecilia

$6.00

97 St Marks Pl, New York, NY 10009, USA

Cecilia's official drinks menu (image file 'CECILIA WINE COCKTAIL MENU 08 2024', dated Aug 2024) has a dedicated BEER box with four options each showing two prices separated by a bar: Reissdorf Kolsch (Germany Ale) 6|9, Talea 'Al Dente' Italian Pilsner/Brooklyn Lager 7|11, Threes Brewing Table Beer (Brooklyn Saison/Farmhouse) 7|11, and Guinness Draught (Ireland Stout) 7|10. The menu does not label what the two numbers represent (likely smaller pour vs. full pour, mirroring the wine list's glass|bottle format), so the cheapest confirmed standing price is $6 for the Reissdorf Kolsch at its lower listed price. The $9 figure may be the full-pint price for the same beer.
