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.

East Williamsburg

The Starlight Tavern

$3.50

596 Grand St, Brooklyn, NY 11211, USA

Cheapest beer on the official current menu is Michelob Amber Bock at $3.50 for an 8oz pour ($7 for a full 16oz pint) — the menu explicitly prices both pour sizes, so $3.50 reflects the smaller stated serving rather than a standard pint. Cheapest full-pint (16oz) draft options are Evil Twin IPA or Pacifico Lager at $8, and the cheapest can/bottle is Budweiser or Miller High Life at $6.

Grace & Ruby's

134 Kingsland Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11222, USA

The official site's homepage mentions a 'draft beer' lineup and shows a happy-hour poster graphic, but the poster text is not legible/extractable and no price text accompanies it. Instagram (@graceandrubys) had no recent posts referencing beer prices or specials. The venue-booking page for Grace & Ruby's confirms 'rotating beer on tap' but only lists private full-venue-rental rates ($75/hr, $50/hr Mon-Wed), not beverage prices.

The Walk Inn

198 Union Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11206, USA

The bar's own /menu route 404s despite being indexed by Google, and the homepage/About Us page carry no drinks list or PDF menu — only a description as a Dominican-inspired cocktail bar/lounge with a full bar (beer, cocktails).

Elmhurst

MB Bar Boutique

$5.00

40-08 74th St., Elmhurst, NY 11373, USA

Official site copy (indexed by search engines) states 'MB Bar Boutique offers 2 for 1 on any cocktails and $5 beers all day' — this reads as a standing, all-day price rather than a time-limited happy-hour deal, so it is reported as the regular cheapest-beer price (assumed standard pour/bottle.

El Gato Verde Sport Bar

$6.00

82-14 Roosevelt Ave, Elmhurst, NY 11373, USA

No official website or price-bearing menu could be located (website is unknown. The only concrete beer price found is a customer review quoted verbatim on Wanderlog (aggregating a Google Maps-style review): 'Good place to trash money. $6 beer+tip. $20 +tip (her drink). $20 for dancing. $5 small water.' This indicates a standard beer runs about $6 plus tip. It is a review-derived figure, not a confirmed standing menu price, so confidence is low.

Elm After Hours

$6.00

83-30A Broadway, Elmhurst, NY 11373, USA

Elm Roastery's official 'Bar Menu' page lists canned/bottled beer (Brooklyn Brewery Lager) at $6, the cheapest standing beer price. Draft beers (Five Boroughs Gridlock Hazy IPA, Ghost Amber, Catskills Pilsner) are $8/pint, and a beer flight (3x8oz pours) is $15. This bar menu operates under the 'Elm After Hours' concept, where the daytime coffee shop converts into a bar. The 'Elm After Hours' page (new-page-1) only confirms bar operating hours (Fri/Sat, stated as both 7PM-11PM in the main heading and 8PM-Midnight in the footer, an internal inconsistency) with no discounted pricing mentioned. A separate 'Grand Opening' event page referenced a one-off $20 entry for unlimited cocktails/beer, which is an event price, not the standing menu, so it was excluded per instructions.
