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.

Carlota

$5.00

14A Orchard St, New York, NY 10002, USA

Carlota's official menu lists exactly one beer, Mahou draft, priced at $5 — but this price appears only inside the site's 'Happy Hour' section (opening until 7pm on every day they're open), with no separate non-happy-hour beer price shown anywhere else on the Tapas, Vermouth Service, or Cocktails menus. We report $5 as the cheapest confirmed, regularly-available price since it is the only price Carlota publishes for beer and it recurs every operating day (not a one-off event). However, the source explicitly frames it as a happy-hour rate, so it's possible (though unconfirmed) that a higher price applies after 7pm.

Happy hour: Sun, Tue–Thu · 17:00–19:00 · $5.00  |  Fri–Sat · 16:00–19:00 · $5.00

Catalyst Market Bar

$5.00

88 Essex St, New York, NY 10002, USA

Two non-alcoholic beers (Patagonia Provisions Non-Alcoholic by Deschutes, and Run Wild by Athletic) are also listed at $5.00 but were excluded from the primary price since they are non-alcoholic.

Casa Thirteen

$6.00

173 Bowery, New York, NY 10002, USA

Cheapest regularly-available beer is Miller High Life at $6.00 per the official drink menu (Guinness $11, Estrella Damm $10, IPA $8, Miller High Life $6). Serving size not specified so treated as one standard pour. Separately, the food-menu page's 'Happy Hour Drinks Menu' lists BEER $5 for the same four beers (Guinness, Estrella Damm, Ballast Point Sculpin IPA, Miller High Life) during happy hour. I used the food-menu page's times since it is the actual itemized happy-hour menu (more specific/authoritative for beer pricing) rather than the homepage marketing banner.

Happy hour: Mon–Thu · 16:00–19:00 · $5.00  |  Fri · 16:00–18:00 · $5.00
