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.

Somm Time

$12.00

254 Broome St, New York, NY 10002, USA

Somm Time is primarily a natural-wine bar/restaurant but does sell beer by the can. The official drink menu lists a dedicated Beer section: Reissdorf Kolsch and Grimm Ales Wavetable IPA, both $12/Tall Boy (alcoholic), and Best Day Brewing Co. Kolsch Style Non-Alcoholic at $10/Can. Cheapest alcoholic beer is $12 for a tall boy can (not a standard pint — the menu prices by can only, no draft pints offered). If non-alcoholic beer is counted, the cheapest 'beer' item is $10.

Baby Grand LES

187 Orchard St, New York, NY 10002, USA

Baby Grand LES is a confirmed walk-in karaoke bar with two full bars serving beer, wine, liquor, and cider, so it qualifies as a bar. However, no current source publishes a standing beer price. Checked the official homepage and the LES location page (about-les) — neither lists a drinks/beer menu or prices, only a song list and private-event info. The VIP Loft and Flatiron private-events pages mention 'beer buckets' as part of bottle-service packages but state no dollar amounts, so no per-beer price could be derived.

BabySips

176 Rivington St, New York, NY 10002

Natural wine bar on the Lower East Side, no reservations.

Boho Karaoke Orchard

152 Orchard St, New York, NY 10002, USA

The venue advertises $5.50 draft beer daily from open to 9 PM and $5 draft beer Tuesdays, but does not publish a standard beer price or one fixed daily happy-hour start time.

Bowery Restaurant Supply Co

183 Bowery, New York, NY 10002, USA

The legal/registered name 'Bowery Restaurant Supply Co' at 183 Bowery corresponds to the operating bar 'The Ripple Room,' a 1970s-themed two-floor bar/lounge with pool tables that opened in 2025. The only price signal found anywhere is from The Infatuation's 2026 editorial review, which mentions a '$10 beer/shot combo' available at the bar -- but since this bundles a shot with the beer (not a multi-beer bucket with a derivable per-beer price), it cannot be reported as a standing single-beer price.

Brick Wine Bar

21 Clinton St, New York, NY 10002, USA

Checked Instagram (@brick.winebar), which shows a 'Menu' story highlight but no fetchable price content.

Cafe Skye LES

43 Clinton St, New York, NY 10002, USA

Cafe Skye LES shares one bar menu with its East Village sister location. The only concrete, recurring beer prices found are under the official Happy Hour section (Wed–Fri 4–7pm): Narragansett Lager $6 and Sloop Juice Bomb Hazy IPA $7 (cheapest $6). This was confirmed consistently across two independent fetches of the same official page. Also worth noting: per the official /visit-us page, walk-ins/reservations are accepted ONLY during that Wed–Fri 4–7pm happy-hour window, with Saturday–Tuesday being private-events-only, so the undisclosed chalkboard 'regular' price may rarely apply to an actual walk-in customer. Routes checked for a regular price: homepage (/), /menu (twice), the official PDF bar menu, and /visit-us — none gave a standing number.

Happy hour: Wed–Fri · 16:00–19:00 · $6.00

Champagne Problems

207 Bowery, New York, NY 10002, USA

Official venue homepage describes its drinks concept and current hours but exposes no drinks or beer menu.
