This happened a couple weeks back, but I thought I 'd share my experience at this place. What a bizarre experience. We had a company outing at Brass Monkey, and I had 2 drinks. After starting to feel slight discomfort in the stomach, my friend and I went to the bathroom. A lady bartender with wavy, blonde hair followed us into the bathroom and stood there, peaking under the stall !!! to see what was happening. She immediately said that I had to leave if I was feeling sick, to which my friend responded that I was feeling discomfort from earlier and needed to relieve my stomach. The only thing she said was you need to go and went to grab SECURITY GUARDS to escort us out. After having 2 drinks...
I liked everything about this place but people need to stop praising the food. Its regular bar food that tasted like McDonald's. The buffalo sauce tastes like chemicals but I dont blame brass monkey because thats how they buy it.I had cooks who know how to fix the sauce and make it their own with a few simple ingredients already found in every kitchen.Anyways everything else is great. The food is definitely good if youre five margaritas deep or havent ate in more than 16hrs. I had the cheeseburger and it was cheesy and fresh. Lettuce and tomato would of put it in another level.Anyways yea just regular bar food.Im pretty sure this bar is only known for their atmosphere and drinks not their fo...
This place is terrible. I would give it 0 stars if I could. As you can see from other reviews, this restaurant is a complete disaster and not worth visiting. I organized a group of 60 people to eat here twice, but both experiences were awful. The drinks were expensive and weak, but the worst part was the staff. The manager was incredibly rude and made our group, who were quiet and respectful, move to different tables for no apparent reason. The security guards seemed more interested in hanging out with their friends than ensuring the safety of customers. Stay far away from this place. The rooftop terrace is not worth it, there are much better options in the city for a good time. Hopefully, t...
We came here after going to Chelsea piers about a 15 minute walk). They open around 4pm on Sunday and we were seated at the rooftop terrace. The rooftop terrace had plenty of sunlight and a decent amount of tables. The rooftop terrace faces little Island. I love the chicken fingers here, they come with fries as well around $13). I also got a brass monkey light $8) it was a great light beer. The nachos were average. I would recommend the chicken finger w fries. It comes with ranch and bbq sauce to dip in. The Service was great!! The server checked on our table multiple times, always making sure we had drinks. Great spot to chill with friends during the day! I have not been here at night so ca...

While the rooftop attracts the uninitiated, there are two spacious levels with ample bar staff to accommodate evening fluctuations. This song along with the timeless decor and traditional bar atmosphere make Brass Monkey one of the more tolerable big bars in the Meatpacking District.While admittedly not my favorite part of town, if you find yourself in the area and don't want to deal with riff-raff or drama, this is a safe haven.
The restaurant can feel cramped and crowded at times, but the people are friendly and the atmosphere is cool. The local drag shows and bear nights are entertaining and welcoming. The rooftop deck is gorgeous but can get busy. Drinks are on the pricier side, but overall it's a fun place to hang out and meet up with friends.
DO NOT GO OUT HERE!!!!! They were charging $4 for tap water. I have never been to a bar that has denied patrons WATER. It wasn't even bottled water they were charging for it was TAP WATER!!!! And they charged a $10 cover (which is fine normally) but that on top of charging for water, insanity.
I enjoyed my time here, but I’m not sure it was worth the 20+ minute wait to get into the bar. I was a bit underwhelmed when I got inside. I would recommend instead going to Le Bain which is very close by – it has sweeping views of NYC and has a more energetic atmosphere.
