The Landmark Tavern in Hell’s Kitchen

The Landmark Tavern in Hell’s Kitchen is one of the neighborhood spots we feature in our new book “Great Bars of New York City” as it is rich in history having first opened in 1868 as an Irish waterfront saloon on the shores of what was then the Hudson River (now 11th Avenue) to serve the longshoremen, merchant seamen and dockworkers along the neighboring piers during a time when the area was densely populated by Irish ☘️ immigrants. Today it retains much of its original interior including its mahogany bar, back bar, tile floors & tin ceiling which were restored in the early 2000s by owners Donnchadh O’Sullivan & Michael Young.
To see in detail our exterior & interior photographs of the historic Landmark Tavern, check out our book “Great Bars of New York City” available at your local bookstore and online now.
