Ever tried a hamburger in pita bread? Kenn’s Broome Street Bar adds a simple yet unique twist by blending the soft chewiness of pita with a juicy hamburger patty. While the pita-burgers steal the show, Kenn’s Broome Street Bar doesn’t boast many other distinctive features. Its “normal” charm has made it a popular spot for tourists seeking the quintessential New York City dive bar experience.

This neighborhood joint has held its place among the best bars in SoHo for 50 years, offering great service, people-watching opportunities, and a flavorsome drink list. Whether you’re a visitor or a local, Kenn’s Broome Street Bar provides the perfect setting to unwind with a cold one.

Worth it, says Antonina. Been? Say if you agree.
