Worth it, says Antonina. For one of NYC’s best sports bars, just look for the Empire State Building and head across the street to Legends.

Best sports bars in New York

No. 11 on that list
Worth it
  • Address6 W 33rd St, New York, NY 10001
  • From my guide, updated January 2024.

For one of NYC’s best sports bars, just look for the Empire State Building and head across the street to Legends. I brought a friend there for a Giants game a few years ago, and he still raves about it. The bar, situated at the foot of the iconic landmark, offers affordable drinks, tasty food, and a cozy dive-bar vibe. What makes Legends even more special is its role as the home of the Football Factory, hosting over 30 supporters clubs for soccer teams worldwide. Check their calendar and visit on game days to experience the lively atmosphere.

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