  • From my guide, updated September 2026.

Mr. Bigg’s epitomizes the quintessential NYC dive bar experience. It’s a local favorite known for its laid-back atmosphere and affordable drinks that rarely sees an empty seat. The brick walls are home to a handful of television screens (that are usually playing sports) and the bartenders are friendly.

The main attraction is the unbeatable drink prices, courtesy of their can’t-miss happy hour in Times Square. With select shots and beers priced at just $4 all day, every day, it’s a steal.
