Owner Message

  • Cheap beers specials
  • Free hot dogs!
  • Great jukebox

Rudy's bar opened in 1933 by the Rudy family. It was one of the first liquor licenses issued in New York City after prohibition ended. The present owner, Jack, started drinking in Rudy's in 1943 when he was 16; back when Hell's Kitchen was really Hell's Kitchen! Rudy's may be the most well known bar in N.Y.C., with a long and colorful history. The stories Jack can tell. Rudy's still has the original wood door from the day it opened. When you walk through it the feel of the old neighborhood saloon is still there with cheap beer, free hot dogs, and great people!

Where to begin... This place is a true dive bar in every sense of the word, and is completely awesome. They have a nice beer selection at great prices (Rudy's Blonde, not only cheap, but good - it's what I always get). The jukebox has a great selection, and the cross-section of people there is incredible - as diverse as the city itself. But what's most important is the respect that the bartenders (who've been there forever) quietly command - they're good, fast, and don't give an attitude, yet everyone who walks in knows not to mess with them. Oh, and free hot dogs. I mean, free hot dogs with beer. Does it get any better?

Pros: Prices, people, jukebox, bartenders, EVERYTHING

Cons: Nothing

Great Neighborhood Bar...Incredible Prices

We visited Rudy's Thanksgiving 2008 on the advice of a friend who has a business on 46th. It was awesome. The bartender greeted us immediately. The beer prices are incredible, and keep in mind you are only blocks from Times Square. It is an easy and safe walk, especially if you walk down 46th (Restaurant Row). The atmosphere is dive bar, which we loved. Everyone was friendly and having a great time. We are middle aged and some places are so young that we feel a little out of place. I can't imagine anyone ever feeling out of place in Rudy's. We will be back in July. Save a red booth for us!! Texas loves you!!

Pros: Great prices, great location, great sevice

Cons: Crowded and small....get to know you neighbor!

Best dive in the hood. I've never ordered the free hotdogs, but they smell pretty good. Just don't order one with katsup and make a fool of yourself.

Rudy's is okay. There are people that think that you have to like it, just because it is a famous dive bar! It is alright. You won't be more popular if you go.

Pros: Cheap drinks for certain people

Cons: Cheap drinks for certain people
