McSorley's Old Ale House - New York City

McSorley's Old Ale House is the oldest Irish pub in New York City. Opened in 1865, this amazing bar is dripping with history. It has hosted a myriad of famous patrons such as our two great presidents Abraham Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt, painter John Sloan, poet e.e. cummings, and many more. This NYC bar has not changed its decor since 1910, so when you step into this East Village haunt, you can reminisce and experience the true "Old New York."
