Bjork continues her month-long residency in New York with four presentations of her “Biophilialive” multimedia project at the legendary Roseland Ballroom.
Roseland is located on the edge of the Theater District at 239 W. 52nd St. If you have tickets, you likely found this post because you’re wondering about the best restaurants near Roseland.
Do yourself a favor. Ignore the traditional theater district haunts, most of which are mediocre, over-priced and packed with out-of-towners streaming off of tour buses.
No, instead take an easy three-minute walk west to Ninth Avenue, where the Brickyard Gastropub awaits, with a dinner menu laden with prime meats and seafood, local, organic produce, and the best craft beer in New York City. Also check out our bar menu, with three different types of sliders (Kobe beef, pulled pork or Vegetarian) and four different types of amazing chicken wings. We are perhaps best known for having the best craft beer list in NYC, with the majority of our beers brewed within a few hundred miles of our establishment.
Soon, you’ll be sharing sentiments such as those expressed in the reviews of Brickyard Gastropub on TripAdvisor, where we are consistently ranked as one of the top restaurants in NYC.
We look forward to having you!

For those for whom an unhurried, romantic dinner on a Tuesday night is not feasible this year, we suggest an alternative Valentine’s Day: Sunday brunch.
In most restaurants in New York, the leisurely midday meal that is brunch tends to come with a few unwanted additions: crowds, long waits and overpriced menus. But we want brunch to be something you can look forward to, and then actually enjoy. With that in mind, our weekend brunch is available on Saturdays and Sundays, and you can stroll in any time between 11 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. And we promise – no long waits.
And the menu? It’s anything but ordinary. You won’t see basic eggs benedict or blasé pancakes, but you will find interesting takes on classics, and seasonal ingredients combined creatively–like our outrageous entree salads, our famous Brickyard’s Benedict, the best Irish breakfast in NYC, Frittatas, French toast with Nutella and bananas, and Farro andFruit. All for between $10-$15 per entree.
Brunch is quickly becoming one of our most popular meals; come by with your loved one(s) this weekend to find out why.

Valentine’s Day is a day for celebrating romance, whether with a significant other, or with your family or friends. You enjoy some moments with people you love, and celebrate the romance in your life, or the possibilities for it.
When love is in the air, how do most restaurants respond? Why, by jacking up their prices, naturally. It’s as though they think you should prove your love for one another by spending way too much on a meal. Just as catering halls charge more for weddings, on Valentine’s Day, most restaurants offer only a “prix fixe” menu, which should more honestly be called a “prix grande” menu.
Not the Brickyard! No, we don’t raise prices for the holidays, for the Super Bowl, for March Madness, not for anything. We love our customers, and we love hearing from nearly everyone who walks through our doors, “we’ll be back.”
So this Valentine’s Day, we’ll be offering our regular menu at regular prices. But we’ll also be offering a prix fixe menu – not a prix grande menu. Indeed, our prix fixe menu offers our famous tasting menu for two for $49.95! We also continue to offer our three-course prix fixe menu for $29.95 per person.
We challenge you to find a better deal in Manhattan from a restaurant that is so highly rated (see reviews of Brickyard on Open Table, which accepts reviews only from verified diners, where we consistently rate four stars or better – higher than ANY comparable restaurant).
While we are known as one of the best sports bars in New York City, we also have a separate back room with a quieter, more sophisticated and romantic vibe that is a perfect place to celebrate romance. Come see for yourself.
We expect to fill up quickly; please call us today at 212-767-0077 for reservations.

Too often, when we heard the word “sports bar;” we think “fist fights, cheap plastic pitchers of bad beer and crappy 25 cent wings, crowds five deep at the bar.”
The Brickyard is not one of those cavernous sports bars whose capacity rivals Madison Square Garden. We don’t want large, rambunctious crowds; just a few dozen fans who are passionate about the game, their drink, and their food.
We’re the midtown New York sports bar for grown-ups.
For the Super Bowl, we’re doing something different than most other bars in New York City. Sure, like everyone else, we’ll have a bevy of large screen TVs turned up loud, but we’re adding something else: a healthy dose of sophistication.
For those who call us early enough to reserve a table, this starts with your own seat, at a table, and waiter service. For everyone at a table, and those who choose at the bar, we’re also offering a special for a fixed price of $65: for the duration of the game, you can enjoy 20 of our craft beers, house wines and well drinks, as well as an ample supply of a wide array of passed hors d’ouvres, including the best chicken wings in NYC.
Those sitting or standing at the bar are welcome to enjoy our usual menu and drink selections at regular prices.
Call us today at 212-767-0077 to reserve your table.
Come enjoy the lead-up to the Big Game, which will include Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton singing “America the Beautiful” and Kelly Clarkson singing “The Star Spangled Banner.” Like everything with the Super Bowl, these performances are watched closely and ranked against the all-time greats. Most observers currently rate Whitney Houston’s 1991 rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner as the best ever at a Super Bowl.
Welcome to the best sports bar in midtown Manhattan for grown-ups.

Today is the beginning of Broadway Week, an event that has been so well-received by theater goers that it now runs for more than two weeks, ending February 4.
So what’s the deal with Broadway Week? It’s elegantly simple. Most of the shows on Broadway – from classics like Chicago, Godspell and Porgy & Bess, to new shows such as Chinglish and Relatively Speaking – are offering two tickets for the price of one. See the Broadway Week website for limitations, but it’s the best deal you’ll see on Broadway all year.
In the spirit of encouraging New Yorkers and tourists to partake of all that New York has to offer, Brickyard Gastropub is offering two, prix fixe specials for Broadway Week. One is a small-plate tasting menu, and the other is a traditional three-course meals, with choice of entree. Each costs just $29.95 per person (plus tax and gratuity).
Small-Plate Tasting Menu
Witte Steamed Cockles - New Zealand cockles, capers, tomato, fennel, shallot, steamed in Ommegang Witte
Le Belle Farms Duck Salad - New York State duck, poached pear, dried Michigan cherries, roquette, candied walnuts, goat cheese, champagne vinaigrette
Steak Frites - Seared and skewered grass fed New Hampshire hanger steak, parmesan & white truffle frites,
Au poivre dipping sauce
Assorted Petits Fours - Four unique and delicious petits fours
Prefixed 3 course Dinner Menu
Soup du Jour or House Salad
Entrée Selections (* choose one)
* Pressed Chicken - Crispy skin-free range chicken, spaghetti squash, wheat berries, brussel sprouts
* Potato Crusted Flounder - 6 oz flounder, haricot vert, oven roasted roma tomato, saffron beurre blanc
* Flat iron Steak - Pan seared flat iron, truffle mashed potato, haricot vert, bourbon bleu cheese sauce
Assorted Petits Fours - Four unique and delicious petits fours
For those who just love tastings, may we also suggest our four-beer sampler? Just as the tasting menu is for those who can’t choose from among our many savory appetizers, our four-beer sampler is for those who can’t just pick one of our 24 world-class craft beers on tap.
Brickyard is quickly becoming known as one of the best restaurants in the Theater District of NYC. Our reviews on Open Table are the very best you’ll ever read for a restaurant in our moderate price-range.
Reservations are strong for this two-week period, so please call us at 212-767-0077 to book your table today.

Brickyard Gastropub has quickly become known as the best place in midtown NYC to watch soccer and other European sports. The large boisterous crowds we drew for the Women’s World Cup were covered in segments on NBC Nightly News and Tokyo TV.
We also had large, enthusiastic crowds for the Heineken Cup Rugby Final last year and the Barcelona vs. Manchester United in the UEFA Champions League Final. Indeed, we’ve become known as one of the best Barcelona soccer bars in NYC.
We’ll certainly be one of the best NYC bars showing Real Madrid vs. Barcelona in COPA Del Rey on Wednesday, January 18, at 4:00 pm.

Many people in New York City will spend some or much of this upcoming weekend planted in a seat at a sports bar, gobbling up bar food, downing beer, and watching one great football playoff game after another, all day long.
New York City has many sports bars to choose from. But most of them define “sports bar” as ones that offer cheap plastic pitchers of bad beer, 25 cent wings and fist fights over space among crowds 5 deep at the bar.
You’ve looking for something a little more sophisticated.
Watch the NFL Playoffs at Brickyard Gastropub, the midtown New York sports bar for grown-ups. Here’s why:
We Take Sports Seriously
We have 9 HDTVs, more than enough to satisfy everyone in the bar.
The Beer
Our first-class list of 24 craft beers on draft and five craft bottle beers evolves regularly, particularly as the seasons change; it’s always anchored by beers from Blue Point, Six Point, and Ommegang. As the glowing reviews on Open Table and Yelp convincingly show, sports fans share our taste in beer.
The Wings and Other Fabulous Bar Food
Our passion for sports and beer doesn’t come at the expense of the taste of our food – we are, first and foremost, a Gastropub.
Ours are anything but ordinary: very meaty, perfectly crispy with just enough spice and served with creamy New York State Bleu Cheese dressing. Take your pick of Buffalo, Teriyaki, Thai Chili or Honey BBQ wings.

- A flight of craft beer at Brickyard Gastropub
We also offer baskets of regular and Sweet Potato Fries, Beer Battered Onion Rings and Homemade Potato Chips, as well as the best sliders in NYC, featuring your choice of Kobe Beef, Lamb or Crabcake, and NYC’s best burgers, whether Beef, Veggie, Lamb or Bison.
Groups
Got a big group of friends? We accept advance reservations from groups of loyal fans and promise to show their team’s game in its entirety. So whether you’re cheeseheads from Green Bay praying for a repeat, Tebow maniacs, or Niners fans from SF dreaming of former glory, all that matters to us is that you’re in NYC now, and fans of the Brickyard. Let us make you feel right at home.
Call us today at 212-767-0077.
You can also make smaller reservations on Open Table.
