Local 42 Bar 574 9th Avenue, Manhattan, New York 10036

"Lovely low key local bar with affordable prices and a welcoming staff! The ambience is comfortable, and its design thoughtfully laid out. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area!"

"Very cool new bar in the area. Food was on point(Burger was great and with the cottage fries saves me a trip to JG melon when I get a craving). Can’t beat the pricing for both food and drinks; ~$5-6 beers. People working there make it an easy place to come back to again"

"Such a great bar and the service, beer and food were excellent. From the outside, the bar doesn’t look very impressive, but inside, it’s clean, well furnished and well designed. Our server Annie was super friendly and the beers were great. We tried a starter of fried pickles which were delicious and a must try."

"Old spot rejuvenated. Menu enticing, but yet to try. Food smells amazing and quite well thought out. Bit bright the lighting. Music could be louder, bit buried by the din. And it's music selections that you want to hear louder. Neighbors certainly a factor with noise, but there's simple fixes to rectify that. I'd suspend speakers with rubber isolators and achieve eliminating reverberations. Way experienced in that end of things. Great prices especially for this neighborhood. Locals took to it already like bees to honey."

"We came from out of time and came across this little spot and so glad we did!!! Adam the owner and Alex the bartender were amazing!!! Such great hospitality!! And their Jerk BBQ Wings were amazing! The best flavor! I highlighted recommend this spot!!!"
