Master Critic Review
Haymaker Bar & Kitchen
8.1
A polished gastropub near Herald Square with well-fried wings that lean juicy inside and lightly crisp outside, finished in straightforward bar sauces. Happy hour works here because the kitchen is steady, and the room feels more comfortable than chaotic—good for a lingering round with wings as the centerpiece. Not flashy, just reliably satisfying.

Chicken Wings, Haymaker Burger, Mac & Cheese
