- Better Options on UWS!
The atmosphere is fine at Soldiers and the beers are cold with a decent selection for most patrons. However, I have given this place two opportunities to wow me with thier food and I have been dissapointed both times. Today I ordered a burger and the bartender - who was more interested in setting up her new iphone than serving - did not ask me how I wanted it cooked and when I received the sand...

I love Soldier McGee! I've been there several times and have always left wanting more. It's a great place to watch a game. It's clean and I love the open space. The jukebox is awesome and there is always a great crowd. Try the macaroni and cheese wedges they're a perfect pair to the icy cold draft beer. I don't often find myself on the UWS but when I do McGee is the place I go.

Was there with a lot of people and the staff was really nice. Many HD screens, so was able to watch every game. Good crowd. I will definitely be back. Cool jukebox.

Read More On Citysearch pauliedefilipps 9/4/2008 - Avoid this place like the plagueI can't begin to describe how bad this place is. My boyfriend took me there over the summer to watch a game and I hated it. I think Jimmy254 said it best. Besides the update in decor, this is one of the worst additions to the Upper West Side over the past 2 years. I met a guy there who claimed to be part-owner. He seemed like a nice guy at first, but he proceeded to talk about himself for th...

Read More On Citysearch BILLBELL 9/4/2008 - Looking for a good bar on the UWS? This place is NOT a good choice.
As an UWS resident, maybe one of the worst places I've been to in the neighborhood. The new owners cleaned the place up nice and poured a lot of money into the decor, but there was absolutely no atmosphere and the patrons were miserable. I went w/ a friend recently to watch a game, expecting a laid-back sports bar with good eats, cold beer, and a friendly crowd. Instead, we were introduced to...

The bartenders' are friendly, courteous and plenty efficient when it comes to getting what you want. I would recommend this place to everyone for any day out of the week! You'll enjoy great music whether you like old school or new school-you can find just about everything in their jukebox. They also have great food!!! Please see what everyone's talking about - GOOD TI...
Read More On Citysearch Val312 3/5/2008 - Sub-par BarThis bar has changed ownership a couple times in the last few years, and this is probably the worst amalgamation yet. But if you ever get drinks there, just put them on The Donnely Tab. They'll know what you mean.
