George Keeley
Amidst all the loud and highly besotted college bars of Amsterdam Avenue (Jake’s Dilemma, Bourbon Street, Brother Jimmy’s, et al), Keeley’s is a slightly more mature and quieter place. Of course, the ceilings and walls are covered in drawn-on dollar bills as per tradition and the joint also offers highly competitive dart matches, so this isn’t exactly a place for dying wallflowers either. You can make sure that dart elbow is limber by sampling from some of their unique 23 taps and a dozen or so bottled offerings (Cigar City Guava Grove, 25-oz. bottle for $20). The food menu is equally extensive, boasting the “best burger on the Upper West Side,” plus pub standards like fish and chips ($13.95) and five different kinds of chicken wings. If you’re hungry on the cheap, you can, of course, just salt your tongue with an endless supply of free popcorn courtesy a bar-side machine. But, we all know that inverse ratio between free popcorn consumed and pricey beer purchased!

Great beer selection

The beer selection is usually excellent, with a cask beer. Sheckys underrated this place from that perspective.

I don't understand why reviewers always fail to mention the best part of Keeleys which is their desire to always have a good selection of quality beer on tap. It is a great place with a great staff and frankly quite most of the clientele are not college age at all. Keeleys, in reality, is a good beer bar in a place (UWS) where there are few good beer bars.

By far one of the better (cleaner/tamer) pubs on the Upper West Side. Standout beer selection, average bar food, and a comfortable mix between comfortable and crowded.
