We have a test for you.
We'll blindfold you and drop you in any of the handful of Irish pubs
surrounding Madison Square Garden. After removing your eyewear we'll
have you name which one you are in. Odds are there is no way in hell
you'll be able to do it. Mustang Sally's? Mustang Harry's? Triple
Crown? The Harp Bar does nothing to distinguish itself from any
of these places. Maybe this is done on purpose. Is Mustang Harry's
too crowded? Come to the Harp Bar and have the exact same
experience. We guess we really shouldn't expect much originality from
a place that caters to hundreds of people a week all dressed in blue
polyester mesh hockey and basketball jerseys. Honestly, it's not a
bad place to grab a couple pints before a game (and is certainly a
step up from the Blarney
Rock around the corner), but aside from being completely cookie-cutter,
the prices are not so good and the waitress service is horrendously
slow. Basically, you'd be better off getting tanked at home first
and avoiding the whole scene all together. [MF] |
