This gritty, no-frills NYC dive bar isn’t for the timid—but for those who appreciate an authentic watering hole, it’s a hidden gem. A solid lineup of beer and whiskey awaits, including a well-poured Guinness. Bonus: there’s a pool table to round out the experience.

“The Deep Eddy Cabaret of the East Village” Boots on the ceiling, Shiner bock, big buck, pool and an A jukebox.

This place is crazy! The country music on the jukebox was rocking, the beautiful women were dancing, and the drinks were strong and tasty! This place was nonstop fun! And the craziest part.....this was like at 6pm! We had just started our evening and found our way to Doc Hollidays. It was packed to the gills. I could swear it was already peak party time at 11pm at night. But no! It was barely 6! The only bummer was that they only take cash before 9pm I think it was. So bring plenty of bills if you want to drink early. The bartenders were very nice so don't you dare short them on tips! My brother, like an idiot, gave the bartender exact cash for the first round and she took her time getting back to us with our second drink. But after I started leaving a more generous tip we found ourselves back in her good graces. My apologies for my brother ma'am. Anyways, it was a great time and we will definitely visit next time we are in New York.

Loved this bar. A real ‘wipe your feet on the way out’ kinda place but the grime / grunge just works. Old fashioned jukebox, a pool table and an arcade game provide the entertainment. All rounded off by a great bartender. Worth a visit.

I think this is my favourite dive bar in NY! Great atmosphere, friendly staff and they let you bring in pizza from next door.

I’m so glad Doc Holliday’s survived covid. The bar looks like a hole in the wall kind of trippy place but the drinks are inexpensive, people are authentic and a fun place to stop by to play pool, pregame w friends and enjoying a night off in Alphabet City. Make sure to bring cash as it’s easier to pay for drinks that way.

Best bar in the goddamn city and anyone who doesn’t like it wouldn’t survive a goddamn minute in the South. Only bar with good music and vibes.
