A LITTLE ABOUT As Is NYC

Let me tell you about As Is NYC, one of the coolest spots you’ll find in Hell’s Kitchen. This craft beer bar manages to balance a trendy vibe with a laid-back atmosphere that keeps you coming back for more. Their craft beer selection is top-notch, featuring a rotating lineup of unique and hard-to-find brews that cater to both casual drinkers and serious beer enthusiasts. But it doesn’t stop there — they also offer a full bar with expertly mixed cocktails and a standout whiskey selection for those who prefer something a little stronger. If you’re in the area during the week, their Happy Hour from 3 PM to 6 PM, Monday through Friday, is not to be missed.

One of the things I love about As Is NYC is how much thought they put into every part of the experience. The food is as good as the drinks, which is saying something. Their menu goes beyond your typical bar fare, with creative dishes that pair perfectly with their craft beers and whiskeys. Whether you’re in the mood for a hearty bite or just a snack to go with your IPA, they’ve got you covered. The flavors are bold, the portions are generous, and the quality is always spot on.

What really makes As Is NYC stand out, though, is their Run Club. Yes, you heard that right — this bar has its own runners' club, which meets regularly to combine fitness with community vibes. It’s such a fun and unique twist on the typical bar experience. Imagine finishing up a run and heading straight back to the bar for a celebratory pint with friends, new and old. It’s not just about the beer; it’s about creating a sense of connection, and the Run Club embodies that perfectly.

The bar itself has an inviting vibe, with a modern design that still feels warm and approachable. The Hell’s Kitchen location adds to its charm, placing it right in the heart of one of Manhattan’s most vibrant neighborhoods. It’s a place where locals gather after work, friends meet up for a night out, and runners celebrate their miles. Whether it’s a casual weeknight or a lively weekend, there’s always a great energy at As Is NYC.

So, if you’re looking for a spot with killer craft beers, a well-rounded bar, amazing food, and a vibe that feels just right, As Is NYC has you covered. Swing by during Happy Hour to take advantage of the deals, or come later to soak in the atmosphere and see what’s on tap. It’s the kind of place that feels like a neighborhood favorite, with just enough of a unique twist to make it unforgettable.
