Barney McNabbs — Restaurant in City of Yonkers

I’ve been going to Barney’s for about a year now. I️ did stop going because my favorite bartender had left for a little while so I️ took a break. I️ used to go to Barney’s almost every other day for a few months straight to play pool honestly and maybe have a drink or two but still rarely. After maybe 3-4 months of not going to Barney’s I️ decided after a long shift to maybe go play pool with a couple of coworkers that were already there enjoying their night. With no intention to drink because I️ am currently pregnant. This specific bouncer that I’ve never seen before decided I️ was Not allowed to stay and when I️ asked him if I️ may Sit inside while I️ wait For my cab because I️ had just finished a 10 hour shift where i was standing all day long and it was cold outside he told me no that I️ May stand outside and wait. All I️ wanted was a water and to sit there and talk to people he had already let in. I’ve never been treated like that from ANYONE in that bar not even the owner nor the other bouncer. I️ used to have such a good time here and I’d always tell people about their karaoke night but truthfully after that interaction I️ don’t think I’d ever recommend this bar to anyone again. So hostile...

7/7/23 I walked into the establishment to play a couple games of pool. I don’t like the atmosphere of the pool hall and think it way too overrated. I always love the bar and the bar scene.

When we said we’re here to hangout and play pool the bartender said there’s a pool hall next door and directed us to leave. The lack of hospitality or plain decency was on full display. I know this isn’t the store policy to tell customers to leave. Be better & do better. Not everyone who walks into the bar is going to drink a especially if you have a pool table or darts in the back. I could have purchased a juice or soda but she (bartender) made it seem as if that wasn’t an option. I...

Place could use some updating to the interior. I only come here on Thursday night's for karaoke. It's fun and the crowd is hit or miss. Sometimes it's very lively, while other times, it's pretty boring. The good thing about karaoke night here is that you don't have to pay to sing. Just find a song you like and wait for your name to be called. The drinks are well made, depending who the bartender is. They used to do buy backs for some customers after a certain amount of drinks but I believe that stopped. They have a pool table and 2 restrooms, tables and a stage. Not bad for a local...
