Hudson Hound — Restaurant in New York

This is like your friendly neighbor Irish bar-ish restaurant serving some comfort food. We went on a frigid winter Sunday for brunch. My friend thought to introduce me to something in the West Village below 17th Street. The wood interior with tables and banquette lends to the pub like atmosphere but it was over loud like some pub like places.

We had a seat at the large comfy booth. Our server quickly greeted and handed us the menu. They had the usual suspects for brunch but what I eyed was the Fish and Chips and my friend got his usual when he comes here. The Full Irish breakfast and two Bloody Mary to start.

The fish came in a nice batter that was light and crispy, not oily at all and the fries were the same. Maybe I was use to the big slab of cod that would come out but here the fish looked like it was a bit hacked and two smallish pieces that kinda looked like scraps. My friend’s Irish breakfast looked pretty good with brown bits that we had to look at the menu to figure out what it was but either way it happily satisfied him.

The bright place was a good brunch place. Overall, a good pick. I’d probably be a little happier if my fish didn’t look like table scraps but it was cooked well and the meal was good. We were both happy but unhappy we had to face...

A bunch of Irish friends and I made it over to New York for an epic Paddy's day weekend (March 2013) and were lucky enough to find this gem of an Irish bar in the West Village. Atmosphere, genuinely warm friendly people and banter are the essence of any real Irish bar (not old street signs, bottles and Irish tat!)... and the D6 delivers them all in bags. A really classy bar that does great value good quality food too in the adjoining restaurant. Jason (the proprietor) is an absolute legend, one of the friendliest guys you could meet and an absolute boss on NYC - great for recommendations! We loved the D6 so much we basically made it our base from which to explore the city. Couldn't recommend it highly enough for a quiet few pints, a bit of grub or a full blown night out. We'll be back to NYC and we'll...

I went here for a Google Expert (in training) mixer.

The layout was nice. They have a restaurant portion and bar portion. A wide selection of belgian beers (tap and bottle) among other types. I like Belgian beers, so I didn't look at the other ones.

They also have a great selection of wines.

We mainly stayed in the bar area. Which consists of a long room, with the bar. They also have a back room area with some couches and seating area. The bartender was nice and attentive. This was a Wednesday night, so other nights it might be busier.

We had some hamburger sliders, which were OK. Not great, but not bad either. A little on the meaty side. The meat to bun ratio was not perfect. But, it was not a deal break.

Music was not obnoxiously loud and they had one TV screen...
