Shaffer's — Restaurant in New York

One of the owners of shaffers called a potential Black patron of his establishment the N-word. The owner was visibly inebriated and under the influence of Alcohol. Said person had just finished their shift working for the next door Dispensary and wanted to simply have an after hour drink. The person had never EVER interacted with the owner prior and was just trying to enter the bar after working an 8 to 10 hour shift to simply unwine before departing home. Said person was not ignorant , irate, or disrespectfull to the business at hand. They did not attempt to put themselves in a situation to experience this harsh and ugly racist encounter. Having seen this encounter first hand, I could see the level of how hurt and uncomfortable they felt. The owner barely knew this person and felt comfortable enough to use the N-word as a white person against an individual they barely knew or interacted with. This business has a culture that is not welcoming to people of color , specifically Black people. AS AN OWNER OF AN ESTABLISHMENT OR A PERSON OF UPPER MANAGEMENT, they is a level of decorum you are suppose to have when interacting with potential new guest or PEOPLE YOU DONT KNOW! I am disgusted by this account still because Ik this individual and will leave their name of out this in respect of their privacy. Please do better...

Fun spot! My sister and I wandered over towards Chelsea thinking we'd run into all sorts of spots along the way (especially seeing as oh we went from Times Square down). And we kept walking and walking... no luck.

And then we happened upon Flight 151 by chance. Very fun place. Drinks were reasonably priced and there was a decent sized crowd without being uncomfortably packed. We liked the butcher paper with crayons, that provided lots of bar table amusement for a Friday evening. I really liked the flight attendant like track playing in the bathroom -- very appropriately in theme.

I've heard the food for bar food is really quite good here, although I can't speak to that personally. Fun atmosphere though in keeping with the...

Amazing experience. Came in with my friend, Shaffer greeted us since no one was at the host stand, got us a table promptly even though it was packed. We came for dessert & drinks. The kitchen was about to close but Shaffer accommodated us anyway and recommended the chocolate chip cookie. We got the churros because that’s what we were craving but to our surprise he brought us the cookie as well just because he wanted us to try it. AMAZING customer service, both waitresses were incredibly friendly too. You can tell Shaffer (the owner) really cares about his business. Music was really good, a mix of rock, hip/hop & afrobeats. Margaritas were STRONG. Absolutely loved it, would highly recommend & definitely coming back. Thank...
