Neirs Tavern One of the oldest and most historic bars in America serving NYS Beef Council Voted Top Ten Burger 🍔
(1207)

One of the oldest and most historic bars in the country, Neir’s Tavern is a destination for a casual drink, a hearty meal, and good company. Over 190 years old, Neir’s was home to Mae West’s first performance, scenes from Goodfellas, and countless other remarkable moments in history. Today, it still holds up to the same charming, laid-back, neighborhood bar that holds a special place in New Yorkers’ hearts.

Who would have thought a little tavern days from closure 17 years ago would now be listed among the top 100 small businesses in America?

This wouldn’t be possible without the entire customer community!

The Neirs ambassadors, regulars, volunteers, strategic partners, current and former staff. Everyone contributed to get to this point on the road to 200.

It’s not over yet and we have more obstacles to overcome but if you stick with me and this amazing tavern I truly believe our community can conquer all.

It’s often advertised people should support local businesses and shop local.

On an early Saturday morning Neir’s Ambassador Liam Castro invited Neir’s Tavern supporters to show there are more than one way to support local businesses. He organized another Amazing Neir’s Tavern Halloween decoration party.

This was more than decorating one of America’s oldest community taverns, it was creating a sense of community in a time it’s needed most. IRL.

A sense of belonging around a historic tavern that almost closed. A reminder we all can do something.

Although it’s super important people come here for lunch and dinner so we can reach 200 years in 2029, this was a priceless action showing action speaks volume.

Thank you Liam, Neir’s Ambassadors and all the volunteers! I hope everyone made some great friends and thank you for your contributions towards the NEIR’S ROAD TO 200 Journey.

Another example of COMMUNITY CONQUERS ALL!!

See you at the next decoration party for Christmas Decorations! Let’s make it look like the Goodfellas Christmas Scene!!!

I was packing up my laptop to rush out of Neir’s when someone called across the dining room:

“Are you the owner?”

I left my bag and walked over to our Mae West booth. That’s where I met Claire and her husband, Tom.

Claire told me she owns Old Town Bar, which has been open since 1892. She’d visited Neir’s several times hoping to catch me, and we finally connected.

We talked about keeping two places that opened in the 1800s going. She said owning their building was what allowed Old Town Bar to survive COVID.

Neir’s doesn’t own its building. I’ve been trying, but we don’t make enough profit to make it happen yet. I’m still not giving up.

We took this photo together, and I promised to visit her place. Maybe we’ll bring some Neir’s Ambassadors and supporters along for a little road trip!

I almost rushed past this conversation. I’m glad Claire stopped me.

🎉 A PROUD MOMENT FOR WOODHAVEN, QUEENS! Congratulations to Neir’s Tavern on being named one of America’s Top 100 Small Businesses for 2026 by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, receiving recognition in the Enduring Businesses category!

Established in 1829, Neir’s Tavern is so much more than a historic restaurant and bar. For nearly 200 years, it has been a neighborhood gathering place where friendships are formed, traditions are celebrated, and generations of families come together.

What makes Neir’s truly special is not just its remarkable history, but its continued commitment to the community.

From supporting local organizations and charitable causes to welcoming families, neighbors, and visitors, Neir’s represents the very best of what a neighborhood business can be.

As the 2026 RHBA Fair Chair, I also want to personally thank Neir’s Tavern for its generous support of our 51st Annual Fair. Businesses like Neir’s help keep our community traditions alive and bring people together.

This national recognition is a wonderful reminder that small businesses can make an extraordinary difference, not only through the services they provide, but through the communities they help build.

Here’s to Neir’s Tavern, its incredible legacy, and the road to its 200th anniversary in 2029!

Congratulations on this well-deserved honor! 👏
