Excellent food and cocktails! Friendly staff and cool atmosphere with lots of wood and rusty steel appointments. Must visit if you’re thirsty or hungry in East Village!
I am trying to think of a restaurant with more flavorful food in NYC. Can’t think of any. This place is off the hook delicious! The atmosphere is excellent and the staff is super nice. A new favorite spot for us!
Great wait-staff, great beer, and even better atmosphere. Definitely the sort of place that's worth going out of your way to visit, but it's pretty centralized.
Great food, excellent staff. Our group was well attended to without being rushed. I recommend the pickle back shot.
What a great place! Delicious food and nice staff. LOVED the 3 pickle choices we had and each of our entrees was top shelf. The happy hour made it lighter on the wallet and they had my FAVORITE rose!! Win, Win!!
We were only in Manhattan for 4 days, but ended up at Boulton & Watt twice.
First time we stumbled across it when looking for somewhere for lunch after a great visit to the Tenement Museum. We quickly discovered that it was an excellent spot to while away a rainy afternoon drinking rose and enjoying the excellent menu. The bar and wait staff were all incredibly friendly and when the world cup game started they revealed a secret hidden TV right by our table so we didn't have to move.
We wanted to ensure we could watch the England game somewhere comfortable with a good brunch the following morning so returned and had another excellent experience. Food was again good and bloody marys and mimosas were only $6 - you just couldn't ask for better.
Special thanks to the young girl that served us both days, she was so polite and helpful and really made sure we had a great time.
Boulton and Watt is a great way to get out of the ho- hum of Midtown Manhattan and explore some of Manhattan’s neighborhoods. This place is terrific for Business Travelers and anyone who wants to entertain clients, colleagues, friends or coworkers. The noise level might be a little higher than usual but certainly manageable. Crowd seemed professional on my visit. Not a place for a quiet dinner. Start here and leave yourself time to walk around and explore some of the small shops, bars and restaurants both new and old throughout the Lower East Side. The spot is centrally located putting you
Like many other East Villagers I was sad to see Nice Guy Eddies close. The KISS mural outside was a bit of a neighborhood landmark, the food wasn’t the best (I was a fan of the wings) and the place was pretty dingy, but it was a chill place to get a beer & watch some sports. Neighborhoods change so I figured that a cocktail bar or an upscale restaurant would move in and that I’d hate it, not so with Boulton & Watt. As soon as you walk in, you’ll notice that gone is the dive sports bar decor in favor of a much more industrial look (steampunk anyone?) with belt driven fans as well as exposed brick and duct work. Gothamist calls it ‘ old timey ‘, I’m not sure if I’d agree with that, but I do think the place looks great. Before I get onto the food, I’d like to note that I was invited by the restaurant’s PR firm & I did NOT pay for my meal. I’ve only done this a few times before & I’ve always made sure to mention this fact in my posts & it in no way influences my review. We started with
I had the recent good fortune to be invited to a tasting at Boulton & Watt, which turned out to be directly across the street from my new favorite market, Union Market . Since my visit to the Strand – which, by the way, has a new executive chef with whom I am personal friends and is an amazing BBQ master – I’ve been obsessed with hot alcoholic drinks. Though there was no cocktail on the menu that was hot, when I mentioned I wanted something warm and boozy to drink, our server – who was extremely helpful and kind of cute – suggested a hot toddy. Mine came quickly, scented with clove, sweet, lemony, and just worked nicely. Especially because it was really heavy on the bourbon. YUM. After a bit of browsing of the menu, Cheese and I decided to be a little piggy because I wanted to try a lot of things. First up: the pickled items. Everyone kept raving about the pickled jars of items, so I chose two: brussels sprouts and beets, two of my fave winter time veggies. The beets were great, as exp
Lovely space for a Campaign Launch for Counselmember Sarah Batchu in CB2, Lower East Side. I love her and you will too, so Vote for her after enjoying this wonderful place, with incredible atmosphere, soft music and great food.
Great beers, cocktails (expresso martinis). The Mahi-mabí tacos, chicken sliders, steak frites, veggie bowl, rosemary fries. Perfect for a drink & appetizers.
🗣️Shoutout to @boultonandwatt for an amazing time and supreme service. 🔥🔥
🍗 was seasoned.
🥔 was mashed properly
🥦 was excellent and didn’t make you feel so bad about how juicy that chicken was.
Ask about the salmon…
10/10 will do it again!! 👍🏾

We were supposed to grab a late sandwich at Katz but it was already closed and Bolton and Watt is right around the corner. It was a pleasing surprise. Great music, good cocktails (I had the mint spritz) and good food (the quinoa salad was delicious).
Came here on a weekend during a World Cup game, and as a result it presumably was much more crowded than it typically would be mid-day. The space is nice and open, with a long high top table separating the bar from seating along the windows facing Houston St. The cocktail list was comprehensive, with several seasonal variations on classics and a few house signatures. Service was a little bogged down with how busy it was during the game, but everyone was nice enough. TV quality was subpar, so not exactly the best place to catch a major event, though that certainly doesn’t seem to be the focus of this gastropub.
Update- stopped back here the following week and was able to work through some of the cocktail menu. Particularly like the Midnight in Eden and Album Cover Collector.
