Great place for family and friends. I attended with a group of 7. Everyone including the kids enjoyed their meal. The kids ate the calamari appetizer before I can try it..(I think they thought it was onion rings). I ordered the branzino and red snapper ceviche with a Cabernet Sauvignon. Excellent combo! I would revisit!

This is a fantastic option for dining before a show at MSG. My burger was in my top three all time list, just off the hook. Espresso martini was fabulous, and full-size and full strength despite being at happy hour prices. Service was attentive without making me feel rushed. Honestly, my only deduction is for the super high volume music they were playing. It went beyond adding a fun vibe to making it virtually impossible to hear someone speak. If they could just dial that back a bit this would be the perfect spot for dinner in the area.

If you’re early for your event at Madison Square Garden or just looking for a great date-night spot nearby, Bourbon and Branch is the place to be. The vibe is awesome — two floors, stylish décor, and just the right energy before a big show. The bartenders and staff are top-notch, super friendly, and know how to make a great cocktail.
We had the burger and the risotto bowl with salad, and everything was perfect — flavorful, fresh, and hit the spot before our concert. Highly recommend stopping in here before or after any MSG event. Great drinks, great food, and great people!

Bourbon and Branch is in the ideal location if you’re going to an event at Madison Square.
The place has ample amount of space having two floors and is great for a large parties.
They have a decent wine and liquor selection. The sliders are perfect for sharing, especially when you don’t have a lot of time.
The bartenders are always attentive regardless how busy they are. Which it does get, make reservations if you know you are stopping by.

Come and get it! This place has really, really good food. Just look at the pictures I posted. Everything came out at once, all cooked perfectly, and everything was delicious. The service was great, Wilmer did an awesome job. The only issue was that the music was way too loud for 830 pm on a Tuesday. It’s not a club it’s a bar, with great food, loads of tv’s, and really loud music.

My aunt and I were in NYC from out town for an event. After it was over, we were having a hard time finding somewhere to sit and have dinner that didn’t have a 2 hr wait (Saturday night in New York!). We kept searching and found a reservation open at Bourbon and Branch and the menu looked appealing.
I cannot say enough about the service. Everyone was genuinely warm and friendly and SO attentive. We’re water drinkers and they brought us a carafe of cold water. When our glasses got to half empty, someone would quietly appear and refill them. We didn’t have to ask for another carafe when we finished it. It just appeared.
The food was great, very tasty and well prepared. The atmosphere is modern and comfortable. There are TVs with sports playing, but I didn’t find it distracting and we could still converse without any issues.
I wish B&B was near where I live, because I would most definitely go back.

Situated in the Penn district and conveniently across from Madison Square Garden / Penn Station, this restaurant can easily be missed within the commuter chaos but should not be passed up. Perfect choice before or after an event or meeting up before a commute, the Food , Cocktails and Decor hit all marks. Great destination for brunch, especially a large party (we were 10). The food presentation is inventive, quality and flavor was well executed and cocktails are a must! Decor is modern Deco, bright and lively. As for service, could not be happier with the level of attention, patience and care. Bourbon & branch left us happy campers!
