White Horse Tavern

A literary landmark

567 Hudson Street
(at 11th Street)
New York, NY 10014
+1 212 989 3956

This old-fashioned West Village pub dates back to 1880, and it is famous for being the location where the great poet Dylan Thomas drank himself to death. Shy poetry enthusiasts might be disturbed by the rowdy after-office bar scene and the greasy food that only a drunk could love. Nevertheless, the place is oozing with history and character. In good weather, there is additional seating outside in front of the bar. Cash only.
