McCray’s Tavern - West Village

Recently went to check out McCray’s Tavern in West Village. On a hot and sticky night, what better to do than go try a new restaurant. McCray’s definitely has become a meeting point. As soon as we walked in the door, we were struck by the deafening noise of the bar area directly in front.

We opted for one of their three patios. Being rather warm, we could certainly recommend adding fans to the outdoor areas, but all was good. Particularly since they sell 20 oz. Paulaner Hefeweizens. It’s hard to find 1/2 liter beers around here.

Their menu offers a wide selection of pub food from Fish & Chips to Slow-Roasted Beef Short Ribs. We started off with the Spinach & Artichoke Dip along with the aforementioned Paulaner and a Pilsner Urquell. You have to love a cold draft beer on a warm night.

I ordered the Shrimp & Grits, in my continued pursuit to find the perfect S&G, my wife went for the Salmon Panini, my son opted for the pasta marinara and my daughter selected the grilled cheese.

We were generally happy with our meals, but not blown away. Still haven’t found the perfect Shrimp & Grits. But I do think that McCray’s will prove to be a popular spot for their bar and locale. With 45 beers on tap and 50 wines to choose from, you really can’t go too wrong, can you? And with approximately 1,000 residences in West Village alone, I’m sure everyone will enjoy the convenience of walking to their local tavern.
