Cold beers, classic cocktails, and bottomless brunch steps from Washington Square Park.
Seventeen years ago, The Half Pint cracked open its doors at 76 W 3rd St and never looked back. What started as a neighborhood beer bar in Greenwich Village grew into one of those rare spots that earns regulars fast and keeps them coming back, earning over 880 reviews and a 4.2-star reputation built one pour at a time.
The bar carries a second name for good reason. Ernie's at The Half Pint is a nod to Ernie's 3 Ring Circus, a legendary venue that occupied this same address from the 1940s through the 1960s. That history isn't just a backstory, it's a mood. The room has the kind of lived-in character that newer bars spend thousands trying to fake.
Classic American beers, cocktails, and a small food menu keep things honest and approachable. This isn't a place chasing trends. It's a bar doing what bars are supposed to do, and doing it well, seven days a week.
Bottomless brunch on Saturdays and Sundays until 3:30 PM is the weekend anchor, and it fills up. Book ahead through Resy if you want a table rather than a wait. Happy hour gives weekday crowds a reason to duck in after work, and the bar is open daily from noon onward, stretching to 4 AM on Fridays and Saturdays for those nights that refuse to end.
Planning something bigger? The private party room accommodates groups from 10 to 130 guests, making it one of the more flexible event spaces in the neighborhood for birthdays, corporate outings, or any occasion worth celebrating with a crowd. Online ordering through Grubhub and Uber Eats brings the food menu to your door, and gift cards are available for the friend who always suggests this place anyway.
