Love the space, very old school wall street charm with generous seating, dark wood decor Have always eaten on the 2nd floor where theres a slightly more casual feel, albeit not much. Good food but flaky service. Came here for a team lunch a couple months ago where we chowed down on the lunch special (hearty sandwiches, decent prices. loved my rare steak sandwich), then got the runaround by our sweet but ditsy Australian waitress who couldnt seem to figure out the bill. Instead of debiting the cash and splitting the rest across 3 cards, she made the cash disappear then charged the amount across the 3 cards, making for a very surprising receipt indeed. Trying to get this fixed probably took longer than our lunch, we sat around waiting for her, a manager, anyone to notice & give back our cards with the right payments. Yes, Ill come back, but only if shes not serving.

I found the Pound & Pence when I was dropped off at the mall by my hotel shuttle. Ended up here almost every day for happy hour for two weeks. Cole, the bartender was beyond kind and funny. She has one of the best personalities I have ever seen in a bartender. Ryan, the other bartender (I got the manager vibe from him but maybe I am wrong) was also awesome! He knew the beers well as well as good recommendations for stuff to do around New York. I will be back next week and will be back to the Pound & Pence.

The place was pretty empty when they sat us down for lunch. We were seated at two small circular tables with comfortable but impractical chairs required us to sit on the edge of our seats to eat properly. Appetizers were tasty, but very overpriced. They charged about ~$10 for eight clearly prepackaged mozzarella sticks and some marinara. Entrees were much more reasonably priced and were pretty tasty. Cant comment on nightlife or drink selection.

Fantastic burgers....maybe the best Ive had in the City. Friendly waitresses. Good vibe overall. Only reason I didnt give 5 stars was because the bottom step on the staircase that goes to the 2nd floor isnt aligned with the rest of the steps, and after having a few beers upstairs, I missed it on my way down and almost broke my neck (actually, it wasnt my neck)! The need to fix it.

This is a nice place to meet with coworkers in Wall St after work. This place has a intimate atmosphere. Although I have not been there for happy hour, I heard they have great drink specials. I had a hamburger with fries. It was well done and very tasty.The hospitality was spot on and was not too crowded but still popular. Dress up nice for this place.

Typical pub experience, beer, fries, cheeseburgers, chicken fingers, etc. It is a large space with an upstairs and downstairs, and some pool tables. There are a lot of separate rooms, and sections/sub-sections. There is a dinning area and a bar area that are apart from each other.

I wanted to like the private room upstairs but they 1. Had candelabras with no candles on the table (we bought our own at the DR down the street) and 2. In my group of 12 people they forgot my dish, didnt really apologize and took forever to finally bring it out.

Dark, bit danky/run down. Service was okay. Food was okay. Had a company party here. Had to wait at times for drinks because we werent fast enough ordering and we only had one waitress that frequented our area.

A typical Irish Pub. Low lighting, horrible French fries, and more types of beer than I care to remember. The burger I ordered was tasty but expensive. Its not a place I plan on visiting again.

Decor and atmosphere is great. The hostess and waitress were both very friendly. My friend and I both had the Merchants Burger which was great. Great British beer on tap as well.

This place truly feels like an English pub, and provides a great escape from downtown corporate America. We usually stop in on Monday nights for 2-for-1 drinks and a Shepherds Pie.

Ive used this venue for decades because of its excellent service and menu options. Fireplace and pool table area afford a casual or romantic setting depending on the occasion.

A dark bar with a ton of beers on tap and in the bottle. They have a pool table which is rare for the bars in the area. A good happy hour spot after work.

Nice atmosphere. Front staff could be more interested in their job. I walked in and they never inquired if I want a table. Staff needs more training.

Typical Wall Street-ish bar. The drinks are overpriced and there is almost no room to sit. If you have money to burn, feel free to visit.

Yup, its a standard Irish Pub. It is hard to notice on the 2nd floor, but once you are in there it is very inviting.

A really good classic English pub. The food was tasty and the beer was delicious. Prices arent too bad either.
