About Us
Playwright Tavern is a place where you can relax – where the atmosphere is warm, the people lively and the food appetizing. A true Irish American bar and restaurant. Serving New York since 1995 we are a regular stop off for theater goers before and after a Broadway show. We are conveniently located in the heart of the Theater District, just minutes from Rockefeller Centre and St. Patrick's Cathedral.
