The Shakespeare

British restaurant · Murray Hill

@infatuation

"The Shakespeare is a large, cozy bar that does a great job of recreating a British pub where you'd hang out with your “mates.” (Do they call it mate-zoning over there? Very confusing.) But portraits of Shakespeare and other super dead British people make this place decidedly unromantic, and they'll remind your potential admirer that love only ends in tragedy. This pub is a favorite after-work stop for Midtown’s nine-to-fivers, so you’re more likely to see people shit-talking their boss than you are to come across any couples gazing into each other’s eyes.
