About The Long Acre Tavern

The Long Acre Tavern is a multi-floor bar and restaurant at 146 W 47th Street, in the heart of Times Square. Named after the neighborhood's former moniker, the space blends classic New York touches with a modern, casual atmosphere. The menu centers on American fare with classic cocktails and a strong craft beer selection, making it an easy fit for groups with mixed tastes. For events, the venue's biggest strength is its flexibility across floors. The upstairs mezzanine level can be booked in full as a private room or split into semi-private sections, and it has its own entrance and bathrooms, which keeps a group separate from the main bar crowd. The first floor can also be used for larger private gatherings. A state-of-the-art audio and video system supports sports viewing throughout the venue, so it works well for game-day watch parties as well as corporate happy hours, birthdays, and other casual group events that benefit from screens and a lively bar setting.

Planning your event

The Long Acre Tavern is a multi-floor American tavern and sports bar in Times Square with a mix of private and semi-private spaces across two levels, plus a full audio and video setup suited to watch parties and casual group events.

Vibe: Casual, lively sports-bar energy with classic New York tavern touches and modern finishes.
Space layout: The venue spans multiple floors. The second-floor mezzanine can be booked as one private room for up to 60 or divided into semi-private sections, with high-top tables, stools, and standing room. A separate upstairs back room holds around 40 and is set apart from the main bar by a small staircase. The first floor can host private events for up to 50.
Private events: The Full Mezzanine Area and the First Floor can be booked privately. The upstairs level has its own entrance and bathrooms, which helps keep private events self-contained. Semi-private options include a partial mezzanine buyout and the upstairs back room.
Food & drinks: The kitchen serves American fare, and the bar offers classic cocktails and craft beer. Confirm event menu options and beverage packages directly with the venue.
Group size: Stated section capacities range from about 35 in a partial mezzanine section up to 60 in the full mezzanine. The upstairs back room fits around 40 and the first floor around 50, so most groups between roughly 20 and 60 can be accommodated in a single space.

Good to know

The upstairs event level has its own entrance and bathrooms, useful for keeping private groups separate from the main bar.
The full mezzanine can be split into two semi-private areas, so it works for both one large group or two smaller ones.
Mezzanine seating is primarily high-tops and stools with standing space, better suited to mingling events than formal seated dinners.
The venue's audio and video system makes it a strong option for sports viewing events; confirm screen access for your space when booking.
Located steps from Times Square, so it's convenient for out-of-town guests and Midtown offices, but expect heavy foot traffic in the area.
