Texpats Happy Hour at The Gem Saloon (formerly Rodeo Bar)
The Gem Saloon, 375 Third Ave, New York, NY, USSUBSCRIBE TO OUR EVENTS CALENDAR ON LUMA: http://lu.ma/texpats
This one’s for Rodeo Bar, our old haunt for so many good years and great nights with loud stories and just enough Texas in the middle of Manhattan.
The Gem Saloon now sits in that same space, but the spirit lingers. The room has had a refresh, but it still feels like it knows what came before: a place for big groups, easy laughs, and happy hour that runs a little longer than we planned.
One reviewer called it “authentically western,” which feels about as good as it gets here in Manhattan.
Another reviewer wouldn't shut up about the cozy, "Southern-bar vibe," and honestly, that’s a pretty fair read if your standards include big spaces, rowdy behavior, and a place that knows how to keep your glass full.
It’s not Dallas. It’s not Austin. But it does give “we found a decent spot and survived the winter.”
Come for the happy hour, stay for the saloon energy, and let the city try its best to keep up.
Let's pour one out for Rodeo Bar and raise a glass to the next round at Gem Saloon.
Same corner, new outfit.

Texpats go to the Feast of San Gennaro
Mulberry Street Bar, 176 Mulberry Street, New York, NY, USThe Feast of San Gennaro is a highlight of the year for New York's Little Italy.
And since Naples is basically the Texas of Italy, we're crashing the party.
We're trading brisket for bolognese and making our way to the festival at Mulberry Street Bar, then rolling into the fair together for a night of Italian swagger, street-fair spectacle, and Southern Italian charm with a Lone Star twist.
The festival was first celebrated in 1926, when immigrants from Naples congregated along Mulberry Street in Little Italy to continue the Italian tradition of celebrating their patron Saint Januarius.
Naples may be south of the border in Italy, but it’s got the same big-hearted energy as Texas: proud traditions, strong opinions, bold flavors, and a serious love of feeding a crowd.
