The Westy

Great blues and vibe tonite at the Westy...

You won't find a better bar in Ithaca. Graduate students, friends, homies, love. Checks all the boxes. One buddy hasn't been but wants to go.

Lots of very good beer in the right environment to hang and drink for most

Extensive outdoor seating with a great atmosphere. I always find the soft yellow lighting outside relaxing. Plus endless free popcorn!

Large beer selection, many local. They don't serve food but there is free popcorn and you can bring your own food in, or cook your own food on the grills outside. Nice outdoor area with lots of picnic tables. There is often live music and/or a food truck parked there. Pool table and dartboard inside. A couple TVs inside too usually playing sportsOnly 21+, can't get in without ID

Great atmosphere, quality selection of beverages, good seasonal food and game options, and great staff! What's not to love?

Easily in my top three bars in Ithaca. The beer selection is great, and wide enough to please all palates. Every time I have been the patrons are friendly and have a good vibe. The live music scene is great, featuring a lot of locals doing original music that will leave you wanting more. From drinks to ambiance, the Westy is hard to beat.

Good beer selection from around the area. Summer is great with the large outdoor area. Inside can be crowded during the colder months, but what do you expect in upstate NY?

Free popcorn and reasonable prices.

Great spot! I love the outdoor patio with string lights. They had live music inside, cheap beer, and a popcorn machine. Cool diverse crowd. I visited this bar twice while in Ithaca for the weekend.

Outdoor seating is great way to catch up with friends. They have a food truck some days. Beer selection is okay but not great. Beer specials can be a great deal.

Great beer, dog friendly, good African food as well.

Stop in on occasion to see an old friend.Beer selection is varied and wide. There is something here for every taste. Bartenders are friendly and make you feel welcome. Bar can get a little cramped when they are busy, so take the time, before winter sets in, to relax out side where there is plenty of seating.

Summertime local beers in the back garden on a Sunday afternoon. Soaking up a little sun, then maybe staying for the music? Yes, please.

Good to hear that there is still something for the towns folks to enjoy with no college kids to mess it up thank God.
