Better than coffee? This NYC bar opens at 8 a.m. | Bars of NYC | New York Post

[@davidzimmerman3778]

Who drinks at 8am, the night shift that gets off at 8am.

[@fritzvolz1640]

People who work the night shift, should be able to have a beer after work.

[@IKEMENOsakaman]

Thank you to everyone working overnight to keep the city running

[@derekrobertson60388]

It truly is the city that never sleeps

[@justdoingitjim7095]

Back in the 80's I worked in a small bar called The Cedar Club, on the outskirts of a small rural Texas town. It also opened at 8 am. Sometimes when I showed up to open, I'd have guys sitting in their pickups waiting for me to unlock the doors. It was a small beer and wine bar, but we also served free coffee. Some of the people would come in for the free coffee, but stay and have a few beers too. We had three "shifts" as the owner called them. We had the morning "shift" from opening until around noon. Then the second "shift" would start arriving and stay until around 4 or 5 pm. Then we had the evening/night "shift" with some customers that stayed until closing at 2 am. It was another one of those bars that "everyone knows your name!"

[@ZeroGravityLife]

I would probably need a morning drink too if I lived in NYC

[@kentara_excelsior]

This is true. Trust me.

[@mervynnel9267]

I truly enjoyed watching. This lady has a wonderful attitude to life and a personality to match.

[@jayneves]

been to literally EVERY bar in all 5 boroughs? i kinda doubt that.

[@EvilAndy-os6bz]

Then at 10:00am is an AA meeting half block down ;)

[@nickbaumcycling]

Fun fact, back in the day, like the 1500s, beer / ale WAS a breakfast item. it just stopped being one as time went on

[@samil5601]

The world is a darker place for that.

[@IgnoretheButter]

**1800s

[@zzzyyyxxx]

Their beer was much weaker than today's, it was basically like 1% alcohol so mostly water.

[@devorah935]

Because the water was not safe

[@RodSherwood1]

Do people realize that there are people who work from midnight to 8 am?

[@tj-kv6vr]

great to see SOME things haven't been totally wiped out by our broken system.

[@cct7558]

These people worrying about drinking at 8 am have obviously not spent much time in Europe or Asia.

[@__tacocat__]

Or aren't aware of people that work overnight

[@francismeehan5298]

I used to know a bunch of places open at 8 am ...and drank in them all ..

[@whydoineedahandle269]

My grandfather is from New York City. And he used to drink whiskey in the morning. Pretty much every morning.

[@mikeb5190]

Bars in the Bronx, and probably the other boroughs, could open at 8 am and close at 4 am. On Sunday it could open at 12 Noon. And it closed an hour earlier on Saturday night, or after midnight at 3 am. My dad was a bartender. He worked 6 days a week, 10 hours a day.

[@highmountaingraphics]

The Park Tavern in NJ opens at 7am!

[@karlbyrne6021]

Here in Dublin we call them "early house's" some open @ 7am. Usually around the markets & docks.

[@cojaysea]

There was a bar / Restaurant in the port Authority back in the late 60,s and early 70,s called The Post and Coach . The restaurant was fabulous. The bar was separated from the restaurant by itself . It was open in the morning for rush hour and was packed people standing three deep at 7:30 AM .

[@jukio02]

Where I live in California, bars are opened in the morning time, too. I thought this is normal stuff.

[@MBinDenver]

Wow what a treat to see... my first trips to NYC in 2004 found us meandering through this neighbourhood and finding the (now gone) Pomodoro Pizza place across the street ... the natural progression was to head over to Spring Lounge for some Yuenglings... a tradition was born... every time we've visited NYC since, Spring Lounge has been our destination. If you find yourself at Spring Lounge, you've seen a wonderful part of NYC on the way to get there... and you've found the best place in NYC!

[@wayneszpara6521]

My girlfriend and I like this place.

[@diannemarshall4078]

[@connerross612]

Wasn’t expecting to see mike cannon s/o chrissy chaos

[@DelightfulHelmet-mc8su]

I said something to my friend about a bar open at 730 and he said its the midnight shifts 4 pm.

[@ConcreteRiver]

There is nothing remarkable or impressive about drinking alcohol early in the morning.

[@Daniel-xu6kd]

2pm is a bit late to be in the society. shouldve been earlier

[@twofiveb]

I lived in a big American city where bars closed at 4:00 am and opened again at 7 am. Just enough time for the help to z out the registers, clean the place up, restock the bar, and reopen. That was fine but sometimes I just went to a 24-hour bar so I didn’t have to worry about when they closed. 😂

[@SonyPSP1001]
