It's hard to imagine a better location than the thriving East Village street corner where this Irish pub sits. During weekdays, people coming off of the F train at 2nd Avenue stop by for post-work drinks, while during the weekends partiers do a little casual pre-drinking before heading off for more raucous bars. Pints of Guinness are the most popular drink, although a variety of Irish and U.K. beers are also on tap. The kitchen produces hearty, standard pub fare, from 8 oz. burgers and Cajun chicken sandwiches to chicken pot pie and bangers and mash. During brunch, dishes like French toast and steak and eggs are available with a complimentary brunch cocktail and coffee or tea. The two-story bar itself has a fairly traditional look to it, with a long bar topped with flickering tea lights, velvet curtains and a painting of a group of Guinness-drinkin', hard-workin' Irishmen.—Keith Wagstaff
I would have given this place zero stars, but that is not an option. As a regular patron of One and One, I had the worst experience that I no longer will be returning to this establishment. After arriving five minutes to this place, I was targeted and verbally assaulted by one of the employees of the restaurant. I was told to leave and was pushed by one of the bouncers. As I asked to speak to a manager to address my treatment, they were extremely hesitant.
As a 5'6 female from the Midwest, I was surprised that my presence was so threatening. The Head of Security approached me and said that he was the "Acting Manager" as the current Manager had delegated him that title. As I asked him to address the hostile situation that occurred, he claimed that he did not owe me or anyone in the establishment an explanation and that he was only speaking to me as a courtesy. He stated that as I was on "private property" and that I had to leave immediately. He stated that if I were to visit this establishment again, it would be very difficult for me to enter.
I was very upset by my treatment and would like to have addressed my situation with a manager.
This establishment will not be receiving my business anymore and I have spread the word to my social network to inform them of the poor treatment that I received here.
