Jack and Fanny's

The Upper East Side isn’t short on bars, but few blend the low-key vibe of a neighborhood spot with the kind of sports-screen buzz that draws regulars. Jack and Fanny’s sits at 1591 2nd Ave, a straightforward option where the focus stays on drinks, games, and the occasional plate of food—no frills, just the usual suspects. They serve beer, cocktails, and hard liquor, with wine and happy hour specials rounding out the menu. Tables are available for groups, though the place leans more toward casual seating than formal dining.

Calling ahead to check on seating? The number’s (917) 259-0028. Expect bar games alongside the sports broadcasts, a combination that keeps the energy steady without tipping into rowdiness. For anyone mapping out the evening, directions pin the spot between 82nd and 83rd—a stretch where residential quiet meets the hum of nightlife.
