Food, Drink, Music, & Art in the Bronx since 1991
An Beal Bocht Cafe is Riverdale’s home for Irish culture, comfort food, and community. For over 30 years, we’ve proudly served as a neighborhood gathering place for artists, musicians, poets, and anyone in search of good craic and great company.
Nestled in the heart of the Bronx, our cozy cafe and bar features live Irish and local music, theatre, comedy nights, poetry readings, and rotating art exhibits. Behind the bar, our friendly staff pours a carefully curated selection of local craft beers, classic pints, and thoughtfully mixed cocktails.
Our kitchen serves up hearty fare inspired by Irish and American comfort food—perfect for a casual lunch, post-show pint, or late-night bite.
Pull up a chair, enjoy the music, and be part of the An Beal Bocht story. Sláinte!
Eat & Drink
Serving up Irish comfort food and classic pub fare in a laid-back setting—plus brunch every weekend and a cozy bar perfect for a pint or two. Nothing fancy, just good food, good drinks, and good company.
Music & Theater
Live music is scheduled almost every night, making An Beal Bocht one of the Bronx’s most vibrant spots for local sound. We’re proud to host the borough’s longest-running Irish trad session—over 25 years strong.
Art & Community
From rotating monthly gallery shows to original productions by Poor Mouth Theatre Company, An Beal Bocht keeps Riverdale’s creative spirit alive and thriving.
“Many Irish pubs in NYC are at least 50% sports bar. An Beal Bocht, on the other hand, feels like a cottage where you can socialize with your neighbors and hear about how their grandkids are doing at school.”
