URBANDADDY.com- Prepare yourself for the majesty of the world’s first megagastropub: it’s called The Ainsworthand it soft opens on Wednesday in a big way (literally).

Imagine, if you will, the harmonious marriage of a gastropub and the sportsbook at Caesars—minus the gambling
, smoking and velour jumpsuits—and you start to get an idea of the enormity of the Ainsworth.

When we tell you it’s big, we mean it—we’re talking 6000 square feet, 40 flat-screen TVs, wrought iron gates dividing three sections of the restaurant and a gigantic antique pinewood bar backed by antique mirrors and ornate black-gold wallpaper running the length of the space.

Great place to meet the buds, guzzle down some suds and sink your teeth into some burgers and buns.  The Giants and Jets faithful gather here on Sundays while Alabama’s Tide will stake out the area to watch Saban’s solidiers…Roll Tide Roll.  Ask for the friendly bartender Brian, he will pour and shake whatever you want him to make.

122 W 26th Street (Between 6th and 7th)
