A review of Kiabacca bar in Manhattan’s Hell’s Kitchen

Located at 639 Tenth Avenue in Manhattan’s Hell’s Kitchen, Kiabacca Bar is a craft-beer bar (and brick oven pizza spot) from the same owners as The Pony Bar next door. More spacious than Pony Bar, Kiabacca Bar offers 20 mostly quality US craft beers on draught and its food menu consists mainly of pizza, though there are appetizers and a few sandwiches. Based on our conversation with the friendly and helpful bartender, we think that Kiabacca may be suffering a bit of an identity crisis. As of this posting, the spot will no longer be open for lunch on weekdays and the craft beers may get limited to just a few of the 20 taps. We hope neither of these developments is true because the beer selection was outstanding and the food made for a solid lunch spot. Either way, be sure to include Kiabacca on your next 10^th Avenue NYC bar crawl.
