Ward III, with their eclectic drink menu and custom cocktails, has made our radar as one of the best bars in Tribeca. We're also big fans of their Tortuga drink. A quick walk from City Hall Park, it's our top pick for Super Bowl celebrations on Tuesday.

If it's nothing but beer and team spirit you're looking for, look no further than the Patriot Saloon. you can order a pitcher of beer for the price of a Bud Light bottle at your standard NYC nightclub (No kidding!) Their $2 frozen margaritas, $3 Heinekens and $1.25 sliders are other wallet-happy specials.
