    Solid Woodside tavern with just about something for everyone.  I like to come here on Thursday nights when Kieran is bartending and usually playing a mix of 70s and 80s New Wave from his ipod.  I get the burger with all the fixings and back it with an imperial pint of Goose Island IPA and shot or 2 or 3 of Powers.   It is the best burger in Woodside and the price is beyond fair.  Kieran and Ronan try to keep a mix of different activities - live bands, quiz night - going on to keep folks entertained.  I'd recommend a stop at Saints and Sinners to anyone

    I recently moved to the area.  There are a lot of Irish ex pats living around here and tons of Irish pubs.  All are basically the same -- dark, comfortable, with a big bar.  but I think this is the place that is truly Irish  -- not Irish American.  It is a well run pub, well taken care of, with an attractive atmosphere.  It is smaller than I expected.

    I stopped by Saints and Sinners mid afternoon looking for food and at that odd hour, it was pretty empty. I was expecting them to tell me the kitchen was closed but no ---I could have anything I want. The menu is guy food. There were 6 other people there other than myself and 5 of them were Irish.

    There are TV screens everywhere -- I tried to count them but gave up after 15 !!

    My bartender was professional, intelligent, courteous, on the ball -- and Irish.

    Great place , drinks, and food. Great local bar you can go to in woodside. The ambiance is just chill and not too wild. It's a great place to watch a sporting event cause they have TV screens. They also have seating areas if you have a group aside from being at the bar. The prices aren't killer either and it's near the 7 train. Can't complain about this place! Would recommend they're burgers! It's a place you must visit at least once if your a local in woodside or in queens.

    A group of friends had scheduled a meet-up here so I was intrigued to check the place out. It was a Saturday early evening (although we stayed there until almost midnight!!).

    The staff was great, especially given the fact that there were between 10-25 people there at any given moment.

    The food line-up was standard Irish pub fare which made me quiet happy (they had smoked salmon on top of salad- yay!). During the course of our time there, my boyfriend and I split the smoked salmon salad, the appetizer sampler and the quesadilla. The quesadilla was HUGE and quite the show stealer, next time we will order it early on!!  

    The beer selection was also quite nice! They had SixPoint Sweet Action (a fave) and a good selection overall. There are I would say around ten beers between the draft and bottle section at least.

    It was a nice relaxing place to hang out with friends for a few hours and will definitely be a place I return to.

    I have had very different experiences here. As a bar with TVs, a drinking crowd, and pub food, it is just fine. In the afternoon/evening/night, come in, grab a seat at the bar, or a table on the perimeter and even get waited on rather than having to order through the bartender, and pretty good appetizers too. However, I am not a fan of brunch at Saints & Sinners. Irish bars in Queens all seem to offer the same deal more or less, for $10 or so, get a brunch dish, and a mimosa/screwdriver/bloody mary. First of all, it was absolutely empty at 12 noon on a Sunday, and they had no soda bread, instead giving us what they simply called "irish bread." We ordered mimosas as our drink and they came in the same glasses that they serve water in, rather than the typical champagne glass I would expect, and it tasted more like orange juice with seltzer. While the steak we ordered smelled good, it turned out to be overdone, the omelette was lukewarm at best, and to top it off they served french fries with every dish at our table. This made sense for my friend who ordered a chicken sandwich, but for the more breakfast/brunch dishes, what about home fries? Hash browns maybe? Never been to a brunch spot that serves french fries as the potato side. I'll stick to the PM hours at this place.

    Ok, I come here way too often.  I have since been back during live bands; everyone they have is really entertaining.  Lots of covers, which is perfect for a bar like this.  The front room is perfect if you need to take over a spot with a medium sized group.  The wrap around bar makes it easy to get a drink.  The fish and chips is spot on (but did you think it wouldn't be?).

    Unfussy fried brekky for the weekend. Perfect for occasions you want to avoid more frivolous or self-conscious locations.

    These are clearly very attentive and invested business owners. The place is warm, inviting, and very clean. Recently, we were visiting from Chicago and Portland, Oregon, and staying nearby in the neighborhood. S&S became our nightly ritual when rolling back in from Manhattan. And what a fine nightcap they serve. The beer, wine, and cocktails were all perfect and the service is attentive. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is that we didn't try the food beyond fries (which were good) so  can't attest to the menu!

    What charmed me beyond what I've listed above, is that the staff was very professional (with each other and the guests), and also very welcoming. It reminded me a lot of growing up in Chicago and going to my Irish-Dad's cousins' bar, and attending family events. The first night we visited we were the only people in the place without a thick brogue. One of our party members even said, "There's actually Irish people in this Irish bar." Call me a nostalgic softy, I am, but beyond that, this is a rock-solid place that's clearly invested in (and a fixture in) the community. I will go out of my way to visit again next time we are in NYC.

    "O' When the Saints go marching in..."
    I'll be sinned for gluttony
    Yes, I'll be sinned

    With a friend, my travels venture to Woodside in hopes of inspecting this venue's vibe environment.  A local Irish pub where a square bar sits in the center is similar to 1980s "Cheers" in setting but, of course, not grandeur in size nor beauty.  Seating is ample without question.  Happy Hour is readily available at 5:40pm ish or 6pm at the time of my visit.  No comment on the alcoholic drinks as I did not imbibed any, by choice alone.  The Sliders at $9.95 containing three mini burgers were filling, albeit not juicy but somewhat dry.  The Cocktail mini Irish Sausages at $8.95 were dry and served piping hot with toothpicks.  Quality of bar grub is average, nothing to piqued my interest to acclaim "fantastic" and far remote from "awesome."  On select nights a live band or individual musician(s) host performances at Saints and Sinners in the rear, which I cannot fathom to envision as this space is awkward.

    Facilities are clean and bar tender is attentive though not sprightly eager to serve patrons with immense enthusiasm or willingness.  TVs are readily available for your sports bar.  Hooks are available for purses and coats against the wall under the ledge.  Bar stools have a backing for bags and purses to be placed.  Match books with Saints and Sinners' contact details are the substitute for a business card.

    Irish Pub.

    Not American Irish Pub. This is a legit Irish pub. There are soccer jerseys on the wall and it's generally a great neighborhood joint.

    Beer is standard, Sam Adams, Guinness, Blue Moon, etc

    Good place to watch a game and eat wings.

    Headed in yesterday after the lil'mans baseball game.  Food was really good for pub food.  We tried the fish and chips (2 ok sized pieces of cod), the steak sandwich (which actually came out rare, as ordered) and the chicken quesadilla (and the chicken actually tasted like chicken as opposed to crappy pre-cooked chicken bits).

    An alright selection of beers for an Irish pub.  

    The Bailey's cheesecake was more like a whipped cream cake on a graham cracker crust, but it was very very good.  

    Expensive, but a great value, and for that I salute you, Saints and Sinners!!!

    Authentic Irish pub in the heart of Woodside.  I came here on a Saturday night and surprisingly the place was really quiet.  There is a lot of seating, there's a loungey area with couches as well as tables in the back for a sit down meal.  The beer list is what you would expect - Brooklyn, Sam Adams, Smithwicks, Guinness, Blue Moon, etc.  Nothing special there.  I found it to be a tad pricey for Queens - beers were in the $5-6 range and there were no specials.  We ordered a side of fries ($4) to munch on and they weren't that great - you could tell they were hand-cut but I think that the oil wasn't hot enough when they were cooked.  

    Oh! And they have "English Peas" on the menu as a side - I wonder if these are the same as "mushy peas" served in British pubs?

    I'll definitely be back since this is fairly close to home and a good spot for a drink.

    Solid neighborhood pub. The BF and I have been here a few times to watch Sunday night football, and it's a nice chill atmosphere. We've managed to snag seats in a cozy streetside room off to the side of the main bar with comfy sofas and its own TV, which is great for watching the game and having some pub food.

    Beer selection is fairly standard. The Blue Point Toasted Lager is surprisingly good, and they also have some Brooklyn selections on tap. The food I've tried has ranged from decent (the quesadilla) to amazingly tasty (the chicken pot pie).

    I definitely recommend the place if you live or happen to be in the area.

    $0.25 wings during games.  Done.  I don't normally watch sports, but I love snacks, especially cheap and delicious snacks that require icy cold draft beers.  I generally learn at least 1-3 fun facts about sports during my snack time, so all in all its very worthwhile.

    So the wings at Saints and Sinners come in varieties of buffalo, mild, medium, or hot and also bbq if I'm not mistaken.  Last night my partner in crime and I got medium and hot, and both were delicious.  I'm glad we got both because the hot was more than bearable, but the medium was a nice break, but still scrumptious.  New Castle on draft is a big bonus for me as well.  Nice bar staff, classier feeling place with dark wood everywhere.

    Live music often, there was a man singing with a audio track karaoke style.  Technically live singing, don't know if I would call it live music - but lots of people dancing.  I support people having a good time.  Rock on Saints and Sinners goers.

    I wish Saints and Sinners was in my neighborhood. I would certainly be a regular.

    From my very first visit I was made to feel at home with a warm welcome: what can I get you today. Reasonable price Bud Lite. Checked on me during my first beer and when I was ready, quickly served my next beer. All with a smile and courteous service. WOW I must be in Kansas.....................No Woodside..............

    The place is a square bar with an island in the middle for their bottle display. Bar stools surround the bar and along the wall on two sides. There is a small front room and a small rear room with table service that fits about 8 to 10 tables or about 30 plus customers. TVs throughout and well place with no blind spots.

    This is "Cheers" in Woodside. You know that saying " everyone knows your name", well the bartender certainly knew it 3 weeks later on my next visit.

    You can come here solo, with friends, on a date, with family or that weekend afternoon to watch the NYJ beat the NYG football game. Just anytime.

    This is a great Irish Bar with all the standards: Guinness, Bud, Heineken, nothing exotic. Great beer pricing $4 to $6. Drinks and wine $6 plus.

    I have only been here for drinks, but they do serve food. Burgers look great. Fries fresh cut and cooked golden. I saw a steak and it looked as good as anything served in any major Steakhouse. Can't wait to try.

    This is a wonderful Irish Bar that fits that "Quiet Man" feeling.

    They have the best pint of Guinness in town and even won an award for it. They have losts of tv's with soccer (& sometimes rugby) on every day. The waitress was cool too and was quick with fresh pint when I was running low. All around a good place to grab a pint o' plain!

    We spent New Years here one year when we didn't want to fight the Manhattan crowds. It's a pretty authentic Irish pub in a real Irish neighborhood. I've always found the staff helpful and friendly but they do seem to favor the regulars a bit -- which is probably true of any Irish pub.

    I've recommended this bar to many people. You can always make a friend there. But for food, head to Donovan's for their burger. I'm not really big on the food here.

    First bar in Queens that I've been to!

    It seems like an authentic Irish bar--the bartender had a slight accent, he was friendly but he did forget about my beer refill and I had to ask him 20 minutes later.

    You can sit on all sides of bar since it's a circle. They offer food late night for a seemingly okay price ($20 for burger and fries and an order of chicken wings). Okay selection of beer, not too badly priced.

    A very chill place to talk and drink with friends. Bathrooms are pretty clean too.

    They have Wednesday trivia night but you have to get there at 9 pm to participate. Ladies night is Thursday.

    Just last year I would have given this place at least 4 stars but the last time I went in, the bartender was rude during every interaction and they don't have Magner's cider on draft anymore. We left quickly.

    I love this neighborhood Irish bar. Just to illustrate the kind of neighborhood place this is, when i moved to Woodside, the person who I was renting my apt from had gone to CA for work. He left the keys at the bar, with my name on an envelope. Took the 7 down, and picked my apt keys from the bar, no problem.

    This is not just a bar, but let me tell you that this place does NOT get the accolades for the excellent food that it serves. Their shepherd's pie is the best in the neighborhood, hands down as well as their Irish Breakfast (as recommended by my landlord who is actually Irish from Dublin). Mash potatoes are STELLAR. During the World Cup games, they've been serving 25 cent wing specials, and these wings are fabulous. You can tell that they're not from some frozen Costco bag but are actually made in house.

    And I can second the girl who reads at the bar. There was a weekend in which I dragged a bookbag full of term papers to grade and just sat in the front room for the afternoon grading term papers with a pint of New Castle. That's the kind of relaxed neighborhood joint this is.  

    Now I'll just have to see if this is a place I can write for a few hours in the afternoon too :)

    My fiance and I love this bar.  We just moved to Woodside about a month ago and have tried several bars in the area.  This is by far our favorite.  They have a nice draft beer selection.  Also, the burger that I had was juicy and delicious, even if it was a pretty messy.  They could have a better menu selection because it was pretty limited.  It is definitely a bar first and a restaurant second.  The live music is good but can be a little loud.  The bartenders are super nice and the crowd is chill.

    Great neighborhood place.

    I'm no saint - so that should give you an idea of where that leaves me...  In any case this place was actually a load of fun - there was live music and plenty of cold beer - what more could you ask for?

    Everyone there was super nice.  The bar area seems perpetually loaded but the bartenders are quick to get you served.

    Located right under the #7 tracks, you don't hear any train noises (at least I didn't).
    Go- have fun!

    I've only been to this bar a few times, and i regret that.  I should come here a lot more.  The atmosphere is great.  It's truly a neighborhood bar where all the patrons are just so friendly, even though when you walk in, everyone turns their head and stares.  They also have live music most weekend nights so it drowns out the sound of the '7' train as it passes over the bar.

    L-O-V-E this place.  It's my local watering hole.  If you haven't stopped in, you're missing out.  Some of the best live music in Woodside.  Great jukebox and tap beers.  The bartenders are very friendly and "in tune" with their neighborhood.  Great place to chill in the summer time and warm up in the wintertime.  Nice fireplace in the front and couches to hang with friends.  By far, the BEST french fries in Woodside.

    I have always passed by this place and not felt the urge to go in. Finally, some friends wanted to go there, so I did with my girl. At first we had an airport table and I wasn't thinking much of the place. We soon got up and moved to the lounge area by the front windows. After this point we were all having a blast. The seats were comfortable and the drinks were moderately priced. I liked the bar configuration which was four-sided with tv monitors all around and the bartenders were friendly.  They had live music playing which was a definite bonus because they weren't a half bad cover band.  They had the usual beers on tap that you would find at an Irish pub. I did not eat here but did drink plenty of Guinness.

    This is a nice place to begin a DYL/SYF (stuff your face).  

    I liked the laid-back attitude of the place.  The island bar is a nice touch, and a lot better for socializing, I can imagine.  We spent our evening in the cozy sitting room to your left as you enter.  The great thing is that the room is cleverly shielded from the crowd outside.  You almost forget you're right under the El, or 7 train.

    I ordered some potato skins to tide me over before our food excursion later on.  I was a little disappointed when I realized I just paid $9 for three potato skins, with only cheese.  This made me sad.  But it was cool to get table service and our waitress was nice enough.

    The JUKEBOX:  something crazy where you had to download the songs.  The download would take about as long as the duration of the song.  Que?  I longed for my childhood days where all I had to do was slip a quarter in the slot, press a button, a 45 of my song would come down, and the needle would scratch and pop its way through the song.  

    ~~sigh~~  

    Nothing where drinking is involved should ever be that complicated.

    Saints and Sinners is great if you are in the neighborhood, sampling some of the abundant Latin cuisine, and you want to round the night off with a nice drink or five.

    met some of the yelp posse here for a couple of beers, queens style.

    beers were good, service was a bit slow, but as we took off to go to de mole, the place was hopping.

    not the best place ever, but certainly not the worst.

    This is my go-to spot in Woodside.  On weekends they frequently have live music (acoustic guitar cover bands typically), and it's always a good time.  They have an island-bar which makes it very easy to order drinks, as well as a lounge area in the front where you can settle in depending on your mood.  Their dining room is cozy and their food is surprisingly delicious for a pub.  The stand-out entrees are the Roast Chicken as well as the Irish Curry Chicken.  I've never been disappointed with an evening spent here with friends.  And how do you not love a pub who still buys back?  I heart Saints & Sinners...

    This place is in my Top 5 bars of all time.

    Kieran and Ronin (Head Bartenders/Owners/Neighborhood Sweethearts) have done wonders with this place since they took it over. The look is the same, the prices (I don't know how) are the same, the eclectic and always amusing crowd is the same. A lady by herself can go and read at the bar, knowing that any unwelcome attention will be batted away by the super-nice and super big bouncer. Or she can have a chat with some pleasant neighborhood folks. You can always judge a place on the quality of the regulars.

    HOWEVER, the menu has been revamped (same items, better ingredients). The burger now can rightfully compete with Donovan's, the Friar's Grill is fresh and greasy-in-a-good-way, and the Salmon Platter is to die for.

    They even upgraded the quality of the musical acts (Dan Donnolly is a personal fave).

    Comfortable. Dark. Nondescript. Trivia night is kind of hard if you're not a sports buff, and the "selection" that comes with the trivia is greasy and inedible. But overall a decent neighborhood bar.

    Saints and Sinners satisfies all the major requirements for a neighborhood Irish pub: mellow crowd, occasional pub musicians, decent draft selection, and a decent space. There's also several televisions broadcasting sports for those so interested. Most key is the island bar, which is way too under-utilized in New York. On a recent Friday night, Saints and Sinners was no more hopping than the other Irish pubs nearby, but the island bar gave the place a better sense of atmosphere than just a couple dozen people strung out down a bar. It also means you're not just staring at the wall of liquors and drafts when you look ahead. It makes Saints and Sinners a little something special.

    It's basically a bar with a teeny weeny spot in the back with tables and a food menu. The food is good, a little more on the expensive side for the area. nice atmosphere... all in all i'll go back if for nothing else than to have a pint...

    I just moved into the area and celebrated the new apartment with the new roomie by visiting Saints and Sinners for a beer.  We'll be back!  Mellow quiet bar with a good selection on the jukebox, friendly bartender, and lots of cute boys...!  We're excited to live nearby.
