  1. The first place I went when I moved to New York 13 years ago. Got my first production gigs there, and hid away after bad dates. wonder if any of the old guys who grew up giants fans before they moved away are still with us.

    Anyone know of anywhere similar in London? Know there’s a phillies bar…

  2. Spent so much of the 2014 postseason at Finnerty’s and had a blast. Fantastic news!

  3. I was at Finnerty’s with my brother and some friends when Travis Ishikawa hit that walk-off homer and sent us to the World Series that year. I’ll never forget that thrill and the way all of us SF and Bay folks just went nuts there that night.

  4. Being in New York during the 2014 world series and not being able to participate in the celebrations in SF would have bummed me out if it wasn’t for Finnertys.

    During game 7, you walk in and they gave you It’s Its on the way in. Place was packed and electric. It was cool to also see these two old gentlemen with their New York Giants gear who never stopped loving the Giants when they moved.

    I remember I told my girlfriend at the time (she wasn’t from SF) to get there early at X time because they won’t let you in if it gets too full. She was late.

    I remember losing my mind that Madison Bumgarner was coming out in relief, and she called me saying that they won’t allow her in and for me to come outside.

    I did the calculation. This relationship is not going to last but the Giants are FOREVER! I ain’t going anywhere!

    Terrible boyfriend I know but I definitely don’t regret my decision; luckily I found my wife (born and raised in the city) where that wouldn’t be a problem.

  5. Awesome! I have so many special memories of being at Finnerty’s during the 2012 and 2014 postseasons.

  6. In 2021, 2022, and 2023 i was in NYC while the Niners played MNF. I was always bummed i could never do Finnerty’s. This is great news.

  7. Hell yeah! I hope they do the bus trips from the bar to the stadium & back with food/drinks.
    It was amazing!

  8. Being in the heart of midtown will be a different vibe, but I’m excited to stop in and check out the new spot

  9. Watched game 5 of the 2010 WS there. Must have been 500 people all crushed in…you couldn’t really make it over to the bathroom. The place EXPLODED when Wilson struck out Cruz to end it, never been happier to be covered with the half-drunk beers from the 30 people nearest to me!

  10. Watched a game there when I was in town one time. It was awesome to watch with other Giants fans in a different city! Glad they reopened!

  11. Can’t wait to go back! I got back into the giants in 2012 and was living in NYC. Finnerty’s was home away from home.

  12. lol the new location is pretty much right in Koreatown. Perfect Jung Hoo Lee synergy

  13. Amazing news! I happened to be in NYC and watched NLDS 2016 games and Bochy’s last game as well. Loved the original space!
