Devils and Islanders fans have Kelly&#8217;s Sports Bar, which lists both teams. The Beer Garage West Village is five subway stops from the Garden.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tbg-gf\">\n<strong>Gluten-free food is in Brooklyn, not on this page<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Every bar here is in Manhattan, and our Manhattan room at 118 Christopher Street runs a standard kitchen whose menu labels no dish gluten-free. The Beer Garage kitchen that is 100 per cent gluten-free is in Park Slope, Brooklyn, at 148 5th Avenue. Beer is a separate matter, since most of it is brewed from barley. We have not looked at the kitchens of the other Manhattan bars listed here, so ask them directly; with celiac disease, the staff are your best source, and nothing on this page is medical advice.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"october\">The Rangers&#8217; October, game by game<\/h2>\n<p>The Rangers opened the regular season on the road in Boston, and one of their three games from October 22 to October 31 is at the Garden.

The October 22 and 24 trips to Toronto and Ottawa are when Manhattan&#8217;s Canadian hockey bar, covered below, is worth knowing. And on Thursday, November 5 all three local teams start at 7:00 PM: the Rangers host the Flyers on MSG Network, the Devils host the Blues on MSG Sportsnet, and the Islanders host the Hurricanes on ESPN+, Hulu and Disney+ only, so expect a divided room and ask which game a bar will show.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"channel\">Which channel to ask for<\/h2>\n<p>MSG Network, the Rangers&#8217; local channel, carries all 6 games from October 22 to November 5; none of them is national-only.

That one question settles most October nights.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"in-writing\">Manhattan bars that promise hockey in writing<\/h2>\n<p>We read Manhattan sports bars&#8217; own websites for the words hockey, NHL or a team name.

One caution before you rely on it: the page still invites fans to enjoy the Centennial season, which was 2025-26, so treat it as last season&#8217;s list until the team updates it, and call before you go.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tbg-scroll\">\n<table>\n<caption>Manhattan bars on the New York Rangers Tap Takeover page, as listed on the Rangers website on September 22, 2026.

They are on the list because the team put them there. The Rangers keep a separate bar takeover page for the Stanley Cup Playoffs, which is not a promise for October.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"other-teams\">Islanders, Devils and visiting fans<\/h2>\n<h3>Islanders fans<\/h3>\n<p>The Islanders&#8217; own bar list, Isles on Tap, names one Manhattan bar: Overlook, 225 East 44th Street, in Midtown East. Kelly&#8217;s Sports Bar also lists the Islanders on its site. Most Islanders games are on MSG Sportsnet, but the Thursday, October 22 home game against the Los Angeles Kings, 7:30 PM ET, streams only on ESPN+, Hulu and Disney+, so ask whether a bar can show it.<\/p>\n<h3>Devils fans<\/h3>\n<p>The Devils&#8217; bar network page returned &#8220;not found&#8221; when we checked on September 22, 2026, so there is no team list to lean on. In Manhattan, Kelly&#8217;s Sports Bar is the one bar we found whose own site names the Devils. On Thursday, October 22 the Devils host the Anaheim Ducks at 7:00 PM ET, the same hour as the Rangers&#8217; game in Toronto, so any single-screen room will have to choose.<\/p>\n<h3>Canadian and other visiting fans<\/h3>\n<p>If your team plays in Canada, The Canuck in Chelsea is built around you. The Rangers visit Toronto and Ottawa on October 22 and 24 and host Edmonton on November 1. Buffalo fans have Kelly&#8217;s, which calls itself the NYC home of the Sabres.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"our-room\">Our West Village room on a hockey night<\/h2>\n<p>The Beer Garage does not claim a team, does not publish a screen count and is on no team&#8217;s bar list. What the West Village room offers a hockey fan in Manhattan is location and a closing time you can plan around.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tbg-pick\">\n<p><strong>The Beer Garage West Village, 118 Christopher Street.<\/strong> Our website footer lists Monday to Thursday 3:00 PM to 11:00 PM ET, Friday 2:00 PM to midnight, Saturday noon to midnight and Sunday 1:00 PM to 11:00 PM; our Google listing shows different hours, so call before an early visit.

Christopher St-Stonewall is three minutes from the door, and the 1 train reaches 34 St-Penn Station in five stops: 14th, 18th, 23rd and 28th Streets, then Penn Station.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Also good for<\/strong> the Sunday home game on November 1 at 6:00 PM ET, which leaves 300 minutes before our footer closing time.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Skip if<\/strong> you want a room full of Rangers jerseys; Mustang Harry&#8217;s and the Tap Takeover bars are built for that. Skip us too if you need gluten-free food, which is in Park Slope.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Possible downside<\/strong> a small room with no booking link. Groups of more than four should call 646-490-4301 first.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"tbg-fig\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/IMG_2355-800.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/IMG_2355-1600.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 773px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/IMG_2355-1600.webp\" alt=\"Chalkboard drink boards, a dartboard and high-top tables inside The Beer Garage West Village, one place to watch NHL hockey in Manhattan\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3\"><figcaption>Chalkboard drink lists and the dartboard at 118 Christopher Street.

Playwright Celtic Pub on 8th Avenue, Dave and Buster&#8217;s Times Square, The Canuck in Chelsea and Kelly&#8217;s Sports Bar also say they show hockey. The Rangers list 13 Manhattan Tap Takeover bars, and The Beer Garage West Village is five stops from the Garden on the 1 train.<\/p>\n<h3>Is there a Rangers bar near Madison Square Garden?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. Mustang Harry&#8217;s at 352 7th Avenue is on the Rangers&#8217; Tap Takeover list and says on its own site that it shows Rangers games; it recommends booking online for home games. Other Tap Takeover bars in Midtown include Tailor Public House, Pig n Whistle Pub, Versa, The Pioneer and The Celly.<\/p>\n<h3>Where can Devils or Islanders fans watch in Manhattan?<\/h3>\n<p>Kelly&#8217;s Sports Bar, with locations at 1154 2nd Avenue and 12 Avenue A, says it shows the Islanders and the Devils. Islanders fans can also use Overlook at 225 East 44th Street, the one Manhattan bar on the team&#8217;s Isles on Tap list. The Devils&#8217; bar network page was not available on September 22, 2026.<\/p>\n<h3>What channel are Rangers games on in October 2026?<\/h3>\n<p>MSG Network, which carries all three Rangers games from October 22 to October 26, per the NHL&#8217;s schedule data; none of them is national-only. The October 24 game at Ottawa and the October 26 game against the Kings are also on NHL Network, but ask a bar for MSG Network by name.<\/p>\n<h3>Is The Beer Garage in the West Village a good place to watch hockey?<\/h3>\n<p>For a Rangers fan heading to or from the Garden, yes: it is three minutes from the 1 train, five stops from Penn Station, and a 7:00 PM ET puck drop leaves 240 minutes before our website&#8217;s weeknight closing time. It does not claim a team or publish a screen count, and its kitchen is standard; the gluten-free one is in Park Slope.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"verdict\">The verdict<\/h2>\n<p>For where to watch NHL hockey in Manhattan, the Rangers make it easy and the other teams make you call. On a Rangers night, Mustang Harry&#8217;s is the bar that has said everything a fan wants to hear, and Playwright Celtic Pub is the one still open at 4:00 AM. Islanders fans have Overlook; Devils fans have Kelly&#8217;s; Canadian fans have The Canuck.<\/p>\n<p>And if the night starts or ends at the Garden and you would rather drink somewhere smaller, our West Village room is five stops down the 1 train, open late enough for every Rangers game in October.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"sources\">Sources and references<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/rangers\/fans\/bar-network\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New York Rangers: Tap Takeover locations<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/islanders\/fans\/isles-viewing-parties\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New York Islanders: Isles on Tap<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/devils\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New Jersey Devils<\/a> fan pages, read September 22, 2026.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/rangers\/schedule\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New York Rangers schedule<\/a>, with Islanders and Devils games, from NHL schedule data read October 20, 2026.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mustangharrys.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Mustang Harry&#8217;s<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/playwrightcelticpubnyc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Playwright Celtic Pub<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.daveandbusters.com\/us\/en\/about\/locations\/new-york-city-times-square\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Dave and Buster&#8217;s Times Square<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecanucknyc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">The Canuck<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kellysnyc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Kelly&#8217;s Sports Bar<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bourbonandbranchnyc.com\/before-or-after-msg-events\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Bourbon and Branch<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.overlooknyc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Overlook<\/a>, own websites, read September 22, 2026.<\/li>\n<li>The Beer Garage, <a href=\"\/\">beergarageny.com<\/a>: West Village hours, address and phone.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mta.info\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Metropolitan Transportation Authority<\/a>: the 1 train between Christopher St-Stonewall and 34 St-Penn Station.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"tbg-authorbox\">\n<img class=\"tbg-avatar tbg-avatar-lg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/marina-charny-owner-the-beer-garage.webp\" alt=\"Marina Charny, owner of The Beer Garage\" width=\"96\" height=\"96\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"object-fit:cover;padding:0\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>Marina Charny<\/strong><br \/><span class=\"tbg-meta\">Owner, The Beer Garage (Park Slope and West Village)<\/span><br \/>Put together this Manhattan hockey guide by reading the Rangers&#8217;, Islanders&#8217; and Devils&#8217; own fan pages, then searching Manhattan bar websites for any promise to show the game.
