People give this place one star for being a dive but I’m giving it 5 because it is the ultimate dive and I love it. I search for dives. I live for dives. Pool table in the back. Darts. I asked for the ranger game and was handed the remote for the TV in front of me. When I moved to the back to play pool he put the game on the back TV without me asking. Low key, they have all the good vodka. I’ll be back.

I love set back. Just moved to tarrytown and I quickly learned that setback is the perfect place for a drink after a long hard day. They have a pool table and dark board as well as a great selection of beer and liquors.

Great night at the Set Back Inn! Darts, pool, friendly locals and good conversation. Old school interior, great space for live music :)

Pretty much the only game in town along Main Street as far as a true pub goes. This is basically a local’s dive-bar that has been located there since 1959, and kind of looks like it. We dropped in here for a few minutes over the weekend to watch the last few innings of Sunday’s Yankee game. The walls are all covered in dark woods and aged brown paneling. Jukebox and an old pool table in the back. Some flat screens on the walls around the bar. It’s really one large dark room with a bar to the side and a pool table. Old black and white pictures of past Yankee greats are hanging on the wall along with some neon beer signs and other beer related signage. Not really crowded except for a few of the locals that were hanging out and enjoying themselves. We grabbed a few sodas and just lingered by ourselves off to the side before making our exit after the game ended. The Set Back Inn though has had some Hollywood visits over the years. Several films have shot scenes here including The Good Sheppard and Mona Lisa Smile. They also have occasional live music performed here. It reminds me of one of those local-yokel kind of bars where everyone knows everyone else in town, and each has been going there since they could drink from an early age.

Dive bar. So dive-y they don’t even have any taps, just bottles, cans and liquor. If you have very low expectations you won’t be disappointed. I like to go here after a concert at the Tarrytown Music Hall. Sometimes the road crew from the band show up. Yes, it is that crappy that roadies choose it. I do question some of their bottled beer prices, $ 8 for a Dogfishhead? from a bottle? That’s a little too bourgeoisie for such a dump. But easily avoided. Order a Bud and try to not get in a fight.

Local dive bar. Cold beer, an old pool table. Saturday nights it fills up. No kitchen but they don’t care if you get food delivered. I’m gonna pick up some Chinese and head there now.
