The Gaf West

Several New York Dart League teams play out of this Hell's Kitchen bar, and the dartboards stay busy most nights. Down in the basement, Bomb Shelter Comedy runs a free stand-up show on Thursdays at 8, in a room small enough (about 15 seats) that comics work the crowd directly, with past lineups pulling from Comedy Cellar and Comedy Central. Upstairs it's a straightforward Irish bar, walk-in only.
