WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:

• No Reservations! Doors open and seating starts 2 HOURS before kickoff for playoff games. First come, first seated. Folks start lining up outside 10-15 minutes before seating begins so plan accordingly!
  
• Inside the bar, we can accommodate 300+ people. We’ve got BOTH floors of the bar for the playoffs. Seating options include solo seats at our center bar, dozens of 4-tops and 2-tops, loads of family style tables for 8-10. We combine smaller parties like we’ve always done — so feel free to come with a group or solo and we’ll find you a spot!
  
• We also have TONS of standing room all around the bar for those that show up closer to kickoff, plus a second floor that will be open for playoff games.
  
• Kids are welcome to join our watch parties. It does get a little rowdy but we love our young Browns supporters and will do our best to make them feel welcomed.
  
• Get drunk. Order lots of food. Tip well. Don’t be an idiot.
  
• NO FANS FROM TEAMS WE’RE PLAYING THAT WEEK! If for some stupid reason you’re cheering for our opponent, or wearing their gear, you will NOT BE PERMITTED to watch the game (this counts for any friends or significant others that Browns fans might bring). ZERO EXCEPTIONS.
  
• NO STEELERS FANS ALLOWED FOR ANY GAME! They are strictly prohibited, mocked relentlessly and cannot enter our establishment. We will kick you out if you are found out. ZERO EXCEPTIONS.

Exciting news: we’ve moved our Cleveland Browns Backers Bar to a beautiful new location in NYC: Haswell Green’s.

We’re pumped to continue to host NYC watch parties for EVERY Cleveland Browns game this season!

Our new location is easy to get to via public transit: it’s a 2-3 block walk from many subways (C E, 1, B D, N R W).

Doors open & seating starts 90 mins before every kickoff (eg, 11:30am for 1pm games).

As usual, no reservations! First come, first seated. Smart to get there early as we’re the largest Browns Backers chapter in the country.

We’ve got the entire place to ourselves at Haswell Green’s every Sunday during the NFL season, with tons of great seating and standing room options by their gorgeous center bar.

Come with a group of friends or come solo and make new friends!

You’ll love our Cleveland safe-haven, with giant TVs, massive projectors and full game-day audio (only playing the Cleveland Browns), a talented team of bartenders and servers, plus gameday food & drink specials.

And most importantly: absolutely no other fans & no other games being shown on Sundays!

Questions? You can shoot us an email or DM us on Instagram and we’ll get back to you ASAP.

And when in doubt, please consult our Big Apple Browns Backers 10 Commandments.

2023 marks our 13th season as a Browns Backers bar in NYC! We are the ONLY Cleveland Browns Backer location in New York City and the most exciting (and rowdiest) chapter in the entire country.

We’ll be hosting NYC watch parties for EVERY Cleveland Browns game this season!
