The lines have been drawn: this is New England patriot territory right in the heart of the Big Apple. They say you can't judge a bar based on the size of its nachos, but Professor Thom's carries a big stick when it comes to sports bars. There are also other things we are impressed by, with 17 high definition televisions and a 41 foot bar ready to quench your every thirsty desire. During World Series games, you might become more aware that the allegiance of this "Boston in New York" bar has been pledged to the Red Sox. However, if the Sox aren't playing, they are equally happy to cheer on other teams (especially the Patriots and Bruins). How is that for sportsmanship? Just fyi: Professor Thom's is named for a mixology magician named Jerry Thomas so make sure you sample some of his potions no matter what side of aisle you're on.

- Sports Bars: "They have an amazing loyalty program. The more you eat and drink, the more points you get which can be traded in for everything from free cases of beer to front row Red Sox tickets."
- Best for Sports Bars Because: Yes this is definitely where proper and not so proper Bostonians can scream out loud and raise the roof in New York City.
