I was last in the St. Andrews Bar back in 2003, when on a kilted coast-to-coast tour of the USA and, in the six or seven days spent in NYC, I believe we called in there for liquid refreshment, probably six times. It was then, and probably still is, a really friendly and welcoming establishment where the staff were all kilted (apart from the lady Manager, whose name I forget, who wore trews!!).
No visit to NYC is complete wthout calling in at 120, W 44th Street - just around the corner from Times Square.
Take care,
Ham.

Hi Gilbert, you are too kind!
I was invited to take part in the 'Dressed to Kilt' charity fashion show at last year's Tartan Week in NYC, but I was unable to leave the United Kingdom at that time. The promise of a similar invitation for the 2008 event was made - but I've heard nothing, so I guess I blotted my copybook with that one! I should love to be there again, especially during Tartan Week, but it doesn't look like it's going to happen this year. I'm hosting a kilts weekend at my home in June, after which I am pretty much committed to visiting Scotland and then Palm Springs CA in September/October. These trips all cost serious money and I think I'm going to have to give NYC a miss this year. I'll try to schedule something for 2009.
Take care,
Ham.
