1950s Louisiana decor. Perfect for aperitifs and oysters. Beautiful drinks. And wait-staff. And great bluegrass when i was there
Best service and huuge list of original cocktails. Sweet and professional staff. Parlor on 2nd floor - must visit
Let someone else do all the thinking. Just tell them your preferred spirit and flavor profile and voilà, a delectable cocktail will appear.
If the bar is too crowded, try snagging a seat at the adjoining Library, a room adorned with plush seating and books and an antique spiral staircase from France.
Unique twists on regular cocktails. My personal favorite was the Deacon Blues. The interior is incredible. This spot is worth the wait!
One of the best bars I've ever been to. Ask for the bartender's choice, they won't steer you wrong. Smash of the Titans and the General two must-try choices though.
I love love love this bar. Awesome cocktails. Don't stray too far away from their signatures.. The Alibi or Devils Garden is a great place to start.
Go upstairs to the Japanese restaurant and go left through the unmarked door. Quiet, intimate, and great drinks. Loved the Smoke in Your Face whiskey cocktail - it's exactly what it sounds like.
This place is fun.. It's a staple of Alphabet City .. The bartenders are friendly and prepare great cocktails. Food is delicious as well. We had the Sausage bread and Milk & honey .
Press the bell and a hostess will guide you in! Try the La Reforma if you're looking for something sweet but not too heavy.
Expect perfect oysters, lovingly prepared off-cuts of meat, tangy homemade ferments, and seasonal vegetables. Natural wines, smart-but-not-smart-ass cocktails, and local suds keep everyone loose. Read more.
For when you just can't have another cranberry vodka. Let the expert mixologists at Apothéke Academy teach you a few of the classics, like the Sazerac, French 75 and old-fashioned. Read more.
Cocktail bar that’s unpretentious enough that you could walk in on for a casual drink and the big charcuterie plate, but vibey enough to continue a date night. Drinks made to your taste + Back Patio
Good food, mostly great drinks (stick to the clear liquors). Chicken tacos were excellent. Outdoor area is small but nice on a warm night since it allows for a breeze.
Cozy, dimly lit, not overly crowded. Creative cocktails. Be warned that they only take cash.
Much awe, very love. These cocktails are worth the trip to LIC, in a stylish intimate venue that is dark enough for both dates and indiscretion. 3 inch ice cubes and metal straws keep it classy.
The screen door slam is a great introductory bourbon drink with a good dose of sweetness, but still strong enough for an old-fashioned fan to enjoy.
Truffle popcorn bar snacks and $1 oysters at happy hour. My fave pick for an early weekday cocktail (pay attention to specials)
Best martinis and bar snacks on the UES, not to mention the Bemelman murals play nicely agains the dark space and great jazz trio.
This place is simply awesome. Great atmosphere and open late for a cocktail after dinner at the Spotted Pig.
Definitely come for the half price punch bowl specials for happy hour from 5-7pm on weekdays, it's relatively quiet and the punch tastes great
Awesome scene for singles. Great bartenders. Always have the frozen house cocktail. Always... and waffle fries. You didn't expect such delicious food.
