They make their own syrups right at the bar, including the delectable Lavender Honey. Don't order off the menu - just let Reynolds choose something for you.
Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. (That phonebooth thing? Pretty cool, right?) Ask the bartender to suggest a drink. It'll be excellent.
get the lime frozen daiquiri downstairs, upstairs try Bocaditos De Sandwiches, if you want something new try Toña Beer (Nicaragua) and Carib Lager. Cevice de Pulpo was good and Pork ribs w guava glaze
Joaquin Simo and the other vest-clad bartenders at this East Village spot have an encyclopedic knowledge of cocktails.
Go through the Japanese restaurant and to the unmarked door that faces you as you get to the hostess stand. No parties more than 4. The specialty cocktails are impressive here.
many cocktails available that aren't on the menu, and the gin cocktails here are awesome. Definitely a destination for gin lovers.
This place really cares about environment, cups/mugs for all drinks, bags for all bottles, really pushing the speakeasy persona, good crowd, reasonable prices, great ambience, nice couches
Ever been to the catacombs? This is like it, but better—there’s beer. You enter into a dim, tomb-like underground. The beers are imported and largely monk-made. Ask for a Trappist recommendation.
great spot for an early drink, as it is a very small space and the later it gets the less space avalaible. One of the few great speakeasies in NYC with mind blowing food to match.
Fort Knox and Gold Rush drinks. Heaven. Stand in the kitchen to watch them make drinks- better than having a table!
Get a seat at the bar and ask your friendly bartender for something not on the menu.
cool speakeasy bar. there's no sign, you go down the stairs and the entrance is at the back of the building. there's a secret room behind a bookshelf. fridays and saturdays are 25+ to enter.
Don't try to pop in unannounced at this hidden speakeasy. Appointments are required, but once inside the knowledgable bartender will create original, masterful cocktails at your request.
Don't order from the menu. Tell your server what you like and have the mixologist surprise. I suggest anything with fresh ginger. Yummmm
Enjoy your cocktail in an environment with a speakeasy feel. Each cocktail will feature hand-cut ice, house-made mixers and fresh-squeezed juices.
The drinks take time to get to you, but they are worth the wait. Bourbon lovers, try the Old Fashioned.
It's pristine (the carefully constructed cocktails are excellent), pretentious (you won’t find a sign on the door–just look for the long lines) and, ultimately, completely and unarguably gorgeous. Read more.
Bar seat is a must. Order off the menu or your specialty drink. Watch the making of a sensation... your drink. You sat at the bar right?
Best Hotel Bar - Best of Miami 2010 - Described as a "jewel box," the lounge transports you to something akin to an obscure New York hot spot.
No we don't recommend buying "Wednesday Pie." However, this downstairs speakeasy in Larimer Square is sure to impress.
W&G is accessed via a hidden entrance behind a moving bookshelf (pull the Savoy one!). Once inside, ask for the Blackberry Sage Smash with Knob Creek/ lemon/ sugar. Read more.
This is one of the coolest places in San Diego. It is tough to get in, but worth it. You will have to send a text to ask for reservations. Here is the number: 619.888.4713
Ask for a Ramos Gin Fizz (if you drink gin), otherwise tell the Bar Maestros what your poison is and let them take it from there.
Favorite Cocktail so far is the "Cucumber Gimlet": Vodka + Elderflower + Lime Juice + Orange Bitters + Sparkling White Wine + Cucumber Sliver = Amazeballs!
