Bravo: The best cocktails in Manhattan! Hidden down a dark staircase, it's great for a date, or just for after work unwinding. Amazing mint juleps. -Anita Lo, Top Chef Masters

15 Vanderbilt Ave (Grand Central Terminal), New York, NY
Cocktail Bar · Midtown East · 269 tips and reviews
The Corcoran Group: Enter through Cipriani on the balcony at Grand Central & you'll feel as if you have entered a bygone era. Drinks are expensive ($15 martini) but the atmosphere is worth it. Reserve a table in advance.
67 Clinton St (btw Rivington & Stanton), New York, NY
Bar · Lower East Side · 28 tips and reviews
Tony Powe: Sangria and/or house-infused vodkas a must! The early bird gets to snag a booth and happy hour prices (till 9pm!) Great bar food til 10pm except Mondays for some reason!
Dee Phunk: One of the best subterranean spots in the city. Since they don't have noise complaints worries, some parties have rocked til 5am. Make sure you know what party you're attending when the doorman asks.
Dustin Hassard: Loved this place until I brought a group of friends. Anything goes normally, but wear shorts and suddenly the bouncer treats you like trash not a regular. No more XIX on my nightly agenda.
Noah Lucas: British secret version of Knee High Stocking Co, Death & Co, or Trick Dog (minus the crowd). Head down the dark staircase and ask for Christine.
