emily mcgillJuly 22, 2015with over 150 whiskey options on the menu, this is the perfect upscale hole in the wall for brown liquor lovers. the bartenders are friendly and know how to mix a mean cocktail.
The Corcoran GroupAugust 9, 2013If you love whiskey, come here ASAP. The bartender is extremely knowledgable, and can recommend you types if whiskey that you've never had before.
The only whiskey hold out in Midtown West worth patronizing. Well thought scotch & rye selections, good music (usually something Sinatra esque), and some surprises that are not on the menu (just ask).
Chelsea RenaudNovember 6, 2015Over in Hell’s Kitchen, this little bar specializes in whiskey – and has a huge selection. If you’re into brown liquor and find yourself on the West Side, this is your spot.
Brian ChalkFebruary 28, 2013Relaxed and chill. Knowledge and excellent all-round bartender (Daniel). Perfect place for a whiskey/scotch aficionado. I live in the neighborhood, and will be back.- HectorApril 3, 2016Knowledgeable bartender on great selection of single malt scotch, whiskey, and bourbon. Small, cozy, intimate spot for great conversation.
Patrick KanaleyDecember 10, 2013Perfect place for a low-key, quiet bar conversation. One of my top choices in Hell's Kitchen. The bartenders are very knowledgeable and will guide you through whiskey choices too. A true gem.
Friendly service, intimate setting. Be sure to stop by in January or February as all the exotic distilleries ship their one bottle per year in the early months.- Discovered via Yelp! & fell in love. Best brown liquor troves anywhere. Jeff the bartender will not steer you wrong. Loved all his suggestions. If you love bourbons, scotches & ryes - you must try!
Eric TashOctober 25, 2014Very quaint and unassuming place in HK. My coworker brought me here and immediately feel in love. Extensive whiskey and rye selection. Highly recommend if you're a connoisseur or novice.
Denis SosnovtsevDecember 16, 2015Dark and intimate atmosphere, with a focus on the wall of whiskey. The ambience and whiskey selection are great, but you pay through the roof for 'em. Talking $17 a whiskey. 😬
Andrey BagdasaryanFebruary 4, 2019370 whiskey selection to choose from. Great vibe, nice music and tiny space (in a good way).
- Ashley MowreyJune 26, 2018All whiskey, all the time. The bartender was a little gruff, but his skills were legitimate and he was professional. The environment is small and intimate, but emphasis on small.
After many years I've found out Daniel is no longer here. But Josh is more than capably filling in. Ask him for a recommendation
Natalie AOctober 7, 2016Friendly bartenders who can help you decide what to drink. Not usually crowded as most places are in the area.
Becca TothFebruary 8, 2013Come to this classy hole in the wall to experience whisky from around the world. The bartender is knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming.- jon ferrerAugust 23, 2014wonderful selection of American, Irish, Scotch whiskies and beyond. Also, they have Pappy but you'll pay dearly for it.
Trae FOctober 14, 2017Cozy, friendly, and very whiskey like. We ordered several rounds of old fashioneds only to find out they were $20 a pop.
Whiskey, scotch, bourbon, service, they let you order in food
MarthaFebruary 7, 2015a large selection of bourbon, rye and whiskey. they also offer tasting paddles. no beers on tap, only bottles.
Dipanshu SharmaAugust 11, 2013Love the scotch collection. They have an Indian whiskey that was rated top 3 in the world. Also check out the octomore
Rob AtkinsonFebruary 13, 2016The bartenders are the menu here. Tell them what you like and they'll come up with something for you
- Paul MarinMay 20, 2013Great selection of whiskeys and tequilas. I recommend the Hudson Baby Bourbon.
LilySeptember 14, 2014A bourbon lovers' paradise. They even have Pappy stashed on the top shelf (for a hefty price)
Kathleen OlivaDecember 31, 2013Tried to order a Sazernac Old Fashioned and a Templeton Manhattan. The bartender literally scoffed at us. It's whiskey. It's not that serious, dude.
Kellen BarrangerSeptember 5, 2013Best whiskey list I've seen anywhere near Times. And it's ALL whiskey not just scotch.
Zack SheppardMay 19, 2015Good selection and a nice space, but everything is about $4 more expensive than it should be.
A wide whiskey selection, and knowledgeable bartenders.
NatalyaMay 29, 2013Ask the bartender for Pringles with your drinks...you'll get three cans if you are lucky- emily mcgillFebruary 20, 2015Over 150 whiskers behind the bar, friendly bartenders and a small space so it always feels intimate.
- If Daniel is here have him make you a Manhattan, his choice. You won't go wrong
Adam SchuitSeptember 27, 2015Actually a great selection of whiskeys just not a nice bar. Way too dark and the glassware and ice cubes aren't up to par
Ritchie YaoJanuary 5, 2020Terrible service. Bartender was more obsessed with macin on single ladies than serve customers. Also the whiskey selection was weak tbh.
Specify what liquor you want, otherwise the bartenders will choose the most expensive to rip you off.
