- I highly recommend the Mata Hari -- burbon, mezcal, citrus and a splash of ginger beer. It's a flavorful cocktail that is sweet, tart and smokey that is surprising harmonious and a delight to drink.
John ANovember 15, 2014Great quality cocktails! One of better mixologist locations in NYC, cozy and warm location, but gets crowded quickly. Recommend the Mata Hari and the Sleeping Car.
Adrian PhillipsAugust 26, 2017Excellent cocktails, their take on the Martini with St. German (Dragomiroff) is one of my new favorite drinks. Small bar with limited table seating, it's a perfect spot for Date Night. Great food too!- Sam BrownAugust 24, 2014Tastefully themed, it actually feels like you are sitting in an old train dining car. I'd recommend the Death on the Orient Express cocktail, then go read Agatha Christies similarly titled 1934 novel!
Justin Van Der HornJune 15, 2013The bartenders choice is never a ba choice. They make great cocktails you wouldn't think of yourself. Don't deprive yourself of the cheese platter and youre a fool if you don't get the veggie panini
This is my favorite cocktail bar in the entire city. Never jam packed, never pretentious, just good on all angles. If you'll find me at any cocktails bar, it's here or Dear Irving.
John AntonyJuly 6, 2013Two to tango Agatha and Danube FTW, this place is awesome, it's quite classy, good bartenders and brilliant drinks . Perfect place for cocktails , really impressed
- Sam BrownJuly 16, 2015Like pomegranate? Try the Monaco beer cocktail, it's pomegranate, soda, and pilsner. A truly refreshing, deliciously easy drink.
Jen RiosNovember 18, 2017The drinks are good although a step down from a lot of the cocktail bars in the area.It's quaint and easy going. They have small plates. Had the meats plate and was not a fan. I still say try the bar- a cool cocktail bar in its own right - it's designed like a train car! - but also perfect for its proximity to the Spotted Pig, which usually requires a lengthy wait
Amalia GoutakiMay 21, 2017Love this bar. Dating spot in the West Village. On a weekday it's pretty quiet-you can easily be seated. From Russia with love is my favorite drink!
Jesse LaneSeptember 12, 2018Nice quiet little bar in the WV with great cocktails. You can pick from their list, or have the bartender mix up a bespoke cocktail for you based on your flavor preferences.- DoubleDeuceMarch 3, 2015My favorite thing about this place is that it's definitely a West Village crowd but it's a little out of the way so not too obnoxious.
Devon LawrenceJanuary 14, 2016Love this spot!! Super cute and feels like you are going back in time. The experience and the ambiance are great!
Eric ShineSeptember 28, 2018Great artosonal cocktails. Very professional and knowledgeable staff. Themed to look like an old rail car.
No Leftovers Jackie GebelJanuary 11, 2017Awesome little cocktail bar in the west village! They create custom cocktails- great for dates
Andrew LitvakFebruary 28, 2015Really great French-style ambiance. The cocktails are well made, and the food is small but delicious.
Paul SanwaldAugust 23, 2015The Hercules is a unique, fantastic drink if you like Rye and Scotch (there's scotch foam!)- My favorite bar in the west village. Try the Danube...awesome ambience, very cozy and quaint...
Bobby NooromidJanuary 6, 2013The Danube tastes even better and more refreshing in a rocks glass. And it looks like it's/actually is a greater amount as well.
Margarita KrupDecember 20, 2016Cocktails were ok, tried From Russia with Love. The services was bad, took 30 min to get the bartenders attention to order another drink. Nice ambiance.
Kathleen CorlessOctober 18, 2015Amazing cocktails, super sexy environment. If you like sweet, try the sleeper car
Dolapo FalolaDecember 8, 2013you can order shots of raki here. this is something i can strongly recommend that you (not) do.- They happen to have a relatively secret food menu. Just enough for a meal.
Julia MesmeriOctober 16, 2013I'm kinda obsessed with the St. Polten here. Every other cocktail is just as amazing.
Order the secret cocktail, "172 noll" from the bartender with hand tattoos. You'll thank me.
Duane Fernandez JrAugust 27, 2010Corey..... Not only has he made me the best cocktails of the year..... He has Stories to go along with them.... Very inspired and motivated.
Lizzie MartinNovember 4, 2018The cocktails here were not as good as the reviews lead me to expect. Also was here with a large group and the waiter was rather rude because of the group size, despite us trying to be flexible.
