Amazing service and strong drinks. What more could you want?
Lauren FestaNovember 28, 2014
Good, cozy, holiday vibes
Brendan LewisAugust 7, 2014
Hidden just faraway enough that you don't have to deal with too many pesky tourists!
Jeffrey GlueckApril 24, 2019
Make an advance reservation for a table or don't bother coming. 😉
Nita DrakatosMay 1, 2013
Be careful. There is a little bump on the too step. It's under the carpet. If your going up the stairs too fast you might trip.
Amy CummingsApril 3, 2019
A bit of a pretentious yuppie midtown crowd, but a good place to grab a drink after getting off the train.
Theresa RoldanNovember 29, 2015
The atmosphere is unlike any other. Prohibition at its best.
Kelly CSeptember 14, 2017
How do you charge $25 for a drink and then serve stale pretzel goldfish? It's sad that you pushed out a great business & are trying to get away with doing the bare minimum in such a classic location.
Meg FarmerMay 12, 2015
Great for after work cocktails, but be prepared to spend $
Elmer LandaverdeNovember 25, 2015
Amazing atmosphere! Great for dates
Mike AndersonJuly 15, 2013
Try the prohibition punch...it's outstanding!
Robert Kydd-RobinsonMarch 22, 2015
The Prohibition Punch is $20 but definitely worth it!
joan leeMarch 21, 2013
If you wear jeans make sure to be super pleasant, they may just let you in. :)
Claire BarrettJune 9, 2012
Always a pleasure to come here. Low lighting, comfy seating and good atmosphere.
@MisterHirschJanuary 18, 2011
Swank cocktail place... Must try the Prohibition Punch. Also, don't forget to look up and check-out the ceiling. Beautiful spot.
Gregg WeissMay 15, 2014
Classic. Great place to meet someone before catching a train.
Nick BurtoFebruary 23, 2012
The Commodore is delicious but not that strong. The amazing interior makes up for it.
Lou GubertiAugust 21, 2013
Decor and atmosphere is impeccable. I'm a fan of the Highlander.
NayDecember 24, 2014
A little pricey but nice ambience. The prohibition punch will knock you out!
Boris PluskowskiOctober 8, 2014
Cool atmosphere and a decent bar staff (albeit with a little attitude)
SimonApril 22, 2011
Absolutely fantastic bar, atmosphere and drinks. Real 1920's feel. Can't wait to go back.
KDaddyAugust 14, 2014
A NYC iconic place. Do not miss it.
Lisa MayerJune 17, 2012
Find the hidden Campbell Apartment through the entrance off Vanderbilt. Try the Prohibition Punch.
Amelie BMarch 29, 2013
Really beautiful setting (and ceiling). The prohibition punch is overrated in terms of taste, underrated in terms of strength.
Trae FOctober 18, 2015
Quintessential New York. I've always loved it in here.
Greg BrunoSeptember 14, 2017
This used to be the spot for the prohibition punch, and now it just feels like a punch in the face.
Lily CutairJuly 5, 2010
Swanky bar with a great 40's era vibe! In the mood for wine... try the Riesling, it's light and refreshing.
Kate SKApril 22, 2013
Been here 5+ times
The Jasmine Flower punch is basically a gimlet. Sorry to have missed the Centennial Punch!
Jesse SyswerdaFebruary 21, 2011
The Kentucky Derby reigns supreme. I had it along with the two tables next to me and we all fell in love. Biejos.
Michael VierraFebruary 2, 2016
Ask for a punch and wear some slacks gentleman.
melissa welirangJune 7, 2010
The scene from Gossip Girl's infamous Shepard wedding where Serena & Nate do their deed in Season 1 was filmed here. Great place and great atmosphere.
Roxanna FloresAugust 20, 2018
Drinks and appetizers are great but it is super loud.
Ricky SherrillJanuary 22, 2015
A nice place to grab a drink before you jump on the train.
Brittany MillsAugust 1, 2011
Amazing! The Campbell Terrace is just as good - love the Watermelon Mojitos.
Ru LuFebruary 22, 2015
Smaller than the pictures show. Has a second floor that fits about 4 small tables. The drinks were not so great.
Ashley ParrishOctober 18, 2010
Wait till after 7 when most of the commuters catch their trains then head here for an after work cocktail. The sidecars are delicious.
Ryan ThomasApril 17, 2014
Amazing! Love it!

Campbell Apartment 2.0... just as expensive ! Kept the ambiance the same though 🙌🏽🍸
Alex CasariegoFebruary 22, 2015
Great spot to grab a cocktail.
Tim ClarkeMarch 14, 2015
Get the truffle oil popcorn!
Jeff MartensJanuary 19, 2023
One of the sexiest bars in NYC.
Shelly PlaceFebruary 26, 2014
All of the hostesses have huge boobs and very low cut shirts
Barry MarshallJuly 2, 2015
Love the pisco sour!

Great drinks and atmosphere, sit out on the terrace in the summer.
CharlottesAugust 24, 2017
Wonderful space for a drink or two
Alfred M.February 16, 2015
you're paying for the ambiance, and it's nice in here
Kimmie OhhAugust 3, 2020
The drinks here are beautiful & come with a vintage twist. This feels like a speakeasy because it isn’t really easy to find. Wish they still had their signature Prohibition Punch on the menu.
Przemek MMay 18, 2015
Great place, I love the mood.
Chris CervantezApril 9, 2013
Best Lemon Drop martini ever! AND this is where I got married last September!
Jacqueline VazquezSeptember 4, 2013
Try the Passion Fruit Mint Sangria!
