A great 2-4-1 happy hour bar to meet up with your friends. Contemporary cool and not a dive. The outdoor patio keeps inside from getting too packed. Pop music. Good bartenders.UpvoteDownvote- Joshua SeanMarch 30, 2014Great DJ. I'm presuming there may be a mani pedi spot near by that the employees regular here after work on Sat night? Cute / tiny lil dancers & did u just say ferragomo to me "WTF are those"?UpvoteDownvote
The giant videos are entertaining but a little too mesmerizing. The outdoor area is pleasant and it is fun to look up whole standing out there.UpvoteDownvote
Alexander WinterJuly 3, 2014Dear XES, your AC is way too cold. I'm freezing inside when it's warm and beautiful outside. I do like your two for ones tho. Please just go a little easier on the AC. All I'm asking is 72 or 74.UpvoteDownvote
The Corcoran GroupAugust 17, 2010Enjoy your 2-4-1 happy hour special on their outdoor patio. Fun events every night. Fun vibe and a eclectic mixed crowd.

My favorite bar in the city. Strong pours, no attitude, and the best happy hour ever. No trip to the city is complete without a stop here.Upvote1Downvote
This is one of my favorite cocktail spots in NYC. GREAT happy hour: 2-for-1 until 9 p.m. and they're strong. Also, this is one of the cooler Chelsea crowds you'll find.Upvote2Downvote
A good mix of Midtown business folk and Chelsea homo's, with a little creepy bathroom grabbers thrown in for good mix. What more could you want?UpvoteDownvote
