people who may be swayed by the prices: you can get a $5 beer that's not bud light . also the ambiance/service is worth it; I had a great time catching up with a friend here + it's totally a date spot .

Sage

Great cocktails , jazz , and friendly staff in a cool atmosphere. Surprisingly not crowded at most times. They also have a nice outdoor space .

Tooker Alley’s Del Pedro has been bartending since the '80s. This bar is a joint to call his own— you’ll often find him behind the bar making Old-Fashioneds and edgy cocktails in vintage glassware . Read more

These guys know how to make a REAL Old Fashioned . No cherry , no orange , just the classic. Real perfection. Bonus deviled eggs are just like my grandmas with a kick.

Nicholas Doyle

House Cocktails are inventive, complex and flavorful. The craft masters behind the counter are incredibly knowledgable , and ordering off menu achieves phenomenal results. Let them take the reins.

Fodor's Travel

Bartenders mix drinks from a Roaring 20s style cocktail menu at this bar that takes pride in reinventing old staples with local themes (there's a page of variations on "The Manhattanite "). Read more

One of my favorite cocktail bars ! Great drinks list, wonderful jazz combos on Mondays, and good—if small—snacks

Paul Leung

I always end my night with a sazerac here. Best sazeracs in all of NYC. Amazing house cocktails and friendly staff . A true gem.

BKbybike NYC

Great atmosphere. Delicious cocktails . Flavorful deviled eggs . Nice stop after Brooklyn Museum

Get the Evening Falls . In fact, get three. You'll thank me in the morning. Lovely, balanced, not too sweet, a real cocktail but gentle enough for amateurs.

Go here on a special night and arrive early. This place is totally worth the wait. Craft cocktails may take a while but the drinks are absolutely divine!
