if my hangover is any reference for how excellent the drinks are, the drinks are very, very, very, very excellent. best tunes of any bar in the EV too.

“Fifty years ago, the Holiday opened at 8 A.M., a former bartender recently told a proprietor, so that high-rise window washers could come in 'to get a little courage.'” Read more

Great music . Neighborhood bar , great drinks and scene

The scuffed up chairs have been removed, the scuzzy floor replaced and the menu given the craft cocktail overhaul, including things like egg whites , raw honey syrup , and "cobbled ice." Read more

Red & Brown

Solid cocktails at an East Village institution. No such thing as a bad drink here, and the playlist is always on point.

Anna Santiago

Favorite low key bar . Old school east village , authentic and hidden gem . Good for when you just want to chill .

Time Out New York

Meat-and-potatoes classic rock just sounds better on the jukebox at this inviting East Village mainstay. Settle into one of its comfy leather booths , order a Bud-and-whiskey combo ($7) and nod along. Read more

Warren Bobrow

It used to host luminaries such as William Burroughs and Alan Ginsberg. And punks. And drunks and junkies and college kids and down on their luck drinkers who came for 50 cent beers .

Mervin Hernandez

The staff are very friendly , the cocktails are sighed well , and the vibe is really good, although a little loud .

Kim Pham

The revamped cocktail menu is fun! The Brooklyn Babe is stellar.

Breeze Skrrt

There's a bartender here who makes cocktails While singing harmonies to the amazing playlist. Almost worth going just for that.

Low key cocktail bar with a 70’s vibe and Christmas lights all year

Don't be fooled by all the kids ordering crap drinks. They make a mean cocktail . Try the Lost Hollywood.

The Wry Grin is hard to beat, and they also make a mean Manhattan . ????

Kyle Siskey

This place is great. The bar tenders are quick and friendly . Lewis and the guys get it done. The oatmeal cookie shot is awesome, even if you're a dude. Tell Steph and Meliss- the roomates- I said hi.

Alex Robertson

great old school vibes and lights

Kathryn D

Better in winter than summer but so nice to find a bar that doesn’t rely on its concept to serve food drinks.

Caitlin L

Really great cocktail bar without any of the st. Marks crowd.

Alex Robertson

everything is a little expensive . add CBD oil to your pizza for 10 dollars if you want I guess

Emily Wilson

A cool, old-fashioned spot with decent cocktails . Sadly, it feels a bit outdated.

Amy D

Total dive bar with a Man Cave feel. Great deals with $5 shots and most drinks $5 or less. Read more

DoubleDeuce

It was obnoxiously busy on a Friday night...so standing was the only option. Which was rough. And not so conducive to the drinks. Good spot though.

I got a pineapple daqueri which was ok - nothing special. The food was super mediocre & so was the service. I probably wouldn’t go again.
