Awesome spot to hang out with friends or take a date. There is enough room at the bar for everyone to find a seat. Get the smokey old fashioned if you’re a whiskey fan. You won’t be disappointed.

Sarah Jane

Absolutely exquisite! When you walk in here you feel like you're walking back in time to a classier era - similar to Gil Pender in the film 'Midnight in Paris.' They've great, creative, cocktails too.

Beautiful interior - great for everything from happy hour to date night to business entertainment. Good for groups . A much needed gem in this area.

Sam Margo

The decor is out of this world cool. The drinks were unique and excellent. The food was good - amazing burger given that this is a British joint. Interested and well-priced apps

Chris Grundemann

They claim it's the longest bar in NYC , I believe it. There's no bad spot to hang out here, every nook is beautiful and interesting. The decor is impecable. Great date spot .

Oscar Wilde is jaw dropping! Beautiful Victorian style all around. It's expensive but for a very good reason, drinks here are strong and amazingly delicious. Some of the best I had around the world!!

John E

Sister to Lillie’s Victorian Establishment. Similarly opulent decor, but grander in scale with one of the longest bars in NYC . Cocktails are excellent (Absinthe fountains 🙌) but HH crowds are not

Cole Kennedy

The serpentine marble bar is incredible. It goes around the entire perimeter of the elegantly decorated space. Really, though, everything is beautiful.

Marie La Rue

A bar for literary enthusiasts. Very spacious space. A lavishly decorated time capsule of the Victorian era. Impressive drink menu.

Polina Weitz

They have insane decor, and delicious cocktails . The brunch menu was solid - loved the pancakes , Burrata and French toast . No alternative milk , so couldn't drink my coffee , which was disappointing.

Connie Chiu

Love the vibe and decor, especially if you are into lit and Oscar Wilde. The Halloween decoration is amazing. Walk around and seek out the quotes.

Marisa Suquet

Really loved this spot, especially as a literary nerd. Great for dates or happy hour , bartenders are fun and knowledgeable . Try the wings !

Dominic Carrozza

Great place! You will be floored by the decor, and the unbelievable drink menu. Scotch and Whiskey lovers, this is your place.

Stefan Glueck

amazing selection of beers on tap . Cocktails and even wines . Limited selection but good food, too

Kevin Stapp

Elaborately decorated Victorian gin house. The Smoked Old Fashioned and Gin & Tonics are great!

Dilek Unar

Interior design is so good and they have a lot of nice cocktails . Try gin-tonic with lime and mint !

Dru Bramlett

Like the man himself, Oscar Wilde keeps a robust cocktail list on hand. Really enjoyed the Writer’s Block and 50 Shades of Dorian Gray. Food selection was decent, but unimpressed.

Siobhán

Came for an office party so don’t know about the prices but my German Pilsner was good and the decor was fantastic.

Amanda Rella

Massive bar with ancient decor and Victorian theme. Drinks are okay but atmosphere is a lot of fun. Always packed!

Consuelo Ruybal

Definitely a tourist spot. Order your cocktails conservatively. I wouldn't order from the cocktail menu -- drinks are not well balanced and lack sophistication. We had appetizers , they weren't bad.

Stefan Glueck

Decor very unique. You keep discovering more and more. Amazing choice of drinks. ANY!!! Did not try food.

Jesse Horsley

Hands down the best old fashioned I have ever had. The cauliflower was an excellent appetizer

Matthew Ferguson

The cold brew negroni is good. Atmosphere is fun too

John Colglazier

Atmosphere kicks ass. Extensive drink menu and NYC’s longest bar at 118 feet!!!

Sam Gil

Nice place for a Friday / Saturday as it’s not overly loud . Still want to get there early for a table.

AmateurConcierge

Awesome interior makes this giant busy bar feel intimate . Dig the old timey vibe

Bennett M

Amazing bartenders and drink menu.

Josh Ferry

Really nice environment, (similar to that of Lillie’s , but larger). Had a fun night!

Call and reserve a table beforehand. Good for groups . Good cocktails , champagne splits
