Apothèke

Love this place!! Located so randomly in Chinatown but they have killer cocktails and live jazz sessions on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays(with live burlesque ), and Sundays. Go early or make rsvp-

Loved the underground apothecary vibes centered around a mesmerizing beaker chandelier ✨ If you like tequila get the Paid Vacation w/ habaneros sure to kick start your night ???? Fav place in China Town !

Love coming here on Monday nights for live jazz with Chinatown Allstars. Their cover of "After You've Gone," (song from 1918) is amazing and true to the moment. You are being transported back in time!

Head down a windy, tucked-away Chinatown street to find amazing cocktails and live jazz at this vintage-inspired spot. Call ahead for the secret password to get in. Read more

I've got a new favorite speakeasy and you'll need a password to get in. Some of the best cocktails I've ever had and some amazing performances by the dancers and live band . Gotta do it.

the best bar i have been to in NYC so far! amazing live music Mondays. great cocktails and the vibe is amazing. bartenders may be quite slow though, but ut us worth the wait.

Housed in a former opium den in an unsuspecting corner of Chinatown, finding this place can be a bit intimidating. But trust me, it's totally worth it. The elixirs are spectacularly creative.

This place is incredible. Lucid Dream, Sitting Buddha , Tainted Love, Dr. Ruth ; you'll be hard pressed to find better cocktails within a few miles radius. Highly recommended.

Turn down some seedy Chinatown streets to arrive at this hole in the wall . If there's a band playing consider yourself fortunate to be in a luxurious hidden bar in the greatest city in the world. ????

Coolest bar in NYC. Dim lighting , cool music , hip crowd full of energy and a long list of “prescriptions”, i.e. amazing cocktails to choose from! Try the Bees Knees and the Almond Old Fashioned . Read more

Everything was awsome about this place: funny guy at the entrance, life jazz , burlesque show , delicious cocktails (try "devil may care"???????? ) handsome bartenders and the over all atmosphere. Love it!

Beautiful drinks. Yes. Beautiful. In every way. Space gets kinda club-y at night. Go on the early side to enjoy your cocktails in peace , stay for the party once you're nice and toasty .

For when you just can't have another cranberry vodka . Let the expert mixologists at Apothéke Academy teach you a few of the classics, like the Sazerac , French 75 and old-fashioned. Read more

This place is probably the best all-around 'speakeasy ' style spot I've come across in NYC. Not overly pretentious , drinks are phenomenal & creative, & right around the block from great Chinese food !!

Date Night Is... sinfully delicious cocktails in the midst of a see-and-be-seen crowd. Wander into the heard of Chinatown and seek out this gem by looking for the line outside. (Or just go early.)

I loved the speakeasy atmosphere. It makes you feel like you're doing something illegal! Order off of the menu and tell the bartender what you like and he'll whip something lethal up! I highly rec!

Incredible live jazz Music and vibrant Dance performance . A Must-See in NYC! Expensive but worth it!!!! From now on one of my faves..

Cinammon Girl is a perfect drink, like a whiskey sour with a little bit of spice. Plus, according to the menu it's a stress reliever! Win-win.

Excellent cocktails , cool people and great 20s ambiance. Make sure not to come underdressed. And make sure not to miss the jazz band on Monday evenings and the brassband on Tuesdays.

I love the cocktails here. This place has a unique feel to it. It's set up like an old school pharmacy . Dark ambience, and great old school music playing. Date night as well !

on the corner of two of my most favorite streets in new york city : pell and doyers. they're especially mysterious at night. surprise someone as you're walking through chinatown + grab drinks inside.

Live music is awesome. Not a single drink I do not like on the menu. Can take a while to get your drink as they're very intricate & the place is popular. Note the very strict "no sneakers " policy!

It's not just your cocktail that you are choosing - you are also selecting your mood. The menu is broken up into several categories: Health & Beauty, Aphrodisiacs , and Stimulants to name a few. Read more

Killer cocktail bar . Make a res, get there early, or not get in at all. A bit hidden. $20 per drink not inclusing tax and tip, but worth it for the experience and deliciois drinks.

The vesper spritz ????????very refreshing. I didn't know what I wanted so the waitress surprised me with two to try. Let me keep both and only charged for one- great service!

The first time that I came here I felt that I overpaid for my drink. Then the bartender gave me another for free. Well played, I'd say. Great place to stop by if you're in Chinatown.

You'd be hard pressed to find cocktails this inventive and well executed anywhere else in the city . The crowd is more miss than hit, but the drinks are consistently a home run.

Amazing place, really tasty and original drinks and awesome atmosphere! You need to visit this place when staying in NYC!

Excellent cocktails are served in this Chinatown speakeasy . Try the Dear Prudence for something a little lighter: Aviation Gin and Pimms liqueur , passionfruit juice , lime , and agave nectar .

A hidden gem in Chinatown. Go on a Tuesday to enjoy some live jazz from BK and try the Sitting Buddha at least once.

Hidden gem in a quiet street in Chinatown. Drinks are creatively mixed that surprise you with their deliciousness. Can get quite crowded on weekend nights though.

Delicious cocktails and great live jazz music on Monday nights. Late night it gets a little rowdy, but if you have a fun date and can dance the night away, go for it.

Love the cocktails ! Went around 8 pm and it wasn’t crowded yet. Seems to get more crowded at 8:30 or so. Bartenders wear white lab coats! So cute .

All the alcohol are chemical and all bartenders are in fancy lab coats. However we had a "deal closer " and got a "paid vacation". (Those are our drinks names, they are FANTASTIC)

Do you like cocktails ? You're at the right spot! My favorites are Sparkling Vesper, Chandelle Maneuver and Devil May Care.

Bartenders making cocktails for you wearing a lab coat. The interior is designed to make an impression: a chemist office with a hint of vintage luxe. Drinks are creative, so quirky, and for the brave

Laboratory/chemistry-themed speakeasy . A number of interesting ingredients in the cocktails such as quinoa , asparagus and zucchini . My favorite was the beet cocktail !

Great music , great vibe, talented mixologists , but be prepared for $18 cocktails .

NYC’s first cocktail bar with a strict “Farm-to-Bar” philosophy. All their ingredients are local and organic , and some come from their own rooftop garden . Read more

Opens at 6:30pm and there will be a line . Grab a cozy booth and check your coat. Complimentary of course. Your taste buds are about to go for a tantalizing and pricey ride.

The drinks are amazing. The brass band that plays on Tues is too. The waitress has a hall monitor attitude. We saw her tap a bill reminding a couple to pay. She took a seat from the hands of a patron.

This place has fantastic drinks, music and a killer atmosphere. Sadly if you go in the winter there is a chance it will be freezing. Mandatory coat check means you might want to wear a sweater.

Spot the Chemist sign and duck in here for a "prescription". It's a unique spot with an apothecary feel to it. If vodka soda 's your drink, I recommend the Ivy Fizz.

Really great cocktails . Be sure to check online for the password. Come Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday nights for live jazz .

Hidden gem in the middle of a creepy Chinatown alleyway. I came on a Sunday and they had a jazz band . Large menu of drinks which are very unique and interesting.

Apothéke was voted the Best Hidden Gem Date Spot by OkCupid users in the first-ever Daters' Choice Awards! Tap Read more for additional date spot categories in New York City . #daterschoice Read more

Real catch 22 - The Stunt Double with bourbon and smoked peach might honestly be the best cocktail I've had in New York. It also costs $21.

In honor of the Tribeca Film Festival , try the "Greenwich Mean Thyme ": BOMBAY SAPPHIRE® Gin , mint , thyme , vanilla , lime & agave . It is the perfect balance of herbal, citrus and, sweet.

Cozy cocktail bar with a very interesting and experiential menu, albeit pretty expensive (16-20 for cocktails )
