    Come Sunday morning, you have a choice: You could go find a delicate brunch, supplemented by bottomless mimosas, or you could knife into a slab of beef and use it to soak up your breakfast Guinness. Read more

    If you like the Holy Smoke and the Hunky Dory, ask for the Wonder Last (most similar) or the Pirate Queen, which aren't on the menu! The cage fighter (with mezcal) is pretty good too! ;-)

    Hands down new favorite place to order cocktails. This has changed everything for me. The sky is a little less blue, the grass a little more pale and a subtle feeling of nothingness now. I am ruined.

    Worth the hike downtown for some of the best cocktails in NYC. Get overwhelmed by a dozen pages of great sounding drinks. Ask for a bartender'a choice instead. Have 3.

    Awesome ambiance and bartenders. Their cocktail menu is a comic book with what seems like over 30 cocktails to choose from! Worth all the hype, drinks were amazing and only $16 each

    The one surefire dish is the shepherd’s pie, a pile of curried lamb that’s been charred into chewy little bits and tucked into a crock pot topped with a hearty schmear of mashed potatoes. Read more

    Head upstairs to The Parlor for the mixology. Bartenders are super attentive. Hot drink? Archbishop. Absinthe? Julep à la Thomas. M-F 5-7pm $1 oysters and absinthe cocktails for L'Heure Verte.

    Be sure to go upstairs. Although there's usually a wait, it's usually not as long as what you're told. You can wait downstairs and bring your drink up when there's space.

    Everything is great. The scotch egg, the Sunday roast, all the cocktails, especially the whiskey based ones. I don't think you can wrong at this place.

    Relaxed pub-like atmosphere, whilst the quality drinks makes for an unforgettable experience. Try Cheshire Cat (tequila, rhum agricole, blanc vermouth and an array of fruits) or the Irish Whiskey menu

    Craft cocktail menu is on point. I have yet to try a dish other than oysters which were grade A++ and I'm super snotty when it comes to my oysters (I admit it). Gets packed so plan to wait on wknds.

    Might be the most pleasant/amazing cocktail bar I've gone to in NYC. So much personality & effort put into the littlest details like menu material, signs, etc. In FiDi=no crowds. Perfect date spot.

    If you want to get in easy, come for lunch. The food is very good pub fare and you can enjoy the signature cocktails. The 3-floor pub setting is charming and you see why this place earns top honors.

    Superbly crafted cocktails, made by masters of their trade. Delicious food, live piano music and a luxurious setting make this a top notch bar. Ooh, and I love the tiles in the bathroom too!

    Lobster deviled eggs and truffle fries were perfect compliments to their unique cocktails. Long waits for the 2nd floor but it's worth it since you can grab a drink downstairs.

    Such a great place. One of the best bars in NYC! If you can make it up to 2nd floor please do. The cocktail menu is a thick book and I recommend trying every single cocktail. IRISH COFFE, FTW.

    The taproom is a hidden gem in this part of town, nice and quiet on a weekend despite the bustle nearby. Spot the old irish photos on the roof, inc. one of the Duke of York (best Guinness in Belfast)! Read more

    This bar definitely one of the best places where you can get brilliant daiquiri. My next visit would be at the Saturday morning. I heard their brunch is excellent.

    Crowned “World’s Best New Cocktail Bar” at a recent major industry event, this joint pours 72 “historically accurate” cocktails (and gallons of communal punch) while the taproom has whiskey and brews.

    Thoughtfully-crafted period cocktails upstairs, and well-poured pints at a belly-up kind of bar on the ground floor.

    Best cocktails in New York City. If you sit downstairs there is a smart menu so try to sit upstairs get some good food and try some cocktails! PLUS it's downtown so it's close to every train!

    Far and away the best spot to meet up for drinks when in the Financial District. If you've ever been curious about pre-Prohibition cocktails, this is the place to try them.

    Tough place to get in. But worth the hassle. The stirred cocktails are based on old fashions and are delicious. I had the chicken pot pie, wonderful and my guest had the shepherds pie also super.

    The Dead Rabbit is not your average sports bar. The atmosphere is lively and energetic, and it's a great place to catch a game with friends while enjoying some delicious food and drinks.

    One of the best bars in the Financial District (which is seriously lacking in them). If you want an expertly-crafted cocktail, head upstairs to the Parlor. For a beer, stay at main level Taproom.

    Fantastic cocktail menu! The taproom on the first floor is a great place to grab an after work drink. Order the Nut Job. The parlor upstairs is a good place to take a date. Order the Precision Pilot.

    Try the second floor bar for a more engaging speakeasy experience or the third for bigger groups. They have a cocktail with whiskey and papaya that'll rock your world.

    Been a regular here since they opened, and this place is absolutely the best. Every cocktail is superb, they change the menu seasonally, and the bar bites are spot on. A must-visit when in FiDi.

    Hangout downstairs until you get one upstairs (Get the house beer) and try anything and everything upstairs. Ask questions and they're nice if you don't like what you order. Cool cups ☺️.

    Great drinks and atmosphere. Mixed drinks will cost about $15 each. Upstairs is a private bar with lots of places to sit. So many drinks to pick from... Waitress was very helpful in ordering...
