- Non-flippant tip: Amazing cocktails. Awesome bartenders and staff. The Holy Mountain from the winter menu is inspired. Ask for something off-menu for fun and let the bartender surprise you.
- Sarah BrinkJuly 2, 2019A gin distillery with a small bar attached. The bar isn’t where I want to necessarily go on a night out, but a great place to try a local gin. The staff is friendly & will help you choose a gin.
- Date Night Is...April 29, 2013Fantastic Date Night spot with some of the best cocktails you'll find in the area. They may take a little while, but you can enjoy the view of their distilling operation while you wait.
- Marwan QJune 30, 2014Have shot a short film in this amazing bar and distillery, a memory that will forever be with me as they do have some of the best cocktails available and the surrounding as just as good,
- Love The Shanty on a weekend afternoon. Live music, happy hour specials, laid back atmosphere, and Jen is wonderful behind the bar. Best unexpected discovery in a long while!!
- Harry RaymondApril 15, 2015Romantic cocktail bar attached to the New York Distilling Company. Often has live music. Worth exploring.
- Sa BinaAugust 26, 2016Max is awesome! Go with his recommendation! You can't go wrong! Martinez was good. Little on the bitter side (I like sweet cocktails) but still awesome!
- Tim BallMay 12, 2013Great selection of often hard-to-find booze. Also, great bartenders work here. We did not get one. Avoid the Christian Soriano lookalike and go, instead, for his bro-y coworker. Odd, yes, but right.
- Cassandra Holdridge-LewJanuary 7, 2013Versha S. is completely wrong!! Place is wonderful & bartender is amazing! Ajay is very knowledgeable & a great bartender-extremely polite, friendly & a hot nerd-definitely cute :) LOVE The Shanty!!!
- Emily KaneMarch 9, 2015Happy hour is ALL DAY on Mondays. 6-8pm during the rest of the week, and 3-5pm weekends. Cheers.
- Erik SchomburgOctober 19, 2018The rye is great, and the applejack-finished rye even better. The gin also quite tasty, and the bartenders are skilled with their cocktails.
- Kayleigh HarringtonFebruary 20, 2017Try one of the gins they distill here in a cocktail or simply with tonic.
- Bring a Ziploc to take the jerky back home with you. No seriously. I do it all the time.
- Dwayne D.February 17, 2013Very interesting, come on Sundays for the live band. And there's a happy hour. Didn't do the tour, but it looked like everyone who did was happy.
- Try every single cocktail on the menu. (All amazing) Blackout. Forget you even came here and do the same thing two weeks later.
- Alex FishDecember 22, 2015All of the cocktails feature a drink from New York Distilling Company. The G&T with Perry's Tot is a must
- Alyxa LeaseJune 13, 2014All drinks are delicious but if you're nice the bar tenders will whip you up your own mixology drink. Be careful, they're strong!
- Amanda JabesMarch 11, 2013Not the easiest place to spot, keep your eyes peeled. Get the goat cheese with golden raisins crostini and a fancy gin cocktail.
- AhuvaAugust 24, 2017Great cocktails for great prices and beers on tap, check out their for-2 specials

- Meg VelinJune 9, 2013AJ is an amazing bartender - he makes a great cocktail & is very knowledgable ...treat him nice & tip him well :)
- Dan MillerNovember 17, 2013The gimlet is phenomenal. It's probably the best cocktail I've ever had. Try it.
- Jorge H.June 10, 2016Fantastic bar program made with house gin/whisky or other commercial high-end brands.
- Elevine BergeAugust 30, 2014Best cocktails in the area? The gin distillery right next door is fascinating!
- Campbell BirdOctober 13, 2015This place is good, but extremely hipster. Expect beards and live bluegrass, but also good cocktails.
- Zack SheppardJanuary 3, 2015It's the bar attached to the New York Distilling Co., if you're wondering.
- Danny NathanMay 17, 2013They're aging Rye and are talking about making a "Rockin' Rye" as well. Sounds dee-lish!
- Doniree WalkerJune 15, 2014Red Baron: applejack, carpano, curaçao, all-spice dram. (Recommended from summer 2014 Whisky Advocate)
- Sebastián RojasJune 14, 2015The house made gin is great, the setting is beautiful, but bartenders are a bunch unpleasant and rude assholes. Such a waste.
