Cocktail Bar · Union Square · 245 tips and reviews
The_Pro: Whiskey Business is excellent. Perfectly balanced drink.
Noah Weiss: The owners of Raines Law Room created a new speakeasy twice the size, with reservations, with many French themed rooms. It's still the perfect date spot, but just bright enough to go with friends.
Elyse Estrada: If you like Raines Law Room you'll love this place. Super cute with themed rooms and romantic nooks to steal away and sip fancy cocktails. Reservations will be needed as more people find out about it.
Jimmy!: Great beers (with adjacent tasting room and patio for warmer months) and food. Really recommend the Jeffrey burger and Sriracha peas.
The Wall Street Journal: The Jeffrey Craft Beer & Bites is one of those places where even hard-core beer geeks may not know every offering on the draft list. Read more.
Brew York: Patrick Donagher has done it again. 30 rotating tap lines at two bars, growler fills, well-executed food, and a big backyard. Grab an NY brew ($5 from 11-7) and marvel at the bad-ass draft system.

Lisette: Laid back place with spectacular wine list, inventive food menu, great jukebox, and friendly staff.
Halstead Property: Infamous for their assortment of gourmet meatballs, the beet and gorgonzola rendition of a classic meatball is a delicious second favorite after the veal-ricotta balls
Serious Eats: One of our favorite wine bars in the city, where novice wine drinkers and oenophiles alike can taste something new and exciting.

Anissa: $15 lobster deal Mon - Wed! The bartenders are great and also there's a digital jukebox!
Christian Lopez: Find me a joint where you can enjoy authentic Malay cuisine, jukebox 90's classics, while an amazing staff continually pours Jameson shots on the house... and I'll let you name my firstborn. Stunning.
Julia Wu: Fresh seafood. It's a cosy small restaurant and bar. The owner has a very cute Husky, very friendly and cute. Recommend oyster for sure. I had lobster roll, very nice.

Gay Bar · West Village · 55 tips and reviews
Franklin Bonafe: Not only do they have the best burgers, they have sports in tv, great jukebox, and you can actually have a decent conversation with some interesting people:)
Brian Masefield: For the older crowd (average age last night was around 55), but fun, casual, non-cruisy, with seating and a 80's jukebox.
Esquire: Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. Sure, it's a gay bar, but this dingy old survivor is more masculine than 90 percent of the straight bars in America.

frank gasca: Grill...free hot dogs! Cheap beer and a juke box...what more could you ask for?

Udi Rubin: No doubt, this place serves one of the best burgers in the city. Together with good music (From a jukebox) and good beer, this is a winner.
angelo w: This is probably one of my favorite burger spots in the city. I recomend the bistro burger w/ side of fries and McSorleys beer. Cheap burgers and beers, you cant beat it.
Brian Morrissey: watch out for the frat boys. in the old days you could bribe big george $20 to seat you immediately. then he hit a guy and he had to leave.
