Midtown, Manhattan · bar
A subterranean Midtown den that feels like stepping into an old‑school cocktail salon with a wink. Plush, dim corners, Victorian quirks, and a menu built around NYC through the ages. The drinks here are playful and crafted (think riffs on classic city flavors), and the vibe gets extra buzz from live music on weekend nights that turns it from elegant hideout to low‑key party. It’s the kind of speakeasy‑adjacent spot perfect for starting the night with a creative cocktail or lingering late over jazz and small plates.
Reposado, jasmine, Italicus, agave, acid-adjusted orange juice, and hopped grapefruit bitters.
Clarified milk punch with Scotch, ginger liqueur, shochu honey
Historic 1860 cocktail by Jerry Thomas with cognac, apple brandy, armagnac and orgeat
