Midtown, Manhattan · bar
Dimly-lit rooms with velvet seating and armchairs spread across the lower level of The William Hotel, this the kind of setup where one drink turns into three before the sun has set. If you make it far enough back, there’s a tucked-away patio with hanging vines—quiet, easy to miss, worth asking for. The menu runs deep—around 40 cocktails—split between time-honored classics and seasonal builds on rotation.
