Featured Bars/Clubs


http://www.belmontloungenyc.com A downstairs spot gives Belmont Lounge a slightly exclusive vibe. The back game room draws a group looking for a friendly wager, friendly competition, or just a friend for the night. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.bembe.us A refreshing break from the trendy Williamsburg hipster scene, this cozy brick-walled lounge is a relaxing place to enjoy sweet island-flavored drinks early in the evening. As the night goes on, Bembe heats up with DJs spinning multicultural beats, often accompanied by hand percussionists, while a diverse and chic crowd dances with abandon.

http://www.thecarlyle.com Creator of those Madeline books for children, Ludwig Bemelmans painted his only surviving public commission on the walls of this famous Art Deco lounge, a staple of the let-them-eat-cake set for more than fifty years. The beloved Audrey Saunders is the mixologist in residence here, concocting everything from a Gin-Gin Mule (gin, homemade ginger beer, fresh mint and lime juice) to the Valencia (Fino sherry, orange oil and gin garnished with a flaming orange peel).

http://www.harrysburritos.com Benny's was one of the first California-style burrito joints to open in New York, opening way back in 1988. They specialize in the giant, gut-busting burritos popular in San Francisco as opposed to the smaller, more portable burritos of Southern California. Most of them come stuffed with black beans, Spanish rice, Monterrey Jack cheese and your choice of filling. Chicken and vegetarian options are plentiful: shredded barbecue chicken, grilled chicken with mango salsa, sautéed spinach and vegetarian chili are just a few of the 19 different options. Beef and fish burritos, tacos, nachos, quesadillas and more are also on the menu. It's not a huge restaurant, which would explain its brisk business in take-out, but it's certainly a fun one. Bright colors, funky lamps and booming music keep things constantly upbeat. It really gets jumping during happy hour, when beers are $1 off and margaritas are half-price.

At times, the need for a hidey-hole arisesawhen meeting a friend's ex for a not-so-innocent drink, or dating an uncouth geek with whom you'd rather not be seen. Avoiding the crowd is easy at Big Bar, a rare underpopulated East Village den. Four-dollar shots of JA$?germeister help to lubricate an evening in its suggestively black-PVC-clad booths, dim red lights cast a seductive glow, and the discreet bartender won't tell tales out of school (though she drew the line at a frisky couple's recent attempt to snog in the bathroom).

http://www.bigcitybarandgrill.com Expect all sports all the time at this UES beer and sports pub. What was formerly the Carnegie Hall Brewing Co. is now Big City Bar & Grill, where football reigns on NFL Sundays and Wednesdays is "College Night"aall bartenders from local schools.

http://www.bnksi.com For a taste of the wild, wild (but not too wild) west, head to this family-friendly saloon and eatery. Munch on Tex-Mex goodies while enjoying different entertainment every day of the week, from Monday Night Football to karaoke to live blues and jazz bands. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
A large statue of Buddha sits behind the DJ booth. Is this elevating the DJ to the status of spiritual leader? Make your own mind up while you sit in the red-lit, Chinese-inspired lounges beneath the dragon paintings and Chinese lanterns. The extensive drinks menu includes eight different martinis and the ornate Asian interiors are made chic by hip-hop that plays on weekends. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.billymarkswest.com Genuinely divey, Billymarkas has dinky linoleum floors, abrasive lighting, and amazingly cheap drinks. Pool and darts are mostly reserved for regulars (of the potbellied, tattooed, bulging arm-muscle type). You must buzz to get into the restroom. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.birdlandjazz.com The place jazz lovers love to talk about, perhaps because the very name takes them back to a time they loved or a time imagined as the most exciting NYC has ever seen. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.eatalyny.com/eat/birreria Despite difficulty in getting to this faux beer garden on the roof of Eataly, the food can be astonishingly good, via Mario Batali and his executive chef Alex Pilas, though the menu is fearfully low on the carbs you need to pursue an evening of drinking. The homemade sausages are gigantic Teutonic-Northern Italian mash-ups of subtle flavor, and the shredded kale with grapefruit in an anchovy vinaigrette may make you remark, “Why didn’t anyone think of that perfect texture and flavor combination before?” But special accolades belong to the oddball mushroom section of the menu, where oyster, ‘shrooms cavort as carpaccio, and maitakes come kissed with pecorino cream. The beer list? Strange but interesting. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.bitterend.com The painted, floating heads of Bob Dylan, Woody Allen, Bill Cosby, and Stevie Wonder stare at you from the wall behind the bar at the Bitter End. They are the ghosts and previous performers of this famous, half-century-old live music/comedy venue. The Bitter End books a collective of alternative rockers, some more rockin' than others. Regardless, there is a YouTube video of Lady Gaga--before she was gaga--howling in front of the brick-wall-backed stage. Perhaps there are more legends to come.

http://www.bblnyc.com The Black Bear Lodge is fairly self-explanatory. It has all the lodge-y goodies one can imagine: lamps with deer antlers, antique sleds, snowshoes and skis on the wall, deer head in the back. With a pint of Sierra Nevada or Yuengling in one hand, use the other to take down woodland creatures by playing the lodge's Big Buck Hunters arcade game. Or heat up with its bar specialty: "Pepper Fucker," a mix of six peppers and Jose Cuervo Gold Tequila. Or try the "Ski Shot," but Google what it is beforehand. Trust us.

A nice Irish bar in Queens, without a lot of the creepiness. Nice pints, neighborhoods crowd, etc. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
Somehow, I expected a Chelsea bar to be named Back Door rather than Black Door, but I digress. But instead of a swinging gay club, this joint is a relaxed lounge with dim lights and an adult-only atmosphere. Go early to snag a booth. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.blacksheepnyc.com The bar at this new Murray Hill Irish pub is decorated with 25,000 penniesathink of all the good luck theyave got! Youare going to need it when contemplating the Black Sheepas selection of thirty-five beers and a hundred frozen drinks, or when your rugby team (which you can watch on one of their four TVs) is losing.

The Blarney Rock gushes quintessential Irish dive-bar gruff, even in an area dedicated to tourists. Located within a block of Madison Square Garden, Penn Station, the Manhattan Mall, and a slew of mainstream beer bars, it sticks out as the only place to throw back a cheap pint of Bud or Guinness. Decoration-wise, the bar is composed of '70s wood-panel walls filled with shamrocks and every sports pennant imaginable, including the University of Hawaii's. The day crowd is a mix of out-of-towners and blue-collar New Yorkers; the night crowd is dictated by Madison Square Garden's calendar, so expect like-minded patrons during Knicks games or Iron Maiden concerts.
