http://www.drinkgoodstuff.com Their motto: "Drink good stuff." Thankfully, you have no other option but to do just that at this East Village beer bar. At D.B.A., you'll find an extensive selection of draught beers, Belgian imports, and hand-drawn ales, as well as a formidable stock of tequila (around 50 varieties!). For more perspective, the menu spans over a dozen chalkboards above the bar; the selection is overwhelming, but the room itself is not, featuring worn wooden fixtures, a Ms. Pac-Man arcade table, and a beer garden out back where patrons puff cigars. Here's where you go to maximize your beer-drinking street cred. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.danicoristorante.com In Little Italy, Da Nico is not only a favorite haunt of ex-mayor Rudy G. but a reputed mobster hangout, according to witnesses at Bonanno family boss Joseph Massino's recent trial for racketeering, extortion, and money laundering. A stakeout of the joint reveals lots of tourists sitting outside under huge red umbrellas advertising Campari. Inside, the tightly packed room boasting a bar and exposed brick walls feels more upscale. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
A laid-back bar removed from the hustle of Bedford, Daddyas has a killer jukebox featuring old country, '70s rock, and singles by screaming girl bands. Patrons vie for seats near the Ms. Pac-Man consule, compete at pinball, and know to ask about the stash of board games beneath the bar. Another game, Spot the Future Rock Star, can also be played hereaDaddy's owners play in the Rogers Sisters and attract their own kind. For animal lovers, the bar offers tofu hot dogs (regular are also available), and canines are welcome. Weather permitting, drink one of the intense Bloody Marys on the back patio.

http://www.dakotaroadhouse.com Does the term "Roadhouse" bring back visions of Patrick Swayze kicking ass? Well, Dakota Roadhouse isn't quite that violent, but it's certainly eccentric. Live mouse traps hold the money on the bar so it won't blow away. Even more bizarre, remember those arcade games with a with a mechanical claw to grab and win a crappy stuffed animal ? Well, for $2, you can play the same game here, only the prize is a live lobster. Someone please call PETA. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.dangerfields.com With Rodney gone to the great gig in the sky, we have this, his once-top-notch comedy club, to remember him by. This place has been here since 1969, and you can tell. It's big and old-school, in a Las Vegas sort of way. Mon-Thu & Sun 8:45pm; Fri 8:30 & 10:30pm; Sat 8 & 10:30pm & 12:30am. $13-$20. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.dbpubny.com Delightful staff and summer outdoor seating make Danny Boyas a winner. An extensive menu with large portions, a jukebox, TVs, and very occasionally, live bands liven things up. The saddest thing about his place is the lone speciala$2.75 Miller Lite bottles on Wednesdays. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
This Irish dive (within walking distance of the ferry) appears to be in the final stages of complete decay. The place is dirty, disorganized, and badly in need of a phone line/TV reception. Patrons here are exclusively beer-drinking, working-class men. Be careful when you open the doorait sticks. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.davidcopperfields.com Do frat boys like microbrews? We're going to assume as much, if only to clear up why so many craft-brew pubs are located in the Upper East Side. Short for "David Copperfield's House of Beer," this seven-year-old establishment offers over 30 beers on tap and 100 by the bottle, with a wide range of craft brews offered, from the likes of Dogfish to...Sweaty Betty. Big-screen TVs and a large selection of burgers on the menu make for an ideal evening of football-watching. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.danielnyc.com Daniel Boulud's most populist restaurant yet is dedicated to homemade sausages and beer. And what sausages! There's boudin Basque, crafted from pork blood and pig's head that forms a black, sticky round on the plate and tastes completely wonderful; the Parisienne is composed of pale, plump links of coarsely ground veal and aromatic spices, with brilliant carrots Vichy on the side; and the Tunisienne is a thin coil of lamb merguez sausage served with harissa. And there are many more, all of them globe-trotting and delicious. Although reservations are hard to come by, the front bar section is set aside for walk-ins and is pleasantly casual, if way too loud. The only catch: You'll have to choose from an abridged menu instead of the full one teasingly painted on the bar's walls. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
It's always a good sign when Irish people work or drink at an Irish bar. In other words, Deacon Brodie's serves as a fine place to hang with your mates. So saddle up to the bar, grab a pint of Guinness, and start whittling the night away. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.thedeadpoet.com Those sick of the neighborhood frat bars should visit Dead Poet, where pictures of late, great writers hang from the walls beside their inspiring words. Order up a cheap happy-hour beer, and pretend to leaf through the books in the back room, when really you're trying to check out/impress the Betty nearby. Think about that movie Dead Poets Society, and how you cried when that hot guy killed himself. Had enough poetry? Opt instead for a game of pool to accompany your next pint.

http://www.deathandcompany.com Ravi DeRossi (Bourgeois Pig) probably didn't realize the trends he was about to start when he opened this East Village cocktail den in 2007. The first would be the Prohibition Era bartenders, complete with old timey vests and mustaches. The sophisticated speakeasy atmosphere was another. Bar patrons must give their name to the host, who will seat them when (or if) seats become available, which keeps the bar from becoming an overcrowded mess. The most important trend was the slavish devotion to the cocktails, from the carefully measured, freshly made ingredients to the specially shaped ice cubes. Whatever your poison, the bar probably has a complicated drink for it, like the Queen Palm, which matches Plymouth Gin with fresh-squeezed lime and grapefruit juice, pure sugar cane syrup and fresh coconut water. There is also a small plates menu including bites like pulled pork sliders and crisp pork belly over goat cheese polenta. The windowless bar is often filled with couples, who sit back in the luxe leather banquettes illuminated by candles and chandeliers.—Keith Wagstaff Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.sakebardecibel.com Do not disrespect Decibel with intentions of sake-bombing--this grungy, subterranean speakeasy offers a purist's take on the consumption of Japan's alcohol of choice. The menu contains junmai, honjozo, ginjo, and daiginjo variations on the rice-based beverage, with about 100 choices in total. No wussy English explanations are provided, so just close your eyes and pick: They're all good, or at least authentic. Similarly, the decor refuses to acknowledge that you're in New York City, and so the graffiti of the wrecked, Blade Runner-esque interior is also written in Japanese. Technically, you can't understand anything here, but the message is very clear. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
