http://www.redlionnyc.com The Red Lion is a haven for football-hooligan expats. Aside from the constantly airing games, the only things approximating Blighty for limeys on the go are a lone phone booth and bartenders pulling Newcastle. Live country and rock on most nights also sweetens the deal. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.facebook.com/pages/New-York-NY/Red-Velvet-NY/2773 Let them eat cake! Or cupcakes, at least. That's what the huge mural of Marie Antoinette on the ceiling would probably say at this cocktail lounge/sweets shop. While a bar that serves cupcakes along with booze would be interesting enough, the owners (who also run sceney lounge The Eldridge nearby) have raised the stakes by actually infusing their cupcakes with alcohol, including an espresso and chocolate cupcake kicked up a notch with Jameson and a vodka-infused, cinnamon-sprinkled red cupcake. They probably won¹t get you drunk, but just in case you want to guarantee your sobriety you can always order the alcohol-free red velvet cupcake. The narrow, glowing space is bordered by gilded molding, as if you were standing inside of a giant painting. As at the Eldridge, this lounge is big on velvet ropes and bouncers; as one would expect, both the cupcakes and drinks here are not cheap.—Keith Wagstaff Read more about this New York bar or club >>
Though the lacquered sports bar shines, the bartenders and "Sweet Child O' Mine" vibe remind me of my Poison-loving sister. Redd's Tavern would make more sense at the Jersey Shore, yet it sits mere minutes from Bedford Avenue, offering free popcorn, cheap beer, non-ironic "Iron Man" sing-alongs, a dearth of trucker caps, and a Dave Navarro doppelgA$?nger whose band opened for Superdrag back in the day.

Sophisticated and refined middle-aged gay men hold court in this elegant but small piano bar. Leather-backed chairs, paintings, and a grand piano make it seem like you're on the set of an '80s arts documentary program but the photos of the royal family of England seem to give it a slightly more absurd and tongue-in-cheek atmosphere.

http://www.reifstavern.com Reif's Tavern is a quintessential dive that overflows with old-time character. The exposed-brick interior is adorned with quirky paraphernalia (funny masks, a weird picture of the Three Stooges), and darts, pool, and old-school arcade games (Ms. Pac-Man, Galaga) keep the crowd amused while they knock back cheap beer. A testament to the good-natured openness of this bar is that there's a patio out back with grills that anyone can use. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.remedybar.com With a couple abest ofa awards under its belt from generic review companies, now itas time to really judge Remedy. Letas seea|its generic wine list (think Mondavi and Beringer) and typical semi-southwestern light fare isnat really that great a cure for Midtown blasA(c). Local bands provide a bit of relief, but itas hard to get into a place that canat decide if itas a chic-waterfall-wall-decked lounge or a neighborhood corner bar where itas acceptable to wear sweats and drink Bud Light.

http://www.remyloungenyc.com I had a friend who was named Remy by his father, Mr. Martin, a man with a sense of humor and a taste for cognac. Mr. Martin would have gotten on well with the owner of Remy Lounge, who also proclaims a love of that fine, fine drink. There the similarities end. Mr. Martin likes the Who, while patrons at the lounge dance to salsa, r&b, hip-hop, and merengue. Mr. Martin is English, and therefore has little appreciation for good food. Remy Lounge serves Spanish-American entrA(c)es. Neither will let you in if you wear jeans and sneakers. Overall, we like the bar better than the man. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
Diners are great for late-night cheeseburger-cheeseburger Greece-fests, but when's the last time you felt compelled to wash the grub down with anything but Pepsi Pepsi? Enter Rennaisance, a 24/7 "restaurant" with a candlelit back lounge serving $2.95 champagne flutes, $5.95 frozen margaritas, and $6 North Coast wines alongside the usual turkey triple-deckers and chicken souvlaki platters.

Ah, the beauty of the neighborhood sports bar, unadulterated by posh Brooklyn's yuppie leanings. Rhythm & Booze is a prime specimen, catering to an older, local crowd in unpretentious Windsor Terrace. Despite the kitschy name, game-day volume is jacked instead of some trendy music, and the bar always serves cheap drinks and, on Mondays and Wednesdays, 50 cent wings. In fact, Rhythm & Booze serves above average bar fare that's taken over the top with atypical flourishes. Consider the cleverly prepared hamburger: No, it’s no gourmet-gruyere affair, but rather an old-fashioned patty sandwiched into a grease-trap English muffin whose nooks cradle the juice and flavor. The bar, however, is relatively unadorned--brick walls, basic wood tables, a few posters/schedules, and one of those Internet jukeboxes. The people are what give Rhythm & Bar its color, and while vibe is due mostly to the neighborhood patrons, the bartenders are perfectly welcoming and even have a few finer brews on tap to satisfy the Park Slope runoff. Still, they all can pour a solid Guinness. --Alex Spoto Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.ricksnewyork.com Winner of our "Best Post-Macy's Fix" in 2010, Rick's Cabaret is a super-sized strip joint (and steakhouse!) located just around the corner from wholesome Herald Square. Despite what meets the eye, perhaps Rick's and the department store giant share something in common: a high fantasy of red-carpet luxury. At Rick's, all guests are VIPs and are personally escorted into the glitzy, scarlet-tinged main room (unless you're discreetly trying to slip in the side door). This multi-level establishment elevates the archetypal strip club stereotypes into a grandiose theater of quick-draw thong bikinis, billowing, velvety curtains, and frosty, metallic decor. If you want to get serious about that VIP status and drop some real cash, there are plenty of private rooms. Plus, that steakhouse is actually worth talking about. The menu features decadent cuts of red meat and shellfish cocktails that will get the blood rolling. What's more is the three course $10 lunch special, which would be a solid deal anywhere--even if one of the courses didn't involve steak. There's no cover before 7 p.m., and each day, there are plenty of ambitious office workers trying to snag a square meal and take in the scenery before the clock runs out on their lunch break. --Alex Spoto Read more about this New York bar or club >>
This is an actual Masonic temple. Sporadically, its theatre/gymnasium--which looks like a bigger version of the one you had in middle school--is host to a small sect of bands booked by DIY-concert king Todd P. Thus, do not expect to run into any Freemasons or Nicholas Cage on a search for important documents. When a show is being held here, it means the occasion is probably special, the bands are likely loud and messy, and you should definitely go. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
At Rise at the Battery Park Ritz Carlton you can toast Lady Liberty with a martini generous enough for two at the bar, which sits on the 14th floor of the do-tell hotel, overlooking New York Harbor. Ritzy! Yet the decor more closely resembles that of a Motel 6 than a four-star establishment, and the service sucks. Tacky! Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.rivieracafeny.com On an jutting corner of Sheridan Square in the West Village, Riviera Cafe is the self-proclaimed spot for Red Sox and Patriot fans, so beware. The joint regularly airs sports of all kinds--horse races, golf, soccer, and occasionally lacrosse. The interior is much like a classic sports bar: Find a collection of odd tables, a wooden bar, sports memorabilia (in honor of their Boston favoritism). But if you just cant handle the sight of such things, the Cafe has two streetside dining areas in a flower-framed patio. Bar foods are here, along with $4 margaritas and late-night $3 Bud Lights. On the weekend, get your brunch fix with a pre-fixed menu that includes a boozy drink to help you ease into the day. But it's not just a weekend deal. They have daily specials, plus a happy hour that offers all of their beers, including the imports, for $3. Who wants to get sporty? --Lori Trigonis Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.robertemmetts.com Through the large windows, the after-theater crowd (mostly bridge-and-tunnel soccer moms and their overfed husbands) looks out on the bustling, neon street below from a safe distance. It's the kind of place your parents would love: polished, sterile, oversizeaa cheap imitation of luxury. Over a glass of wine (Shiraz, $7), you realize that coming here was a bad ideaait's as dull as your parents' living room. But then again, you might as well get used to it.

http://www.rockysullivans.com Surrounded by scads of EPCOT-Ireland "pubs" populated by suits and mooks with tweed hats and leprechaun tats, Rocky Sullivan's is the real deal. The grubby underground hole has real Irish music on the box and tiny stage, real Irish authors at its superb Wednesday night readings series, and real Irish language classes in the back room. The "Unrepentant Fenian Bastard" T-shirts may be a bit too Irish, but the properly poured Guinness is perfect. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
