http://www.heartlandbrewery.com Heartland distinguishes itself with a creative take on bar food, and a hit-and-miss selection of homemade beers (I liked the sprightly Red Rooster Ale). In general, the appetizers are a better value than the entrées, with the pu pu platter-five hefty plates stacked in a wrought-iron skyscraper-the best deal of all.

After-work drinkers and Port Authorityawanderers make up the majority of the crowd at this happy dive bar, perpetually strung in Christmas lights. Not a tremendous singles scene here. Get drunk on $2.50 pints. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.hooters.com Home of the double entendre, the Hooters chain has become an American icon over the course of its short life. Founded in Florida during the glorious 1980s, the company with a hooting owl for a logo boasts its own magazine, a hotel on the Las Vegas Strip, and famous alumni like Hugh Hefner's former girlfriend Holly Madison. The Hooters girls at each of the 450 locations are the heart and soul (or is it the "T and A"?) of the company; from the American Midwest to the Czech Republic to Tokyo, every girl sports the same bright orange short-shorts, flesh-colored pantyhose and white sneakers. Perhaps it could be the food that keeps loyal New York customers coming back. The menu focuses on chicken wings, with sauces ranging from mild to atomic, but there are also seasoned curly fries, shrimp, oysters, crab legs, burgers, and sandwiches, along with plenty of televisions tuned to whatever's going on in the sports world. Check out your local Hooters on Voice Places. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.iguananyc.com With post-work drinking options in Midtown few and far between, many 9-to-5ers line up around the massive wooden bar that twists around the front part of this 10,000-square-foot Mexican restaurant, choosing from a massive list of margarita and cocktail options. Located right around the corner from the Ed Sullivan theater, Iguana is a popular option for tourists and theatergoers as well; it's a little hard to miss, what with that gigantic 30-foot-long iguana sculpture scaling the outside wall.

http://www.industry-bar.com A spacious, modern dance club, Industry is busy every night of the week. This Hell's Kitchen gay bar is known for its diverse crowd, reasonably priced drinks, and unique layout that includes a pool table, soft lighting, and lounge seating in addition to a dancefloor with DJs playing dance music all night. Frequent specials (happy hour is everyday from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m.), a powerful soundsystem, and no cover keep Industry full of smiling, dancing faces. Bartenders are friendly and attentive. Frequent and popular drag queen nights provide an additional dimension of fun. --Gabriel Herrera Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.iridiumjazzclub.com Named after a shiny metal, and hoping to capture the newest sounds in NYC jazz, Iridum has postioned itself to be one of the best jazz clubs ( with food!) in the city. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
The Japas 55 experience follows a set pattern: eat sushi, sip lychee martini, belt Lady Gaga number, repeat. The bare, minimal interior is beside the point: you go here for the 50-percent-off happy hour, the $1.50-per-song karaoke deal, and the motivating 10 p.m. last call for spicy tuna rolls. As is the Midtown way, the crowd runs slightly older and slightly bridge 'n' tunnel, but anybody in this place is capable of busting out a robust rendition of "Born This Way."

http://www.jekyllandhydeclub.com I just donat think itas OK to drink anywhere that advertises by driving a skeleton-bedecked float around midtown. Disneyland is the only place something like that could fly. Oh yeah, another standard: if the doormen whistle and holler at ladies passing by (reeeal professional), I donat want to know what kind of nonsense goes on inside their doors (though I hear it involves a lot of spiderwebs and animatronics).

http://www.hustlerny.com Offering easy access from the West Side Highway, this strip clubas decor meshes the leather-clubhouse look with the neon lights and layout of a movie theater complex. Not that anyone really goes for the decor. The babes are hot, and there are private rooms. Closed Sunday, so go to church. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
Best of 1999: Best Cozy Lounge in a Tourist Trap If you're looking for tourists, a good rule of thumb is to visit any establishment that advertises during the slide show at the movie theater. But the Midtown office workers hanging at Le Bar Bat, the multileveled, self-consciously creepy Disney-gothic (bloodred walls, paintings of bats) mother of late-20th-century theme bars, apparently don't know that - or maybe they are looking for tourists. The $10 admission buys you a viewing of John Waite and Billy Joel record covers and access to two dance floors and a surprisingly cozy lounge. Overheard: "This is awesome." Color of velvet rope: black. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.mars2112.com As the other theme restaurants drop like obsolescent dinosaurs, up springs a new one promising gourmet food and a free carnival ride. Mars 2112 delivers on the ride, at least-a four-and-a-half-minute jouncing in a spacecraft that deposits you on the red planet. Disgorged into cavelike rooms with strolling Martians and flickering video screens, my adolescent crew tasted pizza ruined with honey-mustard chicken, dry chicken fingers, and surprisingly decent (though skimpy) beef satays. My hamburger, ordered medium, was burned to a cinder in the thin atmosphere. Enjoy the ambience, skip the nausea-inducing space trip, and stick with the pastas.

http://www.mccoysnyc.com The grandaddy bar on the block, this Irish pub has been around since the late 1800s and hasn't changed much. Though the exterior is now firehouse red, the inside remains as narrow and hallway-like as ever. While fleets of Hell's Kitchen transients pass up the bar in search of rowdier evenings, locals hail McCoy's as the perfect spot to catch The Big Game on some modestly sized televisions and sip a Guinness among a strong collection of pennants and slogans, including, "Wanted: Good Man. Must be able to dance, socialize soberly, do household chores, and fix everything." Perhaps a bar is the wrong place to search for such a creature, but the folks here certainly seem nice enough.

P&G is a classic watering hole with none of the yuppie trappings of most bars on the Upper West Side. Inside, it's pure Americana, right down to the giant neon sign, dusty wooden booths, and old-timey bartenders. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.peninsula.com/new_york/en/dining/default.aspx Itas an early-to-bed work crowd in crisp suits that munches on the light fare and sips whiskey (aNeat, with twoano, threearocks,a I heard one pin-striped patron say to an unfazed waiter) at this rooftop lounge. Itas a fine and slightly impressive one-drink-date spot, if youare a powerhouse desk-jobber and into that sort of thing. Then again, if I'm going to choose a geographical aesthetic and drink to accompany astroturf (surely a design faux pas), it's going to be a can of beer in Brooklyn, not a martini in midtown.

http://www.pjcarneys.com This loud, unstylized Irish pub serves medium-quality Irish-American bar food until well past 3 a.m. Although the crowd levels can become unwieldy, bartenders are attentive and seem genuinely happy to give a thoughtful opinion on the 8 different beers on draft.

http://www.poshbarnyc.com Despite the incessant playing of eighties hits (piped from a fancy sound system), Posh is relatively relaxed. Exposed brick walls, tin ceilings, and the perfect level of beautifying dimness make this a good place for casual (gay) pick-ups. 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.
