    Very nice chill atmosphere, seemed to be a diverse crowd with age range and ethnicity. I liked the mature music in the background and I liked that it was not too loud so conversations could still be held. I was greeted by the male bartender when I arrived. But overall I feel the service could've been better me and my person were left unattended to for a while before are came to ask us if we were okay, needed anything etc. I enjoyed my food, which was the French toast. It was REALLY GOOD! my person has the eggs Benedict which I did sample and found it to be flavorful. Although there could've been more Hollandaise sauce. I especially enjoyed the Hot Toddy. It was made to perfection! The bill was more than expected... $96. I honestly think that's a bit pricey. I might be back another time

    I came here for brunch after a race and it was not good. I have come many times before and it is always delicious but this one time it was disappointing. The service was not good; we were a large table and the staff member looked overwhelmed and frustrated. We had to constantly flag them down to give them our order. Then the food which i ordered was not good and the portion was a lot smaller than the last time we came. I ordered the Benedict and it was not good; the sauce didn't taste like anything and it was room temperature. I like my food to be hot and this was not. The place is quite nice and usually it is my go to in the area. I am not sure if I would go back. The sangria was good but it had a lot of ice. It is possible they had an off day but both the service and food were disappointing so...

    I think I found my new favorite brunch spot in Harlem. I recommend making reservations as the place tends to fill up pretty quickly. The reservations are made by filling out a form on their website. I made brunch reservations late the night before & we were still able to get accommodations. However, without the reservations we wouldn't have been able to get a table because the place was completely booked. I had the BIH biscuit and enjoyed every bite of it! I'll definitely come back soon.

    Went with the girls for brunch. Love this place its so relaxed. We had the chicken and waffles which look yummy and they said was so good. I had the salmon Benedict and wasn't happy. I didn't like the slimy salmon or lox that they use. I rather salmon not lox. The drinks and dessert were delicious. They have a great selection of drinks. I will definitely go back and order something else. They are definitely a place to stop by.

    My husband wanted a snack before our movie, so we stopped by this bar to pregame. Food: 4/5 We ordered oysters and the vegan grilled Caesar salad. The oysters were fresh and clean, though not my favorite type. The vegan Caesar was beautifully presented and enjoyable--not quite the same as a classic Caesar, but still a nice dish to try. Drinks: 5/5 I loved the "Bird in Hand"--not only was the glass gorgeous, but the drink itself was delicious. I also got a smoked cocktail, and as soon as it arrived, I could smell the amazing wood they used. They definitely don't skimp on the pours here--I was feeling it after two! My husband enjoyed his gin-forward drink as well. Overall: I'd definitely come back. The interior is stunning, with old-school tiling and tall ceilings--perfect for date night vibes. Can't wait to return!

    Stopped by for Saturday brunch. We sat at a high top table. It wasn't too comfortable so I would sit at a regular table next time. They have an interesting cocktail and food menu. I wanted the plant based chicken and waffles but they were sold out of the plant based chicken. Instead I got a vegan burger with fries which was pretty good. The noise level in the restaurant was moderate. They have two bathrooms with Broadway posters inside which was cool. I like the artwork they have displayed throughout the restaurant and most of it is for sale. Service was ok, though I do think they could be more attentive. We had to flag someone down for more water and the check because they did not frequently come back to check on us. Overall, a solid brunch spot in the neighborhood.

    The fruity pebbles cocktail

    Great food and great artisanal cocktails plus the bartender was very nice, charming, and thorough. The fruity pebbles was a very good drink

    Oysters

    The oysters weren't fresh, but the eggs Benedict was pretty decent. The cocktail was probably my favorite part of this dining experience! I ordered the songbird won cocktail, and it was very delicious. You could taste the fruity mix with elderberry. Definitely worth the try.

    We visited Bird in hand to celebrate my birthday last month on a Saturday during brunch. It was a group of 7 girls and it was all our first time dining at the restaurant. We absolutely loved the service, the food and the cocktails. The ambiance of the restaurant is also so welcoming and bright- with greenery all over the restaurant. We can't wait to go back!

    Pork on, in, on top, on bottom, of nearly every dish. Many New Yorkers do not want it near their mouth. Couldnt eat there.

The vibe was cool, the service was excellent, and the $$$ food and drinks were delicious. This clean, modern, and cozy establishment provided not only an excellent dining experience but unbelievable entertainment, too. We inital went for dinner and drinks, but stayed when this wonderful artist and guitar player started to do their thing. Johnny Bliss sang & transported patrons to another place along with his talented string partner, Fabio. The singers voice is unbelievably beautiful. A true gift to the ears. He arrived around 8PM, and did a few sets until approx. 11pm. Apparently, these two artists are playing at NAPA on Fridays nights (not sure for how long). We had the meatballs, crabcake, and pork chop dinner (all yum). We had a few custom and signature drinks. Happy hour available until 7pm. Street parking out side. Conveniently located by MTA bus/trains. Totally recommend, will go again .

I had already paid $40 just to enter the lounge, and yet the security guard at coat check aggressively insisted I take off my "coat" and pay another $20 just to wear it--or $10 to check it. The problem? It wasn't even a coat. It was a dress, and I told him that. I even explained that I could technically wear it as a dress and that I only had something skimpy underneath, but he still kept arguing. He kept pushing me to take it off and said, "There are plenty of other people dressed like that," completely ignoring the fact that I was uncomfortable. Being told to basically strip down or pay more money after already paying $40 to get in felt harassing, humiliating, and absolutely unacceptable. The whole situation felt like a scam and a blatant cash grab. If management allows staff to treat guests this way, it says everything about how poorly this place is run. I won't be coming back.
