Ordered drinks and…read moreit was served right away, they were tasty and strong (on the average price range for drinks ~$15-$16 each). They do have events here so i was just here during a slow day I guess. It's a downstairs bar but they have plenty of seating. The vibes are what you would expect at a normal pub/bar.

This was a place that my friend and I happened to randomly stumble upon and we're glad we did. The…read morebar itself is MASSIVE. Lots of standing room with some seating. There is a decent selection of cocktails (I recommend the Take it Ease) and a lot of other beers and non alcoholic options. The music they play is so fun and the vibe itself is great. It was giving industrial x indie if that's even a thing? Anyways, our server was super friendly and even gave us a free pretzel since the kitchen made too many. Would absolutely come back.

During our adventures in the Meatpacking district my friend insisted we pay a visit to The Top of…read moreThe Standard for the amazing view. We got there shortly after they opened (4 pm), so it wasn't busy. On your way to the rooftop you'll pass through a nightclub, which reminded me of a discotheque reminiscent of Studio 54. According to my friend, it doesn't get hopping until later and good times are had. There is a jacuzzi inside, so I can only imagine the wild antics that occur. I would have absolutely been a regular here back in the day. The Rooftop is spacious with plenty of places to chill & relax. I ordered a Cucumber Limonade $16 (Vodka, Cucumber, Lime, & Elderflower). It was crisp & refreshing. Perfect for this beautiful sunny day. My friend was right. The view was stunning - with sweeping views of the city and the harbor. It was so nice to be so high up above the bustling city without a care in the world.

Stopped by with some friends and unfortunately didn't get to eat or drink there because of an issue…read morewith alcohol service. One person in our group may have seemed a little off, and because of that, the staff refused to serve any of us alcohol. We get that they have policies to follow, but it felt a bit unfair to penalize the entire group--especially since the rest of us weren't drinking or acting out of line. To make things more confusing, they came back later and said we could order alcohol after all, but by that point, the mood was already off and we decided to leave. The place didn't seem bad overall, but that experience definitely left a sour taste. Maybe we just caught them on a weird night. Wouldn't recommend especially being in the wine country.

How happy hour ought to be... mini tinis and oysters to pair!…read more Bar tenders having fun, folks from all walks of life celebrating, smiling, sharing. A diverse space that is as much a spot for business as it is for the Party as the DJ stand indicates. Oh, and gold. Gold everywhere. Super fun spot that still maintains super crisp, clean program. Clean, rooted and martini driven. No bonobos here, just well manicured martinis that are built for the pallet, not the instagram grid(but, hey, they're pretty damn photogenic, too)

I went to Bar Bonobo to celebrate my birthday. The ambiance is undoubtedly gorgeous, swanky, and…read morehip. Very vibey for a GNO or date night. My only two gripes with the spot were - they didn't acknowledge my birthday, even with a happy birthday from my server or the hostess. I am not sure why Resy prompted me to indicate the occasion if it wouldn't even be acknowledged or looked at. It obviously feels good to feel celebrated, so they dropped the ball in this regard. The second issue is it got sickeningly loud inside. This was a sunday night, and I ended up having to shout just to be heard by the girl right next to me. Everything else was good! Though there wasn't a dish that just blew my mind, everything was consistently really good and enjoyable. I recommended ordering a handful of dishes and sharing with a group. The cornstar martini was fun (and the popcorn was great!), the vodka pasta, caesar salad, and truff fries were enjoyable as well. The cute matchboxes were a cherry on top as we were leaving! I would come back for more of a going out event instead of a sit down dinner, but it's a cool spot!

They have daily happy hour and a nicely curated cocktail menu, making this place a great choice to grab a drink. The food doesn't disappoint either. The chicken wings in buffalo sauce were delicious, but the tater tots were my favorite. They were served as a mini casserole with jalapeno, cheese, sour cream, enchilada sauce. Really tasty and interesting. The service was great and friendly. Overall, the whole vibe is quietly charming. A real neighborhood gem.

A total of 4 of us came here on one of the most bitter winter days this year as we needed an indoor…read moreinteractive activity. We thought mini golf was interactive, everyone had the same chance to play and it's simple enough without exerting too much energy (unlike an escape room or the dancing tiles which I also came across in my research). Great place for friends, families, dates of all ages. We checked in on the ground floor (also have a coat check here) and were told they have a cabin themed course on the 2nd floor and a museum themed course on the 3rd floor, but there was a party going on. They also told us about the rooftop lounge, which is covered with plastic and they have heaters blasting the space. We went with the cabin themed. Although I don't think they completely blocked the 3rd floor with the party, we just didn't want to have to compete with others and wanted a quiet experience. They have stairs or an elevator. Once we got to the 2nd floor, we were the only ones there and were explained how the digital scoring works. We inputted our names, and our scoreboard would follow us from board to board in sequence after we all punched in our scores. The max was 6 putts per course to help keep things moving (we definitely played more than 6 on some courses lol). The courses did progressively get more challenging as you moved on. The decor was beautiful. Fairy lights lined the space with murals or a ski lodge/mountains around with a polar bear and a ski mobile. Many cute photo ops. On the last course, once you made it, the game swallowed your ball, I guess to help prevent you from trying to play the course again. I wish there was more than 9 courses though. It was fun enough but maybe having a few more would have helped fill the time more. Time flew by and we had lots of laughs. Would be excited to come back to try the museum course next time.

Equally bomb! Perfect combo if you're drinking. You just HAVE to get a Sapporo when you're at a Japanese spot. I ended the meal with the café cocktail which I normally wouldn't order without milk... but this one? Sweet, delicious, and totally didn't need it. It was so good! Now the DJ... not jazz, not chill vibes, not whatever TikTok led me to expect. Nope. Full-on techno/trip hop/drum & bass mashup that was so loud I had to yell at my husband across the table, "HOW'S YOUR BURGER?!" And the bouncer out front - bless him, but communication skills = 0. He asked if we had a reservation, then gestured for IDs with his hands which my husband understood as whip out your reservation... after my husband is fumbling with his phone and showing the bouncer our reservation, the bouncer THEN clarified, and I felt like I was in some annoying game of charades. As an older born and raised New Yorker, the tough guy bouncer act is TIRED! We've seen it. Move on. Other than that? Food amazing. Service with our waitresses was amazing. And the decor was fire with the vinyls on the wall. Would I go back? Maybe. Especially if next time they swap the techno for some Japanese jazz so I can actually hear my husband without yelling.

There is no filming during the show so you will have to go see it for yourself. I love the fact that they have an actual tub on the bar and that one of the burlesque dancers actually used it for their performance. There is a splash zone and we were in it lol but we didn't get too wet. I don't remember there being a cover but their was a burlesque fee added to our bill. I don't remember how much it was but I didn't mind it because it was worth it. I love that their menu was an actual newspaper. The service and drinks were good.

The place slews dimly lit and we found a table pretty quickly which was a score. The drinks menus featured all sorts of concoctions of the gin variety and fairly priced for NYC. Overall it's the kind of place you need to have a cool crew with you because there isn't much interaction with any of the others in the place. But the vibe is cool and worth checking out. Bonus points to the staff that let us take pictures inside the bathtub!
