    Mr Pink drink and watermelon/mint mocktail
    Bri K.

    Amazing service and lovely drinks. It is a small, quaint yet intimate speakeasy, nestled in the back. The decor gives a little man-cave but in a very elevated elegant way. With a classy vibe this is the perfect first date spot. I got the Mr pink drink (I think thats the name) and my date got a watermelon/mint mock tail made by the bartender. Both drinks were great. My drink was heavily minted, so be aware of that. Definitely make a reservation since its a small space. I loved how they constantly checked in on us and the music choice gave 2000s but was not overwhelmingly loud. 10/10

    From the exterior, it looks like and is a clothing store and it's easy to miss the fact that there's a bar hidden behind there because the J Bespoke sign is above the door and the sign on the door says something else. There's a host at the front entrance who directs you to a secret door in the back behind which are the bar and lounge seats. The interior is narrow but cozy, with dim lighting, art on the wall, and plush seats. The temperature was comfortable. The server came by pretty quickly after we sat down and took our order. This bar is on the InKind restaurant network, so I wanted to give it a shot because it is a speakeasy. I've been encouraging all my friends about and referring to them to the InKind app, which makes the quite pricey NYC drinks a little cheaper. The drinks were around $18 each. The service was attentive and consistent. Drinks were moderately strong and flavorful. They charge a fee for drinks that are not on their menu (not an upgraded liquor, but my margarita was $2 more) plus a service fee for credit cards. Businesses will do anything to sneak in extra charges when most people look st their itemized receipt. Similar establishments in NYC don't do that. I paid with the InKind app, not a credit card, and there was still a charge. I would recommend for the vibe and well-made drinks but pay cash if you want to avoid additional fees!

    We were in the area looking for a bar when we found this place on google maps. Had no idea it was a speakeasy so we kept walking back and forth until we realized that this speakeasy is tucked away behind a suit store - so brilliant and cute! It was fairly packed on a Friday night around midnight but died down afterwards. A nice lowkey atmosphere to go with a group of friends, can be an intimate date spot too. Drinks were on the sweeter side but there's a good variety. I got Mr. Pink and it was so delicious! Didn't get to try the food. Lovely place, will definitely come back!

    10/27/23: Second time and this time I brought two friends along. Although I've been here prior still manage to have issues locating it, but we did. Didn't have reservations but just was accommodating. Although we kind of given a time limit due to reservations we totally stayed over the time limit and ummm it was a little empty when we left. Decor sleek dimly lit and has a little seat vibe. Upscale chic .Small interior but it does it job. Ingenious inspired cocktails. It may resemble water but my drink was Gin based! As always had to order those wings. That Parmesan flavored coating is the best. All in all good time had by all will continue to return and try other drinks.. especially as they are on the Seated reservation app and we received seated dollars from our bill. Download Seated use code Michelle1454. You're welcome .

    We found this speakeasy by chance on our way to dinner, which reminded me of a similar concept in Montreal. Once past the secret door, you will see a cozy "living room" with a few TV screens and a big screen behind the bar. I had the peat & tiki, and my partner got the mcAvoy as recommended by the waitress. I was surprised by how complex peat & tiki was - I tasted so many different flavors within one drink. The service was prompt and friendly. The decors were posh and sleek. It is hard to imagine how rowdy it could get during a major sport's event.

    We stopped in here on a Friday. They were kind enough to seat us without a reservation. The drinks were decent and service was good. The thing that threw us off was the confusing atmosphere. We enjoyed the art, music, and moody lighting when we walked in. 30 minutes after we arrived, they turned on a huge screen with a college football game. It seemed so out of place for the vibe.

    Sandeep C.

    Where else can you be watching the game and sip on craft cocktails?! Such a cool concept and perfect for me. We got to see some college bowl games while trying out some cocktails. They have plenty of coffee infused ones that I love. I could definitely put down several of the nitro cold brew martinis.

    What a great speakeasy! Cool hidden entrance behind a tailoring shop. They were having a private party in front but the back was still open. We got seats at the bar without a reservation around 6pm on a Thursday around the holidays - then it got fully crowded. I got the martini with the truffle blue cheese olive and it was INCREDIBLE. Wow, very impressed, also not crazy price for truffle drink. Would come back just for that martini again.

    Great, lowkey speakeasy spot in Flatiron. I don't think it's super well known, my friend and I were just able to walk in on a Friday evening which we loved not having to wait. Drinks tasted super fresh and fruity and service was great. The ambience was interesting, the speakeasy is half glass artwork and half sports bar. No one was watching the sports games as far as I could see so it seemed a bit random to have a huge screen take up half the space for sports games in what is otherwise a classy, elevated space, but I suppose that's what makes this place different and unique. I'd come back here if I'm in the area and don't want to wait a line elsewhere, but not the most impressive speakeasy in the city. Definitely worth a visit though and I had a fun time!

I liked how they organized the menu by country/geography to facilitate an understanding of the flavor profiles. I got two of the date & fig-flavored smoked whisky drinks and it was a well made, balanced, and very good. Not cheap at some $25 or something, but middle of Manhattan with some creative ingredients means I guess it is what it is. Servers seemed a bit annoyed to have to deal with us shortly before close as I think they were hoping to usher people out and close down maybe a little early. One the one hand I get it, on the other hand you've got two paying customers on a slow night.

    I'd give this place 6 stars if I could. It's my favorite speakeasy in the city by far…read more The drinks are absolutely phenomenal. They're experimental, whimsical, delicious, and worth every penny. My absolute favorite is Child of Light, and my BF's was High Frequency Device. The interior was dimly lit, with a couple of candles per table or counter. It's a perfect place for a date night. And while there may be a wait on busier nights, it's always worth the wait. We were sat at the bar once and were very well taken care of by our bartender, Nikola. It was a Sunday night, so it wasn't terribly busy. We chatted up a storm and he was able to create some drinks off the menu just for fun (on request). He also made my BF and me a couple of drinks to celebrate our anniversary too. Wonderful people and wonderful service. Needless to say, we will be back as frequently as we can!

She had been to…read morePatent Pending before and had good things to say, and since it wasn't too far from us we decided to head over. Patent Pending is a speakeasy, located behind Patent Coffee. It was dark when we entered the coffee shop but an ajar door gave way to the bar. The decor is a homage to the works of Nikola Tesla, which can be seen in the subtle electric theme throughout the space and the naming of the cocktails. The space isn't too large - the bar and stools take up most of the space but they also have some booths/tables. The place looks great. The cocktail menu is very creative - I got one of their seasonal mixes that was actually two drinks in one. The main cocktail was meant to be sipped first and they provided a small glass of beer to be sipped after. The name escapes me but it was very good. Since we had cocktails at dinner, we only stayed for one round. Service was good, and overall I enjoyed my time at Patent Pending. I would definitely return to explore more of their menu.

As I walked in and saw just how swanky this place is I panicked - there was no way we could just walk in here without a reservation, right? But the hostess was, thankfully, so down to earth. I was straight up like hey I totally messed up and thought we could just walk in here, she was like you know what, let me see what we have. Lo and behold, she did have a table for us - as long as we were out in an hour and a half, which was just the right amount of time. Stepping into this place feels like you're in some secret, super special cocktail club. Decor is super high end, vibes are upscale AF. The cocktail menu is incredible -- and incredibly pricey, but truly worth it. I ordered the Valentino which was strong and sweet, really well made. They gave out a complimentary nut mix that was also delicious. Service was swift and gracious. If you're looking for a spot to impress a date, this is it.

There's also seating on the second floor, perfect for couples or small groups. I tried two of their cocktails when I went. The first was the Eastern Julep, a delicious twist on a classic. The mint Moroccan tea gave the drink a cool, refreshing taste on every sip. I also tried the Silver Screen, the closest drink I could find to an old fashioned. It was interesting, there was definitely a hint of a buttery taste. Overall a really balanced bourbon drink. I walked in and found room at the standing tables. A bar seat eventually opened up but I was already on my second drink by then. Definitely make reservations if you're planning a visit!

    Tusk Bar inside The Evelyn Hotel feels like stepping into a well-kept secret from another century…read more The space leans fully into that Prohibition-era Art Deco elegance, low lighting, polished brass, velvet everything. It somehow manages to feel both refined and relaxed at the same time. The kind of place where you half expect to spot Hemingway in the corner pretending not to eavesdrop. We started with half a dozen oysters, which were fresh, briny, and exactly what you want with serious cocktails. Crisp, clean, gone in about three minutes. For drinks, we ordered the Smoke Show and the King Tusk. The Smoke Show was beautifully balanced. The Grey Goose vodka and Dolin Dry gave it that classic martini backbone, but the fino sherry and brine added depth. The smoked olive oil and blue cheese olive brought just enough savory drama without overpowering the glass. It was complex but not fussy. The King Tusk leaned more aromatic and layered. The vermouths gave it richness, while the Buddha's Hand and osmanthus flower added subtle citrus and floral notes that lingered in a really elegant way. It felt like a cocktail designed to be savored slowly. The music fit the mood perfectly, not too loud, just enough to give the room energy without killing conversation. Overall, it's a great spot if you want elevated drinks in a space that feels transportive without being pretentious. Definitely a place I'd come back to when I'm in the mood for a refined, slightly cinematic night out in Flatiron.

    I stopped by Clemente Bar with a friend who was staying at a nearby hotel. I had never been to…read moreEleven Madison Park before and wanted to check it out, not realizing at first that Clemente Bar is a separate concept from the restaurant. We walked in without a reservation around 6:20 p.m., and they were able to accommodate us at a shared table until 7:15. The menu surprised me a bit. Since I associated the address with Eleven Madison Park, I wasn't expecting to see items like wings stuffed with sausage, which were done in partnership with Jungsik. We ordered those along with the mushroom burger and asked them to cut the burger in half for us. The cocktail menu was creative and a little intimidating, with unconventional ingredients like cream cheese and green curry. I went with a fruity Hendrick's-based drink, and my friend ordered the spicy green curry martini. Both were good. Mine didn't taste very strong, but it also wasn't overly sweet because there was enough bitterness to balance it out. The green curry martini was more adventurous but still worked. Service was mixed. There was a woman standing near us, so we tried ordering food with her, but she seemed hesitant to come over. Maybe she wasn't a server or was newer. For drinks, she brought over someone more seasoned, who quickly helped guide us based on our preferred taste profiles. Her suggestions were very good. The mushroom burger was the highlight for me. It was a little salty, but the crispy mushroom and soft bun were a great combination. I honestly wished I had more than half. The wings were okay. They were crispy on the outside and juicy inside, but coated in a Dorito-like powder that made them very messy. Overall, it was a good experience, and I'd come back, especially for the mushroom burger.

Would recommend for a casual celebration or a coworker night out.
