Walked in here on a Friday night right when the upstairs bar opened (around 5PM) and was able to grab a seat at the bar. It's tiki-inspired with a fairly large list of signature cocktails. - I Wanna Be Adored (4.5/5) - A great cocktail. Fruity, but not too sweet, and well-balanced. - La Bailadora (4/5) - Also delicious, with a nice tequila/mezcal kick. The bartenders were friendly and skilled. Great music. It's a perfect spot for a date or to kick off a night out with fun, inventive cocktails. read more

Tiki themed bar but not tacky or gimmicky. It is more trendy and subtle about the theme. The vibe is buzzing on 6ish on a weekday. The whole staff is straight from heaven. Everyone showed us the highest level of hospitality. A bit of a wait to get ordered but it was definitely because it was super busy as summer winds down. My coworkers ate so I cant speak too much on the food but it all looked good. The jello shots were creative and potent. Had a spicy margarita that almost took me out in the best way possible. Overall great spot and great for happy hour vibes. read more

I came here for happy hour or as Jungle Bird calls it "early bird specials" with some friends. We chose to sit outside and it was great for people watching. There's a decent amount of space and tables inside and it didn't feel crowded. We got: - spicy mezcal margarita - pinke pinke rosé - Moscow Mule Overall early bird food is just for munching so don't expect big portions. - fries: I like the sauce it came with. Fries were crispy and thin. - scallion pancake Caesar wrap: this was easily the best thing we all ate that day!! We were obsessed. This is not on the early bird menu - pork belly bao buns: these weren't that big and could easily be eaten in 2 bites. I would pass on it - shrimp skewers: you can't really mess up grilled shrimp - chicken satay: pretty solid. It came with a peanut sauce that I couldn't eat - cucumber salad: my friends loved this. I couldn't eat it bechase it has peanuts Our server was great and let us order another round of drinks at 6:59 pm right before happy hour ended at 7 pm. We would definitely come back! read more

The food at this restaurant was really good as well as the drinks. It's a really great first date spot with the perfect level of noise and dim lighting. However, the service was rather slow. read more

Jungle Bird - JB Fries edamame dumplings, spring rolls - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Jungle bird was great! Great food and good drinks! The vibe and atmosphere is chill but very New York. Jungle bird is a dimly lit, aesthetically pleasing establishment with all walks of life dining. My friend and I got different cocktails twice and each of our drinks we enjoyed very much. The drinks are well made and balanced. JB serves itself to a tapas style type of dining to those who choose to do so with a nice variety of options to choose while you sip on a crafted cocktail. Our highlights were the pork bao buns, chicken and lemongrass dumplings, charred broccoli, chicken satay, and the ribs were yummy (loved the star anise flavoring) however, they were a little on the dry and overcooked side. Still very good flavor. The service was good. Our waiter was very attentive but also a bit pretentious when we sat down. We ordered close to 10 items and he didn't write anything down. He remembered 9 out of the 10 (kudos to him) but forgot our fries. We never received it and luckily weren't charged for it. He probably should write everything down next time so that he doesn't forget anything. We took our time and didn't feel rushed out on a busy Friday night which was nice. I would definitely come back here to try their other drinks and different food items on their menu. The Jungle Bird drink is their signature drink and I recommend trying for sure! read more

We came here in a group of 8 to celebrate 2 birthdays. Music was great the entire night. Drinks were great. We misplaced a phone and the security on staff went above and beyond to find it. Service was amazing and vibe was great. read more

I came here on a Sunday night and it was pretty lively. (We had just come from a different bar that was slowly winding down.) They play pop music (think Ariana Grande) and the area between the bar and tables becomes a little dance floor. I thought the decor was well done, definitely gave classier bar vibes rather than a club. However, because the music was pretty loud, I wouldn't necessarily recommend this place for an intimate date. It's more of a place to either start the party or to keep it going. Our server was very attentive and checked on us often, which I appreciated. read more

Fun place for happy hour! We didn't try any food however the service was outstanding and the drinks were really good. Super cute inside. Bathrooms are kind of dark so take your phone if you need to see what you're doing. read more

Love love love! Jungle bird was the cutest spot for a cocktail and late night snack! The dumplings were surprisingly delicious and the drinks were one of our favorites from the entire NYC trip! Decor and vibes were fun. You can tell it's a spot for both locals and tourists. Service was okay but it was packed. We were seated immediately and loved not having to fight over a space at the bar. read more

Jungle Bird is a vibe! Loved this place's vibe- modern and sleek- good food and drinks. I cannot wait to bring more of my girlfriends here. The signature cocktails are superb. They have lots of appetizers, including oysters (not pictured here) but were delicious. The jungle fries were also a hit. My friend made reservations for a Friday evening. We spent almost 2 hrs and they asked us to move to the bar after that time. The waiter was extremely nice but beware. All in all a great experience! read more

Jungle Bird - Bar area - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Decent food and drinks, weird / snippy service. We were in a large group last month and had a reservation for dinner with a hostess assigned to us. I was surprised upon arrival that the group was to be seated in 2 tables that were not adjacent, on both sides of a door. When we requested for the adjacent table to be set up for us once it was freed up, the server gave us an intense response saying they would not move the tables. Later we got more cold reception when we asked about bread options for the vegetarian at the table. Other than that , the food was not bad, in particular the spicy calamari which we got 2 orders of. Some of the gyoza were a little burnt. read more

Spacious cocktail bar with great music and bartenders. Lots of unique cocktail options and lots of well made traditional cocktails. The food looked and smelled amazing too, although we went primarily for cocktails. Really enjoyed the lychee Jell-O shots. Super delicious with bits of lychee and gold glitter ($10 per shot). read more

Went here Friday evening with two friends, just after happy hour had ended (7:30.) Inside, it was not busy at all, with a lot of open seats at the bar. Intended to go for a cocktail but ended up staying for two drinks, apps, and the Lychee Jell-O shots. Ambiance is trendy, with low lights and a lot of candlelight. Bathrooms were clean! I recommend the Bailadora cocktail and the shrimp skewers. The Jell-O shots were good, but not sure if they actually contained any alcohol, but I had to do it. Looking at the bar, they had a pretty good selection of Mezcals, Whiskey and Gin. My only gripe is that the bar started getting really crowded to the point where our seats were almost stolen when I got up to use the bathroom at the same time as one of my friends. There were many tables that said Reserved but no one ever sat at them for the 2 plus hours we were there, which was a bit perplexing. By the time we left at around 9:30, the bar was jumping. read more

Jungle Bird - JB Fries, Shrimp Skewers - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Attended a luncheon party. There's a parking lot down the street on 8th Ave.. Jungle Bird party room occupies the 2nd floor. Its well ventilated. Staffers were very good clearing and cleaning the tables constantly. Bartenders were on a roll making all Jungle Bird specialty cocktails. For a few years now all my friends has agree their cocktails are very good. However, the food lacks quality, taste and luster as you can see from my pics below. Music vibes was great but a bit too loud for a small venue. Their first floor is for their daily customers who wants to come and chill out for a drink. It's okay venue but nothing stands out as different or a place that says it's a cool place. It needs updating but they got their cocktails down. read more

Lively atmosphere, tiki vibes, chic decor, good music, great cocktails and food options - nice place to hangout with friends. We walked in on Saturday evening 6ishand it was packed. There were few tables available but we opted to hangout at the bar - They allow standing which is great. We ordered tequila and mezcal cocktails and ordered couple of appetizers once we got bar seating. Everything was amazing , really liked the place. Will definitely go again with friends. read more

Went here to catch up with a friend and sat by the bar. Roy was our bartender and was super sweet and attentive. We had some appetizers Jungle Bird French Fries Pork Belly Bao Buns Chicken & Lemongrass Dumplings Everything was really good. The presentation of the food was very nice. I had like a prayer cocktail and jungle bird cocktail. The cocktails were well made strong and delicious. These are not your average cocktails they have a lot of unique flavors and ingredients that you wouldn't find at your average bar. It's a nice vibe, great place to talk with someone and not be disturbed by extremely loud music or drunks. read more

Food and Drinks (4/5): I asked for a sweet drink but the one recommended was a bit bitter. Overall not a fan of the drinks but the food was pretty good. I liked the egg rolls, dumplings, fries and other apps. Overall the apps were well made with good sauces and seasoning. Service (4/5): Service was decent with people checking up on us occasionally but the recommendations on drinks were off base sometimes. For example, asking for a sweeter drink I got something on the bitter side. Sometimes the drinks and food took a while to come out too but it wasn't too bad. Ambiance (4/5): Came here for a company event where we had an area reserved. The overall place had a nice tropical theme but could've leaned a bit more into it. They had nice TVs though and plenty of space. read more

Food/Drink 8/10 We walked in and there was space, but this was also back in 2021. I just realized I had this review in my drafts but never posted it. I remember we ordered some Asian inspired snacks along with our drinks, and those were great. The drinks menu was also very tasty. Atmosphere 9/10 Vibey and energetic, a cool atmosphere. Service 7/10 There's not much service to remember, since it's a bar and I think everything came quite quickly as we sat near a bar area. read more

This is such a cute bar with really good drinks. Come here for happy hour. I came here for happy hour. The food and drink prices were a great deal but the options are limited.

The chicken and lemongrass dumplings were good enough for a cute snack. I will definitely be back for happy hour. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Jungle Bird. I rented out the upstairs for a private event. From start to finish their communication was incredible. The options for food were awesome. Once the event happened the day of communication was amazing. The space was amazing, the food was amazing, the bartenders were amazing. I highly recommend booking your next event there. I definitely want to go back to just dine. read more

We had been trying to go to another bar which had a private event and the doorman there told us to check out Jungle Bird and heck yeah that was the right move. There were a lot of people, but it also wasn't super packed. Just the right amount of crowd for a Wednesday night. Between our group we tried the Baby One More Time, the MMMBop the Devil I know, the Jungle Bird, the I Melt With You, and then probably more but I can't really remember. What I do remember is everything we drank was phenomenal. Inventive spins on things you've had, new things you hadn't even tried before. It was a great stop and a great addition to our evening! read more

Came here for dinner and drinks with a friend and was pleasantly surprised. I wasn't familiar with this place and came around 6:30 on a Tuesday and it was crazy busy, but managed to get a table. I recommend making a reservation. The drinks are quite good and the food is absolutely flavorful, albeit the portions are a bit small. The spicy barbecue skewers were cooked perfectly and the sauce is a nice balance between spicy and sweet. The fries are drenched with lemon and it's a pleasant taste. Service is pretty average and staff is nice. The prices are pretty average for that of Manhattan. It's a nice place - well decorated and clean, and I definitely will be back in the future. read more

Fun two story bar in Chelsea. We sat in the upstairs area which doesn't have table service but large windows and lots of natural light. I got the "I wanna be adored" cocktail which was gin based and super cute and girly. We also got the jungle fries to share and these were addictive. Whatever seasoning they used on these, I need it! Overall good spot for a happy hour or to grab drinks with a group. read more

Decent cocktail bar in Chelsea. The first floor tends to be a bit loud, FYI. Plan ahead with a reservation, particularly on the weekends.

If you are going to name you bar Jungle Bird, I am going to try it out! This bar is a solid 8/10 for me. Great location in Chelsea. We were there at a "shoulder" time, sort of in between the coolest times to be there, so the service was not on full display. But the drinks did not disappoint. Inventive and delicious. I did not sample the food menu, but I look forward to returning to do so. read more

Jungle Bird - The Jungle Bird - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New York, New York

If a bar is going to be called Jungle Bird, I'm going to stop by. I love me some jungle birds and when I walked in I expected to have some. This place was not a tiki bar as its name might suggest but was still a cool bar with good vibes. My first drink was the ungodly hour ($16) which was slightly sweet and easy to drink. It used Asian flavors and spirits like Japanese whiskey, shochu, and sake. The seaweed smell from the garnish when you take a sip was a perfect segway into the drink. My second drink was the jungle bird ($16) which was apparently their strongest drink on the menu. They made the drink using the tap shaped like a bird. It was slightly bitter from the campari but was still slightly sweet. The service was friendly and prompt even for how busy it was. It was a good place to stop by for a couple drinks. read more
