Whiskey

The copper still has what is probably my favorite happy hour in the city!! My partner and I come fairly frequently (which is a big deal itself since we try to avoid repeating places) when we find ourselves in east village and it never disappoints. Their happy hour goes until 8pm which is a huge plus if you're working late, and consists of $10 cocktails and cheap drafts. There is also a deal on a guinness and a shot for $12! My go to cocktail on the happy hour menu is the antioxidant, which while sweet, is also quite spirit forward. Copper still also has a large whiskey list, which my partner always looks forward to browsing and ordering from . But the real star of the happy hour is the hot chicken slider, which we both agree is in our top 3 chicken sandwich in the city.. and each one is only $3. We order those and tater tots (not on happy hour but a generous portion for the price) and are set for food! The tater tots come with a housemade bacon ranch, which while I'm not a fan of ranch, I am OBSESSED with this bacon ranch. Pro tip, try to get extra bacon ranch so you can put some on the sliders too. It's dynamite.

Tater Tots

So happy we stumbled into this spot. We were trying to watch a football game but our local college bar was too crowded. We finally found this spot after visiting a few others, and got a table for 7. Drink prices were much more reasonable compared to other places we were looking at. Food looked delicious and also was reasonably priced. Staff was super friendly and put the game on all TVs for us. They even had a live band in there who were wrapping up just as we came in, so we got to enjoy some awesome music. The pulled pork sandwich was great. I loved the She Hulk, but the TATOR TOTS WERE SO CRISPY! Piping hot too. So grateful for all the accommodating staff that got us everything we needed.

Dirty glass. This place is terrible!

We just made happy hour and half the drinks were pure sugar. The other half were pure ginger beer. We all had complaints. The waitress doesn't understand what a vegetarian is so asked me if I wanted "no sauce" instead of a vegetarian sauce bc most have bacon. They brought us all an " extra shot" for our beverages and it still taste like water. Part of me wants to walk out and say "you know better". Come if you're under 25 and just dgaf. P.S. look at this cup. I've only drank out of a straw and the glass is so dirty! Tater tots are too fried and hollow! I will never come back.

Came here since the place was big enough for our party of 11. They seated us at this bar table area with this big concrete pole between us so I couldn't see half of the table. We got a bunch of brunch entrees all of it was just okay. I got the fried chicken and waffles. The waffles were really good. The fried chicken was kinda soggy and needed more seasoning. My other friends said their entrees were okay but nothing special. I should have picked more of a restaurant type feel but it was our last brunch in the city so it was good to fill out belly's before we left.

Fried Chicken Sandwich

2 hours bottomless brunch for $25 pp plus entree. The mimosas definitely hit. It's not all orange juice; they aren't shy on the champagne. The fried chicken sandwich was good but weird that it doesn't come with any sides. I got a side of fries to go with my sandwich. They are not strict on the two hours. I got there around 2:15pm and around 5pm I was still here enjoying the bottomless mimosas.

Great HH spot, keep in mind when you order the fried chicken burger and pulled pork burger it's priced per, so you have to order more than one if you plan on sharing. I think the cocktails were way too sweet but the beer and mixed drinks are normal. Seating is kind of tight i would say

Bourbon selection

Bar tender was happy to share all about the bourbons on the shelf. And they have a selection in tap if you're not a brown liquor kinda gal

Buffalo Wings
Channing H.

I had been meaning to try this place for a while but have to say I was a little disappointed. First off, I ordered a Maine Lunch IPA and received a 10 ounce pour instead of a pint. It wasn't listed as smaller pour on the menu and I wasn't warned by the bartender. When I asked about it later, they just said that that's the way they pour it with not much apology or remedy. I think it's really messed up that they charge $9 for a 10oz pour for a beer that's not super special and not a super high ABV. The food was also pretty mediocre. Frozen breaded buffalo wings with no effort to make homemade buffalo sauce or blue cheese. Even the fries were lacking. Undercooked and not crispy. The only thing they had going for them was having the World Cup games on with sound. Thank you for that. But I don't think I will go back.

The Spaniard is a spot for a real drink if you're in the mood…read more I've been here a few times. The last time was a couple of weeks ago, were in town for the weekend. After a nice stop and a secret garden in west Greenwich, I decided to use the points I had racked up and suggested a beverage at the Spaniard. It was agreed upon, in part as i suggested "they probably have a nice bathroom". Of which they did. It helped they had a nice house drink menu too. My gal found something she would like, and she did. After a fun drink off their menu I got a scotch. Old Putney 12 year. Actually the bartender came up and said they were out, would I want a 18 year or 20 year, something like that. it was a bit more money but it was he last beverage of the weekend trip so I got it. My Lourd it was good. If we had time I would have gotten an Oban they had, but we were off. But we will be back, maybe this year. And if I have racked up enough points in the area, I will suggest this excellent whisky bar.

Walking through the cold streets, I stumbled upon The Spaniard which has quickly become one of my favorite NY destinations! We were there for a quick 30 hour trip to experience the "Holiday Magic". After a long day of travel, we just needed something good. We arrived and they accommodated us in a back booth tucked behind the bar, perfect! Our waiter was a delight and very responsive. The martini was kick-ass and our waiter was kind enough to offer us many recommendations. We landed on Charbroiled Oysters, Steak Tartare, and French Onion Dip. Someone slap me, I'm drooling while I write this review over a year later. Seriously, phenomenal. Every bite was amazing! We cleared the table and manged a few cocktails during our time with The Spaniard. If you are ever in the West Village, stop by, you won't be sorry! Thanks me later, actually!

As for food, there were some true hits but most of the food was good but basic. The highlights for me were the wild mushrooms & rice cakes as well as the Caesar salad - loved the use of nori in the salad and would definitely come back for the mushrooms. The chicken cutlet and chicken dumplings were fine but I probably wouldn't order them again. The wait staff weren't super attentive nor super warm, but they were efficient when we asked for water refills, etc. There was ample standing room at the bar while we waited for our friends, but the table/booth that we sat at was super narrow, I was knocking knees with my friend all night and generally felt squished.

Later, we made a separate rez for a party of two as we had two more people join and there weren't any openings for a party of six. They were nice enough to combined the two bookings and give us one table when we checked in. I got the chinatown no 5. I was born in sf chinatown and my last name in chinese is the number 5, so I figured it was meant to be. Very cute presentation. The cocktail is in a bottle, so you end up with more than one pour. Nice since the rest of my party could try. I did have another cocktail afterwards, but I cannot remember what it was for the life of me. I enjoyed sipping on it tho. Our server was sooo sweet. Friendly, attentive, and informative. The cocktails here are definitely creative, so she was very helpful in guiding us towards what we may like and describing the different drinks.

Not surprising, then, that it was pretty packed by the time we finished dinner, at 10:30ish. Serptentine has a solid cocktail list, one that definitely reflects the West Village sensibility. The drinks are all clear variations of classics (ie., martini, negroni, espresso martini, margarita, old fashioned, etc.) but with some added intrigue. All well-executed and made efficiently, which is very impressive during weekend primetime. If you're not nearby I wouldn't make a trip to the area just for Serpentine, but it's a fantastic option if you live/work in the neighborhood and/or are getting a meal in the area and are looking for a bar to start or end at. As I mentioned, it was relatively busy when we arrived here. There weren't any open seats initially but the host said we could hang around the bar for a bit, as he expected a table to open soon. It was probably 10 minutes before we were sat which is basically like being sat immediately in New York time. And generally, the staff here were great -- very personable and accommodating, quick service, only praise in that area. The vibes here are cozy but lively, giving more of a friend hangout than a date (it's also relatively loud so not ideal for conversation if you're sitting across from someone at a table, versus standing and mingling or sitting on bar stools). If you're a dirty martini person you are in luck here, because the Serpentini (grey goose vodka, dry vermouth, olive brine, pepperocini liqueur) is unlike any other. And I get dirty martinis pretty much everywhere I go, so that's saying something. Why is it so unique, you may ask? Well, the pepperocini liqueur is a nice touch and props to whoever decided it was necessary to make such a thing. But the real game changer is the sidecar. You may be thinking -- how is a sidecar unique? Well, it's not just any sidecar...it is not filled with more martini but simply PURE FILTHY BRINE. I mean, if you're ordering a dirty martini, you probably would take a bath in olive brine, brush your teeth with olive brine -- hell, maybe even your contact solution is just olive brine. Want to make your martini dirtier as you drink it? Serpentine has you covered. It is so simple and obvious yet I've never experienced it before. And, because I've never met someone who loves dirty martinis who doesn't also drool over blue cheese-stuff olives, the Serpentini's got that too. Though less exciting and groundbreaking, Mezcal Negroni (ilegal mezcal, campari, averna amaro, lo-fi gentian amaro) is also solid. I love a mezcal negroni and this one is relatively straightforward, just a subtle variation with a few different amaros to add some complexity and herbal notes. A fun and versatile neighborhood spot. It's in prime location so I imagine to rent is absurd, so fingers crossed that it sticks around!
