Inside
Taylor K.

Went for hh and will def go back. No hh deals but not super expensive. Got wine and sat at a table but the bar could also be a vibe. Sat 5 of us comfortably and our server was great. My friend got a Caesar salad and it was as good as you'd expect given the ambiance & general cozy nyc vibe.

Cheeseburger half mauled cause I couldn't wait

Best burger within a 5 block radius. Got the cheeseburger, amazing, will get the wagyu next time

Vodka soda, beer

I have been to this bar twice now and both times really enjoyed myself. The inside is beautiful and small, with a bar in the center and a large restroom in the back. The most recent time I went, I only had water and french fries as I'm participating in sober January, but the time prior I ordered a cocktail which was really well made. My friends enjoyed vodka sodas and beer. If you go early enough in the night, you can snag a seat at the bar but if not, it usually doesn't get extremely crowded. The French fries were some of the best I've had recently. Each fry was perfectly salted, hot and crispy and the portion itself was large enough to share and still be filling. I highly recommend this bar for a more sophisticated yet fun stop on a night out.

Almalfi Lemon Spritz

Overall: This is a new bar on the corner of W 4th St and Jones St. They've been working on this place forever and it finally has partially opened up. Decided to try it on a Saturday evening for drinks. Its a bit of a dark pub style bar. Only the upstairs is open right now, but they're finishing a downstairs area that will open eventually. It was an interesting place for drinks and has potential, but they have a few kinks they need to work out. I'll try it again, but probably only once the whole place is open. Drinks: 4 Service: 3 Value: 3 Atmosphere: 4 Drinks: We ordered a few rounds of beers and cocktails. The draught list isn't very extensive but they had good variety for the limited choices. The cocktails were decent with some interesting options (my girlfriend had the "Oscar the Grouch" drink that was neon green with mezcal and chartreuse). She also tried the "Almalfi Lemon Spritz", but thought it had too strong of a mint flavor. Service: The service was friendly when you could find them. The bar area is a bit of a horseshoe, with one clear area towards the front near the door and another hidden area around the back. There were two servers working and they seemed to frequently forget the back area. They would wander over once in a while, but not quite often enough. Value: Beers were a reasonable price, but the cocktails were $17 and nothing special. Atmosphere: The whole area was quite dark. Everything looks new, and the decor all fits. They're still working on the downstairs area so you have to walk through a bit of their work to get to the bathrooms. The music was very loud for a relatively empty bar when we showed up around 8pm. However, the bar filled up quickly and I've seen lines outside before.

Honestly so happy this spot opened up! A great new bar in the west village with an ideal layout. Even when it's crowded, more on the later side, there's a lot of different spaces to sit, stand, hang. The crowd is a great mix of ages, not too young. They always have something fun going on, Halloween they had a tarot card reader and fun eyeball Jell-O shots. Service is always quick at the bar, the perfect place to enjoy a Guinness. Oh and the fries are amazing! Highly recommend overall, this will be our go-to in the neighborhood. Beautiful and well done! Happy it opened!

Based only on wine, service was good and wine was good. Definitely gets busy as the evening goes on so if you want a table, arrive early.

Irish Breakfast

Have been to this regularly since its opening in the summer and it does not disappoint! The food is top notch and exactly what you want at a west village bar - great menu, good portion sizes and high quality ingredients (particularly the Irish breakfast which uses proper Irish sausage and Heinz beans... which as an Englishmen I appreciate!). But the burger and new brunch menu is also very good... highly recommend the frittata!! The service is always great too! The ambiance through the day is super chill and always have cracking playlists but the weekend DJ performances are a big hit! Highly recommend this spot and will for sure be a big favourite in the west village soon!!

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. Inventive cocktails. Had a great time here. REVIEW #4012

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!
