Waste of time. No pun intended. Cute but not worth the hype or wait. And the bubbles drink was not bubbly. Definitely too sweet. Zero service. Bartender was too cool for school. Will not be back.
Uneventful experience at Thyme Bar. Came for happy hour and we thought the drinks were just ok. Maybe we had higher expectations from what we've heard about the unique cocktails here, but it just seemed quite standard for upscale bars. As for food, we just snacked on the pickle platter and chips with caviar. Both good but also hard to be bad. The place is small and can feel cramped if you're here with a group.
Thyme used to be a fun, charming spot that I genuinely enjoyed visiting and bringing out-of-town friends to. I was warmly greeted by the gentleman at the door (5 service there), which set a great first impression. However, as soon as I walked downstairs, it felt like the space had lost its speakeasy vibe. I was seated right near the stairs and could feel cold air from outside every time the door opened, which made the experience uncomfortable. I was also surprised to see how much the cocktail menu had been reduced. When I asked about it, the response was that "the place changed a lot." That's fair -- places evolve -- but instead of highlighting the improvements or new strengths, the explanation focused negatively on what the bar used to be. As someone who really enjoyed the former version, that wasn't reassuring. Unfortunately, the drinks themselves didn't make up for it. One of the two cocktails was simply not good. No one came back to check on the drinks, and when I asked for the check after about 20 minutes, there was no acknowledgment that I had barely touched mine or any inquiry about my experience. Overall, a place I once enjoyed and recommended now feels more like a standard dive bar where " Mixologist " were replaced by bartender and were fun cool looking and tasty drinks were replaced by " less complex cocktail ", lacking the warmth and attention to detail that once made it special.
It is a hidden speakeasy bar with a dark, cozy vibe. You're taken downstairs to a small space with a few tables and bar stools around the bar. I think their menu changes often, which is nice. I ordered a drink without mentioning how sweet I wanted it, so I was a bit nervous but as soon as I took a sip, I said "perfectoo." It was so well-balanced and just right for me. We ordered a second round, and you could really tell they put a lot of love and thought into the drinks and the little details. The bartender was really friendly and even shared some stories behind the drink names. It was a unique and lovely experience.
Beautiful Speakeasy! One of my top favorites in NYC! To start, the ambiance is beyond gorgeous, romantic and sexy. It's a hidden gem that I found walking in the area. You'll be led downstairs in a small area that takes you to the bar. The space is nice, not too loud and others enjoying the one of a kind vibe! I've visited twice within the past few weeks and the bartender staff are incredible, good with recommendations and great at what they do! Cocktails are pricey but it's to be expected with the amount of time and creativity put into each crafted cocktail. The music is right, fitting the scene of the gem in the basement and the culture and vibe.
This place has been on my must hit list for a while, as I'd always heard they had very daring and creative cocktails. Maybe a little too much for my palette, because when we arrived nothing immediately spoke to me in the menu. It could be what they were serving up at this particular time. The flavors of our drinks were very... robust. Also for being an artisanal cocktail destination, they weren't able to do much for my boyfriend who doesn't drink. This can be hot or miss when we go out, but in my experience bartenders at these types of places are usually happy to accommodate. Very dark and intimate space, which was nice. The music was quite loud for a small space which was a slight drawback to an intimate spot.
Came in here for a nightcap - it's been on my list for quite some time as their drinks look so fancy! The service was great - our server was very witty and friendly. We got there too late to eat but had a few drinks -- it was pricey! But worth it for the experience. My favorite was the Agrabah which is the magic genie vessel and was a very good rum cocktail. The salt burn was great as well!
My friend and I had been wanting to come here for about 3 years now to try and do one of the tasting experiences. Our schedules finally lined up and we made our way to Thyme Bar on a weeknight. I believe the tasting menu themes changed and this time it was movie themed. I'd note, this is a small venue at the bottom of Chanson and it's a cozy space. It's perfect for a small, intimate group, but would err on the side of caution for parties of more than 4-5 people. I won't go into too much detail about the tasting experience as I personally think it will take away from it, but I and my friend personally thought it was worth every cent. The service was top notch - my glass never ran dry, they assisted with taking photos, and timed the presentation of each course perfectly. By dessert I felt that I had eaten more than enough food for the evening. Give yourself about 2 hours to truly enjoy every course. We had a fantastic waiter who went through what was in every course in great detail. So if you're reading this and if you're wondering if you should go, this is your sign.
I had Thyme Bar bookmarked since it was a rec from another bartender. My friend and I got there early so no issues with getting a table at the small speakeasy. The drinks were just okay in my opinion. I got the Guilty Pleasure as last resort bc the ones I wanted were crossed off the menu or crafted to serve 4-6 people. The Guilty Pleasure tasted like an extremely boozy and herbally White Russian. Not my favorite. I do appreciate the bartender who's super passionate in mixology. He's great and fun to watch from our table.
I had high expectations for Thyme but my experience fell flat. Thyme Bar is located below the Chanson coffee shop. There is no elevator and the staircase is required to enter. The host tonight was doing the work of 3 people - he was the host, clearing plates and also pouring water. Because of this, we waited a bit to get seated. The host has to go up and down the stairs to seat everyone, in addition to the other activities he was doing. We had a reservation which I recommend because the space is pretty tiny. There is one bathroom available. We sat at the bar, and were served promptly. The most disappointing aspects of this experience were the menu choices. The food options are very limiting, especially if you're a vegetarian. There was mostly seafood based food. We shared house tots and the sunchoke- the only two veggie options available. They were pretty good. The sunchoke had cherry on it which was overpowering. 3 seasonal desserts - we had the chocolate mousse with cherries. The mousse part was ok but overpowered by the tart cherries again. The menu currently online does not match what is being offered in person. I had a drink similar to a White Russian. It was ok but didn't stand out. Overall, I thought the food and drink options were lackluster here. I didn't feel excited by the menu. The graphic design of the menu is busy and kind of distracting to look at. The food section is located in the middle of the menu and that was a bit confusing. Service was good though and the bartenders were happy to offer recommendations. I would consider coming back if the menu was better, but since they don't update the website, it would be hard to know.
Great vibe and good service! But the cocktails were so-so. - Agrabah: 9/10 (loved the magic lamp-esque presentation and the cocktail tasted balanced and good.) - Love & duality: 5/10 (way too woody four our taste.)
Great drink. Nice place for a date night. Small but intimate. You don't have to shout over the music. Service was great.
Absolutely love this place! Great speakeasy with very unique, instagram-worthy cocktails. Follow the carpet to enter inside. Came as a party of 2 with no reservation on a Wednesday summer night around 8pm and were able to get seated right away. If you want to do the tasting menu (two cocktails and some combo of savory items and dessert), you have to book at least one day in advance on resy. They don't let you do it as a walk-in (though everything on the tasting menu you can still order a la carte). For drinks, my favorite cocktail of the night was definitely the mojito - a tasty watermelon mint drink that hangs from the ceiling (see photos). They were out of at least two different drinks that night, including the Manhattan, which my friend really wanted so was a little disappointing. For food, we got the oysters and sushi. The oysters were very good and I loved the mignonette it came with. I didn't love the sushi, which was some unique play on sushi with crispy rice and fruit. I didn't even taste the fish. 10/10 recommend.

Our reservation here included an amuse bouche, 2 drinks, a small plate, and dessert. The amuse bouche was amazing! Definitely one of my favorite parts of the evening. The drinks have wonderful presentations. The drinks change from time to time but my drinks included the abstract mandarin and a drink that mimicked a bubble bath (I forgot the name). Both drinks were made well but my favorite was the abstract mandarin. It was light and mandarin notes were perfect. The food is the reason I took off a star. My friend got the cheese board and the bread was stale. I got the truffle fries, which were also okay. For my dessert I got the saffron creme brulee. The saffron was just enough to have flavor and was not over powering at all. Overall the experience was nice, the waiting staff is very kind and knowledgeable about the menu read more

- extremely unique drinks here that hang by the ceiling, include a macaron, or pour out of an Aladdin genie bottle - the old fashioned with the Christian Dior diamond was super unique; tasted really good too - the genie bottle (Agrabah) was one of the coolest cocktails I've ever had The wait without a reservation is a few hours, so ensure that you have a reservation before coming here. The staff were super fun and courteous. Yombe at the front was very professional as well, even though he was getting constantly pressured for tables. read more

This place has always been on my list and my friends and I finally got the chance to try it one night. We sat at the bar which was cool because we got to see the bartender making every drink and there is so much creativity that goes behind these drinks. The drinks are pretty but that's pretty much it. It was quite difficult for us to finish our drinks (one of us didn't even finish), especially given the price. We go to speakeasies a lot so we're used to $18-$24 per drink but this place was a lot more and not as worth it. It just didn't taste good at all - 0/3 of the drinks we ordered were good in our opinion. I would personally go elsewhere for cheaper drinks that I actually enjoy drinking. My friends also agree that this isn't a place we would come back to. read more

Amazing speakeasy with creatively beautiful (and delicious) drinks!! I tried to get a walk-in table on a Thursday around 10pm and the wait was ~1hr. I recommend making a reservation ahead of time if you can. Regardless, it was well worth the wait! read more

Super fun cocktail bar that manages to stand out from the legions of cocktail bars in this city by their insanely creative presentations of the drinks, some of which are complex to the point of requiring instructions on how to drink them. The "tasting menu" is a great way to experience their fun drinks and food options. The food menu is vegan-friendly. Not sure how often I will be coming back here because of the slightly high prices for pretty small amounts of food and drinks, but it is definitely worth coming for the experience at least once. read more
After seeing some really cool photos and videos of this bar my friend and I decided to book a tasting experience through Resy. At the moment they are only accepting reservations for their tasting experience which is $85 per person for a 5 course experience that includes, a shot, two cocktails of your choice , and one an and a dessert of your choice. An 18% gratuity is expected at the end of the experience. Thyme bar is an extension of Chanson. It's located in the basement area of Chanson which they created into this intimate bar area. I wouldn't call it a speakeasy per day but it's a cool little spot that's great for a date night or with a small group of friends. Our server was great! Very friendly and attentive and explained to us how the experience works and what each selection would be like for the cocktails. Overall, had a fun girls night and enjoyed every bit of the experience. From the shot disguised as an oyster to my truffle fries, cocktails, and the dessert. It was sublime. The experience is definitely not on the cheap side, but definitely a cool experience to try out or for a special occasion. I believe they also take walk-ins but because the place is tiny, it's first come first serve. You also have to sit at the bar if you do not have a reservation. read more

Hidden away in the basement of Chanson (a patisserie shop) in Flatiron, this place is pretty small but extremely cute. The glasses are all very unique and great conversation starters, the drinks are interesting but nothing crazy. The fries smelt amazing. Service was good. read more
Thyme is a cool cozy spot. Space is small but contributes to the speakeasy vibe. Ordered the pornstar and corpse reviver. Presentation on all the drinks is 10/10. Not only were the drinks beautiful but it was well made and unique. Staff was very helpful and nice with recommendations.They check on you often and want to make sure you enjoy the experience. read more

Cute and cozy speakeasy that's always packed! Highly recommend a reservation. Love the ambiance inside but unfortunately it wasn't t worth it in my opinion. The drinks are really for the gram. Drinks are really pretty and creative but tastes okay and is pretty pricy. Once was enough for me, I don't think I would go back. read more
I've been wanting to visit Thyme Bar since their opening, and finally got my chance! I made a reservation through their website, but at 5pm on a Saturday there was plenty of open seating. We sat at the bar (nice because you get to watch the drinks get made) and were quickly approached by a very helpful server. The cocktails here are incredibly intricate and have a ton of unusual ingredients, so unless you're extremely knowledgeable, the server's advice is crucial. And most of the cocktails here are about $25, so choose wisely! I also loved that the menu showed how intricate the presentation of each cocktail was, with a cute little floral legend. I got the Primrose & Rye, which came in a nest with burning incense at the base - pretty good, tasted like a Whiskey Sour! My friend got the Health Bloom (similar to a mojito in appearance), which was my personal favorite, even though it doesn't come with any intricate presentation. My other two friends ordered the Ambre Nuit (comes in a lantern! pretty strong) and the Eucalyptus Watercolor (my least favorite, personally - just because the flowers at the base are edible, doesn't mean they taste good). Overall, a very memorable experience in a beautiful space! read more

This place is so cute that I' recommend it to every single of my friend who is looking for a fun cocktail bars. I tried 4 different types of drinks and love Oud and Chatpata Fizz. I will definitely return and try all of them at some point. It's very cozy inside, downstairs of a bakery shop. I went on a Sunday night so it's a relatively chill vibe. read more

As a lover of craft cocktails I was really looking forward to visiting Thyme Bar as the menu and pictures looked amazing but sad to say unless it was an unusually bad night the visit left much to be desired. Customer service: We arrived 20 minutes early and there were about 4 open tables but the hostess told us they were booked so we have to come back, ok I can respect that but when we came back the same 4 tables were still open. When we were finally seated we were given water in dirty cups, we requested new cups which we did not receive until after our last course. We were seated approximately 50 minutes before our hostess came to take our order and probably waited half an hour between courses. This was quite surprising to me given the limited menu comprised of only desserts, drinks, and appetizers coupled with the fact that there were 7 tables with mostly parties of 2 (yes I did the math because it was just that bad). The waiter was really attentive but not sure what is going on with management. Drinks: The presentation on all the drinks was GORGEOUS just as they are pictured in social media so if you are looking for beautiful cocktails or inspiration as a content creator then this is your place. Liajiao Mule: Mules are probably my go to drink when I'm not at a craft cocktail bar but this one sounded interesting with tobasco and mint chutney. I did not taste any of those flavors, it tasted almost like a regular mule unless that was the intent? If so they did a great job of hiding what sounded like a much more exciting cocktail. Thyme & Pellucid: Definitely forward on the Aloe but not in an overwhelming way more like a bit heavy handed on bitters. This drink came with a saline dropper to enhance the flavors. This was probably the best drink I had and the only one I finished. Light and refreshing. Primrose and Rye: The worst drink of the night. It just tasted watery and tart. I was expecting something more booze forward. Definitely did not finish this. Chatpata Fizz: Another BEAUTIFULLY presented drink but it ends there. This one comes with salmon skin to enhance the flavor. I am a vegetarian so I did not eat the salmon skin and cannot attest to whether it would have made things better but I can say that somehow the cocktail had a fishy essence and I did not finish this cocktail either. Food: If you are doing the ticketed experience go in knowing this will not fill you. I had the aranchini, which I tend to stay away from as they tend to be heavy, such is not the case here they were probably nickel-sized and you get about 5. These were not memorable and the quality subpar. Dessert: I didn't know you the dessert was pre-selected vanilla ice cream. Probably the highlight of the night outside of the presentation of the cocktails so I asked for the dessert menu so I could order something else given the rest of the experience was mostly inedible. What I received was more vanilla ice cream on the house for the long wait and pistachio eclair instead. read more
My group and I got seated at the bar and we were able to see all the bartenders work! It was really cool to see their skills and abilities whilst they made our drinks. We each got a different drink and every single one was different and had a special flare to it. The drinks were a little bit pricy but you're also paying for the ambience and talent. You can tell that there's care and specific attention paid to each one. read more

Came across this place because I wanted to take a special person on a date . This place caught my eye in Flatiron District. It was very exclusive and seemed dope. We both did the Emergence Package which included signature drinks and 2 entrees. Drinks were amazing were different from any other restaurant. I am guessing their main focus is the drinks. I definitely recommend this place . You won't be disappointed!! Ambiance- 10/10 Service - 10/10 Covid Precautions in Place Indoor and Outdoor as well read more

I came here on a girls day out. It was an easy commute so we told public transport. Thyme is conveniently located in the flatiron district. We were promptly seated downstairs. Thyme bar in general is an intimate and classy environment. The bartenders are probably mixologists or just very experienced in mixing drinks properly because the cocktails they curate are amazing. We didn't try food like that. We only had the truffle fries which were decent. In general, I will be returning and would definitely recommend this for a solo date, date night; or a meeting. read more

Every drink was the best drink I've ever had. Unique speakeasy that is more of an art gallery than a regular cocktail bar. Alexander, our bartender, should have his own Michelin Star. Every drink was crafted meticulously, with an unforgettable attention to detail and presentation. The drinks were absolutely incredible. Every drink had its own personality. Delicious, unique, fragrant, STRONG (one drink alone got me going), gorgeous, stunning, plentiful. No fun-sized cocktails, these were full-sized. Drinks are fairly priced. $23 per drink. With presentation and quality in mind, I found it more than fair. Alexander is a master at his art, and I'll never forget this incredible experience. GO TO THIS PLACE!!! read more

We came here in a group since the drinks are beautiful. You have to buy tickets in advance on their website - they have two option tiers (emergence 2 drinks, euphoria 3 drinks) with some exclusive drinks in the more expensive ticket tier (euphoria). Our group purchased the 2x drink 'emergence' experience. I wouldn't say the drinks themselves taste spectacular, but everything is very beautifully presented. It's definitely very insta-worthy and a lot of the drinks come in custom containers (planetarium, flower vases, etc.). I ordered the truffle fries which I thought were great (shoestring / thin fries are my favorite). They ran out of macarons so they upgraded us to the soft serve ice cream for free. I thought the ice cream was good but didn't taste strongly of the flavors (black sesame?). The bar is located in Patisserie Chanson if you're having a hard time finding it. I would recommend you check this place out if you're looking for a very visual experience. I think if you're super into the taste of cocktails and picky about that, then I wouldn't necessarily recommend this experience. read more
Have been wanting to come here for so long and so glad I finally made it here. Walked in on a Saturday night with a friend and was told there is a 45 minute wait. We left our name with the hostess and started making our way to another bar but got a text within 5 minutes that our table was ready. It's a pretty small space but cute and we were seated at the bar. Each drink we ordered was like an experience, hence the hefty prices. The drinks were strong and tasty. read more

Definitely exceeded my expectations thyme bar provides the most unique cocktail experience. The details that each cocktail is made- is to perfection. Not only are the drinks delicious but the presentation it's worth it all. Bar is a pre cellar speak easy vibe. Good for couple and very small groups. Smalls bites are just as delicious. The service was great. read more

Magical. Thyme Bar is magical. During our last visit to NYC, my husband suggested we swing by to grab drinks after dinner. I had not done any research on this place prior to our arrival, so I was blown away by the swanky, underground cocktail speakeasy. The space is beautiful, chic, and intimate. Perfect for dates and small group gatherings. I felt like I had been taken back in time to the 1920s in this softly lit, historic pre-war cellar. We got a coveted seat right at the bar - ideal for a bar like this where you can watch the bartenders in action. What Thyme Bar is known for is showing cocktails through art with botanical elements. Many of the cocktails are influenced by art and/or movement, and there's a unique emphasis on the visual component of cocktails. The menu is split into Le Jardin and Floriography. Drinks range from $16-22 for Le Jardin drinks and $25-30 for Floriography. While all the cocktails are crafted gorgeously, the ones under Floriography focus more intently on the presentation aspect. I chose the Hana Ni Arashi (Flower in a Storm) after a recommendation from our bartender. This is Iichiko Saiten sochu, ginseng infused Suntori Toki whisky, London Essence ginger beer, kummel, and lime. My husband selected the Chatpata Fizz, which is Ilegal Joven mezcal, chatpata soda (jasmine, wasabi, green tabasco, smoked salt), pandan, and lime. The Hana Ni Arashi - which comes in a teapot and teacup - is smoky, a bit spicy, and refreshing. It's Thyme Bar's take on a Moscow Mule, and my goodness is it invigorating and complex. The Chatpata Fizz is served in a terrarium, decorated with moss, and houses a glass contraption with three sections inside. You can drink from the bottom and middle sections. This drink is smoky, spicy, and sweet all at once. All around us, drinks were being carefully presented to customers. Two of the cocktails on the menu, Thé Noir and Coconino Rain, were hung in front of the guests from a decorative ring secured to the ceiling. The creativity of Thyme Bar is unparalleled to anything I've seen. Your senses will awaken here and be taken on this visually and gustatory stunning journey. Service was also superb. Our bartender was helpful, attentive, and friendly. It made our experience that much more spectacular. I can confidently say that we will be back at Thyme Bar anytime we're in New York. read more

Had an AMAZING experience at Thyme Bar this weekend (the coolest speakeasy), mostly due to our amazing server Sami! He was so kind and accommodating, and offered perfect drink recommendations for each one of us. We had a 30th birthday in the group and Sami genuinely wanted to make it an incredible night for her. The drinks were amazing and whole experience definitely memorable! I highly recommend the Euphoria experience and the Floriography drinks are my favorite because of the *fabulous* presentation. We got the Chapata Fizz, Savage and Sage, Ambre Nuit, Venus Eternity, and Queen of the Night. They were all amazing!! We ended the night with complimentary birthday desserts - thank you Sami! We will definitely be returning to Thyme. Be sure to make a reservation, walk ins are hard to come by. Cheers! read more

Dear Abida H.,…
Came here after a work event because it was close. We were thinking of having one more and my friend found this "speakeasy." We had to wait about 20 minutes. After about 10-15 min I asked to see a menu and realized drinks were $25+. We decided to stay but the price would definitely keep it to one. I picked a drink with whiskey and peanut butter. All the drinks were IGable - unique glasses, foam, flowers, and mine came with a macaron and smoke underneath. Everyone enjoyed their drinks. Mine was delicious and even came with dessert. We also ordered truffle fries which were thin but still crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. They were addicting especially with the aioli. We also ended up getting the sliders which came with three and super juicy. I don't know if I would come back because of the price but I enjoyed the drinks, food, service, and atmosphere. It was a great way to end the evening. read more
Such a cool speakeasy, my boyfriend has been trying to get in for awhile and we finally had the time to put our names down and waited for around 45 minutes. They sent us a text and gave 15 minutes to return. The drinks were the coolest I've ever seen though they were pricey ($25-30) but the presentation was crazy and the alcohol was definitely strong. We ordered the ambre nuit and the chatpata fizz. I didn't really love either of the drinks because of how Smokey and strong they were but they were well crafted! read more
Thyme Bar is a cozy trendy speakeasy in Flatiron. If you didn't know what you were looking for, you would never find it. The entrance is a tiny door next to Chanson. The drinks were high caliber, the food was excellent. The dessert was so entertaining! K and I went for drinks and to try some bar bites. I loved the design of this place! It felt like you were in a French wine cellar but still in Manhattan. Food: Pork Belly Sliders- these were so tender and flavorful! I loved the pickled shallots. It looked and tasted wonderful! Lobster and caviar toast points- This was so delicious! The lobster chunks were succulent and the caviar added a saline crunch. Thyme is a Circle (gin, milk punch, pineau des charentes, thyme, grapefruit)- this was so refreshing and light but packed a punch! Tastes slightly citrusy and not very sweet. Loved this! A Bird in the Hand (mezcal, bael fruit, lemongrass, tamarind, birds beak chilis, orange shaved ice) - this was a good strong drink. I liked the hint of citrus in this! "Cigar" dessert- this was very entertaining. I loved the smokiness and surprising taste of this dessert! It was like a chocolate egg roll with vanilla cream inside. It was definitely very video worthy! We had a great time! I would order all the same things again. I esp liked Thyme is a Circle. read more

We couldn't find it at first, so we called...here we were standing in front of it. The space is downstairs and really cool. The cocktails aren't cheap but are unique and incredibly presented. They also have a large selection of whiskeys, cordials, etc. Took my mom and sister to the city for a girl's trip and they loved the whole vibe of the place. Fun splurge! read more

An one time visit! Good vibe, speakeasy. Reservation is a must otherwise if you are lucky you can get a table within a 30/45 mins wait for a party of 2-3. We got seated on the corner near the door which was good as we could get the feel of the entire bar. They have those fancy fusion cocktails, good menu and fancy! The cocktails arrive in some or the other kinda uniqueness. My husbands was in a hanging container; mine was in a mushroom garden..caveat I hardly any drink! It was around $27 and just 5-6 sips of cocktail distributed within 3 tiny mushrooms, our friend got one in a succulent jar with some salmon skin. That was kinda interesting. Service was good and the server explained us each and every drink we were keen on. Not sure if I'll visit again, but worth a one time visit! read more
