    Love Art Bar! Such a great spot to meet up in West Village. But be warned-it gets PACKED! I've usually been able to squeeze and share a table if I come with just one person. But if you're coming with a bigger group, definitely come early. I had a YUMMY hot toddy that made me happy. I've been here quite a few times as it's my go to bar in West Village, but one afternoon I sat at the bar by myself with my hot toddy and it was so pleasant while empty. For obvious reasons, their happy hour deal is incredible and that's when it's nearly impossible to find a table. So if you can get there at the early end of happy hour, I'd recommend :) They also have food which isn't too bad! Oh...and jello shots out of these huge syringes! hahaha

    Just tried this place last night and we loved it! Go to the back room full of couches and lounging. The vibe is relaxed - comfortable. The drinks a great and very affordable. Our server was very nice and professional. Couldn't have had a better experience. We are going back tonight.

    Good for group setting if you can manage to find seating. Seating is random in the back as the chairs and placement are arranged for conversation. Would recommend for a chill more intimate vibe...not for pregaming

    Cool bar in the west village! I came here on a Friday with a friend and we were lucky enough to find 2 seats at the bar. Entire place was packed. We got: - Angry orchard cider - lychee martini ($13) - I didn't really like this... - martini - calamari - chicken fingers There's a cool loungey vibe space in the back that would have been cool to sit in but there were no seats available. There's 2 single stall bathrooms. Service was good. I'd come back again!

    Cute little hipster restaurant in west village. Had cute little tapas that were fresh. We enjoyed the fish tacos and loaded nachos.

    Drinks during happy hour didn't taste that great but the price is a huge plus. Update: Originally gave it a three star but now changing it to a one. I can't believe I ran into yet another dishonest business where they charge you more than what was written on the receipt. These businesses have absolutely no shame. BE SURE TO MAKE SURE THEY CHARGE U THE PRICE YOU WROTE

    Vegetarian sliders

    I was introduced to this place over a decade ago by grad school friends and remembered really liking it for their gin & tonics and veggie dumplings. I finally went again with my partner late on a weeknight after drinks elsewhere, and it didn't disappoint. The bartender was on her game and funny, and it was a racially-mixed crowd, which I pretty much insist on since it IS New York City. The dumplings are no longer on the menu, but the food we ordered came out fast: I loved my vegetarian sliders--you can get them with or without the cheddar cheese--and my partner (from Texas) enjoyed her 1/2 lb. sirloin hamburger and curly fries. I got the salad side but wanted a few fries, and once I encouraged my gf to have some of my salad she realized she didn't hate it, lol. Onion rings are the third side option, and best of all you can worry less about the fried stuff here as the vegetable oil they use has zero trans fats (if you care about this kind of stuff).

    The fire pit provided the warmth I needed.

    I'll keep it short. Nice ambiance, almost like a speakeasy vibe with the fire pit being the cherry on top, good drinks, and fast service. We ordered three drinks, paid the bill then to realize we were charged for four drinks. It took a while to find the waitress to address the problem, but once I showed her the mistake, she apologized and refunded the difference. I read on Google that this happened to another patron. I highly recommend you read your bill thoroughly before paying.

    Is there an area with a television? Specifically one that streams Knicks games?

    No - definitely not a sports bar by any means

    Yes

    How is this place for a gathering for coworkers farewell? Would love to try! Thank you in advanced for any tips! ??

    Tam, The back lounge area is great for coworkers hanging out. I would say, rent out the back area if you have more than 15 people to accommodate. Call the bar to get more… Read more

They have a…read moretight draft selection that rotates pretty often, and a pretty good can collection in the fridge. The staff have always been friendly and extremely knowledgeable; it is really handy when you can say you live in San Francisco, what do you have that I can only get out here? You can tell it is a good place in Hell's Kitchen/Times Square when stage hands and actors actually come by after (definitely not between) their shows. They also have whiskeys available here as a sidecar; definitely do not try and order any other liquors, the back of their staff shirt makes that clear. For food, I've only ever had the cheese curds because I obviously have a problem and can't get them at many places in SF. The portions are large and the prices reasonable. My only feedback to them is maybe offer some large format bottle pours on busy nights so people can try some of the more obscure options.

Got a nice dose of dive bar and it was exactly what I was looking for. The place is small, it is loud, there is a good selection of beers on tap and some more on bottles/cans from the fridge. Bartenders are just the right amount of "if you're not a regular you're fine but you're not special" and chatty friendly. What you'd expect from a hole in the wall with decently cheap beer (compared to just a block or two over).

Check-in was quick and easy, and even though it was a full house for a Saturday night, we were still able to find seats without an issue. The space was definitely lively and a bit crowded, but there was still enough room to move around comfortably. Our bartender was really sweet and made great drinks , the cranberry vodka and Long Island were both spot on. We didn't pay extra for the additional glasses to smash, but the six cups included were enough to make the experience fun and satisfying for a casual night. I can see why people would want to buy a full bucket though as it definitely adds to the excitement. The crowd was respectful, and the bathrooms were decently clean, which is always a plus. Overall, a great spot for an stress-relieving, spontaneous night out!

I called to find out a solution as the message said we could show up a half hour later than our original reservations and was transfered to a manager. Who ever the manager was on 5/17/26 at about 8 pm said ya they got the place from 2 pm good luck .
