Gem of a find I'd never have come across without the aid of Yelp! Was traveling with friends, some of whom wished to do some shopping while two of us preferred other options! Found this with some searching and enabled all to have joy. The shopping crew did their thing while we snagged the final two seats at this posh but relaxed little bar happily tucked into the Bergdorf Goodman's Men's Store. Never would've expected it, pleasant surprise indeed! Did not try the food (though the small menu looked to have some quality options), but the bartenders were excellent (friendly and helpful), and the drinks were top-notch (always appreciate a healthy pour). Everyone was game to chat a bit, which I also always appreciate at a bar. While it began with a convenient diversion, I'll be making a deliberate stop next time I'm in town. read more

Goodman’s Bar - A delightful 15-year Macallan's - Bars Near Me - New York, New York

I've been here for only a short time, and already several workers have screamed over my head at patrons or each other. I find that to be rather rude and unbecoming of what is probably supposed to be ... hmmm ... an "upscale" establishment. Yet another place where workers act like their socializing and their drama are more important than ... I dunno ... doing their jobs? Not sure what happened to my order, either ... it seems to have disappeared. ‍ read more

S/o to Eric first and foremost for his great hospitality. We came in as walk-in no reserve and easier got accommodated but definitely recommend making reservations considering the place is neat and has comfortable seating indoors. My friend and I were impressed by the richness in flavor on the drinks I believe he got a spritz and the ice cream was good. Coming back for sure! read more

Goodman’s Bar - Mai tai - Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Came into the birthday petty. :) Excellent services and food are great :) they'll serve you water and bread..... all the food order stop by 6pm. (Restaurant services close at 7pm) There're 2 restaurants. One in the basement another one is on 7F incl bars. both pretty and different decor. 7F can see the whole Manhattan view if you take a window side. Even if you don't take the window side, you'll still can see the nice view. Tea is delicious!! I highly recommend here. Bathroom is outside the restaurant and sharing with Department store's customers. men and women bathrooms are separated. You don't need to wait the line. I just took one star off. Environmental impact.... Other customers seemed to be in a bad mood. They brought their personal anger into the restaurant. You might be noticeably surprised! (Rude, anger, and super loud voice lol ) I added photos I hope it will help. read more

Pure class, deliciously done. Come for the shopping. Stay for good food and great drink (and then some more shopping). Aysa, Eva, and Eric were sublime and we had a decadently good time. We especially love the martinis, the caviar, but their soup was the surprise hit. read more

5/5 Decor - love the vibes in here 5/5 Service - attentive and thoughtful service 5/5 Ambiance - doesn't feel like you're in the men's department of BG - the corner feels slightly hidden 4.5/5 Cream of Mushroom soup $14: creamy, subtle hint of spice (likely fresh cracked pepper), the mushrooms are all blended in so if you don't like the texture of mushrooms but enjoy the flavor, you can take a gander. I would have preferred a more mushroomy flavor overall but loved that it was served hot. 3/5 Short Rib tacos $18: decent, too wet (the tortillas arrive soggy and when you pick up the taco, it left a significant liquid residue on the dish). Surprisingly the short ribs themselves were on the dry side (maybe too lean?) despite how wet the tortillas were. Could have used some more green sauce. Otherwise, decent average taco, nothing to write home about. Wish it was fattier. read more

Goodman's Bar was a casual experience. Located on the second floor in the middle of the men's department store section, Goodman's Bar serves both food and drinks. To eat I got the Crème Fraîche which I found to be just okay. There was a strong taste of citrus which took away from the rest of the dish. In terms of drinks, I got a gin-based cocktail which tasted good. For both drinks and food, the price was a little more than seemed justified by the quality. As far as the layout and seating, it's a small area with a large bar and a few tables around it. Overall, it is an interesting experience if you are in the area, but I do not think I would go out of my way to check out Goodman's Bar. read more

Goodman’s Bar - Gorgeous little cosy bar - Bars Near Me - New York, New York

The drink I ordered, "The Bear Minimum" ironically represented the level of service offered. Interaction with clients wildly varied. The witty banter shared with other clients vanished when the patrons departed. It was very strange. Posting a very short review, to return later. I'm stunned by the indifferent behavior of the bartenders. (*Not* the cocktail hostess, who was adorable.) If the bartenders deem a patron worthy, exemplary service will be provided. Dress casual at your own risk. read more

Goodman’s Bar - The Bear Minimum - Bars Near Me - New York, New York

My next trip to New York and of course this was my first stop! We had to revisit some of the same menu items as well as trying some new seasonal options. - I hope the Birria tacos and caviar/creme fraiche always stay on the all seasons menu, they're so delicious! - The tomato bisque soup was delicious, but it falls short to the squash soup last fall. - The grilled peach and burrata salad is the type of item my palette always craves, I just wish it had more than 3 slices of peaches. - Crab cake was great, just a tad too salty (and I tend to like food on the saltier side). - The Cuban sandwich was one of the best I've had, also the perfect portion! Cuban sandwiches can be really heavy and filling from all the flavors and fillings, but the portion size was the perfect amazing to keep me content. - The cherrie chocolate bites were good, but I don't like to mix my fruit with chocolate (unless it's star berries and Nutella). - Howeverrrr, not pictured are the freshly made Madeline bites that tasted like heaven!! I don't care how full you get, you should get them every time you come to Goodmans Bar. The 2 gentlemen that work behind the bar there are exceptional, amazing service and they are the best baristas and mixologists, don't believe me? Go find out for yourself read more

I had an exceptional experience at Goodman's. The service was superb and attentive without being overbearing (Asa is magisterial). The drink program is thoughtful. We had Bear Minimum and The Dainty Earl and loved the flavor profiles; The Dainty Earl had expertly balanced tannins. The food was well executed. We had the caviar and potato leek soup. The ambiance was fun and unique! I look forward to returning. read more

Was looking for a special place that was "off the beaten path but in the middle of everything" to grab a cocktail and found Goodman's located inside the men's store at Bergdorf Goodman's. While this is a newer addition to the Bergdorf family, the expertise across the team is second to none. The bar area itself harks back to bygone days with its elegant wall treatments, lighting and mural of Central Park while feeling fresh and hip. The intimate setting is perfection. Our experience was curated by Asa who recommended two of the finest cocktails to begin our journey and even offered a whiskey tasting to get to know our palette. Chef Gio takes particular care to ensure every dish is full of love and adventure-I highly recommend the Beef Tartar and the Bibb salad with shrimp but the star of the show is Gio's cavier presentation which is highly approachable even for someone that was brand new to cavier. The crème fresh was joined with subtle hints of horseradish, lemon and chive which balanced the slightly salty perfection of the cavier. The custom potato chips made a light but substantial foundation to play with, making every bite unique and balanced. Asa's paring of champagne took the flavor journey to new heights while Eva's service and conversation made us feel as though we were regulars. If you are looking for a wonderful experience beyond great food and drinks you MUST visit Goodman's. read more

A true hidden gem! Visited NYC for the weekend and Ace and Ivan were the highlight of our trip. They truly went above and beyond. The drinks, food, and atmosphere 10/10. Will definitely be back soon read more

A beautiful (and much needed) oasis in the concrete jungle. I'm always at a loss as to where to go in midtown to catch-up with friends and I'm glad to say that this will be my new go-to. Located on floor 2 of the men's Bergdorf Goodman, you'll find a charming and exquisitely decorated space (not surprising). It's intimate and opulent, yet not overbearing, and you'll instantly be transported away from the bustle of the city. The cocktails are mindfully made and the food is pretty spectacular. Picture this: delicious parker rolls, beef tartare and duck that make your eyes widen with joy and shout "wow, this is amazing". Do yourself a favor, put this on your list of places to try next. read more

I walked in the front staff was very friendly. The bar was extremely crowded. However, the bartender followed me from the front entrance and asked me for a drink immediately. He was super fast. There was no room at the bar, but they accommodated me, and let me sit outside in the front by myself. I would recommend this place to anyone. Fast, efficient, and good drinks read more
