Beer Store · West Village · 27 tips and reviews
Dan E: Carry some excellent beers including Shiner and Abita
Swig: This store has an excellent selection of rare and hard to find beers. Great stop if you are looking for something in particular or just browsing. Remember to Swig your drink.
Jeff Petriello: A newly hidden gem of the West village. Hundreds of awesome beers and last minute party supplies like solo cups, pong balls, and mixers. Also growler taps are always changing with the seasons.
Kaydee: Fantastic beers, try Abita pecan. Dinner is delicious (chicken and salmon) and the whole bar has great decorations. But it's empty. Why? Everything is overpriced and not inventive. Really too bad!
!:gem:!: Management is wonderful. All different rooms in which to sit. Can be very romantic or perfect for a group. A special historical New York moment.
Kathryn Yu: This restaurant has a false wooden tooth which purportedly once belonged to the Father of our Country.

Liquor Store · Upper East Side · 8 tips and reviews
Jeff Byrnes: Absolutely stellar selection of spirits, and especially great for liqueur. Tons of amari, vermouth, aperitifs, & digestifs.
Noble Hill wines: Have a hankering for bubbly? We make 1,200 bottles of single-vineyard estate Blanc de blancs each year. 12 of those bottles are in this store, patiently waiting for your next celebration.
Scott Bleicher: THE bottle shop for local booze- NYS whiskey, rum, gin, vodka, vermouth...you name it and manager Charles and owner Frank know it.

Sandwich Spot · Theater District · 70 tips and reviews
Bryant Balatbat: The sandwiches are large enough to split between two people. The fried chicken one was quite tasty. If you love root beer, make sure to try the Abita brew.
Sasha Chinnaya: It's a chill environment and the food is absolute comfort, especially if you love grilled cheeses. My favorite is the Truffle Melt.
Nick Cruz: Delicous grilled cheese... tell the people that are working there that they are chessey and watch what happens :)

Jase: Start w. Crawfish Gumbo Fritters, Try the Scallop & Honey Grits or Corn Flake Crusted Chicken! Abita Jockamo IPA is on tap.
Waleska: Had the restaurant week menu- petit filet mignon with kale. Delicious! The bread they serve is good too. Our waitress was very attentive and accommodating. Nice ambiance.
Thrillist: Enliven your tastebuds with Gravy’s “Amarillo Air Raid,” a spicy ‘tail that unlike the Texas Panhandle city's infamous 72oz steak, is a real eye-opener.

Jeremy Davis: Get the cheesesteak egg rolls and an Abita Turbodog to start.
Lauren: There are TWO - one is a restaurant, one is a grille. The grille is GREAT for happy hour - I highly recommend the flatbreads, especially the prosciutto and arugula one.
Rewan Parti: Cheesesteak egg rolls, filet mignon and side of fries! Also order the flatbreads they are delicious.

Brittany Thompson: Nice low key bar. Drinks are pretty cheap!! $5 for an Abita Purple Haze??! Keep em coming bartender!!
