A great 2-4-1 happy hour bar to meet up with your friends. Contemporary cool and not a dive. The outdoor patio keeps inside from getting too packed. Pop music. Good bartenders.
Alexander WinterJuly 3, 2014Dear XES, your AC is way too cold. I'm freezing inside when it's warm and beautiful outside. I do like your two for ones tho. Please just go a little easier on the AC. All I'm asking is 72 or 74.
The giant videos are entertaining but a little too mesmerizing. The outdoor area is pleasant and it is fun to look up whole standing out there.
This is one of my favorite cocktail spots in NYC. GREAT happy hour: 2-for-1 until 9 p.m. and they're strong. Also, this is one of the cooler Chelsea crowds you'll find.
The Corcoran GroupAugust 17, 2010Enjoy your 2-4-1 happy hour special on their outdoor patio. Fun events every night. Fun vibe and a eclectic mixed crowd.
- Joshua SeanMarch 30, 2014Great DJ. I'm presuming there may be a mani pedi spot near by that the employees regular here after work on Sat night? Cute / tiny lil dancers & did u just say ferragomo to me "WTF are those"?
A good mix of Midtown business folk and Chelsea homo's, with a little creepy bathroom grabbers thrown in for good mix. What more could you want?
My favorite bar in the city. Strong pours, no attitude, and the best happy hour ever. No trip to the city is complete without a stop here.
Keith A. Stiles, LMTJuly 10, 2010Great 2 for one drinks on Thursday when I went. Bartenders super nice. Nice crowd. They have kick ass a/c for when it's hot and a patio in the back.
Such a nice laid back place me and my bf love going here for drinks and the music
Strong 2 for 1 drinks at happy hour. What else can you ask for?
Claire J SongOctober 8, 2015Mon-Fri 4pm-9pm Two-for-one drinks every weekday till 9pm, 12-1am Saturday nights.
