favorite nyc bar?
what's your favorite bar(s) in nyc?
my favorite bar in manhattan is burp castle, which bdk3clash hipped me to. haven't been there in a while though. love the decor and the quiet atmosphere, plus they have all kinds of good beer. favorite bar in bklyn is a tie between sweet-ups, on graham ave L stop, and the pour house, on metropolitan off the same stop. |

Re: favorite nyc bar?
haven't been to nyc in awhile but early 2004 my favorite place to go was misshapes (at luke and leroys, on 7th ave and leroy).
pretty sure that it's really played out by now though (heard hillary duff was there a few months ago, eww) and i don't think i'd go back. Edit: I also like Niagra down in alphabet city. Edit #2: I just wanted to point out that I'm not sure many people on this board would enjoy misshapes. It's mostly a ton of hipsters getting dressed down, listening to a dj spin [censored] like new order and fischerspooner, and doing coke everywhere that has a flat surface. Last time I went I took a friend who got denied at the door for being over dressed. |

Re: favorite nyc bar?
Since there is little chance of anyone picking a place above 20th street, Im going to go with an uptown sentimental favorite of mine, "Fez" on 85th and Bway.
In Brooklyn I like "Franks" in Fort Greene. What sealed the deal for me was when the DJ went from the Whispers "And the Beat Goes On" into the Talking Heads "Once In A Lifetime" and the crowd didnt even flinch. |
