Choose your poison – there's a New York bar or pub to match
Cocktails are an essential part of the New York bars and pubs mythology, and you’ll certainly find no shortage of sleek lounges helmed by master mixologists. But there’s a growing trend for wine bars, specialist beer pubs and, most recently whiskey bars where spirits are served straight up. Most establishments stay open until the wee hours, and the hottest bar-hopping areas are the East Village, the Lower East Side and Williamsburg in Brooklyn.
