Enter through Cipriani on the balcony at Grand Central & you'll feel as if you have entered a bygone era. Drinks are expensive ($15 martini) but the atmosphere is worth it. Reserve a table in advance.
Happy Hour is from 5-7pm. This is a serious bar, with seriously good bespoke cocktails. Try the Sweeter Heater and the Mini Pulled Duck Sandwiches.
This is the place to get unique old-school NYC drinks. The bowtied bartenders can make you anything you want…or didn’t know you wanted. Also try the duck fat crisps.
Go through the phone booth at Crif Dogs and order a Benton’s Old Fashioned with bacon infused bourbon. Cocktails and gourmet hot dogs.
