Restaurants Perfect For Drunk Hook Ups
our suggestions
-
Highlands
150 W. 10th St, West Village, NYTraditionally Scottish, this gastropub brings the likes of cullen skink (fish and potato soup) and haggis (sheep’s ‘pluck’, heart, liver & lungs) to the Big Apple. We like it because it’s a great place to hang out on a cold night and drink brown liquor.

Pianos
158 Ludlow St., Lower East Side, NYIf you have ever been to Pianos to see a band in the back room, you probably didn’t expect that it’s the kind of place that would turn out some damn good bar food.

Wilfie & Nell
228 W. 4th St., West Village, NYWilfie & Nell is, first and foremost, a place you come to drink, rather than a place you come to eat. Consider it an added bonus that the bar food you’ll likely be eating while standing near a tiny ledge is pretty good.

Super Linda
109 W. Broadway, Tribeca, NYA question that we ask ourselves often – how soon is too soon to review a new restaurant? Well, when it’s one of these new eat-in night club hot spots, we feel it’s fair to judge right away. Super LIN-da may have only been open for a couple weeks, but we’re weighing in early on [...]

The Mulberry Project
149 Mulberry St., Little Italy, NYIt seems like every day now, there’s a new cocktail hot spot opening its doors in lower Manhattan. The latest being The Mulberry Project, a new “concept” featuring drinks from GoldBar and Milk & Honey alums and EATS by a dude who once ran kitchen at Boqueria. The whole “concept” here is mixology not confined [...]

Beauty & Essex
146 Essex St., Lower East Side, NYYeah, that’s right. Kim Kardashian. Who needs a photo of the restaurant when you’ve got Kim on the red carpet from opening night? By the way, what the f*ck is she wearing? Is she boarding a spaceship? I am going to hate this place. It’s amazing how one photo can really sum a place up. [...]

Sons of Essex
133 Essex St., Lower East Side, NYThe success of the Lower East Side mega-club restaurant Beauty & Essex was bound to create some copycat establishments. Lord knows that there are plenty of drunk girls to cater to down there, and they all have one birthday (week!) every year. So it didn’t surprise us to learn that a new, clubby restaurant opened [...]

Abe & Arthur’s
409 W. 14th St, Chelsea, NYOne day, you are going to have to face the reality that you just ended up at Abe & Arthur’s for dinner. Surely it wasn’t your call – someone from work “knows the manager”, or your meathead friend from college heard that this is the spot to meet drunk models. Either way, you just go [...]

Balaboosta
214 Mulberry St., Nolita, NYDudes, if you’re looking for a place to scout out lady prospects, look no further than Balaboosta. Never have we felt so outnumbered at a restaurant – it honestly felt like we were alone among fifty females…long hair, big bags and funky jewelry everywhere. And the noise level…holy sh*t. Earplugs are most definitely required. Balaboosta [...]

The Standard Grill
848 Washington St., Meatpacking District, NYNew York Magazine recently wrote up The Standard Grill under the title “Above Standard”. Well, guess what, we’ve got higher standards than that. This is one crazy scene, but the bottom line is that the food in this place is bad.
