Had my birthday party here and it was perfect. Great communication with Aelea before to reserve a space, everyone was super nice and accommodating. Love this place!
This bar is incredible. It's everything you want it to be, and more. You're able to talk, sit (in several different locations that are still inclusive and also intimate), dance, and be outside in the coolest most unpretentious area! The feel of this place is so cool/humble/straightforward/and yet incredibly interesting.
Getting in: It’s easy to miss Larry Lawrence as it is located down a long, concrete hallway demarcated by one word, “Bar.”
Vibe/layout: Before 11pm, this bar is nearly always deserted, but it does eventually fill up with people craving a quiet place to chat, drink and/or smoke, which you can do on the glassed-in upper-deck overlooking the bar. The earthy aspects of this bar, including the open, yet intimate space surrounded by brick, wood-paneling and custom furniture, give it a “ski-lodge” sort of feel. This spacious spot is dimly lit, stylish and sleek. On the ground floor, smoothly carved bar stools and wooden booths mark the perimeter, leaving a large amount of floor space for bigger crowds.
Drinks: Beers, wines, cocktails, shots… anything… it’s all about the atmosphere here.
F.Y.I.: This speakeasy is named after the owner’s childhood friend.
Straunt tip: Eat dinner at Caracas Arepa Bar next door, grab a drink at Larry Lawrence and then head to St.Mazie for anoth
Hidden spot makes it unassuming and chill. Friendly bartenders and spacious interior. Nice outdoor space to have a mid-drink cigarette. Prices are on the lower side, not a craft cocktail kind of place. Sometimes it can be jam packed but usually it's pretty open. Nice place for casual drinks!
Love this place. Great atmosphere not pretentious at all. Bartenders are nice and make a stiff drink. Little upstairs semi-enclosed patio is sweet for grabbing a quick smoke and/or some fresh air.
Make sure you know the address before trying to find this place, otherwise you'll have no luck. Once inside the hidden entrance, it's surprisingly large, and has a way more laid back feel than most of New York's other speakeasies. The cocktail list is small but good, and the bartenders can basically do whatever else you might be interested in. They're incredibly friendly too, despite being rushed at the bar. One of my favourite options in this area!
One of my favorite bars in the city. Somewhat secret and tucked away, but nonexclusive. Refined, but unpretentious. Decent tap and whiskey selection. Plenty of space to stand, but they take reservations for the limited seating.
It is hidden and you won't know it is a bar by just walking by it. It is dimly lit and you can see the smokers's lower bodies on the second floor. Interesting set up. I have gone a few time for friend's birthday drinks.
Great music. Nice open/lofty space and not crammed with people.
There is not much sitting space however, and it can take a while to get a drink during busy times.
Basically the prettiest bar I have been to. Candles light a bar that's quiet on weekdays with bartenders you definitely want to talk to. Drinks aren't cheap but the Presbyterian is worth it.
Most beautiful space, great vibes, awesome drinks, the best crew and staff, clean, spacious, really good music and the best terrace ever. Even the bathrooms are super pleasant.
Really great place to go for causal drinks. Fantastic atmosphere, a local favorite but a little hard to find unless you know its there
Great place, super cozy with music playing all the time, love the hidden entrance. Drinks are super cheap too.
