I love Banc. I have been coming here more recently! It's one of the only places around the neighborhood to provide actual happy hour prices, lol. But the vibe is fantastic. Whether you sit at the bar or dine at a table, everyone is friendly and nice. I love their fries, buffalo, and sweet chili wings, and they make the best cosmos. The only thing I would say is I wish for their dessert menu. Overall, I got a 10/10, and I found my new work hang spot!
Came here to celebrate a special occasion with about a dozen friends. Located on the corner of Third & 30th, with the west facing side completely open, made for a very cool, comfortable breeze and an unobstructed view of all the action passing by on the avenue. Employees were friendly and seems happy to help us. Food was brought out regularly and was pretty tasty. Mostly finger food and desserts. We never felt ignored, nor were the servers overly intrusive. Drinks were very good. Place was crowded but not annoyingly so. Bathrooms were very clean. I could have sat there all day.
Banc happy hour is an awesome eclectic taste sensation (and a great deal!). The bao buns and empanadas are especially good, and the sorbet is awesome!
With a $9 kids menu, and $10 happy hour plates this may become our go-to eat out!
This is a restaurant with a great atmosphere on the West side of Manhattan. The service staff were attentive and gave great recommendations about menu items. The filet mignon baguette was very unique and quite delicious, and the atmosphere was very welcoming and bright. There is a good amount of outdoor seating, which is fantastic when the weather is permitting. Overall, a comfortable place to relax and enjoy delicious food.
Always wanted to come here because it’s always crowded. Liked deco ambience music vibe . Came by today 2/19 to have brunch ordered Banc Benedict bacon was still and biscuit was hard. Coffee was very good . Waitress served coffee forgot the spoons to stir. We had to remind her. Menu limited for breakfast but they have lots of drinks on it
Always have been a fan of this place. Overall a great happy hour spot with a more upscale feel versus the other notorious post college bars in the area. The food is always great and the drinks/cocktails don’t disappoint. Servers are always great as well!
Great place to stop for late night drinks! We were seated instantly (they have plenty of outdoor and indoor seating) and the service was extremely quick. Drinks are reasonably priced and STRONG. The chicken tenders were a bit dry but were piping hot and a good snack. Our server was friendly and fast which is all you can ask for. Would recommend!
Went with 4 friends, seated in a round banquette for 6 at lunch.
We all loved the menu, sharing 3 appetizers, then each having a main salad.
Service was efficient and friendly.
We'll definitely return.
I'm in a book club and we met up at this cafe on a rainy afternoon. The waitstaff were a bit persistent in getting us to order things. I wasn't feeling too hungry so just got a side of turkey bacon and a ginger ale.
As I ate the bacon, I discovered a thin piece of metal cooked in it, like a piece of aluminum or twist tie. Other people had no issues with their small meals.
Overall the place has an upscale atmosphere.
Just discovered a place to have great drinks and snacks!
I need more of those goat cheese croquettes, they're delicious!!
The jalapeño frozen margarita was a revelation for a hot day in the city.
My husband had the chicken tacos and he really liked them, just felt like a good spicy sauce was missing, we're mexicans, we can't help it.
The fries with parmesan are good but not great, I would try other thing next time,
