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,

Friend lives nearby and recommended this spot for some happy hour and early dinner. Really delicious. They've got cute outdoor seating. Their menu is a QR code to scan so no pictures on that. But I snapped their dessert menu.
Parking sucks, welcome to manhattan but if you're on foot, easy peasy, swing by for their delicious happy hour drinks. Alcohol volume feels really high for some drinks but I'm not complaining!
Their food is well portioned, light, but filling, if that makes sense. It's fresh and their quesadillas were so yummy! Not to much oil but crispy and cheesy. Anyway, I highly recommend this if you're in the area!!

Very charming date spot! I went here for after-dinner drinks on a Tuesday night and there were so many other dates around. They have large windows on the sides that fully open when the weather’s warm.

There is live music on thursdays, saturdays and maybe on tuesdays as well? People in 30s or 49s go to this place. Food is good bartenders are nice people. My only frustration is being not able to find a seat at the bar even on weekdays. Damn.

Food was excellent, Saw waitress to take order for drink and meal. Brought my drink and didn't see her for the rest of my meal. A food runner brought me my plate and she brought me my check. Would have had a second beer had I had a chance to order it.

I came here for the first time on Friday after work with my boyfriend. The place was crowded but we were seated immediately. (They have indoor & outdoor seating) For appetizers we ordered the cauliflower and fried calamari. The cauliflower was AMAZING, the calamari was okay. For our entrees we had chicken quesadilla and chicken penne pasta, I added shrimp to my dish. I felt like it could've had more flavor but it was good. The service was attentive and friendly and it was a beautiful restaurant. The bill was just under $100. We would definitely return here.

The atmosphere here is amazing, service is pretty fast. I didn't like the chicken after eating about 35% of it. I felt a little sceptical but I asked the server to change it because i didn't like it and they did. So great job on the service!!!! I changed it for the scallops and shrimp.

One of my new favourite bars in the city! We walked past and was immediately drawn to the live music and plenty of outdoor seating. The food and drinks were delicious and the service was excellent. We look forward to coming back!
