| "Ready for another century", this 1884-vintage Midtowner is a "mainstay" for "elbow-to-elbow" "suits and regular people" "vying for beers" in the "nostalgic" downstairs taproom; though "more pricey" since being "polished up" and fitted out with second-floor dining, its a "true oldie but goodie", from the "chummy" bustle to the must-see "historic bathrooms"; N.B. a second location opened post-Survey in the World Financial Center. |

| Blue-chip "business execs" unwind at this "excellent" barroom set in the historic India House that oozes mens-club appeal; "cozy" and "serene", its just the place to take "new clients" or to have a quiet drink and "watch the goings-on in Hanover Square." |

| Way "off the beaten track" beneath the Brooklyn Bridge lies this "historic, very special" cafe thats been dispensing spirits since 1794; "comfy" and "intimate", its got that "classic old NY" thing down pat, and fans feel everyone "should stop there at least once" – just "not too late at night", as they usually close around 11 PM. |
