| An "amazing date spot", this "smooth" Lower East Side double-decker vends "great little bites" downstairs and "expensive" cocktails above in its "plush" lounge; what with the "good lighting", "beautiful peeps" and "strong drinks" ("I was told I had fun"), its often "annoyingly crowded" and "so loud that you cant hear a thing." |

| Named for decadent poet Paul Verlaine, this Lower East Side lounge pours "delish" "eclectic" cocktails in a "plush" setting with "great background music"; its a go-to if you "want to be cool", and even starving bards can "keep on ordering" since the twofer deal lasts "till 10 PM." |

| "So many hipsters, so little time" says it all about this triple-decker "down-to-earth destination" featuring a "comfy cool" main bar bracketed by a basement performance space and a "fun", faux-"tropical" roof deck; its especially moving to Brooklynites given its "endearing view" of the "Williamsburg Bridge off-ramp." |
