New York's best bar to pick up a cop. Just across the street from police HQ and well behind the security barrier. You'd need to head to the ocean to find more blue.

Thanks to $2 well drinks for women all night every night the stripper pull at this "upscale lounge" gets plenty of use.

110 Chambers St. · 0.3 mi
Closed; now Alto
At the last of the Tribeca dive bars a pitcher of PBR can be had for just $6. Which is good because you'll need to pound a half dozen or so to match the general level of sobriety.

Asian/hipster karaoke joint is a people watcher's dream.

-
57 Murray St. · 0.3 mi
Closed; now Monk McGinn's
The kind of bar that lives or dies on the charisma and/or tits of its bartending staff. And it's very much alive and well.

Great place to see a show. And an all ages policy means this is the bar to take your underage niece/nephew to give them a taste of New York.

A bar that measures it's worth in flat screen TVs seems unlikely for this well off the beaten track location, but, well, here it is.

Downtown topless bar.

9 Doyer St. · 0.3 mi

28 Cliff St. · 0.3 mi

Well worth the hike from Wall Street this Irish pub is a strong choice for after work drinks. The kitchen is head and shoulders above pub par and the crowd is a nice mix of two disparate groups, those who work downtown and those who live there.

Liquid Assets (Millenium Hilton)
55 Church St. · 0.3 mi
A different business is licensed at this address: Millenium Downtown New York
A big, popular hotel bar has all the atmosphere of the WTC pit across the street, but its location is commuter heaven.
-
100 Lafayette St. · 0.3 mi
Closed; now Soho Live
A minimalist dance and DJ focused club stays open til 4am 7 nights a week. It's crazy corny fun for a crowd way too busy bouncin' to bother with bottle service.
-
Kimono LoungePick
62 Thomas St. · 0.3 mi
Closed; now 62 Thomas St event venue
Just above the ulta-expensive restaurant Megu this lounge is every bit as oppulent, but at a mere $12 a cocktail the financial barriers to entry are considerably lower.

Closed; now Prevz
This drinking den from the founding bartenders of Angel's Share maintains the same dedication to the craft of cocktails without the rules barring parties of more than four.

How is it that the restaurant featured in "Bright Lights Big City" managed to sell any food at all in the 80s when it’s a list crowd was ruining its appetite racking up lines in the bathroom? Ah yes, the bar. The Bar.

At Jeremey's there are 21 beers on tap, but from 8am to 10am Coors is the only one anyone's drinking. The morning special, a 32oz styrofoam cup of Coors brings in a crowd of fishmongers and a few stockbrokers looking to kick start the day. If you opt to avoid the morning crowds and have dinner the kitchen serves some unsurprisingly exceptional seafood.

A different business is licensed at this address: Casa Carmen

Briefly a celebrity haunt, but never exactly chic, the Church Lounge now feels exactly like what it is -- a lounge in a hotel lobby.

A different business is licensed at this address: Maman
Half wine bar, half wine shop, and somehow manages to succeed at both.
