The live music at this Brazilian samba joint fills the place with more than enough latin heat to overcome the nondescript décor.

Love is the answer to people who say the NYC club scene is dead. This is London style clubbing where the music first and everything else is a distant second. Some of the best DJ talent in the city visits out of respect for that simple principle.

North Square (Washington Sq Hotel)
103 Waverly Pl. · 0.1 mi

The appeal of this basement level hotel bar is its anonymity. You could live in the neighborhood for years and never know it was there.

The former Caffe Dell'Artiste still serves coffee in the AM and retains much of the old furnishings, but there's now a few video games in the back, 6 beers on tap, and a full bar. The real draw though is the view onto Greenwich Avenue from the second floor windows. Come Halloween those seats will be worth their weight in gold.

Closed; now Burgers & Beer
Tiny tapas restaurant and wine bar serves sangria three ways: red pear, white peach, and sparkling strawberry. They also will serve wine in the Catalon tradition of a porron - a spiggoted vessel that when used properly opens up the wine as it flows, but in unskilled hands can warrant a trip to the dry cleaners.

-
162 W. 4th St. · 0.2 mi
Closed; now Poke Rice
A bi-level drinkers bar that's almost always nearly empty upstairs, but the dimly lit downstairs pseudo-club packs on weekends. Oddly, thanks in large part to friendly/bored bar tenders, not at all a bad place for a drink.

Cafe bar with a patio and an enclosed glass space for sunny summer days and two fireplaces for the winter.

This small, dark, but no longer smokey jazz joint books some truly incredible up and coming talent. Best yet the reasonable cover charges buys your first two drinks.
-
130 W. 3rd St. · 0.2 mi
Still pouring
A comfortable low key bar on an off night metamorphoses into the 10th circle of B&T hell as the weekend approaches, but where else can you find Judas, Brutus, and Cassius all out for a few pints and a bit of skirt.

Closed; now 3 Sheets Saloon
Calling a bar a frat bar implies at least a partial college education. Failing such ready nomenclature this is a Drink too much, puke in the toilet, tip the bathroom attendant the change in your pocket, go back to the bar, sweat profusely, wait forever for a drink, get in a screaming match with your girlfriend and call her a slut, then cry on her shoulder on the cab ride back to Penn Station kind of place. It's also great for parties and fund-raisers.

All that public relations money quickly put 49 Grove on the A-list map, but inconsistent service and a reasonably benign scene will quickly take it off.
