More a club than a bar, this place attracts a younger set looking to shake it up on the dance floor. The ample sofas are a nice place to catch your breath between boogies. Great place for a group night out, the setting is fun, yet intimate.

Located in the same architectural landmark as the Four Seasons, designed by cutting-edge architects Diller & Scofidio, this fabulous French bistro is the perfect spot for a late-night crocque monsieur. The mixed drinks and desserts are always a crowd pleaser.

You'll feel like a member of a secret club as you lead your friends through a nondescript office building into this little piece of Sake Heaven. Over 200 varieties are available along with some excellent sashimi if you're in the mood.

A great, traditional Irish pub. A little loud when the after-work crowd filters in, but the Guinness is grand and the Shepherd's pie warm and filling. A rustic country atmosphere adds to the charm. And there's even live music on occasion. Some of the best Irish eats in all of Midtown.

A step up from the hustle and bustle of Grand Central, this magnificent drawing room/bar takes you back to the days when Robber Barons ruled the market. Not a place to go in jeans or high-tops, for top-shelf drinks before the last express out of Grand Central, this is definitely the place to be.

One of New York's Grand Dames of luxury. This century-old landmark was long associated with Colonel J. Astor. Being an Astor he knew that only the best would do. To this day the marble, gilt and crystal appointments are impeccably maintained. The service is exceptional. Not to mention, The King Cole bar is one of the city's most treasured drinking haunts. This is one of Manhattan's finest hotels.

Tasty tapas and terrific margaritas continue to make this place a draw. The atmosphere is some hybrid of dungeon and Spanish Villa. Either way, it's the ideal setting for a good ol' time, but tends to be crowded when the working day is done.
