The New NYC Bars You'll Be Loving Long Into 2016

What: Tucked away on the second floor of the Five Guys restaurant in the West Village is The Garret, a cocktail bar that mixes the speakeasy looks with the energy of a late night hot spot. Their newest branch, The Garret East, does away with the furtive charm of the original, opting for a ground level bar in one of the best drinking neighborhoods in the city. The Garret's unmistakable appeal is still present: cozy seating, artwork and knick knacks spread throughout, and of course, that energy that keeps the place alive deep into the night.
