Art Bar
If you’re looking to take your alternative lifestyle to the next level, then dive into this Meatpacking dive bar. Art Bar has a distinct happy hour vibe, with bumping '80s tunes and half-priced beer and wine. Throw on that velvet choker you bought to wear once, embrace your inner "out-there" and push through the crowded front room to the draped back room where the mismatched furniture actually feels purposeful.
Art Bar, 52 8th Ave.
