Milano's
Name: Milano's Bar
Where: 51 East Houston Street between Mott & Mulberry Street
Milano's is a dive bar favorite with East village locals, the lighting ensures you can barely see your drink but with a house special of beer and a shot for $6, that soon becomes irrelevant. The bar staff want to know your life story, anything from your love life to your issues with your electric company, and the clientele are friendly -however, if you want to get a real feel for the place, head up there after 10pm.
