Cozy candle lit hookah bar with belly dancers and DJs. |

Candle light, dark wood and crimson walls set the tone for this sexy spacious lounge. And with nightly live music, a consistent kitchen, and a full menu it's no surprise that Prohibition is one of the most popular lounges on the UWS. |

Bypass the uneven experimental cuisine of the top floor and head instead to the handsome basement bar where the experimental twists on classic cocktails make you feel like $12-$15 cocktails are a bargain. |

Below the generic Irish pub One and One is this generic, but popular dance space. |

Behind its incospicous Smith Street façade lies a former Italian social club turned hip bar. Sticking close to its roots it retains a feel of old world decadence. |

Behind a smoked glass door just past Merkato 55 (you'll spot it by the bouncer standing outside). Head down the stairs, through the kitchen, and into into the door marked private. If all that makes you feel important than you're not alone. Take a look around. Pretense is the name of the game here. |

Aside from hosting an incredibly eclectic array of acts in its back room dinner theatre, The Cutting Room with it faux Louie the 14th furniture, tall ceilings and warm lighting, is also one of the best places to catch a drink in the Flatiron District. |

An odd crowd of tourists, Manhattan trend chasers, and a handful of neighborhood locals fill this tiny carriage house beyond capacity. Lured here by indiscriminate promotion and viewed with thinly veiled disdain by the management, they pony up $14 for a cocktail, and ooh and ahh over the emperor’s new wardrobe. |

An oasis among the cookie cutter bars of the UES, The Auction House is warm, cozy and laid-back. It makes a great place to take a date, or just have a relaxed pint without annoyance of TVs and frat boys exchanging high-fives after every round of shots. |
