Reviews
We went there to try a speakeasy bar! The guy who opened the door wasn’t very smiley - not sure if that’s the vibe they are trying to create!
Overall had a bit of vibe of a speakeasy but didn’t seem like a proper one - not much secretive or discreet ! The staff serving the drinks were friendly ! Cocktail that I tried was ok
Definitely from a location point of view seemed like a popular place!
Wonderful speakeasy near Washington Square Park. Go down a flight of stairs and take a break from the noisy NYC streets. Lots of excellent cocktail choices for around $20 and they are very tasty. Perfect place to catch up with a friend or go on a date. A good change to your evening plans. Service is great (as speakeasy bars should be expected to have) and the atmosphere is just perfect.
The engraved ice is very cool too.
This place has couple of the best cocktails I’ve evet had!! We got lucky to get in there without a reservation. They had incredible variety of unique cocktails. 10000% recommend but make a reservation.
Come have a great cocktail before hitting The Blue Note or other places for a night out or a night cap. Cocktails are A+ and the staff is incredible and great recommendations.
The Up & Up always delivers a stellar cocktail experience. The menu is truly creative and the team is more than happy to make something off menu based on preferences. The atmosphere gives speakeasy vibes with the dark ambience and cozy booths. 10/10 recommend!
After two drinks each at the bar, with the absolutely amazing Ismael mixing magical concoctions, me and my friend agreed: this is the BEST bar in town- must be why the term “bar none” exists. Do get the “Hold, Please”: Banhez Mezcal, Crème de Cassis, Watermelon Shrub, Lemon, Juice, and Grapefruit Juice AND the “As Much as a Duck”: Banhez Mezcal, Famous Grouse Smoky Black Scotch. Stresa, Amaro Stumato, Lemon & Lime Juice, Cayenne and Egg White. The complexity of flavors in each drink is worth the price of admission: one is tangy, smoky and sweet, in that order; the other is creamy, sumptuous and a touch spicy. This is an experience worth paying for- wish this was closer to my home, but I would be there once a week at least. Insanely delicious.
Kayla the mixologist is amazing. The cocktails were superb. The best I have ever had and I've traveled extensively and explored all over NYC. Also, I finally had ice that had an emblem on it. The cocktail I had on the rocks is a Happy Trails with Jananese Whiskey , Yuzu, pineapple and fennel among other things. My friend got the Meres Of Twilight which has gin, peach, honey, mild jalapeño, cucumber and lemon juice. Delicious! We were treated like Queens. The 20$ price tag for the cocktails is well worth this one of a kind experience.
A great bar with super friendly staff and great vibe!
There is a wide range of cocktails here with various spirits.
I would recommend the hammer factor the most for old fashioned lovers.
It is made out of rye instead of bourbon, but the rye fragrance is strong with the spices in the drink.
The Disco Volante is also a good drink with clarifies milk, which makes the touching creamy.
The drink is good overall, but the orange fragrance is slightly too much for me, but the drink is still pretty good and might be acceptable for others!
A recommended bar here near Washington Square Park!
