What a really cool and unique spot. I don't think they serve food here and we visited purely for "beverages" and had a delightful experience. Our bartender who felt more like a friend was Steven. I'm a bourbon fan and after requesting an Old Fashion I realized Steven had much more to offer me so I turned it over to his hands and he made me a "Base Camp", a "Sherpa" and then finally a *Closing Argument" all of which each one was better than the previous. We were initially greeted and seated by a young man named Roy who stopped by our table from time to.time. I'm telling you that I would go way out of the way again to revisit this place based on this one experience. It's an amazingly small and narrow space with (see photo) even more narrow and tight restrooms. All adding to the overall experience. I loved it and WILL try to return.

The bar's interior is intimate, seating approximately 28 guests, and features exposed brick walls and minimalist décor . The ambiance is complemented by attentive, skilled bartenders who ensure a memorable experience.

Great cocktails bar. First found it a bit dark, but then adjusted to the light and music and it was just right. We were a party of three and had three rounds of cocktails. No menu, you just tell the bartender what you want and he does his magic. Never been at a place where the drinks match so well what you describe. I went from whiskey (Old Fashion style), to Gin (fruity, refreshing) to Mezcal. All three drinks were perfectly balanced. Focus is not on looks, but flavor.

Absolutely fantastic, they don’t have a menu so you just describe what you want. I’m modify some of my favourite cocktails by adding my favourite ingredients and deleting something that I don’t like , so it’s come out to be the perfect “my cocktail”.

Such a terrific “if you know, you know” drinks spot in NYC. I’ve been to this type of bar before, where you give the bartender a starting point and they mix something from there, but all the cocktails we had there were so well-crafted with complex layers of flavor- it blew all my other previous experiences out of the water. The service was so friendly, too. Definitely will recommend in the future, but only to friends I know will appreciate it… a visit to Attaboy is too good to waste!
