Thanks to Dave Power for this weeks Bar suggestion!
Coffee Shop: Upright Brew House
Atmosehere: Feels homey and East Coast but new. Dark wood, jewel tones, high end couch-booths and lovely exposed brick.
Offerings: Bathroom, seating, bar food, wine and beer (this is a brewery at night), coffee, wifi.
Perks: Charming, friendly staff, sit and stay. Low key drinks for nighttime.
Downsides: Closes at 11. Expensive.
Favorite: Decor. Super cute- feels distinctly like you're in New York at a nice place, without being pretentious.
Pricing (Penny Saver, Average Joe, New York City Slicker, Indulger, Money Flinger): New York City Slicker- you're looking at upwards of $3 for a cup of coffee.
Bar: Kumas (Koodo Sushi)
Atmosehere: Underground, divy meets financial district.
Offerings: Bathroom, seating, food, full bar, goldfish and peanut snacks.
Perks: Kuma (the bartender) allows you to play your own music, always lively, free goldfish, incredibly boozy and inexpensive drinks, greasy food, Kuma!
Downsides: Can be really hot, not open on weekends, greasy food.
Favorite: The obscene amounts of alcohol in a my tie (yes, my tie).
Pricing (Penny Saver, Average Joe, New York City Slicker, Indulger, Money Flinger): Penny Saver- you'll get a drink that is at least half booze when you order, and pay about $5-$6 for it.
Atmosehere: Mexican (American Mexican) Decor. Lots of tile and colorful paintings. Not shabby, not over the top.
Offerings: Bathroom, food, full bar, fresh made guacamole, free chips.
Perks: Friendly staff, full menu, large space (no wait), great for parties, fantastic margaritas with lots of flavors (guava to mango to strawberry), reasonably priced pitchers.
Downsides: Can get loud.
Favorite: The margaritas- the perfect blend of tequila, tart citrus, and fruit. Not too sweet and they use fresh fruit.
Pricing (Penny Saver, Average Joe, New York City Slicker, Indulger, Money Flinger): New York City Slicker- these prices are average. You're looking at $15-$25 entrees.
