When you find yourself in need of a drink near (or because of Times Square), head to Wine Escape. It’s a small, narrow wine bar in Hell’s Kitchen where you can sit at the bar and try to forget about that brawl between Elmo and The Tin Man.
The Polynesian is a tiki-themed rooftop cocktail bar in Midtown from the people behind Carbone and The Grill.
Ruffian is a tiny East Village bar with a huge natural wine list and a short menu of really good Mediterranean food.
The Ten Bells is a natural wine bar on the Lower East Side that serves some good small plates and $1 Happy Hour oysters every day.
