    Great little spot! A go-to for a casual hang but can also be a perfect start to a night out. They have a well curated selection of craft beers and wines - plus some liquor selection. John helped us pick out our beers and they were all excellent so have to give him a shout!Would be a cute little before or after drink for a date too.

    Great time there Sunday night with Lee! Shes friendly, quick and attentive; she definitely had everything running smooth and chill. A hidden gem in the West Village. Heard about here through a friend of mine and all I can say I was not misinformed at all. Thanks again Lee A.

    Very vibey place, with the side benches and low chairs in the back room; really an intimate spot and perfect for date night. Found the staff to be very friendly. Its more of a chill place than upscale, which can be a nice change of pace. Only knock is that the cocktails are kind of one-note; tasty but nothing special about them, so if youre going for that wow drinking experience, this isnt it. But if you want each others company to be the star, this is a great choice.

    The Otheroom is a vibe. I was brought here on a first date (that failed) but I continue to visit because the atmosphere and service are so good. The chairs could use a revamp, but that’s only if you sit at the bar. There’s a huge couch in the back that can sit like 4 couples and candle lit and dark you can easily sneak a kiss. The otheroom is worth the journey that far west, trust me.

    Everything I expected. Its a famous jazz supper club. Okay drinks. Food better than expected. Little tables, packed-to-the-gills with 8 people! The music volume is not too loud. Best jazz performers in the world aspire to this place.Tip: if its a hot performance, do all you can to get priority seating. We did it with an Amex card reservation and booking farrrrrrrr in advance. Otherwise: plan on being packed like sardines and standing at the bar. Suckers.

    Good vibe. Decent cocktails and beers. The server was friendly. Come early to get a seat. This place is packed by 6:30 pm

  • Review 7 (2022-06-20 - Rating: 5)

    Best place in the city for drinks! Dimly lit and super romantic. Ask the best bartender Dario to make you the great skinny margarita you’ll ever have!

  • Review 8 (2022-04-02 - Rating: 4)

    Nice place, a little off the beaten path so not so crowded. Nice variety of cocktails, drinks and wine. Comfortable low light ambiance

  • Review 9 (2023-02-23 - Rating: 5)

    Really delicious drinks, amazing atmosphere and staff was super friendly. Would recommend for anyone/ groups looking for a casual night out with a cozy atmosphere.

  • Review 10 (2022-11-14 - Rating: 4)

    Cool small bar, not busy on sundays. Bar tender is super nice. No food here but you can order if you want.

  • Review 11 (2023-08-08 - Rating: 5)

    Ive been to a lot of bars, and this one has one of the best energies Ive seen. Also amazing cocktails!

  • Review 12 (2023-10-09 - Rating: 5)

    Not a huge selection of drinks, but amazing music (kind of indie, old school) and vibe

  • Review 13 (2017-07-18 - Rating: 5)

    Dark and intimate. Definitely a date night hot spot. Beer and wine only, great selections. Music can get loud at times.

  • Review 14 (2012-06-05 - Rating: 4)

    One of our favorite bars for a low-key drink or a romantic rendezvous with a hefty wine selection and an extensive list of beers!

  • Review 15 (2022-10-06 - Rating: 5)

    Solid spot, always the right amount of people 🫣

  • Review 16 (2020-05-11 - Rating: 5)

    Great atmosphere for a chill night out or small gathering with friends. Even better cocktails!

  • Review 17 (2021-10-06 - Rating: 5)

    Cute local beer/wine bar, love that it’s a more small intimate experience!

  • Review 18 (2023-10-24 - Rating: 4)

    Very date-y vibe. The drinks were stiff and I loved them! The place was fairly dim-lit and was perfect. If you sit in the backroom, you might have a lot of people going in and out of the restroom.The restrooms are candle-lit only (no other source of light).There is no food here.

  • Review 19 (2017-04-15 - Rating: 4)

    This is a cozy spot for a glass of wine. Great for dates, but not the first one, since its a little too romantic for meeting strangers.

  • Review 20 (2022-05-27 - Rating: 4)

    Small, dark & cosy cocktail bar with a chilled music vibe & attentive service.

  • Review 21 (2017-01-30 - Rating: 5)

    Nice low-key wine/beer lounge worth stopping by if in the area.

  • Review 30 (2021-07-20 - Rating: 5)

    Such a cute date spot complete with mood lighting! They’ve truly mastered an atmosphere here. The bartenders were also so, so cool and nice. One of them looks like Jim from the office if you want something close to a celebrity sighting. Overall great experience thank you!

  • Review 33 (2020-02-23 - Rating: 5)

    Ive been here three times, and two out of the three it was because every other bar in this area was packed. Dont get me wrong: this isnt a last resort type of place. Far from it -- literally, its kind of far to get to from the main thoroughfare of the West Village.It might look like its packed on the outside (especially on a Thursday/Friday/Saturday evening), but usually you can find seats inside. The place has an interesting set up. Theres a sleek leather booth running along one entire wall with three tables. These are probably the prime seats in the house, so to speak. The space is bigger than it looks on the outside, but you can tell theyre not trying to maximize real estate to cram more people in. They are really all about creating that intimate vibe. Great date place.Drinks are on the pricey side. Cocktails run from $15-18 last time I checked, but they are a better deal, in my opinion, than wine. For a couple of bucks more you get a delicious concoction that is STRONG. Have gotten the Negroni and the Old-Fashioned. Both are excellent. You can nurse one drink all night and feel very good walking out.

    Met the 2 loves of my life here. My man and his dog.

  • Review 35 (2022-02-20 - Rating: 4)

    Intimate, low lit, casual and reasonably priced West Village bar, with a counter area and a few nooks in the back. Cocktails, beer and wine options are listed on a blackboard and kind service. Seems perfect for dates!

  • Review 36 (2021-11-01 - Rating: 4)

    Nice, comfy and rather sexy spot. Sort of romantic too & not loud. Yet the music is horrible. The bartender struggles a bit with keeping up with orders. No pics needed.

  • Review 37 (2017-03-16 - Rating: 5)

    Great local place to relax with friends. Not a wild and crazy bar. Only serves wine and beer. Low lighted, candle lit atmosphere. Staff is friendly. Lost my debit card and emailed them; they communicated super efficiently and gave me piece of mind that my card was safe with them. Didnt overcharge my card for leaving it there. Recommended stop on your places to see in West Village!

  • Review 38 (2022-06-09 - Rating: 5)

    Great, secluded, small bar. Perfect for a date or one-on-one conversations

  • Review 39 (2020-03-17 - Rating: 5)

    One of my absolute favorite beer and wine spots in lower Manhattan! Staff is kind and tentative.Great environment. A few more available seats would be helpful, but all in all a great bar!

  • Review 40 (2022-04-03 - Rating: 5)

    Intimate, not super expensive, good music and great bartenders. It was really crowded on a Friday night though.

  • Review 41 (2017-11-06 - Rating: 5)

    Great local neighborhood bar - now with cocktails! Ive been coming here for years and have always loved the beer and wine selection and cozy atmosphere. The bartenders are friendly, and now theyve got a full liquor license and cocktails!

    Nice date place. Great music.

  • Review 43 (2013-07-25 - Rating: 4)

    Great bar. A dark room, but has a very distinct aura and feel to the place. Loved it here. I enjoyed my time, some of the people were a little loud and nuts but the bar was great.

    Cozy. Classy. Tiny. Beerish.

    Nice beer and wine selection, great ambiance. Chill, but pleasantly active on a Tuesday night. Great music, could listen all night.

  • Review 47 (2017-12-04 - Rating: 5)

    My go to bar in the West Village. Perfect ambience and extensive wine list. They just added a cocktail menu - their Manhattan is my favorite.

  • Review 48 (2016-02-06 - Rating: 4)

    About as divey as a bar will get in Manhattan in the 21st century. Great beer list. Low key vibes. Very dark room. Good music. Can get pretty packed on the weekends.

  • Review 49 (2016-01-24 - Rating: 5)

    Love this local spot. Amazing beer selections, cozy inside. Knowledgeable bartenders

    Very cozy, intimate interior with friendly bar staff (Marc and Vinny)

  • Review 58 (2019-02-12 - Rating: 4)

    Nice cozy dark place for drinks! Came on a Saturday night, music was playing pretty loud and it was hard to hear sometimes, but it was definitely a lovely atmosphere. I recommend coming on the earlier side to guarantee seats, otherwise you might be left standing on a Friday or Saturday night. And if youre ever in Venice, seems like this place has a location there as well.

  • Review 59 (2011-04-29 - Rating: 4)

    Spent a great night here with Boris, fresh from a divorce filing, and Ryan, mid-marital skirmish but lucky to live a block away. Convenient, right? Perfectly moody lighting, great wine, and just the right vibe for airing grievances. Who needs therapy when you have The Otheroom?
