Great spot for dates or catching up with friends over drinks. It gets pretty busy, so either get there early or make a reservation ahead of time. Great service and good cocktails with an intimate ambience. What more could you ask for? ❤️

I’ve lived in Brooklyn for ages, walked by a million times, and somehow never noticed it. The drinks? Incredible. Strong enough to give you a confidence boost but smooth enough to keep things classy. Perfect for date night or your first Bumble date — long cocktail list, unique flavors, and not as crowded as you’d expect.

We have been meaning to come here for over two years now since they first opened. We always love ourselves as speakeasy cocktail bar. The service was nothing short of amazing. The spirit selection varied a lot. We were actually shot at how many bottles they carried. A lot of them aren’t regularly seen. The bartender was super knowledgeable and friendly. We grabbed two seats at the bar. And the drinks were very pleasant. Would be happy to come back and try out a few more of their cocktails.

Fraunces Tavern is my go to NYC restaurant! It’s downtown near Wall Street and the World Trade Center, and has a ton of historical significance! It’s one of the oldest establishments in the country, and is famous because George Washington gave his farewell speech to his officers there! The food is great, fancy pub fair! All the different rooms with different themes adds a unique flair to the place. Everything from atmosphere to service to food is amazing here! You have to eat lunch or dinner at Fraunces Tavern if you are in Downtown Manhattan!

Enter through Hungry Ghost coffee - next door. Go for solid cocktails in an intimate, booth-lined space with good lighting. Don’t miss the eggplant or pistachio dips.

I'm sad to write this because I love the place and the drinks were amazing, but I did not have a pleasant experience with the manager. His attitude and behavior towards customers need to improve. The way he spoke to me regarding my concerns about the oysters was terrible. Please do better.

The vibe is a vibe. Amazing customer service, drinks are distinctively magical. Super calm and cozy. Intimate setting where you can actually hear yourself think.

Absolutely fantastic experience at Bar Francis! We sat at the bar and Will made sure we were well taken care of! Both the drinks we ordered were awesome and I will be coming back to try the rest soon

I visited Fraunces Tavern for lunch and had an absolutely wonderful experience. The ambience was incredible, full of historical charm, and the staff was attentive and friendly. We ordered the chicken pot and fish and chips, and both dishes were exceptional. The chicken pot was rich and flavorful, a definite highlight of the meal. The fish and chips were perfectly crispy and fresh. Overall, the combination of amazing food, friendly service, and the historic atmosphere makes this place a must-visit. Highly recommend!

Make sure to make a reservation, especially on the holidays! It was very well decorated and super cozy that's why we love it! Aside from it being a historical place.. It feels so warm going inside after walking around downtown Manhattan.. good selection of food and drinks.. and accommodating staff ❤️

I've wanted to dine at Fraunces Tavern for a very long time, and today was finally the day. This place oozes history as it's one of the oldest restaurants in New York City. The establishment is housed in one of the oldest buildings in the city, which was constructed in 1719 well before we were even the United States of America! Frances Tavern also has a museum located on the second floor that you can tour, which I did after lunch and was a lot of fun. In any event, this whole experience is a must visit NYC attraction. Oh, and I loved the duck sandwich!

Really cool spot in the financial district. Been around since 1762 and they have done a fantastic job preserving & fostering that upscale tavern vibe. Tons of seating and 3 distinct bars to choose from, this is a fantastic place to stop, grab a drink, and vibe! Would highly recommend the Presidential Punch, Manhattan, and espresso martini. The fall drinks were okay, but their flagships are outstanding. Food wise, KILLER. Lobster Mac and Cheese is enough to feed 2 for dinner or 3-4 for an appetizer. Fantastic spot, super cool, stop in and enjoy!

A wonderful boîte with tucked-away speakeasy vibes. Date spot for sure. The beverage director is amazing! Their inventive cocktail list is wild. They have a “clarified bloody mary” on tap, are you kidding me? And I really appreciate the non-alcoholic cocktail list too. (And oysters!) Such a find.

Calm and cool setting. Our waiter Gabriel was very nice. The ambiance was perfect; my husband and I truly enjoyed the vibe. I ordered the roasted oysters (which were amazing) and several dirty martinis. We will be back.

Get the warm Hummus with brown butter and toasted pine nuts! It's so good. Can't explain much than that. Also get into an african gin that reasonably priced. Bayab orange and marula . Really good good gin for all gin based cocktails. Been looking for this brand for awhile. Glad they have it here! Also the bartenders here are amazing, know their spirits, and care about their craft. Really friendly too.

One of the charming, new hidden gems of Clinton Hill neighborhood. Cocktails are top notch and love the classic NYC Art Deco atmosphere. Bar snacks were also better than we expected!
