Located at 213 Second Avenue in Manhattan’s East Village, Jackdaw is a recently-opened cocktail bar in the old Durden space (and Nightingale before Durden). The space is evenly divided between the bar one side with mainly high-top table seating on the other side of the space. The featured house cocktails number around ten and run $14 a piece, which is perhaps a hair cheaper than the going rate for artisanal cocktails for Manhattan in 2019. The beer selection consists of ten mainly quality craft tap beers and another ten or so bottled/canned options. The food menu is limited, think bar bites, flatbreads and cheese/charcuterie. Jackdaw is a great spot for your next Second Avenue East Village NYC bar crawl.
