East Village NYC Cocktail crawl?
We came across a story on supercall.com concerning a cocktail bar crawl in NYC. Working from west to east, their route of the recommended NYC cocktail bar crawl targets nine spots in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village, East Village and Alphabet City. Over the course of numerous years of NYC pub crawling, we’ve visited all nine spots on this route at least once. We think the route and the bars that Supercall picked are solid, but, due to opening/closing times of each spot, it’s rather unlikely that you can reach all nine spots in one day. Supercall acknowledges such and suggests skipping a spot or two. We look forward to reviewing Supercall’s next suggested NYC bar crawl route.
Happy Hanukkah 2017!
Pub Crawl NYC wishes you the best on this first day of Hanukkah.

December 5 marks the 84th anniversary of the end of Prohibition in the United States
December 5, 2017 marks the 84th anniversary of the end of U.S. Prohibition. On this date in 1933, Utah became the 36th U.S. state to ratify the 21st Amendment to the United States Constitution (achieving the required 75% of states to approve the amendment). This ratification overturned the 18th Amendment, which outlawed alcohol in the United States. So, how will you be marking the anniversary today, with a pub crawl in NYC perhaps? Leave us a comment below to let us know!
December 3 marks the 199th anniversary of Illinois statehood

Bars we look forward to visiting in Lower Manhattan
There are always numerous NYC bars on our to-visit list. Two spots in Lower Manhattan we hope to experience sooner rather than later are Vin Sur Vingt and The Fernbar. Vin Sur Vingt, located at 66 West Broadway, has opened its third location in the southern edge of Tribeca (in addition to its West Village and Upper West Side locations). If this third location is anything like the first two, we expect a solid, French-focused selection of wines. Over in the East Village, Fernbar, located at 166 First Avenue (near 10th Street) appears to be a new neighborhood spot. We wish we knew more about Fernbar. If you have any thoughts on Fernbar, please share them in the comment space below. Once we’ve had a chance to visit these two spots, we will post brief reviews of both in this space.
