Bathtub GinThe decor was wonderful..However,The decor was wonderful..However, I found the simply appetizers to be too expensive and not worth it.5/25/2013 12:00:00 AMReally fun!Bathtub Gin is a speakeasy near the Joyce Theatre, hidden behind a coffeeshop. It is deliciously over the top, and exudes good humor and excess. Loved the Gin Gin mule. A bit loud for our party of six, since we were seated on couches a bit far apart for easy conversation, but the banquettes make for great tete a tete's or assignations. The most fun we've had at a bar in a while. Plus the small plates were tasty.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat find in CheslseaPerfect place to go for a few drinks on a week night. Its a speak easy so you go through a tiny coffee shop front and end up in another world. The staff are amazing, beyond helpful, definitely listen to their recommendations. They make sure everyone is seen to for such a personal experience. Food and drinks are grogeous. Go, its such a place.5/8/2013 12:00:00 AMMy wife and I had reservationsMy wife and I had reservations to take our visiting parents here for a few drinks. We had been here previously much later at night (no reservations) but it was so busy and noisy that we decided not to stay since that wasn't what we were looking for on that occasion.
Prices were not really any higher than you find elsewhere in Manhattan, and here I didn't mind paying them for the tasty wonders of mixology that we were served. "El Diablo" was my favorite drink of the evening, but the Storm Chaser was also good. There is also a great selection of liquors to enjoy by themselves or on ice. I don't drink a lot of different kinds of rum but I will say that my dad ordered the smoothest rum I have ever tasted (Starr African Rum). We will be back!5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMWhy no joe?Food was great, service left something to be desired. Waitress was lot less attentive than our previous visits, though her bussing staff were all on point. And c'mon, you're affiliated with a coffee bar but can't even put a pot of coffee or an espresso together for dinner guests? Turning the coffee bar in to a coat check seems like a cop out.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMI came here with 7 of my girlfriendI came here with 7 of my girlfriends and we had a blast. Both the drinks and food were awesome especially for small plate sharing. I will definitely be back - reservations recommended.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMPerfect spot for dinner and a showOverall a fantastic evening. Go on a Sunday or Tuesday night for the show. Small plates for dinner were all great, and reasonably priced. Wine/beer list is concise, but leaves something to be desired. Specialty cocktails were all great & well thought out. The theme of the entire place was well executed, & a great place to enjoy some cocktails and a night out with friends. Service was pleasant & quick, & great suggestions were made. A great adults only venue, can't wait to catch the next show.3/17/2013 12:00:00 AMAttentive, knowlegeable andAttentive, knowlegeable and helpful staff. Great drinks. Kobe sliders very good. Get there early - fills up fast.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AM
