The Garret
The Garret is a speakeasy in the sense that it’s hard to locate. To get there, you walk into the Five Guys at 7th and Bleecker, then find a hidden staircase in the back. Upstairs, there’s a casual cocktail bar with a few skylights and some windows looking out on the street. It isn’t as stuffy or expensive as some other cocktail bars, but it does get busy, and they play top-40 just a little too loud. Adding to this speakeasy’s mysterious nature, the inside of the bathroom door features an art installation of doorknobs; make sure you choose the right one when exiting.
Guests are encouraged to grab a burger and fries on their way up to the cool and quirky speakeasy-esque lounge. After spending an evening at the cozy, it's a great place for a date, a place to kill time before a nearby dinner reservation, or even for a business meeting.
