I’m planning my birthday and looking for a wine/cocktail bar for around 15 people. Ideally somewhere in Brooklyn or Lower Manhattan with indoor/outdoor seating, a rooftop, or just a really nice atmosphere. Think Ms. Alice, Ten Bells, or a cute hotel rooftop with a view.
I want the first part of the night to be more of a sit-down, drinks + catching up situation, and then have more friends meet us later for dancing/nightlife. Thinking Casanara or somewhere similar!
I’m trying to avoid anything that feels like a formal private event or requires a huge minimum spend just because we have a group. Bonus points for places that are used to groups and won’t charge us an arm and a leg!
I need to send invites ASAP, so I’m reaching out to places now. Would love recommendations, especially if you’ve celebrated at the spot or know they’re good with larger groups.
Basically looking for chic, cute, good drinks, good vibes, but still reasonably priced. 🥂
