Below Stone Nest

Step into an atmosphere of moody charm within an underground bar hidden away in a church undergoing restoration. This intriguing venue captures a distinct New York City vibe, all set amidst the bustling heart of the city. Featuring live performances such as captivating theatre productions, this creative space doubles as an ideal spot for sipping top-notch cocktails. Bartenders like the ever-exuberant Scarlett and Honor serve drinks that range from exquisite whiskey sours to the rare taste of Fernet Branca, which pairs beautifully with the bar’s eclectic cocktail menu. While queues can be long, and IDs are mandatory for entry, the lively music and sizeable drinks make it worth the wait. However, it is advised to arrive early due to limited seating and to avoid the occasional service hiccup. With live acoustic sessions on Wednesdays, this edgy, rustic locale with speakeasy allure remains a distinctive destination perfect for the curious and culturally inclined.
