LB might be one of the best speakeasy’s in the city. It’s the last thing you’d expect when looking at the entrance, but you are blown away once you walk down to the basement. It’s super cozy and intimate. Perfect for a date or a few cocktails with friends. My girlfriend and I took her parents here when they were in town and they loved it. There’s live music during the week and a lot more space than I expected. The cocktails were incredible!

We were able to walk in a few minutes after 6pm on a Friday, and were surprised to find the place empty (perhaps since it was a beautiful evening, and sitting underground in the dark wasn't as appealing at that hour). We were given a booth adjacent to the bar, and selected from a menu of both cocktail classics and unique house twists on several common drinks. We enjoyed both the Bee's Knees and Sea Way No. 2. The front area of the was set up for a jazz band later that night, which would be fun to go back and experience. Overall, a cool speakeasy setting with good drinks and ambiance.

We stumbled across this bar walking back to our hotel. We heard some music and saw a curtain downstairs, then decided to head down. The drinks were delicious and we loved the romantic, quaint, private vibe. Would recommend!

Read a decade old reddit AMA by the owner of this place and found it when I visited Manhattan. Amazing place. Love the speakeasy. Drinks are fantastic and delicious. Music is not too loud. The space gets a bit loud as people get drunk but then the more alcohol drowns it all out. Kudos to this place.
