TJ Lynch former chef turned bartender opened this little joint in 2011, and it's still going strong and one of the places to be drinking when you hit up New York. Notice the gold barbershop-esque sign in the window and be drawn in by the warm glow - delights await you. Find yourself a spot and let the bartenders work their magic. The small cocktail list, written on the wall in old theatre lettering is dictated by what stock they have in abundance, clever cats. If that’s not good enough for you one of the hot bartenders will make you one with the poison of your choice, and it’ll be banging.

Get a snack attack in the early hours? Fear not, the Mother's Ruin menu runs from 5pm-4am every night. Cholula honey chicken wings and Beer Cheese Nachos at two in the morning? You can guess where you'll be finding us. And if you wake up feeling the effects of those cocktails last night, just head back for brunch. It's served every day, and the Mother’s breakfast burrito & a Bloody Mary is all the hangover-fixer you need.
