"Ironically named after Raines Law, the infamous bill that attempted to curb alcohol consumption in the late 19th century—and also permitted its Sunday distribution solely to hotel premises—Raines Law Room offers a gorgeous, library-inspired space for cocktails and strong pours in East Midtown. Designed to resemble a classic Victorian home, the bar’s numerous rooms are equipped with book-adorned walls, couches, and cozy fireplaces perfect for warming up with a cocktail (or dram) on a chilly New York evening. Raines’ bar menu is divided into a few sections: old school classics, seasonal offerings, staff favorites, and reserve batches. There's also an ample zero-proof selection, and a small plates menu including lobster rolls and macarons." - CNT Editors
