"It sounds like a simple task but it can be hard to find an Upper East Side bar that has substantial food, good ambiance, and doesn’t feel like a frat house. If you live in the area or are looking for a spot after going to the Museum of the City of New York or a loop around Central Park, check out the ultra-cozy Earl’s Beer and Cheese. As the name suggests, there are plenty of brews on tap, and without a doubt the neighborhood’s best grilled cheese." - Emma Orlow
