The 22 Best Bars In The East Village
"HiLot is from the team behind Joyface (another bar on this list). There’s no standing room here, and the space looks like a fancy home from the 1970s, with plaid carpets, fringed lamps, and a mirrored ceiling. It’s essentially a speakeasy that isn’t hidden, and it’s a great option for when you want to go out but don’t necessarily need to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with strangers who might spill their cocktails on you." - bryan kim, kenny yang, neha talreja, will hartman, sonal shah
