The Hamilton

Cocktail bar · Upper West Side

@infatuation

"Like Caledonia, The Hamilton has a very serious whiskey selection, though the focus here is more on American whiskey. Which makes sense, seeing as the space is decorated like an 18th-century tavern, complete with a portrait of Alexander Hamilton. That said, it isn’t a gimmicky spot where you pretend to be an early American settler. Mostly, it’s just a nice little bar with brick walls and a short menu of snacks, and it’s a good spot for a date or a low-key cocktail after work." - will hartman, bryan kim, neha talreja, matt tervooren
