The Buttery Bar

The Best Restaurants For A Low-Key Date Night In NYC

"This Greenpoint spot feels like a cool library, except you’re allowed to eat, drink, and talk as loud as you want. If you and your date are into goblins, gargoyles, and/or dark academia vibes, you’ll really like The Buttery Bar. If you like not-boring seasonal food and unusual wine and beer lists, you’ll positively love it. Come here for funky pet-nats, elevated salads substantial enough to be meals unto themselves, and some of the best desserts this side of the East River. The booth seating is perfect for a romantic tête-à-tête. " - carina finn koeppicus
