22 Places To Grab A Drink Where You Can Also Get Good Food

"Bar Contra on the Lower East Side comes from the team behind Wildair—your first sign that the food here is going to be good. Bring a date, and order liberally off the tiny menu—we like the celeriac crumpet with seaweed butter, the sausage-stuffed chicken wing, and the sexy little red prawns from Montauk. Plus a cocktail, of course, like the Saltair. It comes with a Modelito sidecar, and tastes like the delicious salty-sweet dregs of a margarita." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah
