"Ever heard of The Ship? Probably not. This cocktail bar on Lafayette has stayed relatively under the radar, possibly because it’s located underground, accessed through an almost-hidden door. Fittingly, there’s a boat theme going on, but it’s more “fancy barge” than polo shirt in Nantucket. It’s a big space, great for either a one-on-one drink at the bar or a small group gathering in one of the booths." - katherine lewin, hillary reinsberg
