"It’s hard to console your friends after they’ve spent the summer hopping from the Governor’s Ball and Lollapalooza to Adele in Munich. Now they can only listen to live versions of songs and mention setlists nonstop. Take them to a place where they’re bound to see a few drum sets, keyboards, and guitars—Midtown Village’s Time. It’s an exciting American spot that has live music almost every day of the week, plus pasta, sandwiches, and shareable mains like braised short ribs. When it’s nice out, they open the side doors and windows, so it can be your friend’s first open-air music experience of the summer without the long lines at concessions or the bathroom." - candis mclean
