"If you’re on the Upper East Side and you’re looking for a place where you can hang out with a group and possibly meet a future ex or two, Jack & Fanny’s is your best option. Sure, The Penrose is just across the street, but this place feels slightly less like a meet-and-greet at Kappa Kappa Gamma. It also has a few couches and a bocce court, and if you don’t look outside the front windows, you can pretend you’re about 90 blocks south on the Lower East Side." - bryan kim
