"The Spaniard in the West Village is consistently busy with groups of friends or coworkers drinking after work. There are a bunch of big booths that can smush up to ten people in. But, if those are full, you can also stand and hang out around the bar. The patty melt and burger here are both pretty good, so order a few things to share and do your best to avoid the guys in the corner shouting and spilling their whiskey gingers." - hannah albertine, nikko duren
