Nathan Fielder Bartends at Brooklyn Bar Alligator Lounge for ‘The Rehearsal’ HBO Show | Eater NY

"Maury Rubin, who launched several businesses after the closing of the beloved City Bakery in 2019 and has been hosting pop-ups under the name the Color of Chocolate (which went on hiatus), is returning with the pop-up for May around the corner from his former eponymous bakery. Rubin will be serving mornings through afternoons at a cocktail lounge at 10 E. 16th Street, near Fifth Avenue; expect chilled chocolate drinks, pastry, and puddings. Rubin is also inviting guest pastry chefs like Anne Rosenzweig, who will be serving her signature chocolate bread pudding, once at City Bakery, for the first time in Manhattan in more than two decades." - Emma Orlow

The Hottest New Bars in New York City, May 2024

"Housed in a “moody, cozy space” in what had been the newer location of the stalwart diner, Chat ‘N Chew, Another Country is a listening bar named for the 1962 James Baldwin novel. The food menu includes fried peanuts, fried chicken, and a sardine sandwich, while drinks in the $16 to $18 range come with names like “No Room for Squares” that show off mezcal, Campari, Carpano, and mole bitters. It’s owned by Botanica’s Mark Connell (also a current partner in Brooklyn pizzeria Oma Grassa and the Ridgewood bar Nowadays), and DJ and bartender Timothy Jenkins." - Eater Staff

A fun place to grab a cocktail and other drinks! We came here on a Friday night to drink some cocktails in a nice atmosphere, and this bar perfectly fit the bill. I thought my cocktail, Vivaldo’s Last Novel, was tasty and complex. I liked that you’re able to hold a conversation in here but you don’t ever feel stifled. I would definitely recommend for a casual drink (the beer + shot special was a great deal).

I really like this spot— great music and interior— but I cannot speak on the recent changes except that I was quite fond of the name “Another Country”. It had quite a cosmopolitan ring to it, so I’m sad to see it go. Service is typically very good and quite tolerant of large groups. Though I have to mention that when I ordered an amaretto sour, barely a mixed drink, not only did the bar tender not know how to make it (asking if I wanted egg white), it was vastly overcharged. It felt quite silly, in my opinion. However, I would be remiss to give them fewer stars since the typical servers are very friendly and good at what they do. You can get away with two drinks for >$20, which is good.

Husband and I wanted to go out to a spot that wouldn’t be overly loud where we could grab a great drink, a bite to eat and still be able to hear each other talk and this place fit the bill. Music was excellent and not overwhelming for the space. The backroom felt like a hidden lounge in the back. We got the tequila and the mezcal drink and they were both delicious! The best was definitely the food, fries were some of the best I’ve had and the peanuts were unreal, the chicken was a perfect mix of moist and crispy outside. A spot we’d be happy to go back too.

What a great find. A friend recommended this place which was recently opened. If you have been in NYC for awhile - this was the old Chat & Chew location (oh how I miss C&C mac & cheese) Atmosphere - really cool, minimal vibe with great music playing. The music was a bit loud but over all really great vide to catch up with a friend. Cocktails - Very good and not outrageously priced. I wouldnt say they were super strong. I had 3 drinks and should have been much more tipsy than I was but still quality. Service - Attentive and available when needed but not pushy nor did they try to rush you out. Food - We only had french fries and they were good. Food menu is snacked based Overall, I would recommend and def would return. Didnt take a lot of pictures as I was to busy catching up with a friend.

One of the owners was really combative with me the first time I went-- I still went back bc the rest of the staff was cool, drinks were good and they had some tasty dishes. Apparently they recently laid off almost all of the staff that helped open & make AC so great in the first place, chefs & bartenders alike. Wouldn't want any more money supporting this place or these kind of owners.

this place felt kind of divey but i know it’s not a dive bar. my friend & i both got the clover club and then returned it unfortunately. penicillin was also just ok (it’s my drink of choice so i basically get it anywhere it’s offered lol) none of the food really stuck out to me and neither the food or drink menu is very extensive either. tbh idk if i would come again but glad i tried it

My husband and I were looking for a spacious bar to get together with a few friends and Another Country was perfect! Our group gathered at the bar and the bartenders were very friendly and quick. The host also tried to put our group in the back but we were a bit too large. It was thoughtful of them to try. The drinks are fantastic (including mocktails). We also tried some of the food - also great. The vibe is warm with great jazz music playing and not too loud. The bar is pretty new and very clean. We'll be going back!

Cute new spot with a ton of hidden seating in the back. Pretty cool cocktail names and selection. Lighter on beer selection and some bites. New, clean, fun, and worth a visit!

Nice little spot. I came on a Wednesday night to try this fried chicken I'd heard about. Great time to come, because it was by no means crowded, plenty of seating, dare I say SPACIOUS. They have 2 little tables set up outside the bar and I got to snag one of them so I could people-watch on a warm summer evening. Both the bartender and server were super cool and friendly; None of the cocktails on their menu interested me, but whoever said the bartender knows their stuff was right. They whipped me up a DELICIOUS and potent "rum punch mix" to go with my order of fried chicken (Note: Fries are separate, and an additional $8; places should stop doing this lol). Now I can see why this chicken was recommended; amazing crispy, juicy inside, tonkatsu-style is what it reminded me of, with a tangy side of what had to HOMEMADE ranch. It was a lovely, pleasant, peaceful little solo date experience. Also, awesome thing to note; they have STOOLS BY THE BATHROOM. Best setup EVER that no one really thinks about.

Cute, kinda-hidden new (since February?) addition of a semi-casual bar to the neighborhood. We've only been once, but thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to returning to sample more of their menu. According to our server, Another Country took over the old Chat 'n' Chew space. I'd entirely forgotten that restaurant even existed; I don't think I've ever stepped foot inside once, after living and working in the area for more than a decade. I'm glad that Another Country opened here, though. Saying that it's an upgrade is a drastic understatement. After stepping down into the entryway, you're immediately greeted by a substantial bar. The host stand is apparently just past the bar -- then the venue extends extremely far back; perhaps the entire street block? I was amazed that the hallway just kept on going and going. It's not obvious from the street just how expansive the space is. We only had one drink each and some light bites, although I eyed several items I'd like to try in the future. The fried peanuts made for a savory bar snack, but I probably wouldn't order them again. The mortadella sandwich, however, knocked my socks off. Imagine the most classic crunchy grilled cheese sandwich exterior, but rather than gooey dairy in the middle, you have flawlessly aesthetic layers of meltingly tender mortadella and impeccably stacked pickles. Every bite was an umami bomb and offered an exquisite juxtuposition of textures and flavors. 100% would recommend -- we split one sandwich between the two of us and it was a perfect pre-dinner snack. Drink-wise, I found the No Room for Squares to be a sound rendition of a mezcal negroni, but the Rufus -- with its unexpected combination of vanilla and cynar -- really stood out. The cocktail list isn't expansive, but whoever's behind the bar knows what they're up to.

This has quickly become my favorite neighborhood spot. Great music, delicious drinks and cool vibe. A great addition to Flatiron.
