Craft cocktails, barista coffee, live music, and inventive dishes






"This tiny bar is tucked around the corner from the main Avenue, so wandering in here feels like discovering PLG's best kept secret. You can't go wrong with their inventive house specialties like Big Willie Style (bourbon, spiced-honey balsamic reduction, muddled strawberries), and Señor Hemingway (tequila, mezcal, grapefruit, lime, maraschino liqueur), but for a real treat ask Rob to mix you something special. It's also a great coffee shop in the mornings, and three nights a week a tamale cart parks right outside for your drunken pleasure." - Erin Mercurio & Jak Horner

"None of the house cocktails from this PLG spot cost more than $12, so we suggest stocking up on options like the “Flatbush Posse,” which is Erv’s take on a pineapple whiskey sour, or the “Señor Hemingway,” which is essentially a mezcal daiquiri with grapefruit. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation
