Horse With No Name - Review - East Village - New York - The Infatuation
"Horse With No Name has no website, no social media accounts, and, once you actually locate it, a sign on the door that says, “No TikToks, No Assholes.” The result is a narrow East Village wine bar with high ceilings and brick walls that's refreshingly low-key, possibly because everyone who enters is a tiny bit scared to be the asshole. Wine by the glass is $14 and whatever they're pouring tonight, but they also have a full bottle list, and a bucket of five Narragansetts (a “Bucket For The Buds”) for $20. Come for a pre- or post-dinner drink, or to read a book at the bar, or to tell a secret in a space that feels like the East Village’s best-kept secret that we are actively making less of a secret (we’re sorry). If you need a bite to go with your gamay, slather some sourdough in anchovy butter, or dip some potato chips in a mix of mayo and ketchup.

A sign promising no Instagram/tiktok and a sound system only playing vinyl says a lot about the vibe. The wines; changing almost daily and being offered by some of the most knowledgeable cuties out there. Zoe in particular has an encyclopedic knowledge and a deep understanding of terroir. Xox

Great wine. Great snacks. Great service.
Go here. Listen to records. Relax. Get off your phone and unwind.

Incredible wine bar. The atmosphere and vibe is perfect for drinks and great conversations. It has so much charm (candlelit, brick walls). Also, Rueben is a wine expert. I just asked him for his favorite recs all night and he kept picking winners. This is my top wine bar in all of NYC now. Highly recommend checking this new bar out! Cam and Christine (the owners) are also so hospitable and friendly. 10 / 10 recommend!

Really good spot. Bread was delicious and the wine recommended by the man behind the bar was exactly what my husband and I were hoping for. Good tunes too. Very reasonably priced imo.

Sexy, cozy, beautifully priced natural wines. I saw the hottest people ive ever seen in the east village drinking a $14 glass of chilled Pinot dAunis here.

Fantastic new wine bar in the LES. The owner Cam is especially friendly, personable, and passionate about the bottles they have on hand.

A solid wine bar! I wouldn't say it's too vibey, but a great spot for a date. It's more intimate than social. Wines were delicious and very well priced!!! Service was good as well :-) servers were nice and we didn't have to wait too long for a Friday evening, despite there being a short line! Would return! Just wished they had a tad bit more food options
