Waiting on a Friend

Had my birthday here, and it was one of the best hosting experiences I've ever had in the city. The waitstaff (shout out to Noah & Sushmita) was amazing, and the events team on email was super clear and communicative! Will be back, and highly recommend!

Hosted our company holiday party here and the hospitality was great. The team made sure we were taken care of at each step. Everyone loved the cocktails and food was top notch.

I had my birthday here and the workers and owners were so amazing. I couldn’t suggest this place enough, all my friends have been going off saying how much fun it was! Great music, great drinks and great vibes!

Came twice, once for a party and once on a regular night. Both times I had a great time. Music was top notch, drinks are really good. Love the cocktail choices. Can’t wait to come back again to try the new food menu

Celebrated my birthday here this past Saturday and everyone in my party had the best time! The music was amazing, and everyone was dancing. It was a birthday to remember, thanks to the team at Waiting on a Friend who helped ensure the night went flawlessly. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Nice little chill lounge. Good for after dinner drinks. I went during a week day and it wasn't too busy, plenty of places to sit and relax with a nice cocktail. The drinks were pretty good, bartenders were great. They also have some food available which I did not try. I recommend this place!

Love the decor and vibe in here! Food was delicious and the matchapeño is one of the best cocktails I’ve ever had - still thinking about it. Great crowd, had a ton of fun with a big group of friends.

Been loving the new addition to Ave A. I’ve been living in the east village for a few years and have wanted a fun cocktail bar like this for a while. Such an awesome vibe for happy hour and the renovations have this place looking brand new.

Heard about this place on Tiktok and came on a date with my partner. The seating arrangement is nice and good for dates, but the drinks are not that strong. We tried the martini and the matchapeño. Happy hour runs from 5-8pm and all cocktails are $14 along with other discounts. No reservations accepted unless a large party.
