Amazing selection of drink options. Staff was very friendly. The "lounge" area was full and I could see why with how quaint and cozy it was. Music was very millennial (take that or leave it, I enjoyed it). Only drawback was where we were sat, do NOT sit at the semi-circle booths. The tables stick out about a foot into the walk way and we had our table bumped at least 7 times after we started counting because it was so frequent. Didn't lose any of our drinks because of it but that's mostly because we knew it was too much of a risk to have them on the table. They need to cut off the ends or something.
Otherwise, fantastic place!

Highly recommend if you’re feeling a very relaxing atmosphere after walking on the high line, which art bar is a very short walk from. We enjoyed the last supper mural in the back corner.

Drinks are cheap. They serve fun flavored jello shots in plastic syringes! They serve late night bites too.

The front of the bar is divey and the back is like you're in your friend's basement just hanging out.

Great casual spot!

Popped in here for a quick drink after the Whitney and Little Island and hit their happy hour. Great timing! Sat at the bar and Danny was a great server - attentive and friendly. Nice selection of beers, wines & cocktails @ ~$5 during happy hour.

We came across a very good LGBTQ+ friendly bar in downtown!
Cocktails are absolutely amazing!
We tried rum & coke, vodka cranberry, tequila & soda, couple of Prosecco’s, mojitos and lychee martini.. everything was perfect.
The server ‘Carlita’ aka Black bald smarty helped us have a best experience at Art bar.
A great vibe overall for everyone!
Definitely recommended!!

I really enjoyed my time in here with my sister. The vibe was cool. Inside in the back is awesome. It was pretty packed night. Happy hour drinks weren’t too bad. The bartender was really nice. The food was good. Really no complaints. Only thing would be, some of the music didn’t always flow with me.
