International Bar

International Bar fits into the East Village scene like it’s always been there. Just a block from First Avenue, the spot draws crowds for the fast service and the sports feeds that keep every screen busy. It’s the kind of place where beer, wine, and hard liquor flow alongside cocktails mixed to order, and you can still slide in outside food if you’re not picky about the menu.

Table service, seating at the bar, and happy hour drinks round out the list of offerings. When the neighborhood empties its pockets for the evening, the bar stands ready for whoever walks through. Find it at 102 1st Ave, New York, NY 10009 and call ahead at (212) 777-1643 if a table feels like the better bet. Directions are always up to date on the map.
