Shochu Bar

Shochu Bar sits two blocks south of the Broadway theaters, sandwiched between office lobbies and the sidewalks of Hell’s Kitchen. Hit the corner at West 51st Street and Sixth Avenue for a quick drink before curtain or a nightcap after. It’s the kind of place where a rotating draft list and a short shochu menu swap in local spirits you won’t see on every block, plus evening bar snacks you can order without the formality of a menu section. On nights when the sidewalk crowds thin, the interior glow catches those who still want borrowing one bottle at a time or a just-poured short pour on ice.

Find it at 330 W 51st St, New York, NY 10019; 917-261-6266 handles your call; directions pull open like street view right from your phone.
