West Village
Brandy Library Lounge
New York, NY, 10013, United States
More than 900 bottles of fine spirits, including the city’s largest scotch collection, line the backlit “bookshelves” at this Tribeca lounge. Catering to a professional, 25-and-over crowd, Brandy Library offers whiskies, brandies, rums, and mescals from around the world, including a wide assortment of rare bottles. In addition to the wall-to-wall shelves, the interior is designed with small, sleek table lamps, dark leather chairs, and a working fireplace. “Spirit sommeliers” explain the history of selected libations, while “librarians” craft signature cocktails which are served on silver platters. The eclectic hors d’oeuvre menu offers cognac-cured foie gras and Gruyére cheese napoleons.
Insider Tip:
The staff is dedicated to preventing overcrowding in the lounge, so if you don’t have a reservation, arrive early for a better chance of snagging a seat.
