Common Ground, New York, New York, American Restaurant Details

Food:

A great east village haunt for a low key happy hour. Instant bonus - they have a plethora of board games to play while you sip your gin and tonics! What's not to love?! I love the open layout and the bar staff is always polite, plus never overly crowded! Great specials and killer playlist, their all day weekend open bars are nice for a chilled out drink spot you can hit up with a group or a few friends. Great sandwiches as well!

Food:

Super loud live music in there tonight. Like way too loud. Not going back.

I haven't been back here since I turned 21, but I have to make time for a trip! , Its a pretty spacious bar and they have booths for larger groups to sit. I had a reservation for ten, but it was only big enough for the six of us that showed up. The ambiance was cool. The waitress was nice and attentive and made sure what each of us ordered ,was on separate bills.

The happy hour specials are awesome and the music was great.
The board games is what really brought me here. There are a few pieces missing, but it adds to its charm. Board games are great way to connect with friends and this bar knows it!Nothing beats a little drunken friendly competition.

Overall great place to pre-game . Be warned however, that when your reserved time is up, you will be told to relocate. People are like hawks for seats. Otherwise, great fun diverse place to hang out.Will definitely be going again soon!

What happens when you mix an overworked 20-something year old woman and a happy hour that offers $5 cosmos?

a) a very drunk woman

b) a very happy woman

c) an interesting conversation with a stranger

d) uncontrollable laughter

All of the above! DUUH

What can I say? Bishes love cosmos.
Especially when they're $5.

With the support of Dan, Arielle, and my photographer I was able to do a photo shoot for the cover of my upcoming book, Wine and a Story. The decor was perfect—warm, inviting, comfortable—for a book about people relaxing in a bar with a glass of wine and a book. Who could not feel at home in this bar with it's plush sofas, games, books, and a bartender that makes you feel like a special guest. The food and drinks were excellent. The models vowed to return and I will too. I will have to check out the Open Mic and Trivia night.
