MercBar vets Matt Dino and Sean Hughesare behind this laid-back lounge, in the former Eldridge space. The narrow room, lined with exposed brick on one side and a stone wall on the other, features burgundy leather banquettes and black-and-white photos of New York street scenes. Find standard bottled beers (Stella, Guinness), along with specialty cocktails, like the Peary White, which combines pear-flavored vodka with orange liqueur, white-cranberry juice, lime and mint.
