Alphabet City

This punk dive has outlasted decades of East Village change with a phenomenal jukebox (Sonic Youth on Friday nights, anyone?), cheap beer and liquor, and cozy booths where old movies flicker on the back wall. Grab a drink during happy hour and you might even score a toy dinosaur to trade for round two.

Graffiti blankets this classic East Village dive from floor to ceiling, and the jukebox is legendary. Cheap drinks, zero pretense, and the kind of worn-in atmosphere that makes you want to stay all night.
