This narrow, mahogany-paneled pub is a neighborhood favorite. It takes its Guinness pours seriously, and features cocktails named after deceased masters of verse, including a Walt Whitman Long Island Iced Tea ($14) and a Pablo Neruda spiced-rum sangria ($13). Feeling adventurous? Order the signature cocktail ($15), a secret recipe of seven alcohols – you even get to keep the glass.
