I recently went to the Biergarten at the Standard Hotel to celebrate a friend's birthday. The Standard Hotel is situated in New York's Meatpacking district, and is one of the go-to spots for nightlife here in the city. I've heard a lot about the Biergarten, but have never gone as I am not a beer drinker.
However, I figured this was the time to try it. It was a beautiful evening in the city, and all the seating is outdoor. In addition to the beer, there is also a full bar. I headed for the bar, but being as packed as it was I didnt get a drink because the bartender kept ignoring me...slightly annoying, yes.
The crowd was a mix of afterwork investment bankers, want to be frat boys, and Europeans.
Overall, the atmosphere is great, the beer is good (i think?) and theres even pingpong tables. I will definitely be frequenting on another summer night.
The ping pong tables sound like a fun touch! Sounds like an interesting crowd, too, haha.
ReplyDeleteI HATE when bartenders are asses. Like, you see me standing here and I haven't even ordered so it's not like I've been rude to you or given you a reason to not serve me. UGH. I'm fired up lol!
ReplyDeleteI need to get the The Standard Downtown! I've only been to the Hollywood location which is just meh.
That picture makes it look very French and chic!
