Clockwork Bar Bar & Pub ·$

Situated on the Lower East Side, Clockwork Bar is a go-to for rockers and lovers of rock and roll and punk music. Top-to-bottom graffiti-lined walls and an all-over punk theme dominate the space, giving this dive bar its electrifying vibes. This grunge aesthetic extends to the washrooms as well. Also adding to its highlights are affordable beers, frozen margaritas, and fantastic bartenders. Despite staying open till late, it is better to drop in early with your friends as this local bar usually gets crowded.

STEPH JUDGEMENT: The perfect East Village dive bar. The hubby and I were on our way to the Double Down Saloon when we spotted this place on Google Maps. We were intrigued by the name and reviews...

Desde que entras, te envuelve una estética punk única: paredes cubiertas de graffiti, luces rojizas y una vibra cruda que se siente genuina, no fabricada. Es el tipo de bar donde cada rincón...
