R Bar (NYC): Having housed Pioneer Bar for half a decade, this enormous 400+-capacity room was always begging to become something grander, and now it is. Decked out in red with stripper poles in the back room and a rock-minded DJ spinning to a neighborhood crowd—probably the one displaced when nearby 6s & 8s closed—R Bar is hoping to avoid the striped-shirt clubber types that frequent nearby BLVD and the like. That said, the door policy here is lenient, the beer starts flowing in the immediate after-work hours, and those suds are flowing from a tap, which you won’t see in W. 27th Street’s promoter-heavy boites. (R Bar is owned by the team behind Meatpacking District standout Brass Monkey.) |
