The Dove: 
Since opening in summer ’04, this instant classic has been a perennial Shecky’s favorite. What’s not to like? A short staircase takes visitors to these faux-Victorian confines, which boast velvety patterned wallpaper, a cherry wood fireplace that matches the bar, and white columns straight out of a Jane Austen novel. The hip and pretty bartenders are thoroughly charming. Everything here is made to look simple enough, though it’s all been well-planned. There are no beer or shots specials because that’s not the crowd they’re courting here. However, the 3pm-8pm daily happy hour offers great specialty cocktails and multiple carafes of wine, which change constantly. Jazz plays in the early hours, but when the sun goes down, the indie rock starts. Yes, this is near NYU, but never has there been a less collegiate bar. The Dove’s for people who actually want to read books.

cutting the edge

Despite being roughed up by the host once, I love the wall paper. A great place for cool grandpas.

One of the best happy hours in the city!

Their happy hour extends until 8PM, even on the weekends. Very classy place and perfect for any occasion.

Classy Chic

My friend had her wedding reception here and it was beautiful. This bar is also a great spot for really delicious cocktails any time. Incredible staff (and owners), The Dove and has a terrific vibe.
