The Town Tavern: Pop quiz: Where can you party in the Greenwich Village without being surrounded by purple t-shirt-wearing, baby-faced NYU students whose hearts leap with joy when they get to hand over their IDs to prove that, as of last week, they’re of drinking age? Town Tavern, where being 21 isn’t good enough to get in—on the weekends, this neighborhood bar requires its crowd to be 23 and older. What that leaves is a gathering of grad students, locals, and a few seventh-year freshmen to chow down on burgers, bob their heads to a loud stream of music, and get friendly in the unisex bathroom. Sorry, kid—come back in two years…or during the week, when the age-limit isn’t in effect. |
