Comfy vibe of worn-in elegance - loved a cocktail bar that isn’t try-hard. Drinks were fast and delish and the bartender was so friendly and helpful too. (Can bring in your own food.)

Had a wonderful time last night at The Guthrie Inn grabbing espresso martinis with a friend! The vibe is awesome and the bartenders are so friendly. Great spot to have a drink catch some banter!

If you're looking for a bar with a home like feeling then this is the place. The bartenders are great at making cocktails very friendly not too loud great music, and a great place to take a date.

Fun little dive-cocktail spot. Very unique for the neighborhood. Sure it's not The Dead Rabbit, or Apotheke, or Attaboy, or Dutch Kills, Fresh Kills, or Little Branch, but what it lacks in stature, it makes up for its simplicity. The cocktails are simple and the ambience is very chill and the staff is very sweet. It's not fancy and pretentious, but it's a cool joint to hang loose. Make sure you get a bite next door @Earl's Beer and Cheese!

Matt took great care of my group of 12. Incredible mixologist and great conversation. Highly recommend.

What a gem in UES, came with a crew and we all were pleasantly surprise by how chill the place was and the high quality of the cocktails. (Which you can order from and off the menu) The bartender on Saturday night was so friendly and fast, even working alone in a full bar, you can really notice how much he cares about his craft. Definitely be back
