Hidden Lane is New York's newest hidden gem, and my recent visit left me thoroughly impressed. I tried the Espresso martinis ā both the regular and the chocolate one, and they were absolutely phenomenal. The chocolate variant had a perfectly balanced sweetness that pleasantly surprised me. The bar's bi-level setup, lounge, and outdoor garden create an ideal entertaining space with a touch of old New York charm.
The picturesque garden, illuminated by lit-up trees, adds to the ambiance. The recent renovations with barn-wood paneling and white brick, along with ornate brass accents, showcase attention to detail. The upstairs lounge features cozy seating, a fireplace, and a separate bar area. Steps away from Gramercy Park, Hidden Lane offers a delightful escape.
The bar's extended hours, open until midnight on weekdays and 2 am on weekends, cater to various preferences. Whether you're sipping a margarita on the garden patio in the summer or enjoying a hot toddy in December, Hidden Lane provides an intimate venue year-round. The versatility of the space makes it suitable for after-work hangouts, corporate events, birthdays, happy hours, networking events, and private parties.
With two floors, two separate bars, and a spacious outdoor seating area, Hidden Lane accommodates events of all sizes. The experienced and hands-on team ensures that every event is memorable. Overall, Hidden Lane is a must-visit for its fantastic drinks, charming ambiance, and versatile...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI was very excited when I thought Iād found a bar with an open-year-long heated patio in Manhattan in January. Unfortunately, itās not true.

Itās very difficult for people with disabilities to be sociable during this time of COVID confusion/denial. Iām not sure why a business would lie about being accommodating. Whatās the point? Itās not like I could have possible stayed.
Thanks for almost ruining my evening. (Luckily we found another bar with some outdoor seating. Not heated, but at least I could enjoy a drink and a chat like a regular person for a...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI held my 23rd birthday at Hidden Lane this weekend and the whole experience was so incredible! I rented out the bar from 9-12 for my friends and everyone had a blast. The drinks were incredible and the space is so much fun for a large group. The staff was super accommodating and did everything they could to make sure I had the best time. They helped me coordinate decoration deliveries and set ups. Drinks were fabulous and the bar tenders were so friendly and fun. I was able to connect my own playlist to the speakers, which was perfect to get all my friends dancing! Would definitely go back to this bar on a regular night and would recommend that anyone hosts a private event here. The space is pretty big, with an upstairs and downstairs bar as well as a lovely outside area. Great atmosphere and vibes, as the bar is very...
