Wine bar vibe:

• Moonflower - one of my favorite spots for natural wine. The vibe is fun and funky.

• Anfora - natural wine bar, good for a date or drinks with a friend.

• St Jardim - a cute place to get a glass of wine and some snacks.

• Sogno Toscano - part sandwich shop, part wine bar. It’s a good place to stop and get a glass of wine day or night.

• Vin Sur Vingt - another wine bar in the West Village.

• Entwine - I love this place for a drink and you can usually find a place to sit. It’s better for evening drinks as there’s not much natural light.

Bar vibe:

• Bar Pisellino - This place makes you feel like you're in Italy. It’s a classic Italian bar and great for a drink during the day or night - both indoor and outdoor seating is perfect, which is not always the case especially for a bar.

• Do Not Disturb - speakeasy with a dark and sultry vibe. They also serve a good burger.

• Bobo - also a restaurant, but I love to go here for a drink and appetizers (the artichokes are all time). The drinks are excellent, and it's usually easy to find a spot. The ambiance is cozy and charming.
