The details:
34 8TH AVE FRNT A
NEW YORK NY 10014-1859
Anfora – The Lowdown
Named after a vessel used to hold wine in ancient Greece and Rome, Anfora is a dimly-lit bar in the West Village with a sultry Mad Men vibe; think the sort of hole-in-the-wall establishment Carrie Bradshaw might select for a secret hookup with Mr. Big. In addition to an extensive wine list, Anfora offers a range of craft cocktails, small bites, and charcuterie and cheeses. Popular among couples and Tinder dates, its easy to become distracted by the awkward small talk taking place at the table next to you. Despite being on 8th Ave., the laid-back atmosphere carries every iota of West Village charm. For a dose of heat, try the El Mariachi #2: a mix of Azteca Azul Reposado tequila, El Peloton de la Muerte mezcal, agave, lime, mint, and habanero shrub.
