This West Village institution might seem rather unassuming, but rest assured, Art Bar hasn't lasted for almost 20 years simply by being average. Up front, a narrow path bisects the room – booths and tables on one side, the bar on the other. It's a lively (and sometimes crowded) spot. However, the real charm lies in the back room. The loud and boisterous mood gives way to a relaxed, L-shaped lounge that is well-stocked with plush, worn-in couches and shrouded with drapes. Of course, there's artwork arranged all around – be sure to check out the modern interpretation of da Vinci's Last Supper.
