This bar was a 2013 addition to the lauded A. Kitchen. It's an understated and sunny wine bar that provides a more spacious space to suck down $1.50 oysters and boutique wines. The wines, poured in 3 or 5 ounce servings, focus on minerally whites and sherries that pair with the seafood and small plates coming out of the kitchen. The interior, designed by New York architect Edward Asfour, combines warm natural woods with clean lines and floor-to-ceiling windows. Not cheap, the experience is instead a deliverance from the ordinary, with cocktails that take matters a step above the mainstream, watered-down, hum-drum usuals. Up your game with a trip to A Bar.

- Best for Lounges Because: With many cocktail bars concentrating on, well, cocktails, it's nice to have one that's a little more focused on wine options.
- Best for Bars Because: This is a great place to linger should you favor a cocktail experience ever wine or beer, as A Bar really delivers in this area.
