Pub Crawl NYC Reviews

A review of Gibson & Luce in Manhattan’s Midtown South


Located at 19 West 31st Street, Gibson & Luce is a speakeasy-style bar in the basement level of the Life Hotel.  According to some, this space was a true speakeasy back in the Prohibition era.  Now, it’s an early 21st century era NYC “speakeasy”.  Patrons can enter directly from the street by climbing down a few stairs to the somewhat unmarked door (see photo below) or through the hotel lobby and take the elevator down one level.  The bar seats around 10 patrons and other table seating is good for parties of 2 to 6.  We figure this space can get crowded fairly quickly, so it’s probably a good idea to arrive early.
