A review of Mace in Manhattan’s Alphabet City

Located just west of Avenue C at 649 E. 9^th Street in Manhattan’s Alphabet City, Mace is a cocktail bar in the old Louis 649 space.  Mace features 12 seasonal house cocktails centered around various spices (think Paprika, cumin, Mace, cocoa, etc.)  In addition to cocktails, Mace offers a few wines/beers, but the cocktails are the main draw here.  For food, Mace has small plates: mainly flatbreads and cheese/charcuterie.  If you’re a fan of artisanal cocktails, then you need to add Mace to your next Avenue C NYC bar crawl!
