A review of The Black Rose in Manhattan’s Alphabet City

Located at 117 Avenue A in Manhattan’s Alphabet City, the Black Rose is a new cocktail bar in what used to be Odessa’s Bar. Layout is somewhat similar to the previous space (bar on right side upon entering, seating on the left). Five tap beers available, but the main liquid draw here are the house cocktails. The Black Rose is a good, chill spot next time you’re bar hopping along Avenue A.
