One of New York’s iconic bars from the cocktail empire of Milk & Honey's Sasha Petraske, Little Branch stays true to its speakeasy style, stashed away in a basement with brace-wearing bartenders and live jazz trios belting out tunes on the upright piano. Cocktails, made to the same exacting standards as when the bar first opened, follow the theme with the likes of perfectly balanced Sidecars and Aviations. Ice is chipped off large blocks, glasses are chilled and wash lines are picture perfect. Darker than even most bars of this nature, with just candlelight to help navigate the menu, this place oozes a cosy and intimate atmosphere, something the booth seating only encourages.
