WHERE TO GET A SIDEWALK SPRITZ

Let me set the scene: you’re leaving work, and every sidewalk table is suddenly full, people posted up with drinks in hand like it’s been 5 o’clock all day. It’s that first real taste of spring in NYC. At DoNYC, we call it sidewalk spritz weather. Here’s where to grab a drink outside and get in on the action.

• BAR BIANCHI in ALPHABET CITY

• DUCKDUCK in WILLIAMSBURG

• THE BEAST NEXT DOOR in LIC

• BAR PISELLINO in the WEST VILLAGE

IN THE FUTURE

LOCALS ONLY

• We know NYC isn’t cheap, which is why we rounded up 20 concerts under $20 at our favorite local spots. (Perfect for convincing your friends to go out.)

• Missing your favorite band because you forgot when tickets dropped? Rookie move. Follow artists on DoNYC, and we’ll hit you up before they sell out.
