Sometimes, we leave The Dead Rabbit.

Madness, we know. But New York is home to some of the world's greatest bars - historic and iconic, divey and lively, elegant and elevated.

That's why, tucked inside our Parlor menu, you'll find our guide to some of our favorite places to eat and drink across the city. Every recommendation comes from the Parlor team, with illustrations by .studio.

Bookmark this for your next night out - or better yet, make a bar crawl of it.

Melissa isn't just a Dead Rabbit legend - she's a New York legend. And when she tells you where to eat or drink, trust us - it's worth paying attention.

Here, she shares the best Martini in the city (a Vesper riff with saffron and green curry), her go-to lobster rolls, why her favorite pizza isn't a traditional New York slice, and where she and her husband Chris head for date-night burgers.

And her second favorite bartender to visit? Jack McGarry, whenever he's on a guest shift. Not because she misses him, but because she gets to spend the evening winding him up. After all, he spends most of the year terrorizing her….

Check our pinned comments for the full list, and stay tuned for more.

It's our TX birthday, and absolutely everyone's invited - including you.

A little over two years ago, we got the keys to 204 East Sixth Street, formerly home to the legendary B.D. Riley's. We knew we had big shoes to fill, and we hope we've done our forebears proud.

Bringing this space back to life - and filling it with people once again - has been a real honor. We couldn't have done it without our incredible team, our community, and every guest who's walked through our doors. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.

Now, enough of the sentimental stuff.

Join us from 12pm today for $10 Espresso Martinis, Frozen Irish Coffees, and Irish Coffee Martinis all day, live music from 7pm - 9pm, and DJ Mixer Rogers taking over from 9pm - 1am.

Yep, we put our caffeinated cocktails on special for a reason - so you've every chance of making it all the way to 2am.

Céad míle fáilte, y'all.

Before Jack had a Dead Rabbit email address, he used [email protected]. Yep, really.

Does it still work? We've no idea - but it did help to inspire this Mai Tai twist, created by our very own Chris Stanley.

As the story goes, while working at Belfast's Merchant Hotel, Jack and the team procured a bottle of Wray & Nephew 17 Year Rum to recreate Trader Vic's original 1946 recipe. That mind-bendingly expensive bottle is long gone, but we've built a rum blend that gets as close as we possibly can - El Dorado 15 yr, Rhum J.M, and Worthy Park 109.

Just add lime, orgeat, and dry curaçao for a velvety, lush, and tropical take on the classic - you’ve got mail.

Ireland is currently basking in high summer - and there are few pleasures in life as rewarding as an Irish beer garden in the sunshine, al fresco Tayto tapas, and a perfect pint of Guinness. Close our eyes, and we picture Gartlan's, Kingscourt, Co. Cavan.

For over a century, Gartlan's was a picture-perfect thatched pub, its image appearing on posters and postcards sent around the world. But the financial crash of 2008 hit hard. Last orders were called. The windows were boarded up. Before long, the famous thatch was covered in weeds.

Then one day, five years later, Sheila Smith was driving past and thought… I wonder…

Sheila and her husband, Padraig, painstakingly photographed and documented everything in the shuttered pub. They removed every knick-knack, photograph, and quirky sign, restoring each piece before returning it to exactly where it had been. They repaired the old pot-bellied stove, and re-thatched the famous roof.

And today, Gartlan's is thriving once again. Grab a table outside, stay for the live music, and bask in the wonder that is the Great Irish Pub.

When Alice Carroll moved from Ireland to Austin and founded Foxes Bow, she had a vision to disrupt dusty whiskey shelves and bring something distinctive, modern, and delicious to the market. Darren's here too.

Brittany at The Dead Rabbit TX challenged the duo to make Irish Whiskey Espresso Martinis, while chatting about their grá for whiskey, Texas, and the realities of building a brand from the ground up.
