Whiskey River (CLOSED)

The cabin-inspired decor makes sense when you consider the bar’s lineage—Whiskey River comes from the same owners as Gramercy’s Black Bear Lodge. This rustic, backwoods-style saloon features an unholy trinity of bar games—Big Buck Hunter, video bowling and beer pong. That, combined with flat-screen TVs and a killer selection of the namesake spirit— 20 whiskeys include oaky Bulleit Bourbon—helps keep the boisterous Murray Hill crowd entertained.
