A mainstay of Seventh Avenue, Mustang Harry's has long been a known watering hole for the sports-watching crowd looking for a pre- or post-refresh before marching over to Madison Square Garden, only a brisk, three-minute walk away. But catching the game here is an experience in itself, as walls and corners of the bi-level gastropub are plastered with over 20 TVs, guaranteeing a good view for nearly everyone in the bar.  Game day brings shoulder-to-shoulder crowds, most of whom are visibly not from Manhattan and yelling "Defense!" every few minutes is their MO. But if you did your due diligence and booked a table or a booth for you and your friends, you can at least get a bit of breathing room while you eat the standard pub fare, including burgers and wings tossed in a house Mustang sauce (aka a sweet chili), as well as Irish staples, such as shepherd's pie. The cocktails hover around the $20 mark, and naturally, there are some beers in pints and glasses. With this being an Irish bar, expect a range of whiskeys and scotches if that's more your game day treat. Whether you are coming hot off a win or a loss at MSG, everyone is a winner at Mustang Harry's: there's a late-night happy hour that runs from midnight to 2am. Cheers to that.

We really like eating around the city, and we're guessing you do, too. So lucky for all of us, we've packed all our favorite restaurants under one roof at the Time Out Market New York. The DUMBO location in Empire Stores has fried chicken from Jacob’s Pickles, pizza from Fornino, delicious bagels from Ess-a-bagel and more amazing eateries—all cherry-picked by us. Chow down over two floors with views of the East River, Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan skyline.  RECOMMENDED: The best things do in NYC

If you thought getting a table at Per Se was tough, try getting into Rao’s. On second thought, don’t. Rao’s (pronounced “RAY-ohs”) is really a private club without the dues. To eat here, you’ll need a personal invite from one of the heavy hitters who “owns” a table. These CEOs, actors, politicians, news personalities and neighborhood old-timers established a long-standing arrangement with the late, legendary owner Frankie “No” Pellegrino, and that's what ensures a seat at one of the ten tables at the Italian-American icon. In fact, reading this review is probably the closest you’ll get to Rao’s.

Everyone watches women’s sports. And those who do, do so at Athena Keke’s. Co-founders and couple Claudia “Clau” Capriles and Alexandra “Al” Murray have created a Clinton Hill sports haven that’s as charming as it is welcoming, looking more like a retro-futuristic diner than a classic dive bar. But Athena Keke’s is every bit as serious about sports, broadcasting women’s games across its TVs and projectors. That commitment—along with excellent cocktails and globally inspired bites—gives even those of us who may be lacking in the sports department a reason to celebrate. The vibe: The inside of Athena Keke's is as if a posh diner started vibing with the '80s synthwave aesthetic, with neon lights that glow pink at dusk, marble countertops and blue and blush velvet booths that curve and kiss the walls. There are countless cat motifs here—the bar is named after the couple's tabby—as well as sparkly sports paraphernalia, with bedazzled soccer and tennis disco balls and basketball hoops that dangle necklaces over the nets. TVs constantly stream women's sports (and men's, given whose playing) and can get quite crowded during game time. But standing room is a thing, and there are plenty of TVs along each wall, plus a drop-down projector to catch all the action.  The food: Burgers, sad wings and beer? Out. Bolivian cheesy bites and crisp pork belly sandwiches? In. Leaning on her hometown of La Paz, Bolivia, paired with a little finesse from time spent at down-the-street neighboring...

Veniero’s Pasticceria and Caffe
Veniero’s Pasticceria and Caffe
Between 1876 and 1924, millions of Italians immigrated to America. Among them was a man called Antonio Veniero, who settled in New York City and opened his own cafe in 1894. It's here that he sold candy, espresso, and biscotti – all homemade, naturally. Over the years, the Veniero family has placed greater focus on cakes and expanded the premises, but the Veniero's traditional essence remains. Yes, you can still grab a great cup of Joe and freshly baked biscotti here. But you really should allow yourself to be lured in by gorgeous cakes, cannoli, and deliciously creamy deep-dish cheesecake behind the counter. Then pull up a chair at one of the charming wooden tables and savor your purchase while marveling at the Neapolitan glass ceiling and Italian renaissance art decorating the walls. And if it's so good that you simply cannot wait to return, you can order Veniero’s online with nationwide shipping. Who says you can't have a cannoli kit to yourself?

Park Avenue Armory
This New York City landmark houses a series of 16 period rooms from the late 19th century, designed by such luminaries as Louis Comfort Tiffany and the Herter Brothers. The Armory has been transformed into one of the city's premier alternative spaces for showing art; the beauty of this historical setting allows for interesting visual contrast with the series of contemporary projects commissioned by the nonprofit arts organization.

Forest Hills Stadium
After extensive renovation, this storied tennis stadium—home to memorable matches and concerts from the ’20s through the ’80s (including the Beatles, Stones and others)—reopened its doors in 2013 with a rowdy Mumford & Sons gig. These days, the venue regularly hosts a wide variety of artists ranging from Chainsmokers to Tom Petty.

Beyond the iconic, show-stopping displays—the grizzly bear in the Hall of North American Mammals, the 94-feet long blue whale, the prehistoric Barosaurus skeleton rearing up as if to scare the adjacent Allosaurus skeleton—is an expertly curated, 150-year-old museum that fills visitors of all ages with a curiosity about the universe. Whether you’re interested in the world below our feet or the cultures of faraway lands or the stars light-years beyond our reach, your visit is bound to teach you a few things you never knew. With four floors filled to the brim with artifacts, you could spend a whole day just looking at the taxidermied animals that hail from North America, Asia, Africa, rain forests and the ocean. Or, conversely, spend a day like an anthropologist and study indigenous Americans, Asian cultures, African peoples, Pacific tribes, and, before these rich cultures existed, the evolutionary origins of humans and our near (now extinct) cousins, like neanderthals. Also don't miss the new wing called the Gilder Center, which houses a butterfly vivarium, an insectarium and a 360-degree immersive experience, in an architectural masterpiece.
