Cove Lounge

Harlem native Alyah Horsford-Sidberry pays homage to her neighborhood with this bi-level uptown drinkery, decked out with hardwood floors, a concrete bar and plush brown stools. The 75-seat space serves riffs on classic tipples (Lenox Sidecar: cognac, hibiscus grenadine, lemon juice) and tropically inspired cocktails (Smuggler’s Cove: spiced rum, cognac, orange liqueur, almond syrup, pineapple and orange juices, tiki bitters, port wine float). The Caribbean-inspired menu includes dishes like jerk-rubbed Island Chicken wings with a pineapple-mint dipping sauce and crispy shrimp with a coconut and curry sauce.
