Party Earth Review: Tucked away in a tiny East End alley, Loungelover is an alluring little treasure, the sort of secret hideaway that most regular patrons hope no one else discovers. Guests are greeted by a hostess before being led into the inner sanctum of cozy nooks and various seating areas surrounding a center bar. The charming but eclectic décor features rustic brick walls, antique anatomy posters, sweeping red velvet curtains, Swedish rocking horses, and a mix of oriental and art deco light fixtures that all add up to a glamorous, if manic, atmosphere. The affluent crowd is just as diverse and includes groups ranging from sharply-dressed professionals and folks from the fashion industry to hip creative types and successful musicians. Loungelover is definitely more geared to sharing an evening with friends or a date rather than meeting new people, and very few people actually hang out near the bar. Instead, patrons prefer to remain at their intimate tables, ordering from one of the most delightful and inventive cocktail menus in the city and enjoying some delectable nibbles. With its fabulous drinks, tasty snacks, friendly service, and lovely look, Loungelover is hard to beat for a glamorous yet unpretentious night on the town.

Loungelover Review

Tip from Adriana:

“Call ahead to book a table. Also, if you can’t find a cocktail that seems just right, tell the bartender your preferences and liquors of choice and let him create a masterpiece just for you.”
