This lucky neighborhood now boasts this locale featuring an arsenal of craft beers, whiskeys and bourbons and a troth of pork-starring share plates in a bright, open tile-lined space. Be gone eating and drinking alone in a dark pub. Step into their light and be the HHIC (Head Hog In Charge)!

Just what Harlem needed: a nice little cozy spot for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or just coffee and dessert. The menu flirts with Mexican-influenced and Italian dishes. And for those wanting Americana fare, the burgers are true winners paired with sweet potato fries.

Lolo’s might be the new kid on the block, but, man, do you want to be invited over for dinner! And you are every night (except Monday).

With a cozy, lodge-like atmosphere and a killer happy hour, Mess Hall serves up a seasonal selection of craft beers, bourbons, and cocktails, not to mention their famous hot dogs. Stop by on Tuesday nights for trivia and Wednesdays for open mic.
