Drips Restaurant and Lounge deserves a place on your list for your next dining experience. Located in the Bronx, Drips is a Caribbean restaurant and cocktail lounge serving bold island flavors, signature cocktails, and elevated dining.

One of the biggest draws at Drips is their weekend brunch. Held every Saturday and Sunday from 1 PM to 5 PM, the brunch special is priced at $39.99 per person and comes with a complimentary Drips banana oats porridge. That price gets you a full experience: guests choose one starter and one entree, with the option to add 90-minute bottomless mimosas or screwdrivers for an additional $24.

Starter options include Drippy Sweet Chili Wings, Honey Garlic Wings, Cod Fish Fritters, Ackee Empanadas, Ackee Chicken Tacos, and Breadfruit Bites. For the main course, the entree selections range from Rasta Pasta with Oxtail and Curry Goat with Rasta Pasta, to Drips Chicken and Waffles, Coconut Salmon served with mashed potato and steamed spinach, Steak and Eggs, and the classic Ackee and Saltfish with fried dumplings. There is also a vegan Rasta Pasta option available. Sides such as Mac N Cheese ($10), Sweet Plantains ($7), Festival Dumplings ($8), and Fries ($7) can be added as well.

Beyond brunch, Drips offers happy hour specials, a live DJ, and a Caribbean lounge atmosphere that keeps guests coming back. The music selection ranges from R&B to the latest hits, making every visit feel like an event, especially if it's your birthday.

Why People Love It:

- A stylish, modern space perfect for groups
- A brunch menu that balances comfort food with upscale touches
- Strong music and nightlife energy even during daytime hours
- A go‑to spot for celebrations and weekend link‑ups

Whether you are going for the food or staying for the vibe, Drips delivers on both.

Gotham Jazz delivered another unforgettable evening with The Hot Toddies Band setting the tone across three electric sets, featuring an all-star lineup of musicians for the 4th anniversary. The night came alive with captivating performances by burlesque artist Tansy and tap dancer AC Lincoln, adding layers of rhythm and spectacle. Guests even had the chance to join in, as Jaime Shannon led a lively swing dance lesson that got the room moving.

Four years in, Gotham Jazz continues to be one of the city’s most vibrant weekly nights blending live music, rotating performances from dancers and aerialists, and now an updated cocktail menu with small bites to match the vibe. A true one-of-a-kind experience that keeps you coming back for more.
You can join in each and every Wednesday by booking tickets online.

Somewhere Nowhere is located at 112 West 25th Street NYC.

At Lips, they live for the celebration. Whether you are turning another year older or saying goodbye to the single life, the ladies know exactly how to make your night one you will never forget.

Speaking of the ladies, they will celebrate anything and everything with you. No occasion is too big or too small. Our server told my friend and I that the one golden rule is to keep the cocktails flowing.

The fun does not stop at the bar. They have a full comfort food menu to keep you fueled all night long. Think hearty pastas, tender steak, perfectly cooked lobster ravioli, and so much more.

While I do recommend the $59 show and dinner, Lips offers great specials throughout the weekend, including a boozy brunch and show. Sunday Brunch at Lips is a whole event on its own. I'm talking ALL YOU CAN DRINK unlimited Mimosas and Bloody Marys, paired with a delicious selection of brunch entrees. The one and only Ginger Snap has been hosting Broadway Brunch every Sunday for over 20 years, and if you have never experienced it, you are missing out on something truly legendary.

Come as you are. Leave as a regular.

Some flavors just don't need words, but here we are anyway. Coastal. Intentional. Unforgettable.
Mediterranean & asian fusion done the way it was meant to be...with the freshest ingredients, low lighting, and nowhere else to be. A great spot with friends and meaningful conversations.
The star of the show: The Antep Kibbeh

I recently joined my friends at Barsys HQ for a happy hour. The theme was manifesting Spring because you know the weather in NYC is literally playing in our faces πŸ€¨πŸ™„

The Barsys machine β€” an AI-powered cocktail (and mocktail) maker mixes perfectly measured drinks at the touch of a button. The star of the show for me was the strawberry tequila sour.

The night also features live music from Liv Kat, a NYC-based music curator and DJ known for her signature blend of downtempo, nu-disco, and jazzy house.

Thanks Barsys for having me. See you at the next one. CHEERS!

Kicking off St. Patrick’s Day with Jameson felt just right. I was excited when I received an invite to their pre St Patty's Day celebration. The party was hosted byKidSuper at their flagship store in Brooklyn. This was my first time trying the Jameson Triple Triple. It gets that name because it is triple distilled and triple casked, bringing out subtle notes of toffee, cacao, and almond while staying incredibly smooth.

My go to cocktail from the menu was the JAMESON TRIPLE TRIPLE CHESTNUT MANHATTAN: Jameson Triple Triple, Sherry, Sweet Vermouth, Angostura Bitters, and Cherry garnish.

The evening was filled with smooth whiskey, great cocktails, and good music, the perfect way to start celebrating St. Patrick’s Day. SlΓ‘inte πŸ€πŸ₯ƒ

Momoya SoHo is always a good idea for a long lunch, weekend brunch, or dinner that turns into the plan. Find @momoyasoho at 47 Prince Street, open for weekday lunch, weekend brunch, and dinner all week long.
