Local is a fantastic neighborhood spot and exactly the kind of place you want when you’re looking to grab a drink without a lot of noise or pretense. The vibe is low-key and relaxed, and it fits perfectly into the surrounding neighborhood.
The drinks were great! They serve wine and local beer. While the bar menu is limited, it is clearly thought through rather than just filler options. It’s one of those places where quality matters more than quantity, and it shows. We had the grilled cheese and the bratwurst.
I did have an isolated incident during one visit, but what really stood out was how quickly and professionally management responded. They took the situation seriously and made sure it was handled, which says a lot about how the place is run.
Overall, it’s a great spot to unwind and enjoy a well-made drink.

Super cool little bar that, as follows the name, is full of locals. Beer selection is a bit heavy on the IPAs for my taste but they still had good alternative options and thats what sells so I cant complain. Good for them. Would happily go back.

Local is the kind of bar that proves how diverse and amazing New York City's nightlife is. A friend of mine and I had just had a wonderful dinner and were looking for a bar where we could have a few beers and hear each other talk...on a Saturday night in SOHO. And while yes, there were bars packed to the brim in ever direction, there was also this beautiful non-assuming chill little spot called Local, nestled quietly on a quiet part of Sullivan street, that despite it being 11 on a Saturday, had seats available, incredible beers and wines on tap, and a friendly bartender who cooked us up a free bowl of popcorn the second we walked in. We sat there for hours, talking, and just passing time in a spot where everyone felt genuinely warm, kind, and, well, local.

Tiny tiny bar, cozy and welcoming atmosphere and decor. Bartender/owner was friendly and helpful (with ordering beers). 3 tables and some counter seating. Popcorn was a bit stale.
