The Wallace Lounge is a nice place to grab a drink with a friend or a date. They have a food menu (slightly limited, more like snacks to share) as well as a decent cocktail and other alcoholic beverages menu. The 5-7 happy hour (daily, every day) includes reduced price cocktails as well as free french fries (which I describe as "upscale McDonalds" - and I mean that in a good way). It's in a hotel lobby, they have live music, and the staff is very friendly and willing to joke around with you. Pretty decent spot.

My new favorite hotel lobby bar? Definitely on the list and I’m 100% going back. Intimate seating for two throughout and a couple couches for larger groups. Happy hour from 5-7 and live music starting at 7p on that beautiful piano (Th-Sun). Always say yes to the free fries during happy hour and please remember to tip your server well!

Prob nice for out of towners, nothing wrong with it, Martini was pretty good, but its not a 4.8. The food was ok at best.

Intimate setting where the music wasn't extraordinarily loud. Cocktails were delicious and the live music was a great add. Great spot to bring people to have a good time.

Service was great!! Oh I love the live Jazz. But you can still hear your friend/date well. Cosy interior. But also sleek and modern. Comfortable seats.

Perfect. The service was amazing. I did not expect everyone to be so friendly, helpful and polite. The food was exquisite, try their pistachio cheesecake. And it's in the name, but the fact that it's a piano bar is what makes this place special. Great music, not overwhelming to a conversation, is the right combination for a great evening.

Happy hour at The Wallace is a must for the neighborhood. $5 off most cocktails with free gluten-free French fries. Friendly service makes it even better.

This place is truly a gem. You can enjoy a cocktail in a very polished atmosphere with lovely live music for no cover charge. The amateur google review folks quibbling over service are kind of missing the point…you get to walk right in and enjoy an elevated experience. This isn’t a cocktail bar. It’s a lounge. The value is the ambience, and this place has a great ambience. Service and actual quality of drinks (which were excellent, btw) is secondary to the fact that the hotel has opened up its space to the public.

Arrived at 8:55 for a 9 reservation. Finally seated at 9:25. Took 5 minutes to get order in and 10 more minutes to get to drinks. The drinks were good. Host was professional and nice. They need more servers. Nicely decorated rooms with plenty of space. Maybe not the best for conversation since it's a little loud. Music was super. We'll go back and try it again eventually. Great addition for the UWS.
