This place is basically now coasting on its previous reputation. What made Thyme Bar famous was its specialty cocktails with elaborate presentations. That’s most of the reason people were attracted to this place on Instagram and otherwise. I do not understand the business sense on doing away with your unique strength and still charging insane prices for basic cocktails.

Disappointed, especially as someone who enjoyed Thyme Bar before. If you liked Thyme Bar before these changes, fair warning it is not the same! Most of what made it good is not there any longer.

Cody is amazing and the most innovative mixologist I’ve ever had the experience of encountering! He made me a “what ales you” cocktail and it’s the most delectable mix of beer and espresso ice cream with root beer and it’s so so so good!!! Yummy drinks and great server!! 100/10

Alexander and Martin made the best cocktails we've had in NYC. Vibe was the most inviting host. We can't wait to come back and try more unique drinks and food.

We really enjoyed the entire experience. Alex and Martin are wonderful people and great bartenders. Alex is mesmerizing to watch. Coming from Florida, we frequent NYC and have yet to find our “place”. But, tonight we’ve made a life long connection here. We will be back many, many more times. Thank you!

A speakeasy hiding on the basement, it’s pretty dark and cozy. The seating is a bit strange if you have a larger group. The service was a bit odd, maybe our waiter was too much in the character.

There are some interesting options for drinks. We are a party of three all got different drinks, so I tried three, personally I didn’t like any of them. The drinks looks very fun, with fun decor and dry ice. But they don’t actually taste good and the portion is a bit small for the price tag.

One of the best nights I have ever had in NYC. Bartenders Martin, Alex and Vibe are the most creative bartenders. We asked for customized drinks by giving them stories, flavors and the choice of alcohols. Turned out, the drinks were made to perfection. From the ingredients, to the flavor and to the presentation, everything amazed me. Definitely worth the experience.

We were bar hopping and decided to end our night in the Thyme bar. The best decision! It’s also my first time giving out such big amount of tips.

See you guys in 2 weeks!!

What a place. The cocktails are unique, but the atmosphere is familiar - welcoming, positive, and comfortable. Thank you Vibe for your energy, Alexander for your creativity and vision, and Martin for your professionalism. Definitely worth a visit!

Honestly, it was much better with the old tasting menu when you were able to pick 2 cocktails, a small dish and a dessert.

I can see what the place was going for with the new tasting menu, but 1) timing was all over the place (we had to wait for too long multiple times, even when waitress was saying she’ll be back with the next round in 2 minutes) 2) food is luxurious, but since you can’t pick anymore - it will be a matter of taste, and some combinations are unusual but not pleasant for everyone 3) 2 out of 3 cocktails were unique which is good but the 007 was not as inspiring 4) starter with non-alcoholic beverages is lackluster in comparison to previous Prosecco clams

We also ordered a drink each (4 people) after the tasting menu, and they were just not as unique and interesting as before.

This place was great, I’ve been here 3 times before, but unfortunately if it continues in this direction I don’t think I’ll be drawn to come back.
