Where Bartenders Drink in New York City

New York's an exciting drinking town, full of creative cocktail dens, innovative wine and beer bars, and old-school dives. But where should you go when you're tired of the place that knows your name? We polled 14 of New York's top bartenders, including Joaquín Simó of Pouring Ribbons, Dan Greenbaum of The Beagle, Leo Robitschek of The Nomad, Maxwell Britten of Maison Premiere, and more to find out where we should drink when we want to drink like the pros. Check out their favorite bars for cocktails, beer, wine, jukeboxes, and Fernet in the slideshow above, or plan your bar crawl using the map below.
