Bathtub Gin - City of New York

The atmosphere and cocktails at BathTub Gin were both great, however, I was very disappointed by the service. Our party had a reservation for 9:45pm but we did not sit down at our table until 10:25pm because we were waiting for service. First, we waited in a line outside the venue while the bouncer argued with the party in front of us because they were late for their reservation. Then, we waited inside the venue for an additional 15 minutes just waiting to be acknowledged by the hostess. All in all, when we sat down to the table, it was 10:25. At that point, the hostess informed us that they had another party coming and need our table at 11:00pm and so they would try to find us a another table to move to at that time. The staff was unable to find another table for us, so we only had the table from 10:25 until 11pm, even though we had a reservation and complained to management. The cocktails were delicious but overall, this was a very disappointing experience. I would not go back.

Seating was terrible. They crammed us in on a bench shoulder to shoulder with other people. Left before ordering our first drink.

If you have a strong affinity for gin, Bathtub Gin is a pretty good option. It billed itself as a speakeasy, and while the entrance is indeed unmarked, the vibes inside are much closer to a conventional bar. It was extremely busy and almost impossible to carry a conversation due to the sound. Likely won't return.

Beautiful speakeasy. Setting and vibes are definitely timely. Went there for an industry night, crossover with a nice uptown cocktail bar. Burlesque show was on that night, which was beautiful. Drinks are pricey but i feel everyone needs to go there at least once.

Small bar/ speakeasy with a line in the front that I would not wait for ever so we came back later after midnight and it was half empty but it had a great vibe! Place is definitely original with its bath tubs in the middle of the main room and in the bathroom. Great service in the bathrooms. Drinks were great! Barman was a bit reserved but it was already closing time. We sat at the bar and had a good time.
