My absolute favorite bar. They mix the drinks in the old style using different size ice cubes and raw eggs. Bartenders are very experienced and awesome. -Susie Brunet, Launch My Line Death & Co.

Time Out New York 10/5/11
Try the Sweet Hereafter. Swapping in pisco for gin, barkeep Joachim Simo takes the straightlaced martini for a sultry Latin American spin. It’s one of our #100best dishes and drinks of 2011.

One of the best cocktails I tried this year was at Death & Co. Gin, cinnamon, bark syrup, and chardonnay. It made a completely different taste and alchemy in my mouth. -Elizabeth Falkner, Top Chef M

Go before 7:30pm on Sundays through Wednesdays. Sit at the bar. Don't trust the doorman's time estimates if he puts your name down--it's very hard to predict when people will leave.

This 1920s-esque bar goes all out for the speakeasy feel with bow-tied bartenders, jazz tunes and kerosene lamps. While the drinks are mixed by experts, it gets pricey easily. BLOG ARTICLES
We like breaking the law. Well, not really. But we do like the idea of going against proper protocol and avoiding rules (as long as it doesn't get us into too much trouble). This is why East Village's Death & Co. is one of our favorite bars in the city. The dim light makes it a sexy spot for late night cocktails, while it's wooden decor keeps it classy. Death & Co. breathes Prohibition Era air with its quaint intimate feel. The mixologists will blow your mind away (and probably your taste buds too) with their alcohol concoctions. Perfectionists at heart, cocktails are mixed over and over again until bartenders deem them flawless. You can also share a punch bowl --with any alcohol or cocktail, which serves around 4 people. Spiced-up punch straight out from a high school dance anyone? (We told you, we like breaking laws!)
