Worth it
Oozing French bistro vibes, the bar feels relaxed and welcoming, I think it’s a great spot to catch up with friends.
What I wrote thereFold it away
Goodnight Sonny is one of the best East Village bars for happy hour, especially if you love oysters ($18 for a dozen). It’s easy to assume that the neighborhood is reserved for dive bars and speakeasies exclusively, but Goodnight Sonny doesn’t check either box.
Instead, I’d consider this a regular cocktail bar. Airy and bright, the large windows flood the space with natural light in the daytime, replaced by candles after sunset to shift the mood for the intimate evening crowd.
