The Lab at Patent Pending.

Serving some of the most exciting cocktails in Manhattan, the Lab is all about creativity. I’m partial to the Suspicions of Espionage (Peruvian Pisco, Single Malt Scotch, wildflower, passion fruit and egg white) and the Radio Waves (Tequila, Mezcal, basil, Thai chile, lime and cucumber).

The Lab at Patent Pending takes inspiration from the building’s most famous resident, Nikola Tesla. Accessed through a hidden door in a café, marked only by a sign reading ‘Patent Pending,’ the bar transports you into a world that echoes Tesla’s inventions and electrical experiments.

The Lab’s cocktail menu is neatly categorized into themes like ‘Energy’ ‘Vibration’ and ‘Frequency.’ If you’re looking for suggestions, I’m partial to the Suspicions of Espionage (Peruvian Pisco, Single Malt Scotch, wildflower, passion fruit and egg white) and the Radio Waves (Tequila, Mezcal, basil, Thai chile, lime and cucumber).
