Bar of the Week: THE HAROLD in Midtown

Penn Station Commuters, Herald Square shoppers and Midtown guests will be pleased to discover The Harold. Conveniently located on the South side of Greeley Square at 32nd Street, this American bistro has a cozy bar space and a warm welcoming atmosphere. It is a great place to retreat from the hustle and bustle of the area during the holiday season. The Harold is our our "Bar of the Week."

The beverage program includes specialty cocktails like the Old Oaxaca ($15), a nice south-of-the-border recipe that combines Mezcal, lime, and agave with egg white for a luscious taste. And their signature drink, The Harold ($14) is a perfect blend of gin, prosecco, germaine and lemon texture with chopped basil.

Raw bar specialties, and starters like their Flight of Dips ($12), Wild Caught Crispy Calamari ($12) and Grilled Chicken Skewers ($10) pair well with drinks. You can also enjoy their full lunch or dinner menu and weekend brunches.

Happy Hour ushers in the evening from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm Monday through Friday with specials on drinks, draft beers and wine by the glass. Happy Hour also features small plates that are well priced to enjoy with drinks. If you visit The Harold once, we suggest you will visit often.

The Harold is open for lunch, dinner and weekend brunch. Convenient to midtown and the theater district, they are located at 1271 Broadway (on 32nd Street), New York, NY 10001.
