"The Jeffrey is the ultimate uptown utility bar. This spot on the border of Midtown East and the Upper East Side has 30 beers on tap - most of which are rare ones that will impress your friend who experiments with different types of hops in his home brew unit - as well as some very good bar food, like bacon-wrapped dates and a lamb burger with cumin mayo and mint yogurt. They also serve some very unusual cocktails, and they have a very nice backyard." - matt tervooren
