The 14 Best Bars On The Upper East Side - New York - The Infatuation

"The Penrose is from the same people who own The Wren, and like that Noho bar, it's almost always crowed. This nice-looking pub is one of the few spots on the UES where you’ll find something resembling a scene, so it’s perfect for when you want to have a good cocktail and wind up talking to a stranger who went to school with your cousin. There are plenty of food options, including fried pickles, a burger, and steak fajitas." - Bryan Kim, Matt Tervooren, Neha Talreja
