vol de nuit, New York

Poorly marked and tucked away in the West Village's bustling West 4th Street, you'd think it would be difficult for a bar like Vol de Nuit to survive. That, however, doesn't take into consideration Belgian beer and great French fries. With dozens of beer choices from the great Belgian breweries and a menu that focuses solely on mussels and 'pommes frites,' Vol De Nuit feeds the soul with equal parts of starch, salt and mild buzz. The calming atmosphere with warmth provided by inviting wooden benches and soothing roseate lighting is a great backdrop for a conversation with a friend or flirtation with a future friend. It's considered one of the best beer bars in the great NYC surroundings; a unique mix of downtown lounge and Trappist monastery.
