Lonely Planet review

Once upon a time, city officials divided Manhattan into wards - the Lower East Side was the 'Whiskey Ward,' courtesy of its many drinking establishments. Modern owners of The Whiskey Ward apparently appreciate history as much as they adore single malts, rye whiskey, blended Scotch, Irish whiskey and Bourbon. And their patrons, a sleek and sexy mix of all ages, enjoy the single-mindedness of this brick-walled bar.
