Lonely Planet review for Bill's Gay Nineties

Don't let the name fool you – the clientele at this bar are generally as straight as they come. It's all about the Roaring Twenties at Bill's, the decade when original owner Bill Hardy converted the ground floor of his brownstone into a speakeasy. Bill's still retains its illicit aura, in part because you have to traverse hand-carved swinging doors to reach the cavernous inner sanctum, with its high beams, low lights and numerous boxing and racing pictures. It's a great place to unwind, grab a drink and make a new friend.
