Here’s how many NYC spots were among the world’s 50 best bars: ‘Cocktail wizardry comes to life’

This calls for a toast!

Four Manhattan hotspots were ranked among the 50 best bars in the world, tying London and Singapore for the most gin mills mentioned.

Double Chicken Please on the Lower East Side was No. 14 on the annual World’s 50 Best Bars list; Overstory in the Financial District was right behind in 15th place; Martiny’s in Union Square placed 24th; and Superbueno in the East Village took 27th.

This year marked the third time Double Chicken Please earned a spot on the list and was the first time Martiny’s, opened in 2022, and Superbueno, opened in 2023, entered the contest.

“Another year to be grateful for, thank you for all the love and support,” Double Chicken Please, which is known for cocktails like Cold Pizza ($21) and Thai Curry ($22), posted on Instagram.

It ranked No. 2 in North America; last year, it was ranked No. 1 on the continent.

The Lower East Side spot, also known for its fried chicken sandwiches, has a casual front room that is walk-in only and a back room that takes reservations, which open six days ahead at midnight.

“True to its name, Double Chicken Please offers a double dose of innovative concepts,” the judges wrote, adding that in the back room is where the “cocktail wizardry comes to life.”

In addition to what the 50 Best panel described as “a cocktail list grounded in earthy, herbal flavors,” the 24-seat bar at Overstory, located on the 64th floor of an Art Deco skyscraper on Pine Street, is known for wraparound views of the New York City skyline.

“This achievement stands as a result of the tireless work of the entire Overstory team,” the group wrote on Instagram.

“Old New York luxury marries Japanese precision and technique at Martiny’s,” reads the entry for the Union Square spot.

The judges noted the “unparalleled attention to detail” including hot towels and carved ice at the three-level establishment, which is located in a renovated 1800s carriage house on East 17th Street. Bar snacks were created by Wayne Cheng of Eleven Madison Park and Masa.

“If you love martinis, this is your home,” read one review. “Yes, the drinks are going to be expensive because it’s NYC.”

“We strive to give the best experience to all our guests and are so happy for it to be acknowledged,” Martiny’s founder Takuma Watanabe told The Post. “We do not take this lightly and will continue to work on every detail of our service, cocktails, and food to show Martiny’s is deserving of this.”

At the Mexican-American Superbueno, bartenders sling cocktails including the vodka y soda, roasted corn sours and mushroom margaritas.

“Thank you to 50 Best Bars for recognizing our team’s dedication to creating deliciously festive experiences rooted in Mexican hospitality,” the 1st Avenue spot, which also received the London Essence Best New Opening Award this year, shared on Instagram.

No. 1 on the list, sponsored by Perrier, was Handshake Speakeasy in Mexico City.

It was first published in 2009 and is judged by renowned and confidential bartenders and consultants, drinks writers and cocktail specialists.
