January 13, 2011

Visit Art Bar in New York. Arrive in style when you hire a limousine service.

It’s cold outside! Why not warm up by the fire at one of these awesome NYC fireplace bars. Gather up some friends, hire a limousine service and create a fun night out of bar hopping so you can visit each one. Snowing outside? No problem, let the chauffeur handle the driving and you and your friends concentrate on having an awesome night out.

Art Bar: This bar offers large curvy booths, overstuffed couches and plush ottomans surrounding a brick fireplace with a gas flame. Check out paintings by local artists and order from an eclectic drink list including a Smashing Pumpkin Pie Martini and Bakon Bloody Mary.

The Back Room: The cozy interior of this bar features a huge brick gas-powered fireplace surrounded by soft red velvet that covers the couches and walls. This place is perfect for a night out with friends, but beware, it gets pretty crowded on the weekends.

Camp: Snack on s’mores next to Camp’s wood-burning fireplace while sipping on a Thin Mint Cookie drink (a blend of hot chocolate and creme de menthe). The comfortable camping-themed lodge bar, featuring a taxidermied deer head and kayak, makes for a great place for an intimate gathering with your buddies.

During the holiday season in New York City, the window displays of many stores become very elaborate and festive. Many of them are holiday themed and are a sight to see without even entering the store. Famous New York City stores like Henri Bendel, Bergdorf Goodman and Barneys all participate in this enchanting tradition. The best way to see them all in one day is to hire a limousine service. You can drink champagne in the company of friends and admire the festive displays without braving the chilly weather. Here are the top displays you need to visit.

Barneys: 660 Madison Ave between 60th and 61st Streets. Each window is a totally different scene. Our favorite is a woman decorating a Christmas tree made of gift bags. It’s a perfect mix of sparkling silver and bold red colors will surely get you in the Christmas spirit.

Lord & Taylor: 424 Fifth Ave at 39th Street. These window displays are miniature doll-house scenes of New York City. If you look closely in the windows of your town houses, you’ll see a holiday party taking place, decorating of a Christmas tree and more. This charming display is a must-see.

Bergdorf Goodman: 754 Fifth Ave at 58th Streets. The Bergdorf holiday displays are full of intricate details that you have to experience for yourself. The scenes range from sailors, to a train station and each is full of personality, colors and details that you have to see to believe.
