Speakeasy

32 E 32nd St, New York, NY 10016

Arcade style

I'm a massive fan of this place. First off, it's hidden inside Hotel 32 32.

Once inside the hotel, you'll have to find Sushi By Bou.

Bou runs a few other speakeasies in the US, all under his namesake.

But the sushi spot isn't the speakeasy, it's actually behind Sushi by Bou itself - and it's called the Partea Lab.

It's, for lack of a more eloquent term, an absolute blast.

Claw machines, neon lights - practically a full arcade.

It breaks the traditional aesthetic of most speakeasies in such a fun way. It reminds me a bit of a few other speakeasies in town: 929 and 56709.

You'll enjoy yourself, and the prices were extremely reasonable given it's prime location.
