Bar Margot

Bar Margot, the upscale bar and lounge inside The Four Seasons in Midtown, is named after Margot of The Royal Tenenbaums and the vibe matches the movie’s retro, swanky aesthetic with its velvet and leather couches, dim lighting, and innovative cocktails. Try the Gin Margot, a take on a gin and tonic, with preserved lime and Thai basil. The bar’s zero-proof cocktails are also worth noting—the Essentially is refreshing, made with preserved grapefruit, lavender, and bubbles. There are plenty of food options to munch on including Beef Tartare, Margot Deviled Eggs, and Cheese and Charcuterie. The bar is also home to a vinyl library with more than 10,000 records on deck, so swing by on Friday and Saturday nights when a DJ spins from the extensive library.

Located inside the Four Seasons, this bar is super stylish and has an on-point lunch and dinner menu. Swing by Bar Margot on Friday and Saturday nights, when a DJ spins selections from a vinyl library from 9 pm until midnight. Bar Margot’s musical library spans nearly 10,000 records and includes a wide-ranging list of artists, which makes for an ideal icebreaker.

Located in the Four Seasons hotel, Bar Margot is a swanky cocktail bar that impressively manages to be both posh and welcoming. In addition to its accommodating staff and a stellar cocktail menu, part of Bar Margot’s charm is rooted in its desire to make the hotel bar familiar and inviting again. It pulls this off by creating an environment that isn’t too regal to host the occasional live music event and other community-centered soirees.
