Friendly Persuasion at Friend's tavern
Felt at home immediately I walked in. An easy-on-the-eyes bartender greeted me as if he'd known me forever. Has an odd shape, not very wide, but the place is long, very deep. There's a happy hour, four hours. Some lovely Latin guys were hanging out, and I couldn't take my eyes off them. Nice place, indeed. No attitude, no hassles, well worth a trip to Queens from Manhattan.
