Old Saloons Never Disappoint
Perhaps because I hit a bar because I want a couple--, well, okay, often more than a couple of beers, and not necessarily to hit up a guy, I look at a place like The Hangar from another prism of vision. It's exactly what it purports itself to be: a saloon, albeit a Gay saloon, but a saloon nonetheless. Friendly, welcoming, always a nice crowd at the bar, can argue, agree, whatever, on everything from politics to fashion. Nice back bar for the evening, when the crowd overflows. Elsewhere in NYC, the old-time saloon is giving way to boutiques and trendy wine bars, but places like The Hangar and others on Christopher Street, are keeping up the good fight. More power to them.
When in Rome
If you're bar hopping in the Village, I guess The Hangar is one of those that you must hit. It's friendly enough and there's always a pool game, but if you're looking for cute boys, keep on walkin'!
