In a town where new and re-opened bars pop up every day, Poco Bar breaks onto the scene with only a whisper, but makes a huge impression. For being open less than a week, Poco has already developed a unique vibe with a slightly Spanish feel, a hint of mystery and sexiness, yet all the comfort of your local tavern. The staff are extremely welcoming from the attractive and conversational bar staff to the Saturday night DJ who spun amazing dance music and mingled with the crowd asking for requests. Take advantage of their tapas menu and the delish red or white sangria, served fresh even on a busy Saturday night. A downstairs dance lounge is scheduled to open within a month which will solidify the currently laid back Poco Bar as having the best of both worlds and put it on the fast track to becoming a staple of East Village nightlife.
