Description
Established by the McLaughlin family in 1986, this Carnegie Hill mainstay acts as a transportive neighborhood escape. Inside, the space channels the polished, breezy aesthetic of a coastal Bermuda or New England yacht club, offering a distinct break from the Manhattan pavement. The kitchen focuses on classic coastal fare driven by locally sourced ingredients, drawing a steady crowd for casual lunches, family dinners, and evening drinks at the bar.
