Great beer taps / great bargains / great owners

by mikeynj1701

I discovered Teneleven quite by accident while looking for a place to grab a beer waiting on my best bud before we went to dinner. I was immediately smitten upon meeting Robert. His friendly demeanor, knowledge of craft beer and his being a sci-fi geek made me feel like I was hanging and drinking with an old friend, not a bartender/owner I had just met.

Even if your not into craft beer how can you beat a place that offers a "red neck special", a can of PBR coupled with a shot of Jim Beam?

The atmosphere is warm and friendly. The walls are adorned with the works of local artists. Eclectic bands/acts can be found in the back room. The place is, in a word, cool.

  • Pros: Beer selection, Friendliness, Atmosphere
  • Cons: no bar snacks

An Abundance of Amusing Antics!!

by MichelleTheCanuck

We discovered Teneleven on a recent trip to NYC and it was one place, with all the hundreds of places to go, that we kept going back to!

The owner welcomed us from the get go and made us feel right at home. Drinks were liberally poured and there was always something fun going on - from a mini stringband jamboree to funky dance parties. We met some great people there!! They have lots of cool events planned to suit all tastes. All in all a really great place to hang out!

Thanks Robert!

best bloody in the city

by havenjezreal

Not only is an excellent bloody mary made here, but on Sundays its make your own! After choosing from a number of available vodkas, including some amazing in-house infusions, you make your way to the "bloody mary bar." Here you will find a variety of tomato bases and a ridiculous number of spices, vegetables, and garnishes.

In addition to the fun of creating your own masterpiece, is the environment itself. ten-eleven serves as a local art gallery, featuring an ever-rotating exhibition. The musicians and dj's that come to the bar's stage are also noteworthy.

All this, and ten-eleven is a bar. With all the good things that the word entails.

love this place.

Great Bar in the East Village

by citilivin

A group of us were out walking around the East Village last Friday afternoon and came across Teneleven. What a great find! The drinks were really good, cheap and they have really creative specialty drinks like "Britney's Shame" and they even have JELLO Shots! So much fun! The bartenders were great and the bar was decorated with original paintings from local artists. I guess they have art openings and live music all the time too. We were only planning on going in for a drink but ended up staying for several hours. The atmosphere is so chill that we felt like were hanging out a friend's house which I totally miss doing since we all now live in tiny apartments. We will definitely be back soon!

  • Pros: Drinks, bartender, atmosphere
  • Cons: none
