The Nexus of the Universe

  • Best Location Ever
  • Great Food & Liqour Selection
  • Friendly East Village Vibe

Situated at the boundary of the East Village and The Lower East Side. A spot famously deemed "The Nexus of the Universe". One and One truly provides a blend of all that one would want from such a location. This bar captures the moment from the minute it opens with outdoor seating during the warm months, which provides ample people-watching, to the everyday happy hour menu which stretches into the evenings, an extensive selection of liquors, beers & wines to wet the palette of a fair drinker to the real connoisseur, it's obvious why this bar attracts a very diverse clientele. One and One blends and adopts depending on the mood of the crowd, whether watching an early sporting event on one of several flat screen TV's, dimming lights and louder music later in the evening (the most awesome selection by the way) allowing young and old to get into the groove.

Editorial Review for One and One – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
One-time Tramps owner Terry Dunne returns to his Irish roots with this sleek yet casual homage to the homeland--but one that shuns all the trappings of the typical pub and creates a bar modeled after those of fashionable Dublin. A young Irish staff is on hand to pour pints of Guinness--which are left to settle for the requisite (and respectful) five minutes--but the boisterous weekend crowd is more likely to stick to vodka-sodas and SoCo lime shots. If the scene grows tiresome, there's another whole party in the swank basement lounge, Nexus, where dancing and mingling abound.

Hits: A friendly door policy means you and crew won't be interrogated, no matter the guy to girl ratio.

Misses: Get in line for the bathroom before you really have to go--by the time it's your turn, you will.

I've been here several times, either to catch a bite with some friends or get miraculously trashed, often at the same time! This place is great and has a large enough space to accomodate large groups. The service is always very attentive, and not only will they take confusing food orders, but they will also do well at confusing short and drink combo orders too! Even better is the downstairs area which turns into a club, although frequently for an 18+ crowd which makes me feel freakishly old. Otherwise a great place to hang out at and a great places to enjoy a pint or enjoy dream enducing rounds of shots. I recommend trying the buffalo burger!

It's an Irish bar in the East Village. There was plenty of room for our expanding group-- and no one complained! The service was friendly, if a bit forgetful. (Seems like anyone who ordered Stella was immediately on the "forget me" list. I think it's because it was an Irish bar and Stella was too mainland Europe.) The food was typical bar food, though the Buffalo Wings had a much better than usual kick to 'em. The open floor to ceiling windows really helped the space feel like the outdoors. --Drink Club is a roving group of NYC drinkers

Pros: friendly service, great wings, space to expand

Cons: forgetful staff
