replying to u/brigadeiro1254: Ok, I've been on three separate occasions — spaced many months apart — and the subterranean space always smells so strongly of mildew or perhaps mold!!! And I have a nonexistent sense of smell due to allergies... I truly don't understand what's going on and why they won't address the issue. I have not, however, been to the penthouse— perhaps that is newer? TLDR: stick to the Chinatown location! The vibes are also otherwise superior.
“It smells so nasty. The rooftop is great though and I enjoyed the drinks.”

replying to u/zoobooze: Haha I love this, such different opinions. For both Apotheke's and GOTO every cocktail we got was astonishingly good. I'm a sucker for Asian influenced cocktail culture as well. Patent Pending has one of the coolest spaces in the City, and the cocktails were good for sure, but nothing blew me away. The original Angel Share was tied with Mace for being my favorite cocktail bar in the City, but we went to the new location where I believe the daughter runs things now and it wasn't nearly as good in my opinion. Martiny's, I understand was opened by the head bartender of Angel Share, and the cocktails were good, but I did not think they justified $25+ price tag that came with a lot of them - still a great bar though.
“Apotheke Nomad was better but I didn't particularly like the drinks I got.”

“there are dozens of places with rooftop bars in Manhattan that will be leaps and bounds better than a bar at a Hard Rock Hotel. Try The Skylark, Top of the Strand, Bar Hugo, Dear Irving on Hudson, or Apotheke NoMad.”

replying to u/personaljournal325: Apotheke Nomad does have a rooftop, but it's not very high up... more like a balcony. Drinks are pretty good though
“agree the drinks are solid”

replying to u/Flashy_Complex_1412: Ok I thought I went on an off night. It smells so nasty. The rooftop is great though and I enjoyed the drinks.
“I kept returning thinking they'd eventually be forced to address the issue. That has not, unfortunately, proven to be the case.”
