Living in New York City, there are a few things you’ll probably never have: peace and quiet, a savings account, a backyard, and a fireplace. You’ll find at least one of those things at these bars. |
 |
 |
 |
Public: An entire room is centered around Public’s fireplace. While diners hang out in the back of this Aussie restaurant waiting for their tables, cocktailers come to get toasted and roasted. |
 |
 |
 |
Horus Café: Despite using logs as tables and chairs, this fascinating lounge isn’t afraid to tempt fate with a busy kitchen, hookahs that steam all night long, and an ornate fireplace. |
 |
 |
 |
Kili: It’s Aspen just off Atlantic Avenue here, where ornamental snowflakes and icicles surround Kili’s mini inferno. Despite the wood-burning heat, the vibe here is oh-so cool. |
 |
 |
 |
Bookmarks: One can almost picture a corduroy-clad Central Casting professor smoking a pipe, basset hound by his side, basking in the glow of the Library Hotel’s Bookmarks’ flame. |
 |
 |
 |
Lockinn: Lockinn didn’t exactly invent fire, but opening their fireplace-bearing bar far enough off Bedford Avenue to be a legitimate neighborhood joint is close enough for us. |
