Liam's: If the recent name change—from Exchange Bar & Lounge to Liam’s—was intended to mirror this Financial District watering hole's recent renovations, then it’s spot on. Out came everything reminiscent of a lounge, and in went all the trademarks of an NYC Irish pub: Shepherd's Pie, check. Irish flags, check. Rows of plasma TVs, check. Guinness on tap, check check. The kind of place the suits can rely on when they want a casual joint that's not a dive, Liam's serves up typical pub fare and a generous selection of drafts. In the near future, a basement space will be unveiled to allure the entry-level set with pool and beer pong. A neighborhood bar in a 'hood with no real neighbors, the after-work crowd will get no surprises—just a solid happy hour (25 cent wings, $3 domestic beers), a jukebox full of American classics and a place to check the scores. If that sounds like your scene, you’ll find your pot o'gold at Liam’s. |
