Located in Long Island City, the current hottest neighborhood in Queens, LIC Bar is a totally classic New York City watering hole with a real old-world feel. There’s no jukebox, but the bartenders are known to have great taste in music and are happy to accommodate any requests you may have. There’s also an open-air patio in the back, which makes it more attractive to the city’s smokers. And did we mention the bar is dog friendly?
