Help us make it rightClean, swank bar in SoHo with unbelievably creepy antler light fixtures.
Friendly and unpretentious - the Anchor Bar has a mission statement that might be music to the ears of jaded New York night life veterans. It's a fun, lively spot to dance (the bar's popularity means that it can get pretty crowded) , the drinks flow nicely (if a little expensively) and there's a chance to do some celebrity-spotting. Drop your anchor here; you might not be leaving for a while.

The Anchor is just what New York City's increasingly stale nightlife scene needed! Voted best new bar/lounge of 2007 by Paper Magazine, The Anchor was started by a team made up of: publicist Amanda Silverman, designers Chrissie...
In Short
Like a cross between a bordello and a queen's bed chambers, this lounge's luxurious design is worthy of royalty. Golden mirrors, cushy rugs and deep red walls glint in the flickering light of candelabra candeliers, and…
Power publicist and interor designer duo open a nautically themed bar for their extended rolodexes. Just got a sea sick re-design from Rafael Cardenas, man responsible for Parker Posey's drapes. Stripes, presidential wallpaper, antlers keep it haute white trash, concrete dancefloor keeps it sweaty. Drea DeMatteo, Johnny Knoxville and the Ronsons here on the regular. Be wary of face plants after...
In Short
What's in a name? The Anchor's nautical theme gets flexed with stretches of American eagle wallpaper and rope-wrapped poles, while the wood veneer and antler chandeliers suggest...
I really have no excuse as to why I've never been to The Anchor. This is literally one of the few bumpin' places in my hood. Although I have never stepped...
found ourselves strolling on the far west
end of Spring Street one saturday evening
as we stumbled upon a tiny spot that, due to
its storefront almost appeared to look closed.
Once we walked in it was far from closed. We had

music the best ever had in NYC. Much fun in...
Okay, went here on Saturday, (11-9-13) and this place WAS OVER CROWDED AND I MEANNNNN ITTT! This place was so crowded that it was jam packed to the point...

Had an amazing time here at a Tribeca Film Festival after party and after hearing their DJs and loving the overall vibe, decided to do my birthday here the following week. Was not disappointed. From the initial reservation to arriving, Jason the manager was cool and super-accommodating. We got an area on the dancefloor and all of my guests danced and partied with no trouble getting in or anything. Nothing but good things to say about this place! look forward to going back soon.
Since 2010, Anchor has been providing Retail - Bar (drinking Places) from New York.
“When you can’t get into Sway”, there’s always this “unpretentious”, nautically decorated alternative across the street that’s either “supercrowded” or “dead”, depending on the night; the main drawbacks are the Hudson Square address (“practically in New Jersey”) and bathroom lines “longer than those at a Prada sample sale.”

Know Before You Go: There's no guest list to guarantee entrance--so make sure you look like one of the bold and the beautiful.
Make note of the address, the graffiti-tagged door is unmarked except for a small anchor above it. But the lack of signage doesn't mean this place is exclusive. For once, the staff forgoes with shenanigans at the door. You and your friends don't have to be on the list (or be scantily clad models) to get in.
Given the divey chic vibe, it's not surprising that Johnny Knoxville has been spotted here. He even recorded the Anchor's voicemail message (too bad it got erased!).
The chalkboard behind the bar lists drinks and is good for a laugh, but unless you want a Weasel (two parts Bourbon, one part juice, one part angst, and dust) or a Hill Billy (Kool Aid and vodka), ask the bartender for a cocktail suggestion.
