Finally made it over to Doris and it didn’t disappoint! I really enjoyed the southwestern/cowboy vinyls that were playing, alongside a spicy drink. Also, the backyard is spacious and tranquil.

I really liked the atmosphere here - beautiful interior design and a spacious backyard. Great spot for a low-key night or a date. The cocktails are okay but nothing super special. The bartenders were pretty friendly, except for that one time where one of the bartenders told us to "pipe down" because we were being loud in the backyard . Not sure how loud we were but i don't think it was above normal noise level lol

Great spot for a date, almost everyone there on a Tuesday night seemed like they were on a date. Very relaxed and comfortable for a drink with a friend or two also. Good cocktails for a good price. Mostly full around 9pm which was fun on a weeknight. Limited food options so worth noting if you are coming on an empty stomach.

Doris is such a quaint bar! They have a great drink menu, the backyard is absolutely lovely, and the interior is equally as nice. Fantastic place to fly solo, share with a date, or have a group hang, just get there early to snag a table!

Great spot! I was lucky enough to find this place just bc it's right next to my Airbnb and I'm glad I did. Really great atmosphere at night and was a good spot to read and journal by myself on my first true night in New York
