NT, Which are your favorite college bars in Manhattan? Which neighborhood(s) have the best cluster of bars where it's easy to just bar hop? Those that include good environment, music, hot chicks, and specials?

i.e. Turtle Bay.

Would like to learn about more and discover new ones. Please be specific with names and streets.

I usually hit the west village, midtown, or go to Brooklyn for the Williamsburg area.

Continental is a good place to start off the night in the village. 5 shots of whatever you want for $10. Good music, ok girls. Then we either wander around St. Marks Place or go uptown or to BK.
 
the 13th step (pong, great crowd, good music)
turtle bay
continental (strictly for pregaming/shots)
off the wagon
 
phebes and that place across the street from it usually get the college/summer intern crowd. Long lines but I feel like that's standard for that sort of bar
 
Hair on the dog, Fat Baby, Tonic East, 1015 - Sutton Place

LES, LES, Murray Hill, Midtown East are the locations.

What school do you go to? What year are you?

Never saw it that packed before.. They close at 2 anyway, all they're good for is shots to pregame
 
There's a place on 14th and 1st where there's a good number of nyu/Baruch students on occasion
 
Off the Wagon...

continental is racist b. I'll forever boycott that bar.

Can cosign on Continental for pregaming (shots for days) and Off The Wagon for Saturday DayDrink's. On Saturday's at Off the Wagon it's $5 pitchers at noon and the price goes up 50 cents every hour. Been to The 13th Step, but it was so packed and took like 30 minutes to get a drink.

That's all off the top of the dome and should allow you to get your beak wet, especially for Football Sundays here in the city (You can catch me at Hair of the Dog or Bounce 21 on Sundays)
 
Need a review for Amnity Hall. Attending a b-day party, $40 open bar.


Place looks okay. Good area. 40$ open bar is solid deal. Most likely not top shelf liquor but considering a Vodka Soda at most places is 8-10 bucks you will get your money's worth.
