BEST NEW BAR BAR CLACSON
This spot has answered the prayers of Downtown imbibers seeking a watering hole that isn’t a speakeasy, a dive bar or a nightclub. Bar Clacson has all the makings of your neighborhood Cheers but with French and Italian influences; it’s a place where you can show up as you are and get to know your bartenders, enjoy pieces of bruschetta with your beverage and play a game of pétanque (France’s version of bocce). Pretentiousness and indifference don’t exist among staff or patrons, which is a refreshing change from some of the neighborhood’s stuffier options. à 351 S Broadway (213-265-7477,
