Mercer

• Features: Patio/Sidewalk Dining

Description

Mercer is one of those perfect hideaway spots, a place that's impossible to find unless it's your explicit destination. But the lounge's secluded nature comes from more than its obscure location. Aside from the open dance floor by the bar, the building is practically a maze of dark, candle-lit and mirror-lined hallways that lead to small seating clusters, a back bar and private back room. The place has an almost sultry allure, and it's easy to imagine ritzy clouds of people enjoying bottles and cocktails in dark corners, secrets whispered into ears, and not-so-secret kisses being stolen. An outdoor patio awaits those who need a smoke or want a little extra light for their drinking.
