ABV is riding the new wave of casual-serious bars with a laid back vibe and expert drinks. The bar’s shelves are lined with agave, and seemingly every edition of Del Maguey’s single-village mezcal collection. Composed of a team of veteran cocktail bartenders from Beretta and Dalva, ABV’s cocktail game is tight, but simple; you wont find dozen-ingredient drinks, just simple drinks organized by spirit. The short list of bar snacks is stellar, boasting everything from miniature fish and chips to chicken potpie empanadas.
