Sweet Liberty Drinks & Supply Company

Consider this the perfect spot for some late-night eats following all of those Art Week parties. While Sweet Liberty might be best known for its world-renowned cocktails, its food menu should never be looked over as it’s just as good at the beginning of the night as it is at the end. The highlight are the cauliflower nachos by James Beard Award winner Michelle Bernstein, which says on the menu that they serve two but sharing with a crowd is optional. The burger is a can’t-miss, too. Bonus: the kitchen is open until 4 a.m. nightly.
