The Beastie Boys Take it Back to the Old School . . . Hopefully!
Location: Midtown West, NYC
Band: The Beastie Boys
Venue: Terminal 5
Food: Whistlin’ Dixie’s Texas Tavern
Drink: Druids
Miscellaneous: Ruby et Violette
Though the Beastie Boys have revisited playing instrumental on their recent album “The Mix Up,†expect them to throw down some old-school rhymes too at Terminal 5. With different drink specials for every day of the week and a Tex-mex menu, you’re almost guaranteed a good time at Whistlin’ Dixie’s Texas Tavern. The atmosphere here is fun and the food and drink aren’t expensive. With a beautiful backyard patio for dining and a menu featuring American and Irish faves like sirloin burgers ($8) and Guinness Beef Tenderloin Stew ($19), Druids is a great neighborhood bar in a less than great neighborhood. Specializing in cookies, Ruby et Violette makes some amazing and inventive kinds like the traditional chocolate chunk and toffee with vanilla chunks.
