"Above a burger place, brassy swing tunes filled a private room located behind a vault door and up an old staircase, left over from when the building was a bank." So says The New York Times upon entering Garfunkel's - a hidden Roaring '20s-style sanctuary whose Tea With The Duchess experience results in a sensation for your senses.
Grab your $95 pulse (a $136 value) for Tea With The Duchess, a Champagne Afternoon Tea For Two that includes a Multi-Tiered Tray Featuring A Curated Selection of Seasonal Savory & Sweet Eats, 2 Bottomless Pots of Tea, 2 Glasses of Champagne.
"A cozy new speakeasy" and "the most intimate bar in New York City" according to The New Yorker, Garfunkel's is a jewel nestled above The Burgary. Settle in amidst Victorian décor, gold elements, purple velvet, and a stately collection of books, sipping glasses of Champagne and readying your palate for a procession of deliciousness.
Expect freshly-made sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and preserves, not to mention a variety of cakes and pastries, all served with your choice of tea all served on beautiful vintage China. Think Lavender Early Gray sided by seasonal savories, as well as sweets like macarons, cupcakes, and so much more.
Treat yourself to this luxurious adventure, and dive into total indulgence...
Established in 2015, Garfunkel's speakeasy owes its name to the felonious private bankers-turned-criminal fugitives, Garfunkel & Tauster, who originally used the location as their corrupt bank firm in the 1920's. To remind guests of the building's exciting history, a functional bank vault door is used as the entrance into the wonderful Gatsby-esque speakeasy.
Repping an exclusive, nostalgic vibe and a drinks program designed by the multi-talented, New York Times-acclaimed bartender & beverage consultant Lucinda Sterling (Milk & Honey, Petraske’s Little Branch, Middle Branch and Seaborne), expect top notch tipples to balance your feast of scrumptious eats.
Champagne bubbles will fill your palate as you cuddle up to sophistication with a nod to the past. Cozy up to velvet benches & deep armchairs as you admire the curated scene. Think coffered ceilings, antique pictures, soft lighting from vintage laps, a wall lined with books, and the like, setting the stage for a classy soirée.
Free-flowing teas come from a collection of seasonally-sourced, hand-picked leaves. Standouts include the Mint Everest that's like a breath of fresh air, or the Toasted Coconut Oolong, among other sensational blends.
For your fare, your taste buds will delight in a multi-tiered tray overflowing with seasonally-inspired tea sandwiches, scones with cream & homemade preserves, savory surprises, petit four creations, and then some.
Tea lovers, Champagne chases, gourmands - this is a divine weekend experience you simply cannot miss...
