The short answer
10 ranked rooms follow. How we picked is at the end of this guide.
Finding a bar for a group of 10 or more requires solving a different problem than finding a bar for 2 or 4. The question is not which bar has the best cocktails. The question is which bar has the physical infrastructure to keep 10 people in the same room, talking to each other, with drinks in hand, for 3 hours. We have the answer for New York and London.
New York's best bars for a group of 10 combine physical size with management experience. These venues have handled groups before, which means the service model adapts to larger tables, the bottle service and round options are clearly structured, and the staff know how to keep 10 people drinking without anyone waiting 20 minutes at the bar.
