Bandits, The New Spot From The Garret Team, Brings 1970s Vibes To The West Village
All
On a recent evening in the West Village, one of those perfect summer-is-right-around-the-corner evenings just before sunset, a crowd of cool kids munched on smothered tater tots and burgers, washed down by cocktails that would feel at home in a Jimmy Buffett song, while locals assessed the fresh setup and revamp of a beloved neighborhood watering hole.
It was the opening preview of Bandits, the new sure-to-be hot spot from Den Hospitality, the team behind the Garret Bars. Named for their brand's familiar raccoon mascot, Bandits channels 1970s diner and dive vibes with glamorously retro interiors and a must-try menu that hasn't forgotten to pay homage to the location's former haunt, Daddy-O.
