Please Don't Tell
New York, New York
How do you manage to be famous and secret at the same time? If you're Please Don't Tell, it's easy. Located inside Crif Dogs, this hidden bar is considered one of the best in the world — which is good, because it's not the easiest place to get into. Once you've made your reservations and shown up at the restaurant, you need to find the old-fashioned phone booth, pick up the phone, and press the buzzer once. A voice will answer, and assuming you actually made reservations like we told you to, a wall of the booth will open up, letting you into the bar. Inside, you'll find fantastic cocktails, a cozy environment, and some stylish taxidermy — including our favorite, the jackalope.
