Stitch has quickly become an after work oasis for midtown's workers and growing number of residents. An ideal event location and after dark local. This brand new bi-level 5,000sq ft venue has 19th Century tall ceilings with original moldings, a mezzanine bar & private party room, kitchen facilities, excellent AV for Garden Events including 4 Plasma & 1 Large Projection Video screens, real world drink prices and of course a hot music selection, on line jukebox (sans hip- hop), perfect for the starved fashion district scene desperate for a local to call their own.

The Scene
Grabbing a drink with co-workers in midtown usually means sipping a Bud in a humdrum Irish pub, but Stitch is here to change that. A lively alt-rock soundtrack--think U2 and Franz Ferdinand--heals the working-day blues in the main space. A menu of appetizers, pizzas and sandwiches relieves after-work munchies in the less chaotic mezzanine. The martini glasses are on the small side, but remarkably polite servers can whip up a well-mixed cosmo or a mean (though miniature) Manhattan.

The Draw
Located in stumbling distance from both Penn Station and the Port Authority, the crowd is commuter heavy--a friendly, backpack-toting, business-casual bunch. Sports fans enjoy the flat-screened TVs, but the gigantic monitors don't overpower the warehouse-like space. Deep-burgundy walls, a dark-wood bar, tall mirrors and copious candlelight add a little after-hours glamour to this office-laden part of town.
