Please Don’t Tell (PDT) is a renowned speakeasy-style cocktail bar located in New York City's East Village. Established in 2007, PDT has been credited with pioneering the modern speakeasy movement, influencing cocktail culture across the United States. Access to PDT is through an unmarked phone booth inside Crif Dogs, a hot dog joint at 113 St. Marks Place. Patrons enter the booth, pick up the receiver, and dial a number to be granted entry into the bar. Inside, PDT offers an intimate atmosphere with a capacity of around 45 guests. The interior features exposed brick walls, a wooden ceiling, and eclectic taxidermy decor. The bar is known for its expertly crafted cocktails, including the Benton’s Old Fashioned, made with bacon-infused bourbon. In addition to drinks, patrons can order gourmet hot dogs from Crif Dogs through a small window connecting the two establishments. PDT has received numerous accolades, including a James Beard Award for Outstanding Bar Program in 2012 and a spot on The World's 50 Best Bars list in 2011. Reservations are highly recommended and can be made through their website or via Resy. Walk-ins may be accommodated based on availability.
