Dante NYC

Dante is a historic Italian café and cocktail bar in Greenwich Village at 79-81 MacDougal Street, an institution since 1915 that was named World's Best Bar by The World's 50 Best Bars in 2019. Originally a gathering place for Italian immigrants, the café-bar now operates under Australian hospitality duo Linden Pride and Nathalie Hudson, offering all-day service including artisanal coffee, pastries, aperitivo, antipasti, and seasonal produce-driven cuisine. The interior blends classic European charm with modern elegance through white marble countertops, vintage photographs, warm wood accents, and soft lighting. The celebrated cocktail menu reimagines classics with precision and flair, most notably its award-winning Negroni variations, establishing Dante as a cornerstone of modern bartending culture.
