Ye’s Apothecary

Ye's Apothecary is a Chinese speakeasy and tapas bar tucked along Orchard Street in New York's Lower East Side. The space leans into an artistic, intimate atmosphere with Asian-themed decor that gives it a distinctive vintage character. Guests have praised the cocktails for being bold and inventive, and the small bites, including salted egg yolk tofu and garlic prawns, have drawn consistent applause. The cozy, candlelit setting suits both group hangouts and happy hour visits, with a full bar to anchor the evening. The bar is open Tuesday through Sunday starting at 5 PM.
