Located behind a telephone booth inside of Crif Dogs, the
Located behind a telephone booth inside of Crif Dogs, the area was even smaller than I expected. Walked-in on a Thursday night and was put on a waitlist. Surprisingly we didn't wait long and was given a booth in about 20 minutes. Suntory time machine wasn't as strong as I thought it would be, which I liked. I didn't taste too much fig, but it was an easy drink that I wouldn't mind having again. Tried the Hanoi dog. Much smaller than I expected. The hot dog was okay. It had a nice bite. It didn't wow me too much. Spicier than I expected. Buns were soft. Seems like they rotate their offerings every so often. There's a QR code on the back of the drink menu that has a list of other drinks.
Gross place and decor is not remotely acceptable.
Don't recommend it for food or ambiance.
Such a great place.
Very unique entrance thru an old phone booth. The drinks were very expensive but it's NYC so I expected as much. But the service was epic and the bartender made cocktails tailored specifically to our tastes. I highly recommend you give this place a try if you're in the area.

Came here late night on a Saturday and they were able to seat us right away with no res! The entrance through the phone booth was really creative and promising, but the interior was actually a little underwhelming. Nothing too cool on the inside, but the music was really nice. Their drink selection was very intriguing and enormous. So many unique drinks to choose from! I ended up getting the Fountain Cobbler and it was really good! Pretty strong, but didn't have a heavy alcohol taste. Good for people who like the taste of root beer. This place was fun for the one time, but I probably would not go again.

Showed up to PDT at 5:30pm on a Saturday by myself and was lucky enough to snag a seat at the bar. I was promptly introduced to the amazing and wonderful Chloe who was so nice and welcoming. I told her that I usually drink margaritas on the sweeter side and if she could make me something with that information and Chloe did. not. disappoint. What she made me tasted so good. She made me a passionfruit cucumber margarita concoction and I was so pleased with it. It tasted so good. The ambiance was nice and dark and romantic. While the space is small I loved the intimacy and atmosphere of the place. The bar has hooks you can hang your things on because I had a book bag and a purse that I didn't want to be in the way and when I hung them up I barely remembered they were there. I was comfortable at the bar, not cramped or anything. I then asked Chloe if she'd be so kind to charge my phone behind the bar because I was at 13% and needed it to travel home. Chloe went above and beyond offering me a portable charger instead that allowed me to keep my phone with me and charged my phone SUPER FAST. I charged my phone for about an hour and left with 77%. Chloe then made me the Shark cocktail on the menu and it was delicious and tropical and I loved its blue color. I will definitely be coming back to PDT; both by myself and with friends !
Great atmosphere, a bit louder than anticipated for a
Great atmosphere, a bit louder than anticipated for a speakeasy, but the drinks were balanced, nice variety. They were a bit on the sweeter side for my husband and I, and I would say they weren't as delicate or unique as I've had at some other speakeasy cocktail bars, but it was a good time. The truffle fries are also a good snack to go with a couple of rounds of drinks.
Had a great time here.
I went a few years ago with my sisters, returned this weekend with my boyfriend. Fun drinks that all have a zillion components to them but all turn out more subtle than you think. Thoughts on some current menu items-- Paddington--a delightful light gin-based cocktail served up. Refreshing and uncomplicated, but not too sweet! Heart Of Glass--their current martini. This was so delicate, botanical, not astringent. All sorts of interesting things went into it that I no longer remember :D Black Diamond--a variation on an espresso martini and one of the best I've had in the city. I started off letting the bartender know some preferences and asking to be surprised. I didn't like the drink she made (not her fault I don't like star anise, and something in the drink had a similar essence). She was VERY cool about it and didn't mind making me something else. Hot dogs are great. Burger is possibly too expensive for what it is, but as a two-patty smash burger with La Frieda beef, I simply can't complain. Tater tots that were practically too hot to eat. Great experience.

Had a phenomenal time at PDT for a late night res (100% make a reservation). From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by the friendliest staff that made this experience so amazing. Not the mention, the entrance is so cool (I don't want to spoiled the surprise). The bartenders gave great insight on what cocktails we'd enjoy and our bartender, Mala, made our experience unforgettable. There's an expansive drinks list and something for everywhere whether you enjoy sweeter cocktails, like myself, or stronger ones which is something I don't really see at other speakeasies. The food is from the shop next door and the David chang dog was delicious. It was a bacon wrapped hotdog topped with kimchi and I will always consider adding kimchi to my hotdogs now. Very cozy, intimidate vibes on the inside with pretty cool decor as well. There are large booth seats or small 2 top tables as well as bar seating. The best bar or at least one of the best bars I've been to and I highly recommend. Can't wait to go back!
This place is a cozy speakeasy in St.
Mark's where you ring the phone to get in! Luckily we were able to get a spot when we went, because last time I was told that the wait would be like 3 hours. I loved the music that they played here, with a variety of vibes and lots of throwbacks. The drink menu was extensive but I enjoyed the NA cocktails more! The service is good as they're attentive and check up on you often and I loved that they also do your coat check as well (:
Really fun speakeasy concept! I love that you need to use a
Really fun speakeasy concept! I love that you need to use a phone booth to enter, in such an unexpected location. Thankfully they have online reservations, because the secret is out about this bar and the wait was 2hrs without a reservation. We were able to get in about 5 min after our reserved time and they sat all 6 of us at the same table, despite separate reservations. The atmosphere certainly makes this bar feel exclusive and secret. It's dark and feels underground, but also classy. The menu has an extensive list of cocktail options. They're all pretty expensive, but worth the experience and they make them extremely well. Unlike other speakeasy bars, this isn't a tourist trap. It's a fun experience and a must-go in NYC!

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!

I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
