Art Laboratory Wine Bar

On our lists of the best wine bars and activities in New York.

Georgian visual artist Giorgi Togonidze is behind Art Laboratory, a wine bar and gallery space that took over a long-vacant corner at 40 Avenue B. The interior mixes rotating art exhibitions with a global list of wine, beer, cider and spirits. Reservations run through Resy. The room stays small enough that a visit doubles as a look at whatever show is hanging on the walls.
