Bar Suzette Bar Suzette, New York City’s premier crêperie, is nestled within the bustling Chelsea Market. Inspired by the charm and conviviality of traditional Parisian crêperies and bars, the design embraces authentic materials and a welcoming layout that encourages guests to gather around the counter seating for a front-row view of the crêpe-making experience. Adding to its distinctive character, the signage design and placement are the result of a creative collaboration with the renowned Louise Fili Ltd., known for their elegant and timeless typographic work. The result is a vibrant, visually captivating space that brings a touch of Paris to the heart of Manhattan.

N Between This bar offers a unique blend of East meets West, reminiscent of a Shinjuku izakaya infused with the gritty charm of a classic whiskey dive bar. Designed to cater to both those seeking a quick bite and others looking to unwind, the space primarily features countertop seating that encourages intimate conversations and solo dining. The ambiance is defined by moody, low lighting that casts a warm glow, complemented by a palette of 70’s-inspired materials — rich woods, textured fabrics, and vintage brass accents. Together, these elements create a cozy, living room-like retreat, offering a sense of escape from the bustling energy of the surrounding neighborhood.
