Recently opened in the Touro neighborhood, The Library is far from dusty, but is a cool university spot where you can quietly reflect over an adult drink or collaborate with a group of friends after a long day (or week) of work. Play a game of pool or cornhole. Chill on a couch in the swanky lounge upstairs or stay downstairs. Order one of their 32 bars on tap and watch your favorite sports teams compete. Whatever you choose, you'll probably want to sample from The Library's menu of craft cocktails and upgraded bar eats, like Scotch eggs, duck sandwiches, and sliders.
