People -
For those L.E.S. junkies seeking more formal digs than the Ludlow jukebox bar scene, but unwilling to play velvet rope-games with bouncers, there’s People. One of the many poshish bar and DJ spots springing up this formerly chill neighborhood, People thankfully lacks the unwelcoming pretetion of its neighbors. Chalk that up to bartenders more concerned with drinks than attitude and a bi-level, earth toned space that feels inviting and romantic, not overly designed. People lends itself to friendly get-togethers and after-date drinks during the week, while weekends morph into a lively singles scene. Their drink prices won’t force you into debt for the privilege of being there, so take a seat and stay a while.
