How to Plan a Great NYC Birthday in the Village - West Third Common

If you looking to plan a great NYC birthday, there is some good news and some bad news. The good news is that there are a wide variety of venues, so you will have plenty of options to choose from when planning out this very special occasion. The flipside to this, which is the bad news, is that there are such a wide variety of venues for you to celebrate at that you may have trouble narrowing down just one. There are so many activities, musicals, sports events, and attractions that the hardest part of your birthday may be narrowing down your choices to just one thing. Luckily for you, in the city that never sleeps, you will have time to do plenty of things.
 
One suggestion that I have is combining dinner and drinks with your after-party celebration. A fantastic spot do do this at is West 3rd Common, which is located right off of Broadway at 3rd Street. This relative newcomer to the New York birthday scene offers a pretty nice array of drinks, and the bar has a full menu that guarantees to satisfy. In addition, the place has a nice assortment of board games that are available to play, including my personal favorite Connect 4. There is nothing better than alternating shots with shouting "Connect 4" as you lounge about in style.
 
At night, the venue really picks up, and you have a nice opportunity to enjoy champagne, mixed-drinks, shots, and a vibrant nightlife. The venue often opens its huge bay windows, which allow the night air to flow through and really make you feel connected with the ambience of New York City. If you are looking to celebrate a NYC Birthday, West Third is a great choice.
 
The area also features some other fabulous eating spots if you are looking to eat somewhere else before coming to the bar. Local favorites include Bully's Diner, Think Coffee (famous for their grilled cheese sandwiches), and Acme, with a unique blend of southern and cajun flavors that are guaranteed to make you say, "YUM!"
 
Access to the area is also simple, with a nice variety of subways, cabs, and town cars available to pick you up, and it is also a nice walk on a beautiful summer evening to the area from anywhere in the city. Some of the sites that you may see as you are walking down if coming from midtown include the famous Fifth Avenue Shops, the Empire State Building, and New York University. 
 
Summer time is a fun time, and celebrating your birthday in New York City successfully can be as simple as planning your birthday at the right NYC hotspot.
