With an ambiance and décor reminiscent of a classic 1950 cocktail bar, the Avery is a top destination for anyone wanting to try the Avery 10: a menu of 10 signature martinis named after the bar’s address of 10 Avery Street. If you’re going to try all 10, we’d recommend lining your stomach first with some of the bar’s small plates of cocktail-friendly snacks.
