Best WLM Reviews

One of the best bars in NYC. I enjoy every visit and I’m always impressed by not only the quantity of cocktails on their menu, but by how exceptionally good they are. Easily the best old fashioned in the city, and for those who like a fruit forward drink, please try The Sling.
The bartenders are phenomenal. I couldn’t say a single poor thing about them if I wanted to. Everything they’ve recommended to me has been splendid. We visited on May 14th and were surprised by the gent in the blue coat who was acting like a bouncer. He immediately approached me and demanded I remove my cap, rather than saying please. Then, once my friend and I got our cocktails, we decided to sit at the table on the northwest corner of the room. The same gent in the blue coat then turned spicy and told us that “this is a communal table, we need to have a space separating the guests so that they can have a more intimate gathering”. What a load of garbage. A communal table is there for, ahem, the community patronizing your bar to sit; especially frustrating since the other four people at the table seemed happy to let us sit.
It’s an elegant bar, not a social club. Please don’t enforce weird regulations for those who come to enjoy your atmosphere.
A historical bar and lounge inside the Grand Central Terminal. They make a really good Negroni and Penicillin (ask for Ardbeg). The atmosphere is old school rustic. Food menu is limited to bar food but everything we tried was flavorful. The service is attentive and fast. The place gets really busy specially on a Thursday night, recommend waiting for a space inside.
Unique cocktail bar in Grand Central!
Friendly and attentive service, great drinks and the vibe is neat (dark and sexy).
The space is small so it does get crowded. I recommend arriving when the bar opens or reserving a table, you can also stand at the bar.
The Campbell is the quintessential speak-easy bar tucked away in a quiet corner of Grand Central Station. In fact, I have walked by the entrance countless times without realizing it was there.
This is a place you go for the atmosphere over all other considerations. It is genuinely unique and interesting. The drinks are solid, but I did take a point off for their very expensive prices. The food choices are very basic and the menu is, honestly, a bit strange…. From olives to mini lobster rolls to chocolate chip cookies… huh?
It is a small place, and it can get crowded, so best to make a reservation. It’s not an ‘everyday’ bar, but it’s worth checking out for the history.
Pretty beautiful bar! The food is ok- definitely a place you just get a little bite to nibble on with your drink? Not really the place for a meal. but the drinks and service were wonderful!
We just got engaged and celebrated at The Campbell Bar. The place has such a cool, dark vibe, perfect for our night. Justin, our bartender, was awesome—super friendly and made sure we had a blast. If you’re looking for a stylish spot with great service, check out The Campbell Bar.
Very cool location at Grand Central and worth a visit. Drinks are good, but not quite worth the price.
Overall the drinks are good, but nothing crazy unique or special. Price is on par with New York City at a cool location, but didn’t think they were quite worth it. I had a GC Manhattan and an old fashioned.
You would think that the highlights in New York should be the sights... During our stay, it was the Campbell Bar.
Apart from the incredible cocktails, the bartender Justin was simply the best in the whole bar!
Someone who must also be mentioned is Fred, he has contributed significantly to our well-being! Thank you for everything!
Everyone was so welcoming, we got surprise cocktails & on top of that local tips for restaurants to visit!
We were in New York for 7 days, 4 of which we spent our evenings at the Campbell, once we were even there twice! (As you can see, we were thrilled)
A big thank you to the whole team for giving us an unforgettable stay!
We will definitely see you next year!
