A dive bar created from a formerly sunken, barnacle clad ship? Sold. One of our favourite New York drinking spots, The Frying Pan is an eclectic, frat-party style drinking world created from a bunch of boats docked on an old railroad barge. With occasional DJs, live acts, burgers and booze, take friends and soak up some sun. Be warned, this place gets packed on a hot day, so grab an icy bucket of beers, head up to the observation deck and watch the sun go down over New Jersey.

Nans, stag do's, kids, families and friends can all be expected, just don't forget I.D, sun cream and a keg party ready attitude.
