Punch House

Punch House is a sultry subterranean cocktail den in the basement of the historic Thalia Hall, decked out in mid-century modern wood paneling, vintage pendant lamps, and a tropical fish tank behind the bar. The menu centers on eight rotating punches -- both classic and contemporary -- served by the glass, carafe, or communal bowl, alongside oysters and bar bites. Nightly DJs and Song Selectors spin disco, funk, Latin, and soul to keep the basement lively.
