Ace Hotel
20 W 29th St (Broadway), Manhattan
What happened at the Ace Hotel bar (aka Lobby Bar, aka Breslin Bar; aka Breslin Lobby Bar) is so ridiculous it seems impossible. Sara entered the lobby, walked around, took some terrible photos, sat at the bar, ordered a champagne cocktail (something lemonish), talked to the bartender about bar snacks, and refused to move over a seat when asked.
"I'm waiting for a friend," she told the couple who made the request, who had their own seats, by the way, they just wanted to upgrade.
"You're waiting for me," said Annie, turning around, sitting two seats away in an invisibility cloak. She'd been chatting up a hotelier so did not notice Sara's arrival. Sara has no excuse here. She's dumb. She moved next to Annie, the couple got the seats they wanted, and everyone was happy, clearly because everyone - from barstools to couches to standing around - was AA, which bartender says is constant.
