    Raines Law Room at The William is a Midtown cocktail bar inside The William Hotel. The venue opened in 2014 as an extension of the Raines Law Room concept, bringing its speakeasy-inspired style to Midtown. The bar includes several distinct spaces, such as the Bar Room, Library, Hawthorne Room with Terrace and Peacock Room. The cocktail program combines classic drinks with house creations, and the venue hosts private events as well as regular service. Its location near Grand Central and Bryant Park makes it suited to after-work drinks, pre-theater cocktails and gatherings. The setting is intentionally intimate, with candlelit rooms and a focus on conversation and cocktails.
