The brainchild of hotelier and Studio 54 co-founder Ian Schrager and entertainment impresario Nur Khan, Two Fifteen offers a lively and captivating social gathering environment. Both nightlife connoisseurs agreed that in order to move forward, one had to look back and ultimately decided to take inspiration from the 2000s, particularly their previous collaboration for the Rose Bar at the Gramercy Park Hotel.

Founded in 2006, Rose Bar quickly became one of the city's top destinations for cocktails and live music, including performances by Guns & Roses, Rufus Wainwright, Jack White, The Black Keys, The Cult and more. “Finding a nightlife tycoon as good as Nur is like looking for a needle in a haystack,” says Schrager.

Two Fifteen marks an exciting reconnection between Khan and Schrager. “It’s a dream to work with Ian again to develop a boundary-pushing concept that embraces the eclectic energy of the city center.” “The space brings to life a mature and edgy cocktail experience reminiscent of the early years,” says Khan.

The bar's interior isn't afraid of opulence, with a color palette limited to minimal black, while accents are added through details like crystal chandeliers and ruby ​​gemstones. The lounge is dimly lit by the warm lighting of the surrounding wall panels and a modern fireplace under a large glass installation in cool blue tones creates an atmospheric atmosphere.

Like Rose Bar, Two Fifteen will also regularly host a series of musical performances from rising music stars across a variety of genres.

Keeping the boudoir-like ambience in mind, master mixologist Charlotte Voisey carefully curated the cocktail menu in four phases: work your way through the options “Champagne Cocktails,” “Modern Takes on Classics,” “Drinks with Vibrant Colors,” and “Spirit-Free.” .

Cocktail tray service, bottle service and table prep are also available for an upscale hospitality experience. A must-have is the made-to-order Gold Bellini, inspired by the original Bellini from Venice in the 1940s. Of course, with a twist from Two Fifteen, Hendrick's Gin is used for an extra boost of flavor and the cocktail is decorated with raspberry and edible gold.
