Here's why this casual Irish pub was just voted the best bar in North America

For the second year running, New York's The Dead Rabbit has been ranked North America's best bar (and the world's second) on the prestigous World's 50 Best Bars list.
In 2014, Business Insider named The Dead Rabbit the Best Bar In America, calling it "the place to be after work."
The Irish-American tavern is a well-kept secret of business folk working in the Financial District, although it draws a regular crowd of Irish tourists.
Owners Sean Muldoon and Jack McGarry emigrated from Belfast, Northern Ireland, four years ago with dreams of opening a pub that reminded them of home. You won't find a neon Guinness sign in the window, nor are there shamrock lanyards around bartenders' necks.
The Dead Rabbit serves 145 varieties of Irish whiskey and 100% authenticity.
