DRINK: Agave [NYC]

Now that the weather is finally getting warmer, it's important to have some good outdoor happy hour spots in your pocket.  Agave in the West Village is one of them.
I have only been here for happy hour, but having outdoor space in the spring and summer months is crucial.  What's to note here is that happy hour is until 7pm everyday, which is a little unusual for most places.  That, and they happen to have some killer outdoor space which is almost impossible to find.
If you're into margaritas, this is certainly a place to put on your list, but if you're like me and don't really love that, they do have some great wine.  I had a glass (or two) of Sauvignon Blanc here the other day in the sunshine, and apart from the scaffolding (which is only temporary) it's easy to forget that you're in the city.
The atmosphere is pleasant and inviting, the bartenders and people that work there are incredibly accommodating and lovely--just what you want when you're coming off a long day of work.
The prices are maybe the best part--$6 margaritas, $4 draft beers, and $$6 for a very good glass of wine.  There's little more you can as for, so if you find yourself looking for a place to relax in the sunshine, give Agave a try.
