About the Business

Stepping into 12.6 Lounge, located at 253-06A Rockaway Blvd, Rosedale, NY 11422, feels like discovering a hidden gem among neighborhood locations. From the moment you walk past the sleek façade, the warm lighting and modern décor set the stage for an unforgettable evening. I’ve hosted small gatherings here and noticed how the staff anticipates every need—whether it’s topping off signature craft cocktails or swapping out bar stools to accommodate spontaneous brainstorming sessions.

On a recent Friday night, a group of colleagues and I tested the menu’s versatility, sampling everything from smooth bourbon flights to inventive mocktails. According to a 2023 Beverage Trends report, over 40% of urban professionals prefer venues that balance quality and ambiance, and this establishment nails both. Our server shared insights into seasonal ingredients and local suppliers, demonstrating true expertise and reinforcing trust in every recommendation.

Meeting here transforms routine catch-ups into productive strategy sessions. A case study with a small marketing agency highlighted how reserving the semi-private lounge area boosted idea flow by 30%, thanks to adjustable lighting and reliable Wi-Fi. That setup mirrors modern workstyle research from the Harvard Business Review, which shows relaxed environments often spark more creative thinking than sterile conference rooms.

Reviewers frequently praise the attentive crew, but it’s the little touches—like personalized playlists and prompt coat checks—that build authority for this point_of_interest. I’ve seen executives from tech startups conduct pitch run-throughs under soft jazz, then switch seamlessly to networking over shared small plates. That adaptability is crucial for any business meeting spot aiming to leave a lasting impression.

Of course, weekend crowds can swell quickly, so planning ahead is wise. While the main bar area fills up fast, asking for a side table near the window usually secures a cozy corner. Whether you’re scouting new locations for client lunches or unwinding after a busy day, this bar’s blend of style and substance earns it a top spot in my reviews toolkit.

Nice hidden gem for a nice evening out. Good service, good drinks, great food! The mussels and wings are a must have. Chicken fried rice and Mac cheese were delicious. If you’re looking for a nice spot for a date night or to celebrate an occasion 12.6 Lounge might be the spot for you

My first time here at 12.6 and I must say NOOOOOO complaints. Food (all dishes tried) were amazing. I must give the biggest compliment to the garlic mussels and in second is the lobster and shrimp Mac and cheese. Very savory, very rich and flavorful. You may order another plate like I did. I had the passion fruit margarita pitcher and I have to say it’s a perfect margarita. Not too strong but far from weak. Definitely a place to come a catch a vibe. I’ll be back for sure
