NEW YORK — The group of film fanatics sporting vintage band T-shirts on an East Village sidewalk. A finance analyst plugging numbers into an Excel spreadsheet at a Midtown Chipotle. A barista with a handlebar mustache serving an oat milk latte at a Bushwick coffee shop.

Across New York City, all of Ellie Williams’ friends seemed to have the same question: Where are all of these attractive men going out?

One day, Williams, 26, approached a guy and asked.

“For the girls, let’s go,” Williams exclaims before asking a charming brunette man for his name, age, occupation, and — most importantly — his favorite bar to go out to in the city.

“I work for a French fashion marketplace for moms,” says Vincent, 25, before offering up “Time Again,” a hip cocktail stop just off Canal Street, as his favorite spot.
