Friday evening at Battery Park Book Exchange starts at 5:30, so you could catch Hank and Vollie and still have the whole night ahead of you. The champagne bar upstairs makes it feel more like a date spot than a typical show venue. The spot runs as a full bar so anyone bringing kids under 10 needs to keep them close the whole time. It's all first come first seated across two floors of couches and chairs, so showing up early helps if you want a good spot. The space welcomes dogs and has an outdoor patio if you need some air between sets.
