Tue Apr 15 16:41:46 -0700 2003 1070557 0 Mary 2 1070691 There *is* a bar area, but it is in the main dining room so I don't know if it would be the type of place you'd go just to hang out. I'm not sure if they have live music... I kind of doubt it. The Mermaid Inn is on Second Ave around 5th Street. It's run by the same guys who own Red Cat in Chelsea.
