Don’t let the cold keep you on the couch this weekend. Your bike may be covered in snow but your feet still work, so take a quick subway ride to one of these eight bar happenings—like a samba dance party, rock concert, ping pong charity event, and craft market—that all promise delicious drinks and a cozy place to escape winter, if only for a night.
