Love Thy Neighbor’s guest shift series continues with Atsushi Suzuki, founder of Tokyo’s The Bellwood, which recently earned a spot on the World’s 50 Best Bars list. Suzuki began his career in Tokyo before joining the pioneering team at New York’s Angel’s Share and later helping open The SG Club in Tokyo, and he now leads the beverage program at Love Thy Neighbor alongside co-founder and beverage director Shigefumi Kabashima.

For the night, Suzuki takes over the West Village bar with his signature Japanese bartending precision and creative approach to cocktails. Reservations will be available via Resy in two time slots, 8–9:30 p.m. and 9:30–11 p.m., with booking expected to open soon.
