The Place: Real-life New York nightspot which played host to stage greats like Tony Bennett, Sammy Davis Jr., Gerry Lewis and Dean Martin, and, um, Gary Glitter.
It was also a favourite mob hangout, and one of Goodfellas’ most famous sequences shows young Mafioso Henry Hill walking through the kitchen to take a specially placed table by the stage.
What To Do If The Food Sucks: Think really carefully about making a scene. The underworld connections initially came about through the part-ownership of Luciano family boss Frank Costello.

I'd like to make a case for the Winchester (Shawn of the Dead) where the pig-snacks are abundant and the jukebox is perpetually on random. Also a good place to make a final stand against zombies.

I've crawled into many a pub like this, only to be greeted by an undead clientele!

I saw Clockwork Orange when I was 16 in 1971 (I was tall and looked older than my age for an X movie!) I was totally shocked, inspired at the clever storyline,the grotesque violence,the profound 'karma'at the end...I wanted to decor my bedroom as the Milk Bar!!

Now there's a smoking ban...all style like this has evaporated into mediocrity! Pulp Fiction would never feel the same standing outside with a rain soddened cigarette!!

Although not from a film, 'The Bronze' in Buffy the Vampire Slayer would be an excellent place to eat, drink and die in!
