Credit Cards

After two years in business, Pok Pok Ny will start taking Amex. "We have taken the public desire to use American Express to heart, and will begin accepting them this evening," Pok Pok director of operations Matthew Adams tells Eater. Patrons will be able to use American Express at Whiskey Soda Lounge next door as well as soon as the bar's account is set up. Shortly after Pok Pok opened in 2012, chef/owner Andy Ricker told The Price Hike that he wouldn't take Amex until the credit card company lowered its "outrageous" fees. [EaterWire]
