<p>The area around super-classy apartment building One Morton Square, in the edge of West Village, has a fine array of well-stoked boîtes from which boozy revelers can choose from. Hell, <a href="http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;source=web&amp;cd=1&amp;ved=0CBgQFjAA&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.observer.com%2F2010%2Freal-estate%2Ffull-house-1-morton-square-olsen-twins-sell-77-m&amp;rct=j&amp;q=observer%20one%20morton%20square&amp;ei=WYkTTsLIIIbBtgeKqID4DQ&amp;usg=AFQjCNFHA7PRmMhH_hPShhV4Dgtp4sZ0Aw&amp;sig2=pfV7kj-_rb75_t14JphjNQ&amp;cad=rja">the Olsen twins used to live there!</a> But it wasn't the best day for another of the spot's celeb denizens -- in the new issue of British <em>GQ</em>,  Daniel Radcliffe <a href="http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20507743,00.html">admitted that until August 2010, he hit the sauce a little bit too hard.</a></p>
<p>"I became so reliant on [alcohol] to enjoy stuff," Mr. Radcliffe said. ""I'm actually enjoying the fact that I can have a relationship with my girlfriend where I'm really pleasant and not fucked up totally all the time."</p>
<p>That's fine and all, but when you <em>were </em>"fucked up totally all the time," what were your favorite spots? <em>The Observer</em> called every place with a liquor license in the area in search of the spots he found the most spiritual.</p>
<p>First up, Barrow Pub. Pubs -- they're British! Surely, Harry Potter came by The Barrow to knock back something stronger than butterbeer, no?</p>
<p>"I didn't even know he lived here," the bartender told<em> The Observer</em> over the phone.</p>
<p>Criminy! What about the sleek lounge Lelabar? Surely this bougie wine bar lured the underage addict with dreams of drams of Pinot Noir.</p>
<p>"Haven't seen him," the bartender said. "I usually hear about all the sightings, and I live around here and I haven’t seen him."</p>
<p>Then we realized, Radcliffe, he's a rebel. He'd want to go to a real Rock 'n' Roll spot. Hello, Rockbar NYC.</p>
<p>"Haven’t seen him in here, but then again we get some people," said the barkeep. "Katy Perry was here over pride weekend."</p>
<p>Modesty, Rockbar NYC. Learn it.</p>
<p>OK, so clearly Mr. Radcliffe is into some solitary drinking in his Morton Street flat. <a href="http://www.observer.com/2008/harry-potter-closes-his-second-manhattan-apartment">He did, after all, pay $4.9 million for the place</a> -- why leave it? And with its adjacent location, King Deli is the place where he'd stock up on sixers.</p>
<p>"What?" the King Deli staff said to <em>The Observer</em>. "Who is this? I don't know."</p>
<p>Not a beer guy! And of course he's not--it must be  straight to the hard stuff for Daniel Radcliffe.</p>
<p>"Yeah, I don't think so," said the operator of Golden Rule Liquor, on Hudson Street. "I know the Harry Potter guy, though.  A couple times I've gone into a restaurant and he’s there."</p>
<p>A lead-- the guy actually <em>does </em>leave his apartment!</p>
<p>Then we rang Sea Grape Wine Shop, which stands a few blocks from his abode. Bingo.</p>
<p>"Yeah, I'm pretty sure he's been around," the cashier told us. "He's been here."</p>
<p>We pried for details about preference and frequency--a bottle of Merlot a week? Cognac every every Friday? daily afternoon pick up, case of Dom Perignon at the ready?--but he couldn't say for certain. We now know that, until his August 2010 decision to get sober, the lush that was Daniel Radcliffe got his stuff at Sea Grape.</p>
