Their acts are very polished and well styled. It’s a mix of variety, burlesque, singers and circus acts. The place looks like the Moulin Rouge. It totally rocks! -Molly Crabapple, Artist Read more.
Order a Hendrick's Gin and Tonic with cucumber, and enjoy one of the great burlesque shows. If you’re an account exec, let your clients pay! Most expensive drinks in NYC...
Feel glamorous, hip, and ahead of the curve here. From Gossip Girl to The Glamour Magazine party. tres chic! True NYC club experience.
Great place to hang w/ good music. Sometimes you need to pay $10-15 for the admission but mostly it's FREE. Highly recommend stage 2 rather than stage 1.
Stand a few feet from a passionate musician during an intimate concert to really experience music
Terrific intimate space to hear live music. Saw Glen David Andrews here and he melted the place like butter...
Longstanding and still awesome! Great bar area and simply no bad standing room anywhere inside. Check out drink specials. You can't go wrong here <3
Great intimate venue. Bands love playing here, you'll love seeing them here. Just grab your drinks on the way in and stake out your place on the floor. It's going to get crowded.
Cults say their Mercury Lounge gig was “the scariest show we’ve ever played, we had been a full band for less than a month.” Fun fact: The Strokes & Yeah Yeah Yeahs cut their teeth here too.
Karaoke in the upstairs lounge is unlike anything you've seen before! Monday Nights is honestly the best party in the LES... possibly the whole city!
Pianos usually runs late with their set times. That’s OK, ‘cause the food menu’s great: surprisingly good nachos with chickpeas. Read more.
In addition to fresh new music coming out of the main room, Piano's often has more stripped-down acts perform upstairs. Also, the burgers are pretty darn good.
Cults lead singer worked here when she first moved to NYC. She only lasted two weeks, but still calls it the best bakery in the world. Go for the Red Velvet.
BEST vegan and gluten-free bakery in NYC. Try a uniquely flavored cupcake, such as their chocolate banana (chock full of banana chunks!) or brownie mocha.
The best sugar-free, gluten-free baked goods anywhere. Heaven has a Babycakes, but so does NYC!
My favorite concert venue in NY. Great acoustics, w/ an intimate feel. They do a great job of booking indie bands that complement the space. Don't forget to check out the balcony!
Frank Ocean killed the stage here for a small audience on 11/27/2011 during his first NYC performance.
Watch a show from the balcony right next to the soundboard.
best lox I've had - try the pastrami smoked salmon!

Bagel with Lox and Cream Cheese: Doesn’t get more New York than this. Unreproducible. - Anthony Bourdain, No Reservations
perfect sound, mostly free and fantastic wine selection. very classy Read more.
Love music? You should know this spot.
This is the best place to see music in the city, country, world?
Great underground music scene for up and combing bands. Can't beat live music and fun groups.
Unlike other stages at Rockwood, this is a temperature controlled, intimate space. There's a two drink minimum. I wouldn't bother with the wines. Seating is limited. Show up early for scheduled shows.
Excellent low key bar on the les. The drinks are perfect and the pork belly deviled eggs are out of control.
Great addition to the area. Beautifully made drinks with sleek ambience to boot. Laid back and chill is welcome amongst the saturation of trendy spots that populate the vicinity.
Anything cooked by the superb chef Justin Farmer is sure to be delicious!
The very Eastern European menu includes saline chicken liver, garlicky karnatzlach sausage and enormous beef tenderloins, all of which are hearty enough to slow down the hora.
$55 Prix Fixe buys you all the potatoes (+meat) you can eat. $300 buys you a bottle of Vodka in ice. So, just bring like $101 and you'll be fine. Also, try the Hora. It's fun.
Say it's your friend's Bar Mitzvah. Better yet, say it's his Bris. You will not regret this decision.
Amazing karaoke!!!! Best time I have had in the east Villiage!
great small venue (bar) to see a show. great vibe...nothing snooty here. drinks are on the cheap side. great bands.
Epic live band karaoke Monday nights at 10pm. Bring your inner Axl Rose.
Off the beaten path favorite. Cheap drinks, pool. Live music in the back. Good for large parties
You deserve a Bailout Package. Go let the bartender give you some financial aid.
Get a St. Charles with BULLDOG. They make their own pickle brine.
Be a child with an unrefined palate and order the PB&J. Just kidding, it's actually a pork belly & jam slider. Read more.
The rooftop is sweet
Save your money for the weekend & have a chill Thursday night: free DJ set & $1 vodka drinks 10-11 PM
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
