I was here on Monday & the sound in the room was soo good! Shout out to the sound guy they had working. All of the staff was super nice and it opened up the space for all of us to listen to the music that the bands were playing. Overall great time. It’s such an interesting and intimate space visually too, the lighting was great as well. I hear they have DJs at night, possibly starting at 11pm. If you’re ever in the area and looking to listen to live music or dance a bit, I’d say you should go check it out. There was a cover

I'm from California and stayed in New York for 2 months and this was by far my favorite little venue for live music. The aesthetics were on point, the bartender was super friendly (and also form CA!), the beer options were adequate and most importantly the sound was superb!

Decent bar nice venue. Been a few times to see friends bands play always a blast. Gets a bit crowded and

they still charge tax when you pay cash so an 8 dollar beer , you pay with a 10, you get 1 dollar back. I’m actually pissed about that now that I think about it
That’s all I can think about and now I’m mad. But the show was free because I rsvpd. But I’m still thinking about that 30 cents or whatever. That’s all I can think about

Fun place to see bands. Ecletic Alphabet City decor. They don't have food so be aware. Bartenders are fine for pouring beers, but that seems to the ceiling for their talents - they have signature cocktails but the bartenders don't seem to enjoy making them nor do they do a great job - must've been Management's idea but they didn't train the bartenders. I found that even asking a bartender about the beers is greeted with an eye roll. Not sure if that's because they aren't familiar or don't think questions are warranted?  Summary - worth seeing bands here but stick with simple beers and eat before or after.

Played a show here and was very happy with the experience. Staff was incredibly friendly from the moment I arrived at the venue, and the sound crew (Tyler) went above and beyond to make sure the whole show went flawlessly. The venue itself is very intimate - there are a selection of small booths - but also plenty of standing room to get right up next to the stage. I believe the back room can also be rented out for private parties.
