The area
Address
Neighborhood: West Village
Stretching from Sixth Avenue to the Hudson River, the West Village is one of the city’s most coveted addresses. Full of trendy shops, historic taverns, and cozy restaurants set amid 19th century architecture, this neighborhood has a unique old-world feel. You won’t find a more picturesque location in Manhattan. Without the traditional city grid layout, it’s easy to get lost here, but that’s part of the fun as you stroll down elegant narrow streets with beautiful brownstones. When you need a break, you can always stop in at one of the many quaint eateries or cafes to soak in the atmosphere, or head to the western edge of the neighborhood to enjoy magnificent waterfront views while taking a leisurely walk in Hudson River Park.

Less busy more intimate but enjoyable
Feb 2020
This was a wet Monday night in February at about 9pm and there was only about 20 people here with about 4 people able to belt it out. The piano guy was good as was the barmaid Maria. A few more people came in later and were also very good. Drinks are a little pricier than you would pay in a dive bar but whatever.

Fun crowd and great live music in the tightly packed, small bar. The drinks were just ok. Don't order the Aperol Spritz. It was champagne on ice with a drop or two of Aperol.

Goto Other Piano Bars
Nov 2019 • Friends
Place has no regard for customer service. Have brought them hundreds of customers over the years and their piano player was extremely rude to me one night. I paid my bill and left. Apparently now, even though he was the one that spoke inappropriately to me, I’m banned from the bar I’ve easily spent over 5k at in 6 months. There’s plenty of other bars in the city where you don’t have to worry about an entertainer calling you profanities. Save your money and goto BarNine or BoPeep

Great Night Out
Oct 2019 • Friends
Been here both times I’ve come up here this past month and it has been one of my favorite finds. The staff was friendly and the crowd itself was great. The selection of songs on the piano was fantastic! If you want to have a great night out and enjoy singing along to some great songs on the piano than definitely give this place a visit.

Small but mighty

We had a great time at this bar. After a fabulous drag show upstairs we made our way to the piano bar downstairs to sing our hearts out. Bring some $bills to tip the queens and piano players.

Show tunes piano bar to let your hair down!

We stumbled on this place on a lazy Saturday around five and stayed for drinks till late. What we love is the live performances at this quaint bar. even though it is gay, the ground is super mixed. The crowd is a friendly mix of locals and tourists enjoying the happy hours' drinks! This is definitely a cheaper and fun alternative to Broadway!

This place is a blast
Apr 2019 • Couples
My wife and I went here with another couple on a Sunday night. We had tried to get in previous nights, but it was always too busy and I can definitely understand why. We were here for 2 or 3 hours and had a great time. Staff was friendly and quick to serve us, and lots of different people in the crowd going up and knocking out a song. No one in our group is talented enough to sing, but it was definitely fun watching everyone else going up there. We were a little worried about being straight couples in a gay bar, but everyone was super friendly and it was definitely a crowd with all sorts of different folks there. Can't recommend this place enough, if you're in the neighbourhood, stop by for a drink.

Fun bar, great drinks, wonderful staff

What a fun bar! Downstairs they sing songs and the staff performs, upstairs is a casual vibe with fantastic and friendly bartenders and there is a quaint cabaret space to see performances. They even have drag shows most nights of the week!
