One of the best spots in the city. Always talented singers and a great place to spend a fun night.

Fun piano bar with a cool outside patio.
Fun and relaxing ambiance, will be right in the alley of show tunes lovers.

Visited this bar while in NYC for a week long client meeting and let me tell you.place was excellent! Went my first free night and they offered snacks, which won me over immediately since I love snacks, and the bartender was a great host. Loved it so much we brought a group the next night and they loved the place as well!

Drinks are cheap, music is excellent, and the people are wonderful! Highly recommend going here!

Super fun, gay, chill, divey piano bar friendly bartenders and staff patrons who are there to sing and have a good time and meet other people. Great for an entertaining night out.

I love going here late at night after work to just hang out and chill by the piano bar if Chris is there, and sing some music or just listen to others. The vibe can differ night to night, just depends on the crowd that shows up. But what a great idea to have a live piano at a bar. Gives it character, instead of the other gay bars around town that are all the same from one to the other.

We wandered in here on our back to our hotel for a drink and what a wonderful end to our evening. It is an upstairs bar with a super friendly local clientele. There was an amazing pianist who was accompanying an open mic night. So it was like karaoke with a live super skilled musician. Everyone was very welcoming and encouraging of each other. Great experience.

Tourist from Utah, just wandered in from the hotel across the street. Lively atmosphere, and I felt welcomed.

INCREDIBLE. Stopped here on our last night in the city on a whim. The moment we walked in the door we were greeted with the sound of piano and a voice of an angel belting out a Wicked song. Great place to chill out, grab a drink, and sing along to some fantastic tunes.

A fun place to gather if you don’t drink. The mixed drinks were the weakest I have ever had and the bartender was indignant that I said anything. We pour 2 shots in every drink! I wonder - 2 shots of what!? This place is not recommended by me.

I visited this location at the request of a friend and was completely appauled by a gentleman at the bar coddling a dog. Some places have no guidelines for sanitation I take it. I will not return.

Friendly piano bar near grand central station. It’s on the second floor. Draft beers are in the back bar. Outdoor patio as well.

Laid back piano bar. Drinks are good at the happy hour prices. Karen Brown and Jaz bith do great jobs on the piano, keeping things moving along!

We had a great experience. The manager was so fun. Just a great local bar that welcomed us “outsiders” well.

Throwback for piano bars of the 90s. An older crowd friendly continue mostly drunk. A well pointed space with lots of room. If you're looking for cruisy bar for young studs this is not it. But if you're looking to just relax and have a drink among the Elder Statesman of gay New York this is the place

Great place. Been coming here for years.
Just watch your credit card and cash change.a few bartenders either are incompetent handling money.or making a good side income.

Such a great place to grab a drink, kick back, and sing a song from the song books. Friendly staff and talented live pianists.
