Booking a bar or lounge in Manhattan

There are 25 bars & lounges available to rent in Manhattan on Venues NYC. Every listing below shows real photographs, the actual hourly rate and the host's own description, and you book directly with them.

Our bar and lounge inventory runs from cocktail bars and speakeasies at the intimate end through hotel bars and full lounges up to spaces that hold several hundred, concentrated in Hell's Kitchen, the Lower East Side, the Bowery, Williamsburg and Bushwick. Many are available for full buyout; some rent a defined section while the rest of the room trades normally.

Two things to settle before you sign. First, whether the booking is a buyout or a section — the difference decides whether your event has the room or shares it. Second, the bar arrangement: minimum spend, open bar, consumption tab or cash bar are very different economics for the same guest count, and the number that matters is cost per head, not the hire fee.
