Marie's Crisis Café

Piano bar · West Village

"Less a straight-up gay bar than a refuge for anyone besotted with Broadway tunes, Marie's Crisis features an ivory-tinkler bashing out show tunes for bar-wide singalongs. No one comes to Marie’s Crisis for the booze, which is limited mostly to cheap bottled beer and mixed drinks spiked with well vodka. You just need to keep your throat lubricated so you won’t strain it hitting those high notes. Remember to grab some cash before you head over—for tips for the piano player and for drinks—as Marie's is cash-only." - Mark Ellwood
