"I go to Cubbyhole on West 12th when I’m looking for a lesbian-friendly, lived-in neighborhood bar — it’s been an institution since 1994." - Matt Ortile
"Open since 1994, Cubbyhole is NYC’s best-known lesbian bar. At this cozy, cash-only spot in the West Village, the ceiling is always completely covered in seasonally appropriate decorations. It’s open every day and packed on weekends, but alway feels like a friendly neighborhood bar for all. Happy hours (including on weekends) here are a great deal, with $3-$6 drinks." - bryan kim, neha talreja, carina finn koeppicus

"Lesbian bars are all too rare in New York and the rest of the country, cementing their importance in the queer bar scene. Dating back to 1994, Cubbyhole is one of the most famous of such venues and promotes itself as accessible to the entire queer ommunity and allies. It’s a very tight space, and the ceiling is adorned in bright decor that gives it a funhouse feel." - Eater Staff
"At some point, you’ll inevitably end up at this small, cash-only, divey place in the West Village, where the ceiling is always completely covered in seasonally appropriate decorations. Open since 1994, it’s NYC’s best-known lesbian bar. It’s packed on weekends, but still pretty low-key on Thursdays and Fridays. Happy hours (including on weekends) here are a good deal, with $3-$6 drinks." - molly fitzpatrick, tiffany yannetta
