Outer Heaven

Great venue for a DJ set and a drink. Outer Heaven curates an immersive listening experience without being too overwhelming or pretentious. I came here to see The Dare and other DJs for Freakquencies. The visual effects and sound system blew my mind and absolutely elevated the experience. It’s a smaller venue but that allows you to be very close to the DJ which makes the vibe a lot more intimate. Outer Heaven also boasts good bar essentials, a lot of bathrooms, bartenders, and seating. When I went the coat check was free and the staff were chill. There was a line but it moved quickly. The bar has standard Manhattan prices so don’t expect a bargain. Overall Outer Heaven offers a great listening experience if you’re coming for a DJ set or live music event. Otherwise I would pick other bars in the area if I’m just looking for a drink.

Super beautiful design, with proper flow from entry to bar, dance floor and bathrooms. The sound system is top notch! Excellent experience but little respect for culture as patrons SHOUTED to each other on the dance floor, despite multiple signs encouraging conversations in the bar area. Even as the sound allowed for a normal-volume conversation, the amount of groups simply shouting on the dance floor was really irritating. Security also did not enforce the club policies that were in plaques all over the club, so then what's the point?

EDM music was vibing. Really appreciated finally finding a good dance spot. Was packed and the strobe lights were intense but really glad we went. The line was definitely a bit of a wait. Didn't get tickets ahead of time and a lot of people let in ahead of us but was sort of part of just showing up. Didn't get food or have table service so can't speak to those. Was hard to get a drink at the bar was crowded and people didn't really move away once they got their drinks. Would have been nice to have a dedicated spot where it was understood people move away from that part of the bar for other patrons. There was smoke machines and was overall a good vibe for EMD.

I mean it might’ve been the Detroit night I was at August 2nd. But it was live from 11pm until close. From the first dj until the last dj the music was so good and had a power to it that was attention grabbing & gave so many people energy on the dance floor. The cocktails were a 10/10 and the service was great! It was so busy that it did take a while to get a drink and that is not anyone’s fault it was just a really good time!! One of the few places left in the city to catch a high house/techno DJ with a packed house. They also often have a great selection of sake!!

This place is a viiiiiiibe. The Djs, the acoustics, the atmosphere. So sexy. Love the Akira wall decals. The staff is lovely and door never gave me a problem (it’s NYC….there’s a culture around doors). My only qualm is the PEOPLE that go here. Very summer intern/ just moved to NYC after studying marketing/business/finance, but still wants to seem edgy and chic so they go out to funky spots. I love a good spot that clearly values music and third space curation. I wish the crowd also reflected that.

This place is lit. had way too much fun got kicked out but then I came back the next day had a great time again 😌 staff was amazing especially at coat check! To come back a second night after getting kicked out says something! Love it here. Best club in Manhattan fr

Best night club and listening room in Manhattan and the coat check fortune booth / cookie goddess is amazing. A true psychic. Everything she says come true. The cocktails are amazing. I just love outer heaven

bouncer said cover was 150 EACH for my friend and I at 1045pm on the friday after new years. we paid it like idiots just to walk in and see the entire club was about 11 dudes standing in a circle. they probably didnt even have a legit cover and the bouncer basically just robbed my buddy and I of $300. dont come here- there’s ZERO motion.
