Bowery Palace

Awesome time at a really cool spot on the East Side of Manhattan. Great atmosphere.

Didn't have food so can't rate. Went for a show.

First time but not my last. WHAT A VIBE! Sex After Thirty brought so much energy and seductive grooves.

Love these small clubs that seem endless in the Big Apple. 1st time here, as I continue to enjoy the upward career of my friend Hannah Ray Teal and her band. (Please check her out on Spotify!) That's her in the picture...and doing her thing in a small intimate room right off the bar. Typical of these venues is many acts, one after the other, on a given night. Some sound issues apparently, change in set times and general "non-structured" kinda vibe, which all goes with the territory...:) No worries, Hannah and her band adapt easily and were great, crowd was cool and enthusiastic, drinks flowing just fine..,:) Ran into some "old" friends, made some new ones (including a couple of the performers, which is really cool..:) and just a general great NYC type of night...perfect...:) PS...I didn't eat, so no review on food.

The bartender made possibly the worse New York sour I ever had, when I asked for it he had no idea of what it was. Unsurprisingly, the drink tasted bad, and after I returned it and told him, I asked for two Red stripe beers instead, he had the nerve to charge me again after charging me 40$ for two drinks that were bad. Dont get a cocktail here. This is a dive bar, wearing a cocktail bar costume. They should have more knowledgeable people behind the bar.

I had a terrible experience here. While I was in the restroom for just a few minutes, the staff member on duty started banging loudly on the door. When I stepped out, she spoke to me in an extremely rude and hostile way. My friend, who was just waiting for me so we could grab drinks, was also told to leave. She even accused me of things I absolutely wasn’t doing, which felt completely out of line. The whole situation was embarrassing and unprofessional. I’ve never been treated like that at any place before, and I won’t be coming back.

Had two tickets to a party here, but the sets had sadly all wrapped by the time I made it to the venue. Took me over an hour to get there, due to a subway flooding, so I thought I’d have one drink while re-grouping. However the bartender at the street level bar was a total creep. I literally stood at the near empty bar for 10 minutes, as he ignored me and stared into space, refusing to look at me, speak to me or take a drink order. He did randomly give me a water I didn’t ask for. I don’t know if he thought I was drunk or what— but if that’s the case— BOWERY ELECTRIC, please hire a new bartender. I hadn’t had so much as a beer in a good 5 days, and was really just trying to de-stress from the journey, while texting my friends to see where everyone ended up. Anyway, probably will never come back here short of the downstars.

I’ve been here a few times but most recently this past weekend for the electric feel dance party. It starts later (11 PM). The city was oddly less crowded than usual so this time pace was also not as packed this time. But me and my friends got on the dance floor in the back and pretty soon, the place was jamming out! Definitely plan to come back for more dancing nights out!
