My band and I were hired to play a Gatsby themed wedding at The Pyramid Club NYC. Sarah, the events manager, was so helpful and communicative leading up to the event and on site. She treated us with respect and kindness, which isnt always the case for us musicians. Not to mention how amazing the venue looked, it was completely transformed from when I did the walk through. The decor and setup captured the Gatsby vibe perfectly. My highest recommendations for Sarah and The Pyramid Club NYC!

Such a fun little club playing all the best 80s on Friday. Very down to earth with amazing people who just want to dance and have a good time. Love it!!

What a great venue and great staff. I hosted an event our partners and it was seamless. Everyone loved the space and Sarah coordinated the vendors which were are such a pleasure to work with. I would use their venue again and refer them.

Absolutely beautiful venue! The staff (specifically Sarah) was amazing to work with for our private event. The only thing that was a downer was the area - it seemed like it was in the middle of Chinatown or something but then again we werent familiar with the area.

Jammed here in the tomb room and honestly it was a blast. Good people, good crowd, good owner. Sorry it took this long to write a review but will definitely come back in the future to see live events.

Our company had our annual holiday party at The Pyramid Club NYC. The place has a great vibe, especially with the lights down low and the music playing. Was the exact ambiance we were going for this year. Thanks to the folks at The Pyramid Club NYC, particularly Sarah, that helped it all come together.

I just went to Bootie NY for the first time this past weekend. The vibe is amazing, the music is incredible and the service was extremely friendly. They did not have the stuck-up LA vibe, people were really down to earth and helpful. We had a problem occur with a friend of ours and I explained the situation to one of the bartenders. They were proficient in directing me to the right people and the manager I spoke with, someone with a very unusual name (starts with a Z or K I hope, IM SORRY) helped me get the problem fixed right away. My friend and I were extremely helpful.

Yah, I was a pretty hardcore raver for many years and this place just isnt the same. The music was good though. The last time I went was like 7 years ago.

PRETTY AMAZING! This club is the best spot to stay up late together with your friends. This place really has an amazing crowd, great beer, and exceptional service. We really had a great time here last night, and were sure to come back here again soon, maybe this coming weekend. Good job, everyone! Thank you so much!

This review isnt a review of bootie so much as a shout out to Annabelle, the best hostess there is. She is seriously the most amazing server around. She made sure to bring us water as quickly as we ordered it and also brought us a whole platter of food. Thank you Annabelle!

For a casual Saturday night, this was $15 well spent. There was a live cover band, aerial acrobatics and of course good mashups. Drinks might be a little expensive, but they werent weak. Pizza next door afterwards was a nice perk.

Ignore Nicole Ks review. She was there, what, one night? and assesses a 1-star? I dont recall ever paying $12 for a well drink there. Ive gotten drunk there and I dont carry enough cash to pay $12 per drink and get drunk.

Its good to have your friends to go and have a great time...

Best club in NYC. Ive been going there for over 20 years. The most fun, chilled and friendly place in town. Everyone goes there to have a good time. No attitude, music is fantastic.

I havent been to a good club night in a really long time. My best friend Jamillah is in town and she wanted to go out. I wanted to make sure that she had a good time but i also wanted to rally as many people to go out with me so I could have an awesome party. I end up talking to Nick and he tells me that hell be at Bootie. I look and up and once i see the skulls and cross bones, i immediately knew what i was getting myself into. MASHUPS!!!!

I worked the Artist and had the time of my life. Sales were steady throughout all three days, and it was obvious this was a really well organised and well run con. Im sure this is a con thatll keep growing year to year.

Best place for 80s -and industrial- music in NYC. Pyramid is an experience. Probably spent some of the best nights of my life in this place.

Went for 90s night. Had a blast, but surprised how crowed it was so early in the evening.

Went here once before and was amazing. Tried to come again tonight and the security guard was so rude. He had a hat and just kept smoking while talking to us. Wouldnt let us in as a group, was sort of racist and then went on tinder after we refused to go in and left. Happy I didnt go there again and probably wont go back ever.

Had a super fun night , until I realized my purse had been opened and my phone stolen , even though i had it closed and with me all the time. As I reported it to security , the guy couldn’t care less, and gave me the impression that happened often there. Be aware! Such a shame, loved going there, but not a safe place. Don’t know what the thief will do with a completely locked phone , as I immediately reported it to the carrier and had it blocked for good .

I had a blast! This is my favorite dance bar in NYC. A true dive bar. A bunch of fellow weirdos reliving the 80s. Loud enough sound system and dj playing 80s some rarities and the hits while the downstairs dj played 70s disco and some punk. Downstairs bathrooms had recently been remodeled and were really clean. Decor is battered walls covered in fan tribute 80s paintings and flyers. Good standard drinks served in lil plastic cups. Average price drinks for Manhattan. The bartenders were all really nice especially Franchesca. My experience with the bouncer. When I entered the bar after I showed the bouncer my ID I was in line to pay the cashier and a woman cut in front of me and the bouncer saw this and spoke up for me to the cashier and said hey shes next!

Very unimpressed. Went on 80s night and while the DJ was good, the drinks were mediocre and the staff was incredibly rude. A lost coat check ticket issue turned into an usher grabbing my arm and bruising me (with no cause other than my heading towards the bathroom). The managerial staff was harsh and not at all understanding. Typically, as someone who does coat check often, my explanation of an item and the contents of the items inside is enough. Instead, I’m left (LITERALLY) bruised and embarrassed. I loved the music and the vibe, but I wish they would hire different staff.

Crazy place. Definitely falls into the category of a dive bar. But its a very friendly place with a bunch of characters. Its not tiny, but on the smaller side. Still has a nice sized dance floor in the back. Its an 80s themed bar and plays mainly music from that decade (with some from the late 70s and early 90s). They have a loyal crowd and they seem to care about their customers. Went on a Saturday night. It got crowded, but never felt overcrowded. There was an $8 cover charge . Drink prices were reasonable. Not the greatest beer selection, but they have all the liquors. Everything served in disposable cups or plastic pint glasses.

Wonderful experience for all Artist and musicians.

I was refused entry after the organizer and bouncer saw me cover my face with a bandana (I was sick and coughing), even though I obliged to the request of removing my bandana for identification purposes. This gives me the impression that this place turns away any Rivetheads or Cybergoths with face coverings, such as respirators or other forms of face masks. Its no wonder why DefCon seem so dead all the time.

This is where I celebrated my 40th birthday, best birthday ever since my sweet sixteenth... We did a private event at the Pyramid Club, friends and family all loved it. I was amazed at how so many different personalities just ended up having such a great time, and I am pretty sure it had to do with the great DJ. Maria, the manager, helped guide us through all the considerations to ensure we had a perfect night. Numerous guests commented on what a great venue this is and couldnt wait to come back on a regular night... The entire staff was amazing, catering to our every need and so gracious with all our guests even some of us who had a bit too much to drink towards the end :) If I had to celebrate that day all over again I would not change a thing... In short this place is FIVE STARS all the way!Kat & Philip

Ive been to this club before and had a great time but tonight the bouncer who checks IDs in front was extremely rude and mentioned something about us not speaking English when our group was just trying to figure out payment of the cover charge. It seemed like he had some issue with us from the start and seemed racist so we ended up not going in tonight. The owner should figure out if this person is someone they want to keep working there or if rudeness and ignorance is a quality they support. We went there on August 10, 2019 at 3am.

So. Lame. It smelled like feet from the moment I walked in. The staff is rude. The music wasn’t poppin. It was sort of empty on a Saturday night; depressing, tbh.

This place is truly wretched. Awful atmosphere, awful bar, cover fee, and it costs $12 to get liquor slopped into a disposable plastic cup.

Bring-your-own disco ball night was a real rumble in the jungle. What an innovative concept!

Very catchy music.

The female bartender downstairs with the half shaved head (and I’m not “labeling” her; I’m literally trying to be as descriptive as possible so this is apparent) was the RUDEST person I’ve ever met. She wasn’t taking anybody’s order at an extremely empty bar, and when asked if we can get a drink she tried to say we were “coming at her”. Threw our money back in our faces; cursed us off, and overall just acted extremely psychotic and unprofessional.

What are you waiting for!? Put on your skinniest jeans and your Ray-Bans, and go there already! Love this place for the great 80s dance music and the all-welcoming vibe. I always have a totally awesome time!

Amazing throwback music,me and my wife enjoy the upstairs as well as downstairs..all types of people go there to have a blast and no one judges anybody...great place to dance and enjoy the night.

Hi, My name is Fred. I was one of the door guys at Berlin in the early 80’s. When the Pyramid had a fire and was closed for a little while I always let their employees in, what was known back then as club courtesy. We would go there for happy hour and I would bring my friends from Queens who freaked out when they had the dancers on the bar. They ended up loving the place. I’m in Los Angeles now but we’ll get back to hang at the coolest club in the city hopefully very soon. Take care, Fred

Best place in NYC with good service and amazing music atmosphere

I always have the best time when I come here. Its affordable, you can wear what you want, and the staff is really friendly. Never had a problem here - only good times!

Possibly the worst sound in the city. stop with this ‘nightclub’ label. why is there a cover?

First time I visited The iconic Pyramid club, was in 1987, along with other great clubs within walking distance at the time, it was truly part of the imperative goth/freak experience back in the day. A very long club, as in most of the clubs were back then, it goes longwise into a bar to a dance/performing area at the back. Im amazed to see it still is open after such a long existence, as opposed to the mass closing of some really defining old haunts of mine like CBGBs, The Bank, The Mission, and of course Limelight.I doubt I will be returning to New New York in the future, as it is all memory to me now, and to be honest? With my last memories of Grindhouse row in Times Square becoming what it has, all of what kept me enrapt with NYC has now been lost. I suppose, for those of you that wish to at least experience what is left of the underground fare, it might be worth it just to say you had been there.

Ok, Take this with with a large heaping of salt but I loved this place. Being a child of the 80’s I totally loved the music. The bar is nothing to brag about but God how I loved the mix of Wham, Whitney, Ah Ha, the Cure and Duran Duran without being inside my car. Can’t wait to go back.

Played shows here multiple times in the past, tonight I was assaulted by the security guard and the “owner” an hour after paying to get in under the pretext that I wasn’t stamped. A larger man with fading hair insisted I couldn’t be allowed back in. This may seem pedantic, but it’s upsetting when people are so money hungry they would rather create scenarios to extort an extra $8 than exude any breadth of professionalism. It’s especially pathetic when the last good place to dance on the east side is managed by a group of losers with such lack of vision they taint decade long customers with some store tactics. RIP Pyramid

I loved this place II hid in super drag.No one noticed me.I had to learn everything about people.To act, direct and allow shows.

Lots of fun. They did an Elvis night my last visit. Basically dressed the place up like an airplane en route to Memphis - stewardess’s and all. Great fun. That was 29 years ago.

Great music, except sucks, when the bartender decides to overcharge for the drinks at $20 for a Titos club. I have been there before, a few times and had a blast downstairs, during their goth events, and was always only charged $8-$15 per drink. Last weekend, went on Sunday before Presidents day, as an after an event dive bar, it was empty when I first got there, and then after I ordered my drinks went to pay and the bartender said $20 I asked what? Are you sure? I was just given a blank stare so i paid my $40 for two Titos club drinks, shortly after they started getting more people and low and behold, they decided not to close in 30 minutes, as I was told, left anyway since was being over-charged. The DJ was ok, but the hike in prices for drinks, at randomness, should stop, its a buzzkill, they did the same to a friend of mine, that went there and he quickly left, after he told me he was treated rudely by the bartender that also charged him $20 per drink.

This place is simply amazing. Went here with friends, my boyfriend and alone and everytime had a great time. The vibe is amazing. Everyone is having fun and the 80s hits make everyone go to the dance floor. A lot of young people dressed in any type of fashion. Cant come back to NYC and miss this place.Also check the downstairs area for electronic music and some sort of a more mysterious vibe.Drinks are NY price. but theres free water to help you not to get too drunk.The spot is kinda far from the train station but you can always take a cab.

I loved the place,I havent been there since 1984 but hey its still there !

Had a fab time dancing the night away. Great music. People of all shapes, sizes and ethnicities. A bit of a salubrious neighborhood but pretty safe! A melting pot of fun! No judgements. Friendly and great fun. Worth a visit to work off dinner! Different themes from month to month. Disco, Madonna, alternative. I’m going back as soon as I can.

I love this place and have been coming regularly. I just recently noticed that the left side of the bar charges me 12 for greygoose with club soda and right side of bar charges me 10. ????. I always order the same drink so i dont really know why. Wont stop me from coming but just pointing it out

Best place I have ever worked part time manager and door man awesome people to work with.. I miss this place so much

IF YOU LOVE 80s music this is the place for you. I dance my heart out every time Im there.

LOVED IT!! i spent Halloween 2016 night here and danced on a tabletop for 5 hours straight, GOOD VIBES, FUN CROWD! I LOVED THE MUSIC !! Being an 80s kid, this was such a nice reminder of a beautiful era. And the history of this place, fabulous! Thank you so much, I cant wait to go back. :):)

I came here &. Jax was amazing and quick to respond to all my email inquiries. The atmosphere was great, good music, not overlly crowded and the hosts treated me like a Queen.I felt like a million bucks. They even gave me a shoutout!!!

Really a great club to go to. They do have a $3 cover charge which is minimal and keep in mind they are a cash only bar. The music was in the 80s and a nice separate dance floor. Overall a great experience and not that costly at all.P.S. They had dancers on the window and inside in a stage when we went in.

Four stars more for nostalgia. Of all the places I grew up in New York city going to- its the Pyramid of all places that is still around.A standard go to for Saturday nights- I havent really been a big fan of the basement area since it was redone (looks a bit too much like a doctors office).You always know what to expect here- unpretentious mixed crowd upstairs.

One of the last remnant of what East Village once was and can still be. If you don’t dig the 80s, go somewhere else.

The coconut mojito is so good and hh was real nice. Not too busy, great service. Decor is cute. Not the most tiki place Ive ever been but worth the visit!

Had a really good time here on a Saturday night, with 80’s dance music playing. The renowned nightclub has a unique charm and fun ambience. I bought a ginger whiskey for $6 and a berry ciroc with cranberry for $9, which is fair for NY lol. Staff is super friendly and attentive.

Ive been here 2x now and I like this place. I will come and stay here to dance anything off. The music is great, totally awesome. I went to the madonnathon yesterday and danced and drank and was just so chill and didnt care if I danced good or not. I just had fun. How come I didnt know about this place before. Must, must check it out. Its all about the music. And the place too. ;)

Unprofessional security staff with clear inability to respect the personal space of patrons. If youre looking for a club which treats its customers with respect, there are plenty of other places you can (and should) go instead.

A bit cramped at times but worth it for some affordable dancing, great music, and good atmosphere.

Awesome music and cheap cover but awful service and drinks. So, yeah.

They were supposed to have an event with a list of special amenities and games that night when we arrived the bartender had told me they forgot wires for the Tvs so half the venue was virtually empty. Djs were good only half the time. Dancers were also pretty lackluster. Cheap drinks and the occasional good song keeps this place at two stars for me. If you are gonna have a cover charge for an event make sure you come through with your word....

Dont pay cover if you enter before 9. Drinks are cheep and if you like 80 music this is the place for you. There are some crazy characters , so go prepare ! I always have a great time !

Best place to go dancing in the East Village. I first went here in 2004 and still divey and reminder of the NYC of yesteryear. The music is 80s and usually on Friday and Saturdays; but they usually have different music in the basement-goth, industrial, dark electro, or live bands. The crowd is always unpretentious and great people watching. I love the Pyramid Club and always go if in the area!

The bancers a fat white guy and and black guy with dirty hair, was arguing with nice young men Saturday the 28, at 330. In the morning i seen the whole thing the black bouncer was starting fights with people passing by any random guy i have a recording of the whole thing he should be fired the place is awsome but the security is not in there place calling people racist terms and the fat security spit on a guy with out him looking please do something about this.

Best music club of all Manhattan! Great music, great people, a must go!

$8 entry fee after a certain point in time (11p I think?), Beers are ok priced. One of the livelier but slightly more spacious dance bars in the EV, so thats a plus. Overall, Im meh about it.

Nice 80’s club

This place is simply amazing, The renowned nightclub has a unique charm and fun ambience.

Kicked out onto the street while actively attempting to contact my ride. After paying the cover fee, and in the city for my first time, my friends left to get food without telling me. I was calling them to see where they were, and was kicked onto the street for loitering in the hallway. I was left on the street in an unknown city with no concern for my health or safety despite my attempts to have a civilized conversation with the staff (bouncer).

Loved it. barely changed in 30 yrs. tune selection not quite as perfectly hip but good enough. didnt see any skinheads or mohawks or dog collars or big army boots.no transvestites on the bar, no hardcore porn on video screens in the downstairs lounge. other than that -- almost completely unchanged. sound system still dynamite. had a blast.

Ever since Bat Cave closed, this the awesome spot to get your groove on & a drink, pick up a sexy! Awesome!

I went today was ok not really what I 2as looking for in the 80s

If youre into dancing, networking, and great music, this is the place to be! I really find the edginess of this brick cave to be enticing for a fun night out in the Alphabet City. Relatively cheap drinks. Great service. Awesome music. 80s night. Cybertron. Thats all you need to know. Check it out.

Prices are reasonable. This place is not for the faint of heart. There is a grungy homey feeling to the whole place. You can surely get lost in the dark ambiance, good music, and leave with the satisfaction of knowing youve been to a hell of a party.

80s night club. Cash only, usually around $8 to get in. Good place to dance and have a great time on a Friday/Saturday night

My friends really like this place, and 80s music, so i gave it a tried on friday and I did not like it. I love 80s music but they only played 3 good songs per hour. The ambience is a bit heavy, we were in a big group so we had fun.

The staffs were really rude to me and my friends. 8 dollar covers and you don’t get to be treated as a normal human being.

My very expensive purse got stolen here. Wtf.

Love their music throwbacks and drinks are affordable.

Upstairs DJ... I dont know what was going on there

Danced our dang shoes off at 80s night

Great 80s Music. Nice priced specialty drinks. Nice partying crowd.

Great music, good drink specials, and a freaking air-conditioned dance floor. Couldnt ask for a better spot.

We went out with a friend and it was really nice but the music was too 80’s

This place is fun and they even have 7$ pitchers wooooooooooo

Extremely unprofessional bouncer. Was a regular here, but after an event involving this bouncer, and then reaching out to management and giving them 4 weeks to react to the situation, but receiving no apology, I am leaving this review. Many other places to frequent in the area for better prices, atmosphere, and service. Beware.

My girlfriend took me there and it was awesome am a 80s&90s girl so the music spoke to me .I danced from the moment I walked in the door with a few breaks to get a drink and returned to my spot ( the stage ) .It was awesome .Hi Susie

My Brother and a few friends of mine preformed here. This is not such a bad place.

If you enjoy music so loud you cant think, along with a dance floor too dark to see anything, and a bouncer who wont even let a cup of water outside, then this is your place!Otherwise, stay away... Far away... Actually, dont even go into Manhattan on a Friday night.

Be in the mood for 80s music, and you get it. I always dance when I go to Pyramid. I just make sure I stretch it out between visits.

You can dance like an idiot and no one judges you! Unpretentious crowd and great music!

I had plans with my friends for a hardcore dance night and thats what we got when we went there. The atmosphere and decor is what it was ment to be. Its a club, not a 5 star restaurant. I didnt have too much interaction with the bartender but so far she was ok. Over all i came to dance and thats what i got....GREAT music. Up AND downstairs! I felt at home. Cant wait to go back!

I came here with some friends because we wanted to track down a dance club. Well, yes, technically there was dancing. However the only one dancing was someone dressed like Billy Idol on a platform in the chilly dance floor room, which was empty and filled only with smoke. We left sad.

Love love this place!!!! People and staff are amazing !!!!

The party was ok but the bouncer was impolite and aggressive.

80s to the MAX!! Love the place. Especially Drum and Bass night!

The pyramid club its the ultimate experience I go there every other Saturday the music is good the drinks are cheap the envireoment is great the crowd is good I recommend for 80s fans go there to have a great dance experience

Great music
