    The piano bar area
    Stephen S.

    The singing groupies were lively. The piano player was engaging and humorous. Great voice. The upstairs was a lot of laughs from the entertainer who was a funny with her zings and stories.

    December 2024...maybe our 15th year coming together. He loves it just as much as I did when living here 20+ years ago.

    I've been coming to Duplex for 20+ years, since I loved in the West Village in my early twenties. It is an amazing space. Sometimes, SOME of the staff have inflated egos and are unnecessarily snotty and that sucks, but those ones usually come and go and the majority are fun and talented. Adam was always a favorite, but not sure if he is still there. Regardless, we haven't missed one trip coming here in the last 20+ years of visiting (almost yearly). It is always an easy stop when going to Stonewall or Marie's Crisis. We will continue to come back unless something drastically changes.

    My friends and I came here for a drink Friday night before dinner. We sat outside under the heated lamps. I got the Hot Toddy drink ($15). It was a warm drink, but it reminded me of an alcoholic version of a drink you would have when you're sick.... Not my favorite drink. Our server was attentive and came to check on us a lot but he wasn't hovering. I would come back and get a different drink!

    Great overall, but the real standout is Mostly Sondheim on Friday nights in the cabaret space upstairs. Happiest room in NYC every week.

    The outdoor seating here is key-- and great for people watching. The inside is usually crowded but appears to be a good time.

    Are you still planning on reopening after the fire?

    Do they have bloody Mary's?

    Absolutely! As well as many other cocktails.

    I'm an out-of-town singer looking for add'l piano bars to do occasional solos (mostly B'way/Am songbook). Is that only offered on Mon and Tues nights there? Can you recommend any place other than DTM's and Brandy's (esp. for Th-Sun nights)? Thanks!

    We have live music every night of the week where guests are encouraged to sing with the piano player. Music starts at 9 Monday through Friday and at 5 on Saturday and Sunday.

    Is this 18+ or 21+?

    Hello, We are a 21 and older venue.
