What People Are Saying About Boiler Room
Featured Review

The Scene – The vibe manages to stay young without lapsing into attitude; a major achievement. College boys, cowboys, East Village freaks and the occasional disoriented leather daddy all seem to coexist peacefully in this dark and smoky bar. Make friends over the pool table, or in an amiable debate about what's next on the jukebox. Dilapidated vinyl sofas in the bar's shadowy recesses are a great place to relax alone or with company. – – The Draw – One of the few gay bars with Bass and Fosters beer on tap as an alternative to the omnipresent bottled Rolling Rock.

Not good
by manhattandiner
Popped in for a beer. It was a very bad experience. I like a good Happy Hour but this bar is sad. Watch your belongings and keep the mace out.
- Pros: None
- Cons: Crowd and Staff

Ughhh
by shotzjc
USED to be a good bar. Unfortunately the staff & crowd has changed to the degree of unbearable. Angry/drugged up people that like to throw bar stools at people. Sorry - but there are too many GOOD bars to go to that you won't have to deal with a place like this.
- Pros: None
- Cons: Service & Crowd

Such a Good Vibe
by sweetsara75
Went to BR and loved it. They have a great "late night happy hour" special and the vibe is so relaxed. Nice bartenders, pool table, couches for lounging you can't go wrong!

So friendly and wonderful
by ejh239
My roomate had his 22nd birthday party there, and we all had a BLAST. On my 22nd and my friend's 24th joint birthday party that we had there, the bartenders put a sign out for us that announced that it our birthday, AND we basically got free drinks all night and even a time when the juke box turned off and i got a cupcake and everyone sang me happy birthday. Are you EVER going to find that a nasty chelsea bar? I don't think so. Richard and kevin the bartenders are GREAT, you will love them every time you go there!
- Pros: cheap drinks, nice people, great service
