What People Are Saying About Webster Hall Night Club NYC

Featured Review

In Short – This tremendous historical ballroom (known in the '80s as the Ritz) is now a mainstream-glam dance shack, with several floors and 40,000 square feet of adventure. DJs spin house, pop and various other genres to suit the crowd's taste. The club also features art shows and variety acts. A large number of patrons flock here from outside the boroughs, though special events such as fall's Exotic Erotic Ball (imported from San Francisco) attract more downtowners.

ambiance
100.0% positive
  1. the place is fun and big!
  2. Great atmosphere, people are friendly, Huge place, There's room for everyone to dance (well except the hip hop room to crowded).
  3. will say that the sound for last night's Joanna Newsom show was basically perfect, and I do sort of enjoy the decor in the main ballroom in an odd kitschy way, but do the freaking bouncers have to treat everyone like they're seven years old all the time
  4. The place is crowded, dark, and loud - you are either into that or you are not; if you cannot dance or are not willing to try, this place will not be fun
  5. usually go there on Thursdays for ladies night which is so much fun for me and my friends when we've had a stressed out day.
  6. think this is the best place to have fun on a crazy weekend.
  7. Webster Hall feels like a cozy club within a larger club.
  8. fun place, good music
  9. The place is just fun, plain and simple.
  10. go there whenever I get the chance cause they have awesome electronic music and a really nice atmosphere.
  11. loved the trapeze show and the singles auction which my girl and I bid on another girl and it was a lot of fun hanging out with her.
  12. It is an anything-goes party that is just plain fun, no frills or pretense.
drinks

  1. Only down note, drinks are expensive, and its hot as hell.
  2. Little nice bar to have a conversation, variety of the crowd.
  3. The staff is friendly (minus the self-important door guys whose moods can swing either way), the drinks don't cost more than you should be used to paying at clubs, and the music is great.
  4. Thursday nights is ladies night which is fabulous (very hot stripper on top of the bar naked) and when you enter the place they give the girls screws and the guys bolts, so if you see a hottie with a bolt you can screw it on and get free drinks (literally
  5. the bar has reasonable drink prices and specials and the dj's are not as good as they used to be.
  6. My only complaint is that the drinks were a little pricey.
  7. Prices for drinks are high , atmoshpere is not great considering you're in NYC there's a TON of better places so skip on this one!
  8. Thursday nights is ladies night which is fabulous (very hot stripper on top of the bar) and when you enter the place they give the girls screws and the guys bolts, so if you see a hottie with a bolt you can screw it on and get free drinks (literally).
  9. The drinks are expensive but hey its a club in nyc.
  10. Very expensive drinks. Unless you go for a group package or are a high-roller, the prices are ridiculous.

  1. Little nice bar to have a conversation, variety of the crowd.

  4. The lines were not too long, the music was good, and there were a ton of options.
  5. Enormous, multiple dance floors with all kinds of music. Huge variety of guys and girls - somebody for everyone.
  6. They are great and they are very diverse that is what makes webster hall a great club.
overall

  1. Webster Hall is a great place to go for several reasons:the music is ALWAYS good or at least it has been when I've been here.
  2. The best place in NYC to go dancing
  3. went to this place with some friends and we got a VIP table (We were the only one in VIP...bad service), we were good until one of the security guys took one my friends out because she was getting sleep. I saw them taking her to other place without let us
  4. think this is the best place to have fun on a crazy weekend.
  5. good place for weight watchers to advertise.
service
70.0% positive
  1. Doorstaff were really friendly and polite, very chatty (may have come from our Irish passports used for id!
  2. went to this place with some friends and we got a VIP table (We were the only one in VIP...bad service), we were good until one of the security guys took one my friends out because she was getting sleep. I saw them taking her to other place without let us
  3. The staff is friendly (minus the self-important door guys whose moods can swing either way), the drinks don't cost more than you should be used to paying at clubs, and the music is great.
  4. No hassles and a friendly staff.
  5. packed but still room to dance and there were hundreds of beautiful people
  6. please do not go to this club, the bouncers are so rude here, my jacket was exchanged wid some one else as iwas arguing wid them the bouncers came in and asked the girl as she lied that she gave the rite jacket they pushed me out of the club and the other
  7. On the NEGATIVE side: FIRST: the management of WH is not the most talented or loyal to their people.
  8. The show was supposed to start at 10:30 but didn't start until almost 11:30 and the guy who manages the tables was very rude.
  9. the people were great.
  10. Its very nice to go there back in the day if you are going with a big group of people who have varried music taste, because u can always split up and go your own way.
  11. In the past, they have fired the best security team the club has ever seen, fired a great staff of dancers, all for money issues  SECOND: the club choice of music is very disappointing, for example, the DJ in the 80?
  12. Great atmosphere, people are friendly, Huge place, There's room for everyone to dance (well except the hip hop room to crowded).
  13. The entertainment is ridiculous with: fire-breathers, trapeze artists, drag queens, showy bartenders, etc.
  14. The thing about WH is the crowd is always mixed - a huge variety of people: white, black, spanish, asian, new yorkers, tourist europeans, canadians, whatever.
  15. The place is beautiful, but it was awkward dancing in such a big space with less than a hundred people in the main room.
  16. The two male bartenders were very cute friendly & the host of the show (Shane) is hilarious.
  17. Expect: long line, pricey, rude body search, crowded, multiple leveled club with various music.
  18. We were herded into the place by indifferent bouncers and then forcefully instructed to seperate into gender specific lines to be search by rude bouncers.
  19. Lots of tourist, friendly staff AMAZING music

NYC Nightlife

by Avi Snow

If you are looking for good parties in NYC,with a local NYC crowd

Places like: KISS&FLY, TENJUNE, 1OAK, LAVO, Riff Raff's, Gansevoort Park, SL and many more

places in the Meatpacking district

I promote a few different spots every night and always have a VIP table or a table on the dance floor.

I meet my guests outside the club and personally walk them in.

Table reservation? Bottle service? I can make a table reservations in almost every spot in the city, getting the best tables in the club and best prices.

Celebrating birthday, bachelorette party? I can get you the best deals
