Editorial Review for The Cubbyhole – by Amy Douthett

In Brief
A West Village corner bar that dresses itself up as the bottom of the ocean (dangling goldfish and seaweed hang from the ceiling), the Cubbyhole welcomes a mixed lesbian and straight crowd to imbibe the array of nightly drink specials. More like a private party (to which anyone with a smile on her or his face is invited) than a bar, this bar ranks among Manhattan's most welcoming havens, period.

User Reviews for The Cubbyhole

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

08/07/2008 Posted by hapyorker78

I was shocked when i read the last review of what is now one of my favourite bars in NYC and i could not disagree more. There is a reason why the bar is packed on a tue night, (1) because the margaritas are good. (2) they're $2.00! - where does that happen! (3) the bartenders are extremely friendly and wouldn't know how to give someone attitute.... So clearly that person had a bad day and judged everyone they came in contact with! MOVING ON, i went last monday for the first time for my birthday and the blonde bartender payed a lot of attention to us, gave us delicious shots and made sure we were comfortable had a great time. She even stayed after her shift gave us pizza and danced with us! LONG LIVE THE CUBBYHOLE!

2 Star Rating: Below Average

the $2 dollar margaritas were awful! the place stinks. the crowd was of obnoxious people, losers. the blonde bartender had some attitude, who needs an old chick to tend bar anyway? the place is simply dirty. ugly people, ugly bartender, ugly bar. the cubbyhole in one word? loserville.

Pros: nice location

Cons: the place is filled with losers
