Prepare to get weird and squeeze into the back room. Judgement-free dance zone, get down.
Justin BartonOctober 12, 2013
If you are a girl in her early to mid 20s you would like this place. If you are a guy who likes those girls and doesn't mind get high off of acetone from girls getting their nails done, go as well

Music is great if you get the right DJ, crowd is whack, girls loved the $10 mani with a free beer, dont go before 11pm (thats when the back room opens), gets VERY crowded so prepare for drink spillage

For $10 you can get a delicious martini and a manicure at this landmark beauty salon turned bar & lounge. We’re fond of the Wave No Wave night on Tuesdays.

Love this friendly place! Good happy hour and cute atmosphere. Usually a pretty great playlist going on too.

Free stand-up comedy several nights a week, best prices on 14th st, never a cover, and DJs almost every night. Great parties on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays! Get mani/martini for $10!!!

A cool and different spot that's been around for awhile. Come here with out of town friends looking for cheaper drinks and a fun experience.
Steven EgglestonJuly 14, 2012
Excellent array of music, with selections dating back from the 50s to current pop fare. Very unique experience that will satiate the need for a great night out.

Forget Betty & Veronica. If your one true love was Cheryl Blossom, pay attention: On #BDOYL (6.21.14), look out for the special Redhead cocktail!
Ms HeleneDecember 29, 2013
$10 for cocktail and manicure. Pay at the bar and get a coupon with a no. on it. Just wait to be called for your mani, excl.'s $5 gratuity for manicurist who wasn't very good but hey, it's nearly free
Rob CheekJanuary 18, 2015
Always a great crowd and great music. More bartenders then mixologists but they do a decent job.

You can get a manicure and a martini for 10 bucks! After 11 pm, DJs spin dance tracks in the back room. A lot of fun (if you don't mind sharing your personal space--the area is small!).

Super nice bartender and honest drinks. $10 martini and manicure is a winner

This is a great place. All inclusive. Bar can be a little crowded, but the owner is really cool. Been going here for a few years and really haven't had a bad night there. People dance here..Friendly Read more

A cute place for dancing and chill out as well. Beauty Bar appears in the style of a 70s hair dressing salon. On some days you also can make an appointment to get your nails done. Awesome. Read more

Fun bar with great dance room in the back. Get their early for a manicure ;)
Amelia AAugust 15, 2013
Karaoke on Wednesdays hosted by the man Captain Morgan aka Concept, and stinks by Shane. Best spot for a late night on Wednesday!
Gianna NebbiaOctober 8, 2018
Such a fun unique place- you gotta get a mani while you sip on a martini or 3.
Jackson IsaacsonOctober 22, 2016
Kitschy little place with an excellent happy hour and $10 drink and manicure specials.

Quirky place with vintage charm, and get your nails done too if you like.
raymondweilOctober 4, 2011
Indulge at Beautybar- a place done a la Hairspray- lights made from hair-drying consolettes with modern-pop furniture and groovy strips of paint everywhere. Because Independence is a state of mind.
LaDawn Penigar-MitchellNovember 22, 2016
Definitely come for the atmosphere; the drinks aren't anything special and the manicurist didn't go a great job!
i.am. a.February 19, 2017
80's Almodovar vibe. Fun if drunk. Very mixed crowd.
Rebecca SutterMay 18, 2013
Watch your shit! My bag got stolen here, and as nice and helpful as the entire staff was in (unsuccessfully) trying to locate it, it's apparently a very regular occurrence.

MG on Tuesday's, Sunday karaoke with Brock.
Fatou BahFebruary 1, 2015
Great DJ Friday night playing Prince, The Cure and lots of new wave artists.
Andrew LitvakMarch 4, 2015
Always a good late-night destination, especially if you want to get your dance on. Younger crowd.
Zaarly NYCOctober 8, 2011
Ever wonder what it would be like to go to a beauty parlor and drink? Of course not, but here they offer it with dancing in the back. $4 PBR and $8 mixed drinks.
LorettaFebruary 18, 2013
Ask for Kern at the bar for good drinks & even better conversation. Don't forget to leave him a fat tip.
EmilySeptember 25, 2011
I could see how a lot of people might really hate this place, but I loved it. The DJ played all the pop music you love to hate. The crowd was as quirky as the venue.

Music you'll know all the words to. Get the cough drops for tomorrow because you won't have a voice.

The Martini & Manicures special is the best deal in town. $10 for a mani and a free (really good) martini. Perfect girl's night out, without being overly precious.
Chris SourenDecember 13, 2013
Have your nails done! One of the most fun places I've been in a while
CharlottesJune 27, 2015
Fun dive bar with 80s/90s tunes. Stinks of nail polish but in a kinda charming way. I mean, why not?
Kathryn DJanuary 29, 2017
Kitschy and hilarious vibe with good dance floor.

Sophie VranianJanuary 18, 2011
$10 mani/cocktail totally worth it, and I never paint my nails. Also just a really fun, retro bar I think even my boyfriend would dig.

Still has the old East Village vibe...at least on weekdays.
Sophia BergereJuly 10, 2021
Dance floor only Friday & Saturday after 11. that’s when you gotta go
Rudimus Radimus RamulusFebruary 17, 2014
One of the fewest remaining cool bars still standing in NYC.

Nice music mix on Saturday! Only five guys in entire bar. They must have felt really lucky :)
