Fat Baby is my second home, I should invest in the place at this point. Staple spot in LES, always great music. They have decent pricing and open until 3-4AM. Don't go there on Sunday

Fun for going out dancing with a group. We stayed downstairs most of the time. Can get hot but they have giant fan they turn on when it starts to get toasty.

Great comedy club that gets lots of major acts, many on an impromptu basis. Always fun times and also has great bartenders!

“The 2 areas have totally different schedules – as the live music ends downstairs, upstairs really gets going. Plan to stay late to check out both.” More at http://www.partyearth.com/venues/fat-baby.

No frills night club. Can get really crowded. If you're with a bunch of guys, this place is easy to get into. Cheap drinks.

The drinks are pretty up there as far as bar prices though. They have a 3 drink minimum on cards after 10p. After 10/11p, it gets packed fast. Lower level opens after midnight.

No cover. Great dancefloor spot. Lost of dancing, girls and drinking. The music can get heavy with hip hop, dance and top 20.

This bar gets really crowded around 12:30 but empties real fast. Drinks are decent/cheap/appropriate for LES. Crowd is mixed of frat boys, nerdy guys and NJ

Go here if you'd like someone to punch you in the face for no reason that you've never met before and a bar staff that won't help you seek medical attention when you clearly need stitches.

great place to dance. avoid the upstairs area, it gets way crowded.
CarolOctober 18, 2015
Dance club upstairs and downstairs, but the downstairs is more poppin'

Very cool bar / lounge. The downstairs tends to have more space.

Good spot for the end of a night. Top 40s and small dance floor

Great Happy Hour and drinks are super generous!

Wednesday night is apparently the night they play old ministry. I recommended having at least three drinks here. 5/7.

Try and decode the sharpie markings the bouncer draws on your hands. If you get some hearts then he has a crush on you...eww

they have fruli strawberry beer here, which tastes like sweet, sweet strawberry nectar (ie. best beer ever)

You'll get thrown out for doing pull-ups on the girders at the back.

The Bouncers here are on a power trip. One day they are going to get what's coming to them...

A crappy bar but at least they play good music!

Grungy dive bar that can be fun for live music but otherwise nothing special.
HenaliDecember 23, 2011
good looking crowd, strong drinks, great music! long bathroom lines :(
Tina HenrySeptember 7, 2013
Screw this place. 3 drink minimum on a card. Bartender accused us of not tipping (which we did) and said she wasn't going to serve us if we didn't tip. I went here solely for a friend- never again!

Saturdays, no. Wednesdays, yes. Hilarious stand-up, good times.

Hip hop and dancing!

Used to be really good on Friday and Saturdays. What happened?!

If you never want to college, check it out to find out what a bad frat party is. Also-minimum on cards is $40, which is illegal. Downstairs is passable, upstairs blows eight dicks.

Playing at Fat Baby tonight with Hack! This place will never be the same.
Natali JonesJanuary 8, 2012
Music downstairs is awesome, but the rudest bartenders with the worst service!
JesseMarch 28, 2010
Listen to some good beats- some old schol, current...everyone goes home happy

Ditch the popped collars upstairs for the rockers downstairs.
