    My friend met a male stripper at a pizza place we went to who worked at Pieces, and the stripper recommended that we stop by this gay bar. We never did see him though. Instead, we were able to catch an hour of the drag show that seems to occur every Sunday at 8pm. The performers were entertaining and engaging and involved the audience into their performance. The interior is small, but we found seats front and center! Definitely a spot to check out if you're not afraid of this kind of material! The crowd was almost all men mostly in the 30-50 age range, with some women here and there.

    I love Pieces and it's so much fun. I've been here a total of 3 times and each time it just gets better. The last time I came with my mom as a surprise for her birthday and needless to say that she enjoyed it a lot.

    I have been frequenting local gay bar "Pieces" at 8 Christopher Street, Manhattan for a number of years. In recent months, I am extremely happy with my weekly visits due to the relaxed atmosphere and superlative bartenders Jason and Jamison. These gents are very friendly and highly efficient. They have a great rapport with patrons and are fully adept at making great drinks. I look forward to coming to Pieces for many more years to come.

    TSA like security cloud based ID check system that may violate privacy rights.

    I use to like this bar, but now they utilize an invasive ID checker system called patron scan. See article below. https://cookcountyrecord.com/stories/640569316-biometrics-class-action-says-fake-id-detection-service-patronscan-illegally-scanned-faces-of-bar-nightclub-patrons Customers at no point were given a full disclosed as to what data is being scanned and saved across any cloud based system in the name of fake ID checks. Very dystopian for a few hard seltzers.

    Unacceptable prices. Sorry.

    Just since Eric wants to pass this off as normal... for anyone interested this same drink order was $27 and change total at Monster, $32 total at Stonewall and $24 total at Julius and Rockbar. Plus these other 4 didn't serve in plastic throw away cups! Just for those that are curious of the "normal".

    This bar. Period. It's so much fun! Drag queens are fun, but bartenders are better! CHRISTIAN is the mostly friendly (and sexy) bartender there is. There is no way you can't have a good time when you come to 8 Christopher Street!

    They have the 90's public phones

    Everyone is really warm and welcoming, which is nice when a lot of the male gay bars arent.

    If you're on the fence about going to Eagle, well just hop off already and get your bum over there…read more I finally did and realized I had been missing out all this time. This fantastically grungy place is fueled by a mix of thumping beats, leather harnesses, and shirtless men. Even at its busiest, the vibe stays open, fun, and surprisingly well organized. The Wednesday before thanksgiving is apparently known for being the busiest night at the Eagle, and this year's record crowd should have sunk the whole operation, but the staff kept the entire production going smoothly like it was rehearsed. The Eagle's security team deserves direct credit. They managed an impossibly massive crowd without a hitch. Even with thousands trying to get in, the kilometric entrance line and the coat check line that stretched to the roof moved smoothly and never descended into chaos. Dan in particular handled a near-impossible task: recovering my smartwatch from a crowd so packed I had assumed it was gone for good. He somehow retrieved it, safeguarded it, and returned it to me with the utmost professionalism. Music is solid. The vibe is leather and musk. The inclusivity is not just tag line but a daily practice. This bar deserves every positive review on this app. Ignore the haters. Peace!

    Leather gay bar with a distinct edge in an edgy neighborhood with staffers who have an edge too : )…read more The whole vibe of the place is meant to be edgy and transgressive. It works on some levels and not on others (no one will be singing show tunes but everyone's trying to look very serious in a faux macho sorta way) Fun place to visit, but you wouldn't want to live there
