West Village, Chelsea & Meatpacking District


All sorts of young women, many from neighboring New Jersey and Long Island, storm this 'Bar & Girl,' where theme nights bring in spirited DJs spinning hip-hop, house, rock and other genres. Happy hour is 4pm to 7pm daily.

The owner, Brooklyn native Lisa Cannistraci, is a favorite promoter in the world of lesbian nightlife, and is often on hand to mix it up with her fans.
