About this place Pieces Bar

Pieces is a gay bar at 8 Christopher Street, just off Sixth Avenue in the West Village. It is known for low drink prices, no cover charge and something on most nights, usually drag shows, karaoke or a themed party. The decor is changed for the seasons and holidays. The crowd is mixed and unpretentious, and plenty of people start or end a Christopher Street night here. It opens at 14:00 every day and runs until 04:00, so happy hour is a real option. Google reviews average 3.8 from about 400 ratings. Stonewall Inn and Julius' are a few minutes' walk away.

Updating my review: I understand the pricing rationale to an extent, but it still doesn’t completely track. As others have noted (here and at Hardware and Balcon), a Surfside is listed several dollars higher than a cocktail. My friend paid less for a Grey Goose drink. I understand a Surfside may cost more on your end, but from a customer perspective it’s surprising to see a low-ABV canned drink priced above a premium cocktail. We chose it for a lighter option. At that price, it feels more like liquor store pricing than bar pricing and comes across as misleading. My husband and I genuinely enjoy coming here, which is why this stood out.
