| Joonbug.com review: |
While Crobar NYC offers different themes and some of the finest DJs virtually every night, this dance mecca packs in a wider chunk of New York than Crobar’s Chelsea neighbors. Club vets (who remember joints like Twilo and The Tunnel), ultrafashionable girls, club newbies, and of course the rest of the beautiful people earnestly striving to be seen pack this cavernous uber-club. Bottle service isn’t always par for the course in the lounges, and check ahead to see what’s going on. |

The Scene
New York has been waiting for a club that harks back to a time when the season's latest shoes weren't necessarily what got you in the door. The front bar, spiked with larger-than-life reeds, has seating and a small stage area, while an industrial feel pervades the airplane hangar-like main dance room, overlooked by a balcony on three sides. Other touches--an art gallery, a white subway-tiled tunnel--pay homage to classic New York street themes. Second-level areas shift into VIP lounges depending on the night.
The Draw
The club's diverse crowd--veteran scensters, Chelsea boys, guys in suits, girls in stilettos and club kids--make the 2,750-capacity space feel like a glam New York party every night. Johnny Dynell's Saturday soirees add the underground vibe, while occasional circuit-style parties lend a 24/7 feel. The music changes nightly and from room to room, from progressive and tribal to hip-hop and high-energy house. |
