Cubbyhole

This is the most popular lesbian bar in NYC. Someone will unavoidably take you to this tiny, cash-only, sort of divey place in the West Village if you're new to the city or just passing through if you're visiting, where the ceiling is always completely covered in festive decorations for the current season. When it's busy on the weekends, it's pretty quiet during the week. However, you can expect a line, as well as straight couples looking for "friends" and groups of non-queer individuals visiting a lesbian bar "just for fun." Every day from 3 to 7 p.m., Cubbyhole offers Happy Hour, which includes free pizza and half-off all drinks.

Hanging from the ceiling are bejeweled chandeliers, tissue-paper fish, holiday decorations, and Chinese paper lanterns. Bar stools have shiny vinyl upholstery that features Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Porky Pig graphics. True to its name, Cubbyhole is a cozy haven that has welcomed a close-knit mix of locals and visitors for more than three decades, both inside and out in their "cubby shack."
