I came into a dance floor, and it inspired me to dance. I thought the service was amazing and accommodating. And then the drag queen who performed made me laugh. Liam and Ruby made me so happy.
Pieces was my first gay bar many years ago. It has never disappointed me. The queens that performed and the bartenders have created a great atsomsphere for this gay cub. Ruby Roo was amazing, great bartender and so friendly.
I was in this bar on the last day of pride month 2023. I love this bar no matter what. But tonight was different. The young person who was the waiter in the bar tonight was kind and attentive. I am disabled and he made sure I was ok and had my ginger ale drinks. So sweet. Also the entertainment was wonderful. I don’t know the red heads name from drag race but thank you for recognizing an ally. I’m here for it…❤️❤️
The first gay bar I’d ever been to. I was 16 with a paper bracelet my friend’s cousin had passed back to me.
That was 18 years ago, and I don’t say this to disparage the bar. It was literally the first time I was ever able to be myself. It might sound silly with the underwear parties or whatever, but I consider this place holy ground. My own personal stonewall.

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!
Went on Monday night at 8 - it was not crowded. I was completely ignored by the bartenders while standing there at an empty spot at the bar with cash in my hand. They served the group of guys next to me and then went to the other side of the bar to chat with friends. Other bartenders continued to pass through the bar and looked at me without saying a word. I left because I couldn't get a drink or cash to tip the drag artists. Really a bummer since I came from out of state with a plan to see both drag shows that night.
I have been coming to “Pieces” at 8 Christopher Street, Manhattan for a number of years. I especially love this gay bar because of its pleasant atmosphere with super efficient and friendly bartenders Jason and Jamison. I usually go there early and find the clientele relaxed, comfortable and enjoying their cocktails. I see myself frequenting Pieces for years to come. I highly recommend stopping by to give it a try.
Over priced drinks. $10 for a domestic beer. head to other local watering holes for better. Went for a drag show with some friends. AMAZING performances. I hope they pay their staff. the prices charged for the beer was ridiculous. So sorry to say no tip, save my money for the performers.Otherwise I had a great time
