205 Bar

Recreating Andy Warhol's debaucherous Factory parties in a faux-dive on the Lower East Side.

In Short
Warhol's non-stop avant garde party is revived in a space decked out in salvaged, duct-taped mid-century modern couches, applique chairs and tin foil-clad walls. Behind the...

As a guy from Amsterdam I liked this place a lot.
Awesome music with a good variety of all kinds.
Nice people and the place to go to for many more times!
Wend there with very spoiled Dutch students of international well known family's. We all had a fantastic time and we'll come back as much as we can.

I had my birthday party here a few weeks ago on a Saturday night, and people are still talking about it! I had two tables in the back, the bottle waitress was soo nice (they didn't have 2 types of vodka we ordered, but that wasn't that much of a pain).

I went here on a Saturday night based on the citysearch reviews. The music was awesome, the drinks were strong but the place was completely deserted. We arrived around 11:30, and the door staff assured us the place would soon be packed. We left two hours later and it was still quite empty. Everybody who worked there kept saying it would pick up around 1 or 1:30, but honestly, I just couldn't hold out that long. If only there had been people there, I probably would have had a good time. But who wants to be in an empty bar?

Pros

+ great music, strong drinks

Cons

- totally deserted

In ShortWarhol's non-stop avant garde party is revived in a space decked out in salvaged, duct-taped mid-century modern couches, applique chairs and tin foil-clad walls. Behind the camo-colored bar (held up by office filing cabinets), doorless refrigerators stand in for shelves. The scene attracts everyone from stylish 24-year-olds to people who rocked-out in the original Factory. In the...
