G Lounge Chelsea

📍 Leather bars in New York

2.1

G Lounge Chelsea stands out as a reimagined leather bar in NYC, blending modern aesthetics with a nod to its storied past. The space features striking decor, including an eye-catching lighted artificial flower installation, and practical upgrades like an electronic coat check system, enhancing the overall experience.

While the happy hour specials and themed nights draw diverse crowds, inconsistencies in pricing and occasional miscommunication about promotions may detract from the visit. The bar retains a loyal following for its friendly, long-standing staff and lively drag performances, though some elements of the decor and ambiance feel outdated.

Decided to check out the newly rebranded G Lounge. Interesting since the space doesn't have any semblance of the old G other than it being in the same space. The artificial flower installation with the lights was cool, and they made some upgrades to the space. Shout out for the electronic coat check system! My issue is that I ordered a hard seltzer in a can and soda water poured from the bar gun, and it came to $19.50. Nope.

Menu said all draft beers were on happy hour. Bartender said no. Will not return.

Just a gross gay bar that’s always empty with creepy clientele and management. Go anywhere else.

Hard to believe they're still around while other gay bars in Chelsea have gone the way of the dodo. It started out as a very upscale bar back in the 90s bringing a different level and quality of bar/lounge option for the LGBT community (although for years it was almost exclusively gay men who went there). Now it seems to be hanging by a thread, the decor is very dated and the walls were wrapped in fabric which was a canvas for an art installation almost 2 years ago which now is a dirty mess. Several bartenders have been there for as long as I can remember and they're quick to remember your favorite drinks and are super friendly (usually after 9pm or 10 they go shirtless and pantless down to their speedos.) Great happy hour until 9pm with 2 for 1 specials. Each night usually has a different theme and with it a different crowd and scene. The place is a of popular with women whether straight, lesbian, but or curious.
