49 Grove

I love on this place!! Shout outs to Life, Ceaser, JD and the rest of the staff. They're the greatest! I frequent this place mostly because my roommate promotes here, but I truly do enjoy the atmosphere. The ceilings are low which I personally find comforting. I'd consider this place more of a lounge then a bar (maybe that's what it's actually classified as I don't even know). But the staff is very personable and there's almost always enough room to get you're swerve on. Bow chica bow. Music wise - they play the same type of songs you'll hear at any major clubs (Modern pop songs, hip hop, Journey that you can't help but sing tto, old school stuff like Blackstreet - No Diggity LOVE IT perhaps because I was drizzunk). But that's besides the point. If you're down for a more intimate setting where you can chill/ and/or dance like a maniac like I usually do with your peeps or some cool cats you have yet to meet then I say give it a shot. NOTE: Preticious bitches/desutcbags are unwelcome! I highly reccommend sticking with the clubs where you can rock that super sexay mask of yours. I actually just came from there so this review might not be the most insightful but hopefully you'll pick up what I'm puttin' down. Contact Rex Workman or Jennifer Denes on Facebook and get hooked up with free admission/drinks all night. Peace out party people! P.s. I'm serious bitches and d-bags stay away. I have a mean left hook and I know how to use it. Pros: The general vibe. Read the damn review. I'm lazy too just do it. Dual handles on the staircase for overly inebriated folks. Cons: The TVs? The lack of House music? Whatever nothing's perfect. Just check it out. more

I went to 49 Grove with my girls for a bachlerrete party and we had a blast. Even though, the holiday weekend made it a bit slow, the music was awesome so we had a blast . The staff was fun and the drinks were kickin. It was a night we will all remember. I totally recommend this venue. Pros: music, space, drinks Cons: can be too cold, if you go early more

The music was great, but the staff was hot! Caesar I got your number now!!! LOL i will be coming back to 49 grove soon. PS* You looked hot saturday! more

This past weekend we had my girlfriend's 30th bday at 49 Grove. The space itself leaves a lot to be desired, it reminds me of a high school party at a friends house in his basement when his parents are away. There's not a lot of room to move let alone dance, and the "back rooms" they provide are disconnected from the rest of the place. They also had a flat screen in the room itself but it was broken. The stafff was nice and responsive but only because I made sure of it by sweetening the deal for them. The manager was also accessible as well if/when we had any issues. With that said their billing department and their follow through has been awful to date. They mischarged me for the night, TWICE, and even though my bank is saying both charges were placed by 49 Grove, they don't seem to have a record of it which has become very annoying to deal with and I'm skeptical to their claim that this "never happens." My suggestion is you either go to 49 Grove randomly so you're not trapped there if you hate it or find an alternative place to have a party cause this place did not live up to the hype. more

This place is not a club. This place smells horribly and there's a $20 entry fee. For all the clubs - some of the hottest clubs do not charge cover. For those that do, there are so many other clubs that are worth a cover fee. This place is not one of them and the management are jokes. Pros: Nothing Cons: The location, low ceilings, sound system. the smell more

49 Grove always performs to my highest standards everytime I come in. I work in the industry and I am never disappointed by my service. The staff, let alone the whole club, is classy (and beautiful) and everyone in this lounge knows how to have a good time! The DJ plays great music, and regardless to a prior review I just read, I watched Pulp Fiction on every television in the club and didn't notice one malfunctioning television? The only people that do not have a good time here are the people that choose not to have a good time. Period. You seriously have to check this place out! I'd dress to impress though, because this place is filled with gorgeous and trendy west village goers!! Pros: Always a good time Cons: It's NYC, bring your wallet more

Went to 49 Grove last night. Have heard of the venue for sometime now but never actually went. Went with a group of friends last night and really enjoyed myself. The venue itself is very nice. Plenty of room to dance as well as areas just to hang out and chill. The only problem I had was with the music. The DJ was all over the place with his song selection and there were many times in which the music cutout and there was silence for about 3-5 seconds. Dont know if there was something wrong with the sound system or if the DJ is really that awful. Even without the music cutting in and out, the DJ was still pretty bad. The crowd was very attractive (generally people in their mid 20's) and the staff was pretty friendly. I will definitely come back in the future, hopefully the music will be better next time. Pros: Attractive venue and crowd Cons: DJ and music more

I really had a great time! We booked a table there on saturday and we had a blast. I usually go to Pink Elephant but my friend Eric work there and he has been tellin me to come by and this pass saturday I did. first we really had a great table, second my buddy hooked me up on the price. The DJ was Great, The crowd was very hot and the place was not too packed. Just enough to enjoy my self. I love Pink Elephant but I enjoyed the prices a 49grove better. Thanks 49 grove, I will be coming back soon. more

OMG did I had a good time! And my girlfriend ended with me that night!!!! Well to start my friends booked a table for me this passed saturday and when I showed up the line was crazy at the door. But Thanks god all my friends got in!!! When I got downstairs the place was packed with good looking girls! My girl got so mad that she left and I stayed! Anyways! The service was great! The place was packed with the hottest girls I ever seen, the door was a LIL tought but once i got in and all my friends got in. I had a blast. Thanks Eric for a Great time. I will tell all my friends about 49grove. Pros: Great crowd more

This place looks nothing like the pictures show...its just a basement ...thats all...I went for my birthday with about 20 people..which probably takes up the whole place. They told us 3 bottles minimum which we agreed to, the total was $1500. I was with about 9 guys and 11 girls.(keep in mind very pretty girls) I told the bouncer I had about 4 more people that were on the way and it was cold so I would come out and get them when they call. They were so nice to me bouncers doorman and list girl....Once they took the credit card and gave away one of our tables, we were annoyed but stayed at the two tables. My friends called about 20 min later and I went up to tell the bouncer they were with me, he told them to wait on the end of the line. If they wanted to get in they had to buy bottles too. basically everything i asked and he said yes he totally ignored at forgot and became a Ashole I went to the girl with the list who I called on the phone 3 times prior to make sure we would have no problems and she acted like she never spoke to me. I guess after reading some of these reviews, all the hotspots will tell you that you will get in no problem....cuz once you are there you most likely will buck up and go in. I spoke to the manager, and I never met a bigger punjab punk than him. He was the worst of all so finally before I broke his face....I went downstairs grabbed the girls and guys got my card back and btw if you were smart since the places always ADD things to your bill (somehow there was 4 bottles and shots and redbulls on the bill) get a credit card that has a small limit like $500.. worst case scenario if it does somehow go thru, tell the bank you didnt use that service). Anyway we left and went to another club in the meatpacking district had no problem getting in and didnt even buy bottles. just had to pay small cover but well worth it. I always have a good time anywhere I go, Iv'e been to Guesthouse, home, marquee,one,gspot,cain,cielo and always had a great time Pros: Had hot girls with me Cons: service, staff, place, basically everything more

I've been going there for a long time and everytime I am there, I have a great time. The DJ is sooooooooooo gooooooood. And the crowd is so sexyyyyyyyyy. Yeah they are a lil thought sometimes, but who wants to go to a club and they let everyone in! And I mean all types of gettttttooooooo ! I am sorry to say that but I dont want to go somewhere where the crowd dont look good. I really like this place and I really recomend everyone to go there. more

1st off the person who tried to bash on the place is a nuts. they are always packed ! there is always a line. and new years is crazy every where. the thing about this place is that you do need to be in the know or hot to get in .. my friend does the door and hes not the nicest guy when your not the part. when i go there and i ve seen celeb giants football players rap stars etc they didnt go to a bigger club to get mobed by the normals. they came to lil 49 grove because they let you right in b/.c your someone and they give your priavicy. dont go there if your looking to be king of the room because odds are there is someone who is always cooler there! Pros: getting in is the pro Cons: they could use more bathrom space more

The great thing about Citysearch is that you can have candid reviews from any bar or club in the city by normal people who actually go and experience the place. You always get people who rave about a certain place for whatever reasons, and people who rate it poorly because they could not get in etc. However, when I looked to see what other people were saying about 49 Grove I was shocked to see how stellar and spot on the reviews were. The perfect reviews just kept going, and were all about the great service, hot people etc. And then I decided to look at the people who reviewed 49 grove with 5 stars, such nightlife enthusiast who had nothing but the greatest thing to say about it. It turns out I need not look far. Everyone who has given 49 Grove 5 stars on the page below has ONLY RATED 49 GROVE. This means that its clearly a promoter/club owner. Pretty lame if you as me. In reality this place is more like 2-3 stars. Here are the 5 star reviews, click on the names and you will see that 49 Grove is the only place they have reviewed. A little suspicious. kwall8 kmarie11 hungover goodonpaper antyson artistsweetsbecker djanya lawless65 tpbigbeatz howid1234 xaviers2005 goswam zacrubin melliemel4 jyzon12222 cbloomnyc kstevensnyc katstevens cbloom123 lemo0701. These people are making citysearch lame, and defeating the purpose of ?user reviews.? Pros: not a bad looking crowd at all Cons: Regular club lounge nothing special more

This place suckered me with a lot of false promises.. First, open bar??? ummmm... There was one bar, with 2 bartenders which blatantly said if you didn't have $$ in your hand(for tipping) you didn't get served, They actually had to see the cash in your hand... and they were just strait up BEEEEEEP. Of course this was all if you could even get to the bar which was a 12 foot shelf, and a 100 person line...Appetizers????Where?? I didn't see one tray of any thing... and the breakfast?? Ohhh yes the breakfast.. crusty bread and bagels at 4 in the am.... yummy! The DJ was good at first, then his ability to mix started to slip. There was a lot to be desired for the sound quality. Sorry to say I can"t agree with the other's raving about tis place... it was a disappointment :( and not worth the $$. I might consider another try on a normal night out on the town... Pros: easy to get to. people at door and bus boys very nice. Cons: bartenders were mean. sound quality more

Despite being on the guest list, last Saturday I stood on line for over an hour with the promise of getting in. I only made it to the front of the line because people kept leaving and warning us that they were on line for over an hour. I was dressed well and usually get picked off of lines but the cocky doorman was not budging. The female bouncer with the cornrows was extremely pleasant and friendly. more

I was at this place last saturday and I had a great time, the music was good, drinks was cheap and the people was so hot! Even the cute manager! " Yes Mas I am talking about you"!!!! I ll be there for NYE xoxo more

What would have been an otherwise great night was marred by our short dominican waitress's (with short hair) attempt to add on an additional tip for herself at the end of the night. The door was great, the management was great, the music was great, and the waitress should be investigated and arrested. Its a shame that such a dishonest little waitress should leave such a bad taste in our mouths for a lounge that clearly went out of its way for us. Kudos to Mas (manager) and the door staff, but shame on the waitstaff for being dishonest. Pros: manager that seeks to impress, great music Cons: dishonest criminal waitstaff more
