I hadn't been to a bar in years, but being in New York City, I had to visit the most iconic gay bar there is. I was not disappointed. This place is so full...

Came here for a beer. It was nice to see how the decoration was preserved. Lovely ambiance and service. Good prices. Happy hour until 7pm

This is a very important place, where half a century ago brave people changed the course of history. After Stonewall, the world is becoming a better place to live, although there is still much to be done. Freedom, equality, brotherhood, no hell or heaven, just us and our future

We were there in the afternoon and the atmosphere is still amazing. Thinking about the history of Pride and the LGBTQ+ movement, and the times they must’ve had in this bar. Goosebumps!The beer was excellent, the staff were very friendly, and the toilets were all-gender (always appreciated as I’m nonbinary).The atmosphere was wonderful and there were lots of historic photos on the walls too. And I bought a T-shirt and they had find in my size. Awesome.

Of course, this is an iconic place to visit and a must for anyone visiting NYC internationally for the first time. The bar and wait staff were fantastic and super helpful, really chatty and fun and made us want to stay much longer than we had planned to! They let you get takeout pizza from nearby joints to have outside, and we had to leave with a T-shirt!

First time there. Kristy was AMAZING! My friend and I stopped there after lunch. Of course we had to get t-shirts. My friend wanted one for his daughter and she helped him figure out her size. Wereally enjoyed meeting her. I went to dinner after, and had so much fun with Kristy I went back. Thank you thank you thank you Kristy for making my first stonewall experience amazing. ❤️❤️❤️

First time at Stonewall was this last December 2023, and it was a blast!The legendary bar was hosting their weekly drag show with Hibiscus, and we arrived just in time to see her.The drinks were great, and she was on fire as she charmed the crowd and ate it up on the dance floor! I got to ask her what her favoriteplant was (snakeplant).The atmosphere was 10/10, the music was 10/10, and Hibiscus a 10/10- 10’s across the board.I highly suggest visiting at least once to see Hibiscus, or any of the other performers and bartenders, DJ’s, regular patrons there.It’s an epicenter of queer culture, and continues to stand to be.I will definitely be back!

This iconic gay bar must be visited and the good news is that they have many events going on all of the time. They have an amazing karaoke or sing along with a live pianist, burlesque nights and many things going on upstairs to check it out. I especially like the bartender Chucky who makes excellent drinks and some of the best service in the city. Still very friendly still very exciting and still has very strong drinks highly recommend.

Stopped by The Stonewall Inn tonight a little early before the crowds. Kristy was awesome. She greeted us with a smile and took our drink order right away.I always love when I get to a popular place early, with time to make conversation about the venue. Kristy took the time to give me the history of the bar and the neighborhood - thank you so much. It's not very often that a NYC bartender makes such a personal connection.Mel soon joined Kristy for the evening crowd. Mel was just as attentive and made sure that we had our drinks filled.I really appreciate the personalized service that Kristy and Mel gave us. We left as it got pretty busy and they both took the time to say goodbye to us. We felt like part of the family.Thanks Sonewall Inn. It was a great experience, thanks to your staff. I'm going to rate Stonewall with 5-stars, which was well earned.

We are a family of four and we all agree that the highlight of our six day trip to New York was a visit to The Stonewall Inn. The staff were super friendly, the cocktails were fantastic and the atmosphere was amazing. Our boys had a fabulous time playing pool and we made friends with numerous lovely people sat at the bar. The appearance of popcorn with M&Ms was delightful. When we were leaving, the owner came up to us to say goodbye, giving each of us a huge hug. What a beautiful place. Thank you for a wonderful evening, we will remember it forever x 😘

Always I have a good time at stonewall. Music is very good, the decor, drinks, the performance are super nice and it's worth it to check it out.My only down is sometimes the bartenders give you some actitud with no reasons and just some times take so long just to realize that somebody is waiting for them at the service area.

You can’t beat the home of gay pride. The bartenders were great… nice, funny, prompt and had a good conversation with our group. This is a must visit for those interested in queer history and looking for a fun, laid back gay bar.

Stonewall stands as a symbol of LGBTQ+ resilience and a pivotal moment in the history of LGBTQ+ rights. In the late 1960s, LGBTQ+ individuals faced systematic discrimination and frequent police raids on gay bars. However, June of 1969 marked a turning point. A police raid led to a three-day riot, with LGBTQ+ community members, especially transgender individuals, drag queens, and people of color, refusing to accept oppression any longer. It is a big piece of history with both good drinks and service! You must check it out!

Dis😡🤬gu😓🥵ing Google stupid blocked my comment! I don't understand why system blocked my review. This is a very bad bar with horrible bartenders! Came here with full of respect for history, but got the worst experience I've ever had.The glass was dirty, white goo, like phlegm. Yes, like phlegm. Very disgusting. Crazy!I tried to question him several times but he ignored me, he was just obsessed with his phone. I think he did it on purpose. Maybe a 30% tip doesn't satisfy him.At my asked, the female bartender changed new one for me. She thought the white slime was a lime. I mix drinks a lot and this is definitely not lime.The male bartender was concentrating on his phone and not the customers, and he was digging his ear with his hand few times. When another customer asked for a glass of water, I saw that he was pick up the glass under the sink instead of the clean glass on the shelf behind him.

One of my favourite places to go! The drinks are not badly priced. There is outdoor sitting, however, if you buy a drink from inside you can’t sit in the outdoor sitting area and and if you order drinks from the outdoor sitting area you can’t take them inside till you close out your tab. The inside bar and the outside sitting area are two different tabs. The people that work here are wonderful as always. There’s always something going on, especially during pride month. A welcoming atmosphere for sure.

I can’t believe it took me over two years to get down here! I work too much. If you work too much too, and want a fun place to chill during what little downtime you have come down to Stonewall. The drinks and service are excellent and so is Kristy if you’re lucky enough to be here when she is. Best bartender ever! I think she just made me a regular 🙌💜

We went early in the morning and it was super empty. The little park and the building; being a part of LGBTQ+ history were important and significant to see.There is some scaffolding at this time preventing one from observing this unobstructed. Still worth going to see.

Caring and inclusive bar. The vibes are immaculate. Chuck and the rest of the bar staff are wonderful and super accommodating. Had a wonderful time!

I guess it really is an iconic place, and it didn’t disappoint at all. The location is ideal, the place nicely decorated and feel very warm and friendly. The staff is kind and helpful and the drinks are good. I didn’t have to wait too long to be seated. Wish the place could offer some light food which would nicely go with the drinks. Prices are correct for the neighborhood and I actually expected to pay more than this, so I very positive surprise.I would recommend stopping by for one drink if you’re in the neighborhood.

Visited the historic bar during my recent trip to NYC. It was late afternoon so rather quieter. Only one lager on draught and it was pricey enough. Rather dark and looks more like a dive bar. The bar staff were having a whale of a time with their playlist of No Doubt. I think most come because of the significance of the place in the fight for equality and its worth it just for that.

Place was amazing. The atmosphere was great and bartenders took great care of me. Honestly if you're LGBTQIA+ and visiting NYC you need to check this place out, for one it's a historical landmark for us and two they're just great people

Cole Ash

Lots of history and the bartenders were super cool. We stopped by mid-afternoon on Saturday and this was the perfect spot to cool off from the heatwave outside. They didn't have any beer on tap, but they had a pretty standard selection of cans and bottles, plus the Stonewall IPA from Brooklyn Brewery.

We (a gay couple with a baby) were disappointed to be refused service at 3pm on a Saturday afternoon with our 10-month old son. Popped by hoping for a quick drink to cool down and were told babies are a liability and they can’t allow them even to sit with parents outside. What!? Dogs, yes - children of gay couples, no? We hope management reconsiders otherwise they run the risk of becoming a historical gay monument stuck in the past.

A solid but not superb choice for a night out in NYC. Drinks are reasonable and staff is usually nice. It can be eclectic crowd, and generally seems to draw tourists and students (sometimes straight). Music upstairs on the weekend often plays top 40. Actually prefer to go on weeknights with more locals and piano bar style upstairs.

My friend and I have just returned back to the U.K. after the most fabulous holiday to New York and to top it all it was Pride too which was the icing on the cake. We visited Stonewall Inn nearly every evening of our holiday and we found the bar to not only be iconic and stand for so much but the staff were very nice particularly the ladies during the afternoon/early evening shift. The atmosphere was fun vibrant and friendly. We had excellent evenings here. Thank you to all of you at Stonewall Inn and we are hoping to come back for Pride 2023 and we will most definitely be back to this wonderful bar 😀😀👏👏

21:39 25 Jun 22

This is really an iconic place and I recommend everyone to visit twice. Come the first time as a tourist, understand the history, visit the US National Monument across the street. Go inside and think back to what it must have been like at that time. You won't need to use a lot of imagination, I am not sure it's changed that much on the inside. Then visit a second time - come visit just like you would go out to any fun neighborhood gay bar, and enjoy the drinks, the handsome bartenders, and the fact this is a local institution for the community, and have a great time. Drinks are strong like many local places, various beers on tap, pool tables downstairs and drag queens upstairs... It's hard to ask for anything more.

They talk a big talk about inclusion and safe spaces but they don't let you in with a New York City ID because they can't make money off of booze sales. What bullcrap. What if a low income queer person without any ID needed to get away and be amongst their people for a night? What about sober queers?I was visiting NYC from Canada and wanted to visit this iconic place, but my friend (a tax paying working individual with a NY city ID) was denied entry saying they don't accept this form of ID. In her 4 years of living in NYC she's never been denied entry for her NYC ID. And to have it denied at Stonewall of all places was messed up.

As a Gay Man I was Very Disappointed in the lack of qualified bartenders.

Come here for the history but stay here for the warm atmosphere, friendly service and good drinks. I always have a great time whenever I visit The Stonewall Inn. It’s a perfect spot in west village to hang out with friends. They often have shows/events in upstair section. Overall a must visit whether you are a local or a visitor.

A friendly venue for an afternoon cocktail in a friendly atmosphere. A fair number of customers are not locals but visitors from around our country.History is a shifting lens but the place of the Stonewall Inn in the annals of gay liberation are set in stone.The establishment has been designated a New York State Historic Site (bronze plaque at the entrance).

This place is absolutely fantastic, and of course dripping in history. It was an absolute pleasure to come here, and it was a highlight of our trip to New York. The staff here were super friendly and the drinks were inexpensive. I also found that the music was amazing and the place is brilliantly decorated. This in an absolute must-go place for any LGBTQ+ people who are interested in the history of LGBTQ+ rights in the US.

For being a Historic place that I hold great value transcending gay rights and over passing hardships. It pains me to give this place a one star simply because they don’t accept ID NYC. As the only way of identification for people like me . I have no other way to validate my identify other than what the great people of this city are allowing me to have. I’ve been here before without a problem supporting my great peers like Honey Davenport and Novazcar. Unfortunately I can’t support gay places that won’t support me simply because of my legal status.

We had such a great time so we decided to go on Halloween to celebrate my birthday once again Chuck was AMAZING!!!

The bartender opened alone, and totally rocked it. I loved being somewhere with so much history. I could feel spirit of queers passed. Never been more comfortable loving on my partner than here.

Had a great experience until I got back to the hotel and saw they tried to charge me an extra $260. Be careful

What a bittersweet moment it was to be able to stand in and comfortably imbibe beverage in an institution where it all started. Their fight and sacrifice isn't in vain. Thank you for preserving this piece of history.

🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈 Im so grateful I was able to visit this historic site. I wept the most beautiful tears. The park and garden across the way was also amazing and filled with positivity and hope. Thank you to all those who had to fight for all us who continue to fight for love and equality. Love is love!

Stars are mostly for the historical significance of the place. Nowadays, it may me a good bar to just chill and have a reaaaaally relaxed time, rather than enjoying and having fun.It could really use way more staff, bartenders look perpetually busy even when the bar isn't that much.

It was my first time here and the staff was nice except for the bartenders. The second floor was so much fun but on the first floor the bartender practically ignored us even when we called him. After we finally got his attention, he told us to wait to get our drink order. We waited for almost 30 minutes and then decided to leave because he didn't acknowledged us after that. He only attended one side of the bar.

I've been there twice with my girlfriend and even though its packed again we always have a great time. Love the drag shows.

I was so impressed how friendly, kind, and quick the staff was even during Pride Weekend. Wow! It was so amazing to be able to sit there and be part of history. We only got drinks, but look forward to coming back again.

RUDE staff! The bartender completely ignored us while we waited for 30 minutes at the counter. We understood the place was relatively busy. We were more than patient with her. The several groups arriving before and after us had all be served. When we flagged her to remind her of our presence, she gave us attitude, exploding that she was serving customers sitting outdoors. All she had to say during our waiting and when we approached her would be: Sorry I’m busy and I’ll be right with you. The bartender has no sense of customer service, nor how to triage and prioritize. The usher and waiter outside were equally rude...These employees aren’t worthy of the namesake national monument status of the Stonewall Inn. Saturday, June 26, 2021, 4:30 pm ET.

Worth a visit for the history, very expensive for the drinks. $10 for a rum and coke in a tiny cup and $20 for a double rum and coke in a standard cup size. The cocktails were tiny (like small cup of water from the water cooler at the dentist waiting room tiny) and all around $15. The waiter wasn't the nicest, either, which didn't help the vibe. We left shortly after because it wasn't worth the money. The stars are really just because we love a gay business and historical icon.

I walked in and felt a wave of relief wash over me. It was such a warm environment, felt like home. Our server was friendly. Even outside of the history, it was a great bar to spend a few hours in.

Went here this past weekend with my friend after another bar we wanted to get into was fully packed. Bouncer was surprisingly very nice, as I've never been anywhere in NYC with a pleasant bouncer. She was tough but fair, if that makes sense. Anyway, we weren't expecting to get in because it was a Saturday night and this was the most famous/historic LGBTQ+ bar in NYC. We were able to get in anyway!We sat outside and the host was super kind and funny. Our waitress was very nice and patient with us not knowing right away exactly what we wanted to order for drinks. I loved the atmosphere and being in a place with other people like us, no judgement.5 stars, hell yeah!

Iconic LGBTQ+ bar! Everything is social distanced now so you can enjoy history without the covid risk. They have a lot of outdoor seating as well which is nice.

The place paved the way for my generation and many generations to come.It brings back amazing memories.One of the things Stonewall still has going for it, “I’m told from Rick the owner of sip&snip one of the best places in NewYork to get your hair done. “ if you can get an appointment “Is that Tree is still working there.The guy is a legend in himself and Stonewall is very lucky to have him.I wouldn’t recognize the place without him.If I had to give him and Stonewall a score,He and it would get nine circles. LolHope your well Tree.Danny Arzon

Historic place, no doubt about it, yet with a warm and inviting environment. Here you will find a lot of interesting people to chat or a quiet place to chill if you are not in the mood, everybody will respect you the same. People from all around the Globe come and go and the spice of life is paying a visit to this old and still strong bar.
