The House of Yes Review

I love this place! I've been going here for several years since they were at the previous location. I took Some aerial lessons with Anya back then and I continue to go to their interesting and unique events.

This music venue has 2 rooms, the bar room, and the stage room. Our party had a cocktail hour in the bar with music provided by friends of the main act. Once the doors to the stage/dance floor, we expanded into the space, adorned with go-go cages and scaffolding balconies, and a second bar.

Love this place. We come around once a month. Is much better during themed events, like queer night. It brings a friendlier crowd. Regular nights are still pretty good but it feels more like a standard club. There's a smoking area where is easy to chat with people, to take a break from the music or make new friends.

I love this place, especially RAID (Random Acts of Irrelevant Dance) were our dancers (BTW, I Love, love, love all of them), DJ Adrian, my lovely photographers from scene snaps. This past weekend was no exception to the craziness that happens monthly on the first Saturday of the month. My first experience was from Prom last May (the first one! woo.)

Aucha cool non judgement environment. Lots of culture and diversity. Had a blast!

House of Yes has always been a magical place, but I was truly surprised by the magic they created for a corporate event that I planned. The space was fantastic, bartenders were friendly and quick, the door (Crimson) was courteous and attentive. The performances were top notch, and the production team really did a great job of helping us realize our theme. I highly recommend, not just for a whimsical time, but for corporate events too!

Hell of a place. If you like to dance, and are open to a wild night - give it a go. Also, it's well worth the effort to get dressed up on theme.

We have seen many shows in House of Yes for many years, since 2010, almost from the time when the venue was barely known... and really liked the variety and crazy shows which were very well organized and entertaining.
We recently went to see 'Filthy Pony' show on July 22, 2018. The show was worst than an 'F'. The show started at 8:20 with a 8 min piece and then there was a 20 min of closed curtain break and then at 8:50 they had another 5-8 min piece by the same group of artists. It seemed like they had no other performers that evening. The house was full and the waits of 20 min was painful between 2 acts. What ever happened to the quality and integrity of the events that we used to enjoy in the past at the House of Yes? It was nothing like what they advertised It. We spent $50 for 2 tickets (fees included) and felt cheated. It was such a waste of time. They should change their name to House Of Thieves. And we weren't the only ones, many other audience members expressed their irritatation and unhappiness on the quality and the flow of the show. We used to recommend house of yes to everyone. Not going to do that any more!

Love the inclusion and love presented in this space

Absolutely the Best club in NYC.
Inclusive crowd.
Great shows, good DJ
Bar staff has a little attitude, which is completely unnecessary.
If pouring drinks and being personable is a problem, try another career.

My first time attending a Poetry Brothel it was a nice.... But different... Interesting experience.

Great venue, shows, ambiance. A must-see if you re in the city and looking for a place to go have fun and see amazing performers.

Awesome place full of magic! If you re looking for a crazy night HOY is the place!

House of Yes is one of my favorite places to go! It's great to have a safe place to dress up and celebrate life!

Great Place ... People are So Stylish and Fun. Staff was Great and the Bouncers were So Friendly. The Place is like a Wonderland ... like your Walking into a Funhouse.

Fun place to visit, especially when you re dating an alcoholic drug addict.

This place is amazing. However it is not for the shy!

The best night club that I went to in my entire life since the staff is very friendly and the security guards too. I would recommend it to everyone around New York State in general.

Costumes, dancing, art, aerial performances, etc. Make an effort wear a costume, face paint, party clothes. Don t dress like you re going to a regular bar or just came from work. This is what you imagine when you think NYC avant-garde night life.

Guys @Indians who have been commenting regarding the recent news, the club owners have apologized regarding the issue and have promised an immediate change of the washroom. With out any degree of complete information stop commenting. Instead appreciate a sincere apology from the management.

It is a blast. Definitely keep an eye on the bartenders who will take advantage of the drunk people and mark up your tips if you forget to finish at the register or custom price drinks. I watched it happen to a few people ahead of me who weren't paying attention. Other than that this place rocks.

House of Yes is always fun & interesting been here a number of times, love the chill laidback vibe of this club, music is pretty good the random performances are always entertaining...I enjoy the Libertine vibe I get from this club which keeps bringing me back. Staff has always been helpful & nice.

I absolutely love the free space and captivating artistry

Awesome place to party and just let loose. Went for my first time on pride it was so fun but make sure you purchase a ticket because the wait in the line is long

Amazing artwork, installation atmosphere and crew! Place to go!

Was there for Little Cinema which was great.
Be sure to see Naughty Circus. It's Vegas quality entertainment right here in NYC

A place to either see an odd show that makes you laugh or think. Or spend the evening dancing your socks off. Always a theme to play with that sparks creativity. I especially appreciate the dancers and acrobats that seem to always be giving it their all. Never had a bad night here and never bored coming back. Always a new look and/or theme.

Yes! -terday has been one of the best times I had, in a long time. For the free block party.. The greatest. House, disco. R&B Electro. And more, music. Will never disappoint at this club venue period!!!!

This place is a home away from home! My FAVORITE PLACE to GO DANCING in THE WORLD!! Especially the BAD BEHAVIOR PARTY! It's a QUEER DANCE PARTY and what FUN it is to see EVERYONE DANCING!

AND that's JUST dance parties! The monthly Variety Shows are EPIC! Blunderland, Far Out with Fou York (that's a clown show), and EXTRA Burlesque are the highlights!

Come to House of Yes for the ENTERTAINMENT and stay for the INCLUSIVE CREATIVE COMMUNITY!

Most unique and amazing place I have ever been as far as night life is concerned. My fiancee and I absolutely adore it.

This place is the center around which many scenes orbit. If you like to dance you have to come here.

Have you ever been to Burning Man festival? Well you ll get the same vibe of love and sharing here. I recommend to try it out!

If you don t have a ticket, you aren t let in till 1:30.
The vibe is definitely unique! I went during their Valentine s Day event, and while interesting, wasn t a big fan of the music. Didn t feel like dancing music.
Will be interested in trying again to see if this place is more for the eyes or the ears

Never a disappointment ! Go with an open mind and experience whAt this place has to offer.

A truly unique experience. Its a must-see in my book.

Very interesting place, great theme, amazing service and friendly crowd. Music was alright. Look at the site and see what is going on that night, get into it (costume or whatever ), and it will be much more fun.

Only been here once, and the music was great. I went for the DJs who I knew would be good, but the crowd and venue left much to be desired. The runway in the middle.of the dance floor that felt like a fire hazard... the excess numbers of people crowding the floor spilling drinks... while folks who actually like to dance get pushed to the side or have to fight for space all night long. The aerial performers/gogo dancers were fun (one aerialist in particular was phenomenal--queen ravendem). But I wouldn't go back. It's just not for me.

Awesome place! Decor is so cool! Can't wait to go back.

Awesome venue for partying with lots of great sculptures and decor!

Great parties - forward thinking space that actively educates and advocates for a consent-based party culture. Crowds can be hit or miss but this is one of the best spaces to party in bk regardless

I went for vogue night and had the best time of my life. The ppl were awesome venue was on point drinks were hitting and bathrooms were always available. In really loved the location.

What a wonderful place to dance, drink, watch, get mesmerized, and just be whoever or whatever you want to be that night! At House of Yes, the air is filled with glitter and music. A true piece of the heart of Brooklyn. Great spot for queer and non- mono-heteronormative folks. The music varies but is usually more than danceable. Dressing up is often mandatory.

The experience I had wasn't very good for a new year's event. They way over booked and lost my jacket. I could see having a lot of fun, but they need to organize for big events.

Yaaaaaazzz!!! For any party people, it would be a crime to be in NYC and not visit this place. Vibes for the win!

Free spirited with an amazing atmosphere. A gem in Brooklyn -- Definitely check out their Rollerwave skate party

I have fun everytime I am at the House of Yes. It is a wonderful place that should be experienced by all. Great atmosphere, and Wonderful people.

Not sure if here I can find the beautiful alien guangxi human bean again but xie xie :-)

Wonderful venue. Had so much fun here. Didn't feel too crowded and the bathroom lines were fine.

Incredible Variety Show ay the House of Yes! Quality acts, clean space, and unbeatable price. Can't wait to go back!

It's a young or gay crowd, nice party people go there

House of yes is a fun place with mostly friendly staff! Many bottles are definitely over price for it being Brooklyn. But the atmosphere is great. Follow ups are always nice but events should be specifically labeled as such. I went to an event not knowing it was specifically a gay event and did not want to leave abruptly. It was a fun party just not my scene. These things should be pointed out at the door.

A beautiful flurry of sites in sounds. It feels like how you would imagine your favorite place to be as a child and everything that clubbing should be. Would a 127% recommend to everyone to go at least once in their lifetime. The best thing you could do for yourself!!!

If you're looking for somewhere to wear sequins and glitter and dance, look no further. The House of Yes is for you. It's worth the cost, but don't expect to get home until 4 or 5 am!

Great time on Thursday night for Madonna Rama for dirty Thursday! My first time attending with friends who have been many times. I had the absolute best time . Thank you guys for being the open and supportive lgbtg+ and above friendly . Your dj is amazing and decorations was spectacular and I will definitely be coming back and recommending to others ! Edit : just went to Hot mess on Wednesday night this past week ! 2ne time there now ! It was great I added photos

Great place with great vibes. If your trying to experience an alternative club, in comparison to places in meat packing this is a great option. Although they do offer table service tables are not the main focus like many other places in NYC. In addition they offer a bit of everything literally, so everyone should be able to find a scene that fits them. Drinks are also very good!

Great place to let go and have fun during Friday/Saturday nights. The music is good enough to dance and they host a lot of theme parties

If you've ever been in Meow Wolf in Santa Fe, it has that vibe. Awesome dance spot and very unique.

One of the best clubs I've ever been to. The staff made it an awesome experience and there is just so many details about this place I liked and I'm not really a guy that goes to clubbing anymore. If you ever go to Bushwick, this is the place you really should experience.

Came for the Dirty Circus show, and we'll never visit NYC without coming back! So much fun, super welcoming and safe space to be. I wish more bars cared about consent as much as House of Yes. Also, they have a self-service water station...why isn't that a thing in every bar??

One of the best clubbing experiences I've had, super friendly crowd and vibe, and a fun venue to boot.

This place si cool the lights decoration is so cool and the bathroom so so nice.

2 different years ...different friends & events .. but had a good time ...def issa vibe

Great party place, really fun and weird! Just the way I like it!

Beautiful vibes and place! We came for a Deep Beat Yoga class that happens every Sunday. Had good fun and workout. This place was on my bucket list for some time.

Must visit!

Saw images online about your VIP rest room. You guys are hurting religious sentiments. Please remove the images and start respecting other religions. "Food for thought"

Very fun experience. I went when they were having a disco skating event. I had a lot of fun.

Had a great experience seeing one of Cardi B's dancers getting eaten out onstage, Lol. Security was very handsy tho. Uncomfortable check-in, otherwise cool!

The dance events here are amazing. The security/door-men are also super duper nice here!

I've been going here since 2016 and each event has been unique and exciting. I always try to take NYC visitors to House of Yes because it's such a vibrant and memorable experience.

Too expensive these days, and they let too many people in for the size of the space. It used to be so awesome but I feel like they re more about making money than the safety and happiness of their guests at this point.

Fun fun fun, you could not have a boring experience here! Too fabulous!

Great vibes. My friends and I haven't experienced anything but fun events in this place.

Great atmosphere, fantastic for practicing dance moves. Don't expect it to be posh, and be prepared to see anything happen.

Yes!

Burner crowd and open/ accepting of all people. Great consent policy, consistently amazing events.

Its a weird and funky place. The staff from the ticket booth down to the bartender weren't very welcoming and had additudes. I went to one of their shows and it was good. I didnt stay for the after party though.

Really cool spot. A little rudimentary in terms of stage tech, but they make do!

Cute space, strong drinks. Kind of off the beaten path. Wasn't very crowded for a nice Friday night. The smoking area was actually more packed than the club.

Really fun and exciting spot here. A lot of cool and interesting people from all walks of life come here. As you come in it s free for men and women usually and drinks are reasonably priced. They have performers. And work

A wild night is always to be had. The have amazing dancers, fun music, good drinks, and a welcoming, safe atmosphere. I love that they are explicit about consent and are there for people to have a good time all around. I would absolutely go back when I'm in Brooklyn again.

Can't wait for them to open off the Jefferson stop!
One of my favorite places, ever! I have had some of the best times of my life in the old venue. Can't wait to see the new spot and some new shows!
