78 Below, both fan-friendly (no cover) & musician-friendly (a quality back-line + bands get 2-3 hrs to stretch out), is a much needed UWS live-music spot. Dig it & tip your bartender & waitress well!
Brent HutchinsonJanuary 29, 2013Taffy, is there another pl in UWS you can see awesome established bands for free? Let me know. Sodas are usually 4 bucks but when there's a band playing, sodas cost $7. "I just wanna dance!"
IfdawgAugust 1, 2012What a great place, the drummer from Wings, and one of the Blue Brothers. Best live music venue I have been to in New York so far
Mitchell ChristensonApril 21, 2013If your opinion of a music joint is based solely on whether or not you get your freebie, you're a soulless hipster who shouldn't be allowed to darken the welcome mat of ANY establishment. 78 B rocks.
Vanni MahJanuary 5, 2013nicest bartender ever. ordered French fries off the menu and they were awesome! definitely should tip well :p
The free kamikaze ain't free. It's bullshit. The bartender told me its only for one person per night. Again, bullshit.
Taffy McBusDecember 22, 2012They charge $7.50 for a glass of plain club soda...no refill..it cost more than the beers I bought my husband. Absolutely ridiculous.
Sam ZuckerMarch 23, 2013The special is a joke. They only honor the first person per night. Don't bother. This place sucks.

"From dinosaurs to space, they have it all. It’s best to have an idea of the exhibits you’d like to explore, prior to your visit. There’s a lot to see & nearly impossible to cover everything in 1 day."
