Rich GJuly 5, 2015I love this place. The music is always live. Drinks are a little over priced but otherwise this place is amazing with a rooftop and a few rooms downstairs. DJ lineups are pretty damn good.
Killer sound system. Don't buy your tickets off stubhub. They ask for the ID of whoever bought the tickets.
Tarah FeinbergJuly 29, 2015Nicely designed dance club with multiple rooms for different DJs. Perfect acoustics - hardly had to yell and ears didn't hurt, even though the music was thumping. Great rooftop as well.
The Corcoran GroupNovember 4, 2013When you think of Williamsburg, you typically don't think of dance clubs, but this one really breaks the rules. Way more low key than most Manhattan alternatives - great music and always a good time.
Time Out New YorkMarch 31, 2016Coming to Williamsburg is the Canadian producing sensation Ryan Hemsworth, known for his hits on albums by Waka Flacka and Frank Ocean. Come enjoy the slick and sunny beats of one of Canada's best. Read more
Julien PerrièreAugust 28, 2015Great techno club - people, venue, prices, sound system. All Funktion One equiped, well calibrated, however volume is usually too high between 2 to 4, bring some earplugs. Still, great sound system.
Jade CFebruary 22, 2016Came here twice: once for Madeon, once for Bonobo. Fantastic club with a Berlin vibe (Tresor, anyone?) Cocktails are $12 and coat check $4. Can't miss this place if you're ever in Williamsburg...
dj harv BanningMay 10, 2013THE place to get tuned up - heaven on earth for discerning quality ears - definitely the "go to" place in the world this moment to experience the best house / tech out there. Excellent people!
99UApril 22, 2014Boasting one of the best sound systems in the world, Output is our favorite dance club in the city, hands down. Plus, there’s a killer roofdeck with incredible views. See outputclub.com for showtimes.
Great venue with deep dark beats. It's never packed like sardines due to capacity limits. Get there early (before 10 PM) if you haven't bought a ticket or face waiting outside for over an hour.
Jessica WDecember 12, 2013One of the best venues in the tristate area. Great sound system, nice bouncers, no VIP. It's the glory days of Manhattan clubbing transported to Brooklyn. So honored I was able to see HudMo play there
Adrienne DyenOctober 18, 2013Great crowd, even the staff and security are nice! Came from NJ and def love this atmosphere, thought about coming back tonight! Drinks are a lil expensive but that was my only complaint. Love.
A striking resemblance to a certain Tresor, Berlin. What a better compliment? Line-up is always on top: M. Dettmann, J. Hopkins, Klock, Scuba... Best post-industrial rave this side of the Atlantic.
Jessica PalladinoAugust 19, 2014Amazing sound system & chill vibe. You don't have to dress up either, totally laid back club but no pictures or video recording otherwise they'll kick you out. Drinks are overpriced so roll instead 😶
Elie BleierNovember 10, 2014Incredible sound system, awesome lights. Panther Room provides a more intimate vibe. Pretty rooftop view. Summer day parties are a bit bougie but fun nonetheless.
Alex PyatetskyJuly 23, 2015I generally don't go to clubs anymore, but this one is sufficiently focussed on music and the interior is an adventure. Function one sound system. Actually 2 clubs. Make sure to discover the roof.
Browns Town Music LLCJanuary 12, 2014Great club. Wonderful atmosphere, dope music and the staff is very attentive and polite. Will definitely be back especially since we drove all the way from New Jersey to Brooklyn
Anastasia EnotAugust 24, 2015Great club with AC and not too crowded, especially on Friday or Saturday night (depends on the event though). The rooftop is nice. Great djs.
THE TECHNO PLACE in New York. Expensive tickets, no smoking, no alcohol after 3, fancy venue. Completely different scene from Berlin but the Djs and music are samely amazing
LDecember 28, 2016Got busy early, good house music, everyone dancing. Awesome lighting rig and nice layout with balcony surrounding the dancefloor. $4 coatcheck. Glass of Prosecco only $10, beer $9.- Fizzie WaterDecember 1, 2015No vip bullshit. No dress code. Just one of the best sounding clubs in the US with a great atmosphere and consistently good bookings.
Danielle FAugust 31, 2014Really fun spot for day drink and dancing on the roof. House music and electronica at night inside. Amazing Bolivian food on the roof!- Time Out New YorkJuly 18, 2013This multiroom Billyburg boîte plays host to NYC’s top party crews. Enjoy the killer sound system and stunning view. And be sure to note the strict no-photos policy. Read more
AmateurConciergeFebruary 18, 2017The epicenter of Williamsburg nightlife with solid DJ programming. Pop into the Panther Room jus to see what's up. Sometimes it's bumping more than the main stage
Awesome Funktion One system. Best minimal techno line-up in North America. Sexy, hip, friendly crowd. Respectful staff. All ages & races feel welcomed.
Once you get past the long lines, it's worth it! Good people and good vibes. Fun dancing and loud music.
Jeff ChattertonMay 21, 2013Sound system is INCREDIBLE, drinks a little pricey but definitely an amazing space. How a proper NYC club should be.
Simon LafontOctober 24, 2015Great sound system but sometimes too loud and ear protection costs $2. Super great lighting job, people are nice and willing to dance. AC can be too powerful if you are downstairs.
Jenny SorensenApril 8, 2015When your favorite DJs are playing in NYC, this is where you need to see them. Output pulls the best names in the business, and the sound is second to none. Read more
Kevin KearneyFebruary 6, 2015If you're old enough to feel like you just walked into a Laser Tag arena just start drinking heavily. There's Bullet Rye in the Panther Room (don't let them mix you a drink unless you like Pixie Stix)
The staff is courteous. Sound is highly calibrated and clean due to massive Funktion One system, space is nicely laid out and dark. Leave the cameras at home, there's a strict no photography policy!
Mike UreñaMarch 29, 2013Second time here and nothing like the bad reviews have described. Must have worked out the kinks. No wait in line but maybe that's only after midnight. Great sound and lineup. Hope it stays that way.
JonNovember 23, 2014nice place. No photos allowed inside so you better just leave your camera at home. Can get quite pack though so be prepared.
EatMeDrinkMeNYCSeptember 2, 2013Tough door for a Brooklyn spot, but the sound system is solid. Ample space to get your dance on They even have a quiet bar where you can get you unleash your mojo.
Saarim ZamanJune 21, 2015The sound system (always) and the artists (sometimes) are the only reasons for the $15 cocktail you are going to buy here. I've had good times here.
Hands down my fave club! Never a dull moment and if the dancefloor is too much for you, nothing like taking a break on the roof.
Denis SosnovtsevNovember 24, 2013There's a fireplace in the Panther room; if you just spent 30 minutes in line freezing your ass off, it's a good place to start.
Jeff Mendels🐸hnJune 27, 2014One of the best venues I've seen in New York. Each bar feels perfectly placed and the acoustics are incredible.
Channing RitterJanuary 2, 2015Feels like a proper European club experience--great music, great lights, lines lines lines but it moves
Be sure to check out the rooftop when the weather is nice. It offers great views of the New York skyline.
David BanJune 15, 2013If you're a resident of N. Brooklyn or simply possess even an ounce of self respect, I beg you, stay far, far away.
Turan YurdakulSeptember 21, 2014Great sound system and good music. They say that it's forbidden to take photos, but you can see that everybody is taking photos for Snapchat.
Molly EganJuly 28, 2013Great sound/music. No signs to rooftop but it's the door right of 2nd flr bar. Beware @ 4am you are stuck wherever u are-if on roof you'll be told to enter panther rm which is cool but not the output.
Nicholas VanderBorghAugust 14, 201340 bucks to get in surprised me. Great sound system. As with any club I recommend looking up the djs. i got there early empty busboy tried taking my full not even touched 13 dollar drink. Really?
J.M. SaponaroJuly 2, 2015Great rooftop, big club, usually good deep house Music. Big plus fort the secret "panther room"
Mario SalinasMarch 17, 2013Saw Digweed tear it up, amazing sound system. Club was uber packed but awesome time nonetheless! Def will hit it up again in the future
Yarin LAugust 9, 2014Cool area, amazing sound system and a nice rooftop, probably the best club in Brooklyn👌
Karen LeeLeeNovember 9, 2013a club that actually cares about sound quality... love it!!! hope they bring other genres of music here soon :)

"Honestly this place sucks! The bouncers are super aggressive (expect a pat down and a thorough bag search) and they charge $10 for LUKEWARM mixed drinks. Do yourself a favor and skip this club."
