    We went to support a friend doing a solo show and this place was great! They had a dueling pianos event right after which looks like a lot of fun. I would recommend this place for anyone going to NYC for a fun place to hang out!

  • Review 2 (2024-10-12 - Rating: 5)

    What an amazing piano bar experience! This place is a true gem in NYC. The unique concept of two grand pianos with incredibly talented players creates an unforgettable atmosphere. We were lucky enough to visit on a night when off-Broadway singers were there, turning the evening into an amazingly impromptu performance.Originally planning to bar-hop, we were so captivated that we stayed all night. Its a must-visit destination for anyone in New York City looking for an authentic and extraordinary night out.Whether youre a local or a tourist, dont miss this one-of-a-kind piano bar. Its the kind of place that reminds you why NYC is the entertainment capital of the world. Highly recommend!

    What an awesome place, fun atmosphere, great vibes, dueling pianos are phenomenal, food and drinks are yummy yummy, love the list of musician named cocktails, when the crowd gets going and singing along with the dealing pianos you are in the most awesome place in NYC, Hells Kitchen district. I highly suggest to make the trip and visit you will not be disappointed.

    Justin was friendly and fantastic. He was so sweet, made our night. He found us salt when the bar didn’t have any; he got us a water when we requested even when it was crazy busy. Highly recommend!

    Absolutely amazing piano bar. Highly recommended. An amazing evening. We’ll be back on our next visit to NYC!

  • Review 9 (2024-06-14 - Rating: 5)

    Came with a friend to the dueling pianos with Alan Bukoweicki and Matt Kelley, and it was one of the best nights Ive ever had in NYC. The venue is so intimate, the food was good bar food, and the servers were great. The dueling pianos show was SO FUN! I cant recommend enough!

  • Review 10 (2024-12-05 - Rating: 5)

    I had a great evening at Bar 9! Justin is the best behind the bar. Great live music as well!

  • Review 11 (2024-07-07 - Rating: 5)

    The most incredible night at Bar 9! Staff, music, doormen were all the best we experienced in NYC. Couldnt recommend it enough if you want a fun filled night in midtown!

  • Review 12 (2022-03-26 - Rating: 5)

    Extra cold beers, a pool table, snacks, & a side of karaoke show tunes - couldnt ask for more! dont expect fancy though, its the perfect kind of dive: a little grunge and grit with great bartenders. so happy bar nine is still alive and made it through the panini.

  • Review 13 (2024-08-08 - Rating: 5)

    Bar9 is the perfect place to go with your friends for a chill night with some live music. Shoutout to Jake for the great vodka crans and Sydney for AMAZING live music. Pop in for a great time!!

    I went there on St Paddy’s Day with some friends to celebrate my birthday and we had a great time! David Kelly was at the piano that night and did an amazing job singing and engaging the crowd. Definitely will go back.

    We went here to celebrate a future bride as part of a bachelorette weekend and WE HAD AN AMAZING TIME. The performers; Matt and Alan, were so talented and fun to watch! It was one of the most interactive dueling piano bar performances Ive ever been a part of. I would ABSOLUTELY HIGHLY recommend coming and enjoying the show because you will definitely have a great time.

  • Review 18 (2024-07-07 - Rating: 5)

    Went in March and had one of the most fun nights in my life. Brought my mother the second time I went, and she said, “Tonight was one of the best nights of my life!” Thank you Bar 9!!

  • Review 19 (2024-01-15 - Rating: 5)

    The evening was so much fun! A must do in NYC! My daughter surprised us and paid the bill over the phone and the staff kept it a secret until the end of the night! Great night thank you!

  • Review 20 (2022-02-01 - Rating: 5)

    Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a wild night out! The dueling piano shows are a ton of fun, and as a musician myself I was seriously impressed at how they were able to keep the energy dialed up to 11 for four straight hours.Food is your typical bar fare; I ordered the sliders which were very tasty. Drink selection/prices are solid as well.

  • Review 21 (2023-04-01 - Rating: 5)

    One of the best down to earth bars in NYC, the chemistry of the 2 duelli g pianists is something to behold, excellent vibe, located in the Hells Kitchen area of mid town Manhattan, make sure you book in advance otherwise you maybe disappointed

    Justin is so cool, made me a drink that wasn’t on the menu and knew what i was talking about even though it was kinda niche.

  • Review 24 (2024-06-17 - Rating: 5)

    A hidden gem in nyc! I’ve been here quite a few times over the years including celebrating my 25th bday here with many friends and coming last weekend with my parents (I’m 30 now). It’s always a fun time - extremely talented musicians, good drinks, nice people. I never hesitate when anyone wants to come here. Nothing fancy but tons of character.

  • Review 25 (2022-06-17 - Rating: 5)

    Great dueling piano avenue.. great gathering place for food and fun. Pool table is a great place to gather. Private events can be scheduled. Talented performer and the owner Steve is ready to make you feel part of the “Cheers” ambiance. Great find in NYC midtown!

  • Review 26 (2019-08-09 - Rating: 5)

    Too much fun!!! Pay the dueling pianos players and you can have a great night singing along. These guys know every song known to man. Relaxed atmosphere with good music and great audience participation. Have fun, go to Bar 9!

  • Review 28 (2017-05-18 - Rating: 4)

    Fantastic place for dueling pianos! Be sure to check their website for when they play (and end). The night we were there, it stopped at 10pm (which is early for NYC). Good drink specials also. They played our requests and we had a blast.

  • Review 29 (2024-01-15 - Rating: 5)

    I hosted a surprise 30th birthday for one of my old college friends at Bar Nine and we had the absolute BEST time!!! The bar’s manager couldn’t have been more helpful and kind and helped me set up the whole party for a group of 15! The drinks were awesome, the service was amazing, and the music was top notch! We had the best time and can’t wait to visit again soon! Thank you Bar Nine for an incredible night with all my college friends!!

  • Review 30 (2023-06-11 - Rating: 5)

    Favorite bar in nyc. dueling pianos are super fun, the drinks are reasonable, and the bar isn’t overly crowded! feels like a hidden gem! $10 cover on a friday

  • Review 31 (2024-12-07 - Rating: 5)

    Vibes are great! We loved Denise as our waitress!

  • Review 32 (2018-03-25 - Rating: 4)

    Went to watch a bluegrass band. Beer was reasonably priced, and although I didnt get food, it did look good. The bathrooms in the basement could use a little work.

  • Review 33 (2018-04-12 - Rating: 5)

    Definitely the highlight of my trip to NYC. I went to Bar 9 on a Wednesday to take advantage of the buffet wings special. The wings were great! I tried to sample all 10 flavors but could only make it to 5. I recommend trying the Hennessey Pina Colada...definitely one of the best youll ever drink.The best part of the night was the dueling pianos. Those ladies can sing!! Theyve got an extensive repertoire of songs that spans quite a few years. The staff were also amazing. Tables were all booked up and the guy at the was able to secure one for us in seconds. The waitress was lovely and checked up on us regularly to ensure that we were enjoying our night. Bar 9 is a must visit!!!

  • Review 34 (2023-12-31 - Rating: 5)

    This place is my new happy place! 10/10. Awesome sing-along with the talented dueling pianos, very friendly staff and incredibly hard working owner- I wish the whole world was like this! The chicken fingers were better than chick-filet! We had a blast!

  • Review 35 (2024-11-02 - Rating: 5)

    First off I had really great service here. I entered Friday 6pm when they opened. They created a cocktail for me called fire island. It was amazing highly recommend it! My friend and I had alot of fun playing on the brand new pool table. The food was great we split a cheeseburger and chicken tenders. Cant go wrong with simple bar food. It was a great spot to pregame before I went to my concert. I definitely need to come back here

    Fun space. Dueling pianos is a must do whether you’re visiting or a local

  • Review 42 (2022-12-20 - Rating: 5)

    First night in NYC and my wife and I were looking for a good time. A friend of mine recommended we go online and reserve a table at Bar Nine and enjoy the dueling pianos. We have seen a lot of shows in NYC, but nothing compares to the good time we had at this dueling piano club. The front door bouncer and manager treated us like celebrities, after I screwed up our reservation date. These guys made sure we had a good time and enjoy the show. The performers were absolutely top notch and every single request, they covered those songs almost as good as the original artist! They had everyone singing and dancing with it five minutes into the show and this was a Thursday night. If we lived in NYC, we would go broke going there every night. The energy is infectious and the drinks / food was delicious! I dont care how challenging of a day you have or problems you may be facing, going to Bar Nine is freaking good therapy! My wife and I were so horse from singing, we had to use sign language to communicate with the Uber driver! Its better than five stars and more fun than 100 stars. Go to Bar Nine, and be prepared to dance, sing and have a great time!

    Was visiting NYC for the weekend and saw this bar as I was walking by and decided to stop in. It had a live show and was packed. Had great vibes and the crowd was singing with the band. The bartender was pretty quick and I got a blue moon for $9. Made my way to the back, and hung out by the pool table. Overall a nice bar near Times Square.

    Excellent place, great atmosphere and good prices on beers. Saturday very entertaining live music from 60,s to now.

  • Review 50 (2022-11-22 - Rating: 5)

    Had an absolute blast here with a group of friends/family to celebrate my 30th birthday! The musicians were great, and played a ton of our requests. They openly acknowledged my birthday, as well as any other attendees birthdays or special events. Our waitress was amazing and there was never a long wait for our drink/food orders. Customer service helped me reserve a front table in advanced ahead of time. Their weekend night shows also start at 8:30pm, where others start so late, like past 10:30pm. I appreciate this because Im not sure I could have convinced my whole group to do this if it were past 10pm or something. I would absolutely come back in the future!

  • Review 51 (2024-12-06 - Rating: 5)

    I was there last week, my server Denise recommended we try the Chicken Parmesan & Chicken Francese I certainly did not expect that type of food from a bar, when I tell you my husband said it was the best Chicken Parmesan it was definitely worth it; As I myself fell in love with the Chicken Francese it truly reminded me of home. As for Aaron the head chef I cannot express how delicious this meal was and how the service was excellent . Next time we’re in town we will be coming back. I’d also like to add the music was great. The ambience was more than what I could of imagined being in a bar. I highly recommend Bar Nine to anyone who is in town or from the area looking for great food and amazing service.

    Good food, nice place to hang out

  • Review 74 (2024-09-22 - Rating: 4)

    Bar Nine is a fantastic spot if you are looking for a night out with friends. The pianists do an exceptional job at entertaining the crowd and sing every song with full commitment as well as interact with the crowd so well. The ONLY downfall to this place is the other entertainment that tries to happen during the show. I believe hes the owner of the bar, always tries to be the entertainment as well and in the most obnoxious ways. Ive been multiple times to bar nine because how great the pianists are but every time I go, the owner finds some way to put the attention on himself at some point. This last time I went, he brought a bat out and was hitting the stage during the song before he cheats. I could tell I wasnt the only one in the crowd that was watching him and thinking, WTF is this guy doing? Not much later, he brought out a bottle of alcohol and lit it on fire and pretended he was going to swallow it. The guy acts like a college kid starving for attention and cant help himself everytime Ive gone which is a shame because everything else about the place is great. Let the professionals be the entertainment, they do a FANTASTIC job of it. Stop stepping out randomly and feeling like you need some of the attention too. Again, the ACTUAL entertainment is amazing and Alan is one of the best performers there. Im so excited everytime I find out hes going to be one of the pianists. I just hope the owner realizes at some point that people bought tickets to see the performers, not him.

    Definitely a super chill place in hells kitchen , live music most days and piano bar , the holiday drinks are really fun and tasty , surely a place to hang low key, the one gripe i had was this place does cover charge , i think that kinda stop me from going back, i feel like noone especially in hells kitchen needs to pay cover charge since there are soo many options, soo maybe if they remove that the bar would be more crowded .. other than that a really chill atmosphere.

    It’s a great fun filled dueling piano bar, drinks were good, we paid for better seats which were kinda worth it, piano players were excellent but I didn’t have venmo (Australian) or cash for requests

  • Review 92 (2017-01-08 - Rating: 4)

    Its dueling pianos which is fun, but the space is laid out the best they could, not ideal. No real space for dancing and the drinks are expensive, but not terrible for city pricing. They do a good job for bachelorette parties, Ive hosted one there, but not somewhere Id spend my average Saturday evening

  • Review 97 (2019-03-26 - Rating: 4)

    Bar Nine is tons of fun, and I look forward to returning! The staff members are exceptionally friendly and welcoming, trying to accommodate each customer as well as possible. Drinks are of better-than-average quality, with a nice selection of beers and ciders on tap and top-shelf spirits. Drink sizes, actual pour sizes, and prices are largely as expected for an entertainment venue, perhaps a little better. I will point out that the Groupon redemption policy and process is a little unclear, even after the limited explanation by the server, but I did ultimately receive goods and services greater in value than the cost of the Groupon voucher.There is a free, but mandatory, coat check on performance nights, but it is a great help, not an inconvenience. One of my favorite employees in the entire place was the coat check attendant. He took a few moments to engage each patron in conversation, while not decreasing his pace or efficiency. He also kindly suggested each customer take a photo of the claim check, so that the articles could be found easily if the ticked were to become misplaced. Great idea! So simple! Even when the attendant had to walk into the bar to request a patron check a coat that was brought inside without being checked, he was polite with each customer, even when he could tell they were lying to him or trying to sweet-talk him.The dueling pianos show was a lot of fun! The pianists are enjoyable entertainers, playing well and employing just enough of the right types of patter for the crowd in attendance. This is not the best dueling piano Ive seen, in terms of musical quality, but it is one of the best overall dueling piano performances Ive attended. I would, however, note that it would be great if the drummer learned the words to more of the songs, and also if he knew the songs well enough to play more suitably for each song, instead of doing nearly everything with basic, little-changing, heavy-handed, regular rock beats. I really like the British piano players drumming, though, when he took the kit for a song.

    As always, fun experience at Bar9! Service is courteous and prompt, drink prices are fair and of course the dueling pianos always do an excellent job making it a fun night for everyone singing songs we all know and love.

    We went to join in on Drunken Shakespeare, which is once a month on Monday nights. The drinks were reasonably priced, however there was only one person to cover both the bar and tables. So... services were a little slow. We had a blast regardless!

    A very chill spot and we really loved hanging out here on a Sunday night when most of the city was quite. The bartender was very sweet and offered us to get any food from outside if we like only because the kitchen was closed. We loved the vibe in the place and good selection of drinks here.

    Fun spot in Hells Kitchen area. They have a pretty decent HH. Fun atmosphere. They have a pool table, darts, skeeball and beer pong in the back. They also have $3 taco tuesdays and unlimited wings night on wednesdays. They also do dueling piano shows here on certain nights. You usually have to pay and reserve the seats, but if you show up early and stick to the bar area, you can enjoy the show without reservations.

    Weds is Unlimited wings for $15. They came in a timely manner. They give you five at a time and I went through 3 different flavors. They do have live bands so it can get loud at times.They have games in the back such as skee ball, pool, and darts which is fun to play with some drinking buddies.

I am from Mexico and this is legit. I wouldnt expect to find such delicious food in bar in hells kitchen, but bingo!They have a photobooth and skeeball, I suck ai it but had funTry the micheladas (spicy) If you dont know what it is go find out :) (or google)

    We chose front of house seats not really knowing what we were getting. However, we were so surprised to be right against the stage. It was a wonderful time with an amazing atmosphere. The staff was so friendly, and the music was amazing. My friend and I were so thankful we chose to try out Bar Nine during our travels. A must see in New York. Definitely recommend. If I ever find myself back in New York, I will for sure be back to Bar Nine!

  • Review 142 (2019-11-25 - Rating: 5)
