The retro club is a nice place but they need to replace the coat check lady because she is super nastyand gives everyone the wrong coat check number!!!Avoid taking a coat or jacket, so you dont have to deal with the nasty coat-check woman!!!!!!!!!!!!!?The lady really doesnt enjoy her job, you can see it all over her FACE, she was not welcoming at all and has a nasty attitude, tried asking her which was my number and she refused to answer me and told me to pick a number from the multiple coats she had already checked in!!!!!!!!!I was given the wrong number and had to point out which coat was mine!!!

An unpretentious gem! This retro club has an amazing crowd - diverse, inclusive, and full of great energy. Coming from a native New Yorker, It’s the real New York vibe, and we had an incredible time dancing all night. A heads-up: it’s cash-only at the door, but that just adds to the retro charm in the best way. Highly recommend for a fun, laid-back night out!

So much fun! The vibes, people and music were great! Only thing I will say is they should say that this place isnt a club. Its a bar that becomes a night club. The DJ should brush up on his music and needs to learn how to blend songs. I requested Stevie B Spring Love and he looked at me like he never heard of him.

Absolutely the MOST FUN!! Grab your gang and GO!! Great music, we never sat down, danced for hours and hours!! Jeff is an amazing DJ and manager, reservations were easy to make and only a $10 entrance fee. It is all ages over 21 so i brought my daughters and their friends. Great crowd, awesome vibes, really the best time. We can’’t wait to go back again and again!! They do shout outs and celebrations if you want, but why wait for an event? just go on any saturday night!!

Went with a group of friends on a Saturday night and we had a fun time!! Mostly music from the 70s and 80s (which we wanted as it was a great change of scene from other clubs in the city) and we loved it! Lots of dancing, fun disco balls and lights. There was a fun MJ impersonator and a few more contemporary songs. We kept singing even after we left! Thanks, Jeff!

It was my first time there and its a new location for them as well.I had phenomenal time!!!!The bartender Matt is pure gold !!!Great crowd, awesome DJ and just an overall welcoming, party vibe.Matt the bartender is a cut above the rest!! The club shares the space with Hurleys and one can dine will listening to the music with a great view of the dance floor. The dance floor is a decent size, relative to space. It stayed crowded the whole time I was there, filled with happy dancing people!!!!All the staff I encountered were personable, professional and polite.Im going back very soon and Ill be adding pics. Check this place out and dont forget to check in with Matt the bartender.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We came for a birthday party and left all smiles! Music is great - mix of disco, 80s, to current. We danced all night! It wasnt super packed when we arrived (early, around 10:30), but for us, that made it even better! More room to dance! When we left, around 1am, it was getting pretty crowded. Servers are very nice and accommodating. Crowd is a mixed-bag, but that just adds to the appeal!

Thanks to DJ Jeff spinning 70s80s90s classic hits my crew of 10 all had a great time on the dance floor. Great atmosphere for a small night club with a big bar in midtown Manhattan. Looking forward to going back!

Spend The 2020 New Year’s Eve party at RetroClub with 10 friends. My era Disco/Hustle & Free Style Music. Had the greatest time that I haven’t had for a long time. Jeff the DJ knows his music and from the time we arrived till ending everyone was on that dance floor. The music moved us all & we never left the dance floor. Jeff plays the best. Manager & staff - great hospitality. “We shall be back”. Recommend this place to all. Thank you guys for giving us the greatest best time. “ love you”. Tina, Tiffany n friends.

Love this place!! Great music and atmosphere. Have been coming to Retro since it opened its doors at its previous location and never lets me down. If your looking for a great spot to listen to the best music from back in the days and dance the night away with a great crowd then this is the spot for you. Special Thanks to DJ Jeff you never let me down always playing the best tunes from back in the days.

Hey guys just want to say what a cute place with friendly service (bouncer at the front needs to smile a little but OK we broke him in), awesome DJ ready to have you dancing the night away. It brings me back to happier times.My only critique is that they close too early!!😊 Thank you for making my birthday weekend a blast!

Fun atmosphere with great music. The drinks were very well prepared, we tried the gin fizz and long island iced tea. Heads up there are not many food options, but what they do have is delicious. Id recommend, the Retro Platter.

Jeff, The DJ... 5 Stars (*****); The Staff, The Drinks, Food, and of course The Music, ``Always`` Outstanding !!! Plus the Attendees (The Crowd), Some dresses in 70s, 80s, or 90s garb, 😯😳😲, So, So Amazing; The Women, FFFabulous; Some from all corners of The USA; Others, from all corners ``The World;`` Always a Respectful, Personable, Fun, and Adult Crowd. Did l fail to `Mention` how ``Awesome 👍 Ness`` is the ``Energy and Way of the Music`` ??!? ««« Go !!! You will LLLove it !!! »»»

This club is great for picking up some fine women. All you need to do is walk in and you got women on your meat like moths to a flame. Definitely would recommend for them lonely boys with no hope.

What a fun clubCame here a few times with a bunch of friends and we had a great experience. No other place in the city to listen to 70’s 80’s 90’s music. I recommend everyone to come and have a fun night!!!

Visited the RetroClubNYC to meet sis-in-law and friends. My sis-in-law has been bragging about how great of a DJ Jeff is to The Bring Me Back Classic Music of the 70s, 80s, & 90s. Guess what she wasnt lying. Its so amazing to go back in time to the best music ever. The best of this DJ unlike other DJs - he played the songs from start to finish not cutting the music in half like other DJs do. The DJ glued us to the dance floor with the best non-stop music. Our thanks goes out to DJ Jeff. Jeff keep up the good work - no competition out thereYou are the best!

Review 26 (2019-09-29 - Rating: 4)
UpDate...I love the music and the energy of the crowd enjoying the 70s, 80s & 90s. The drinks are a bit overpriced. Get there by 10 or you will miss out!

Review 27 (2019-08-01 - Rating: 5)
Don’t care what ppl has to say about this place! Too small not a big deal blah blah. You go for the music and the vibe. Had a blast in the fall and I’m going again this summer! About time there’s a RETRO place to enjoy the blast! Thank you who ever came up with this place. Love it!

Probably the best retro club in NYC. Nicest manager-DJ, Jeff. Crowd actually dances the entire time and dances well. Michael Jackson impersonator sometimes. Broad range of music and DISCO.

An old friend was visiting me in the city and I wanted a nice place to dance and happily found Retro club. Everything about it was nice from the reservations to the dancing experience. Good communication through email once you reserve, clean place, open on time, friendly atmosphere. I will go back.

Retro club rocks! Every time I go, each experience tops the last. Jeff Wittels, The best DJ in Manhattan is there and he is the ONLY DJ that will play hits from the 70s, 80s, 90s, and now in the best way possible. Throws backs on throwbacks! If you want a cool vintage night you GOTTA go to retro!

Review 56 (2022-11-13 - Rating: 5)
Had a great time here. A little crowded and the drinks were pricy but cover was only $10. For example, three of the tiniest shots of Jaeger bomb and one white claw was $60. Still, great time. We danced a lot.

Hung out at Retroclubnyc for NYE with friends and had a blast. DJ played all and didnt even need to make a request - all songs from all eras were there. We danced like we never danced before. We didnt want to leave and had such an amazing time. WOW DJ Jeff you really know how to spin it! Id like to commerate you for the great music experience. Bartenders were excellent. Management came around to make sure everyone was having a great time. What a nice touch. I cannot wait to return.

As long as you keep playing THE QUEEN OF DISCO, Ill keep coming!!!! Wish there was a club dedicated just to the Queen of all Queens! Before there was a Mariah or a Whitney or a Beyoncé there was DONNA!!! All hail to the Queen! Keep on playing!! Your music brings us back to simpler times where you just want Ted to dance the night away. Thank you!!!!

Review 61 (2018-03-03 - Rating: 5)
Such a great vibe, its really class place, and judging by the crowds the 3 time I went, its a melting pot that everyone likes. Good music brings people together, and good drink dont hurt the cause! Door guy was cool, bartenders were solid, but the music 80s music it was makes everyone feel good.

Review 62 (2022-04-27 - Rating: 4)

Wow! This place is really cool :-). My friends and I came and had a blast. DJ was playing all the right songs! Drinks were great! Definitely will be coming back soon.

Had a BLAST Friday night dancing under the disco balls to an endless string of great oldies. Drink prices were consistent with other NYC bars and ours were poured generously. Make sure to check your bill before paying, gratuity was already added to the total.

Review 65 (2019-04-16 - Rating: 4)
So I came here with my dad because he loves disco music and loves to hustle. The entry fee was 10$ which was pretty cheap for the area that we were in. The music was awesome great DJ and he took requests. It was a great crowd and nice vibe it was the right amount of packed. The only reason that I do not give this place 5 stars is because the bartenders sucked so bad, they were so rude for no apparent reason. I asked for a water with lemon and she took 10 minutes to give it to me then rolled her eyes when i asked her to put ice. They had that same attitude with everyone. Once they get new bartenders this place will be the full package.

Review 66 (2017-09-17 - Rating: 4)
DJ played way too much disco, and ignored my requests as well, but .... I had a blast. Not many places where a 40 something gal can shake her booty and not feel like the old lady on the dance floor! I will definitely return, even to dance to disco!

Review 67 (2021-08-02 - Rating: 5)
Had the best time of my life! The Dj was amazing. I’ll definitely be back

Review 68 (2020-01-02 - Rating: 5)
I have been to Retroclub many times over the last year, and its a nostalgic throwback to the great dance music of the 70s, 80s and 90s. DJ Jeff doesnt disappoint, always playing all of the classic oldies, while generously taking requests. Cant wait to go back.

Review 69 (2019-02-18 - Rating: 5)
FUN. Retroclubnyc had an AMAZING DJ who effortlessly mixed old singalongs with today’s hits. The disco balls, lights and dance floor were perfect, and the bar was close enough to dart back onto the dance floor when Bruno Mars came on. The crowd was a bit older, but my party (~25 24 year olds) blended in.

Review 70 (2020-01-25 - Rating: 5)
Great time, lots of fun!! Best retro music ever, so much needed in the nyc nightclub scene! Bartenders are fun, strong drinks, good crowd - will totally be back!!!

Review 71 (2020-01-31 - Rating: 5)
If you’re looking for a feel good, cheesy, let loose kind of time. This is the place to be. Fun club to go to with reasonable prices and the best throwback music in the city!

Review 73 (2018-05-02 - Rating: 4)
Went here for a work party and really had a nice time. Drinks are good, especially with the two-for-one special. BEWARE: Only thing i have a problem with is that they charged me a 20% service fee for party of one person, i would not have tipped on top of that if i had already known.
