Henrietta Hudson

Casual barLocals' pick

One of the longest continuously running lesbian bars in the country, on Hudson Street since 1991: a brick-walled, stained-glass room with a pool table that turns clubby later in the week, when DJs play across genres and the pool table makes way for a dance floor.
