Cubbyhole
281 West 12th Street

One of only two lesbian bars left standing in New York City, Cubbyhole in the West Village is more than a bar: it’s an institution. It’s a place where the LGBTQ community feels safe, honored, loved and celebrated. When the bar shuttered for long stretches in 2020 due to the CIVID-19 pandemic, patrons held on to the hope and the knowledge that one Spring day it would reopen and welcome bar-goers into its open arms once again. Cubbyhole is now in full swing, taking into account all CDC guidelines and COVID restrictions and serving up frozen cocktails like margaritas and frose to those who enjoy. With an outdoor space for tables and room inside, Cubbyhole is ready for its fans to come back home!
