Great place to have a drink with friends – Not only does this bar have a stellar location, the atmoshphere is so cool. Its a perfect mix of LES meets EV meets Nolita. Cool BAR!!!

Superb Service – My girlfriend had a bday party at STAY this past friday,and the staff were all so accomadating. It's difficult to find a space that suits your needs. Even though the crowd was overwhelming,the bottle girl was able to squeeze her way through to assist us. The music was insane that night ranging from Duran Duran to Nirvana to 50 cent. I'll see you all next month for my bday bonanza.

"Should I stay or should I go?" GO!! – Way too crowded, and for no apparent reason. The music was subpar, and the layout of this bar only makes sense for frotteurs or those in desperate need of a good groping. Overall, only reccomended as a serious last resort.

Was ok – The guy at the door was really nice. Met a bunch of our friends here because I read good reviews. The place was way too crowded and the sound system was crappy. I asked the DJ to play a Prince song for my friend, since it was her birthday. He played one, I was told, but I didn't hear it!! The music was so muffled in the seated area...

A seductive style and easygoing East Village sensibility at this modernist lounge. – The Scene A very subtle sign on its front window makes this nightspot feel discreet--despite its well-traveled Houston Street location. A mod, curvaceous couch lines one wall, '60s-style lounge chairs provide additional seating, and retro-futuristic pendant lamps cast a sexy red glow. The only thing that's missing in this chic space is a snooty attitude; instead, there's a welcoming, inclusive, laid-back vibe. The Draw Thanks to a generous n... read more

GREAT DRINKS – STAY has never failed me. Potent drinks, friendly service, and the best music make this LES venue such a palatable solution to all the dive bars in the area. If you want a great cheap drink, but don't want to sacrifice your environement, STAY is the place to be.

Hip, Open Space Makes You Want To STAY – It's easy to miss the place, even with an address on the main drag of east houston. but it seems like that's part of its appeal, unpretentious and undiscovered. I went earlier one evening with friends and had a chance to check out the atmosphere before the crowds descended but had such a good time that we decided to stay until early morning. the bartenders, barbacks and owners/managers were amazing friendly, even the bouncer joked with me on the way in. the cozy, tall-backed, communal... read more

Really Cute – I love coming to this lounge for drinks. The space is amazing; it's super sexy and intimate. The music has always been really good, and the staff is surprisingly friendly - always a plus. Great location and vibe.

No cover and great music – We dropped by this past weekend to see what the hype was all about. My friends and I use to go to the old Abaya as well. What a total make over. The design is a lot cleaner and they eliminated cover charge which is no wonder why it was a packed house. The music was mostly hip hop, r&b, the commercial stuff you hear everywhere else. I would like for them to play more tribal, deep bass and heavy hitting house music... that would be nice for a change. Service was much better and faster since they load... read more
