What People Are Saying About Studio B

Dark warehouses dominate Greenpoint's grimy waterfront, making this 9,500-square-foot music space a sort of oasis. Whether the hot pink marquee and fluorescent lights are leftovers from its Polish nightclub days or meant to be ironically hip is up for debate. The club's A-list curators include Justine D (of Motherf*cker fame) on DJs and Joady Thornton (a U.K. promoter) on bands. A clear sound system is equipped to handle both. The crowd fluxes with the music, but expect plenty of Williamsburg representation.

I liked the club but their website said "free before 11pm" and I showed up at 10:30pm they said it was only for ladies though their website did not mention that at all. I double checked this and was correct so asked to speak with a manager and the door staff said that there was no one available so I had to pay $20. FRAUD! It was a fun night otherwise, too bad they had to ruin it by fraudulently luring people in.

This is a very good place to have fun. They always have some special event. Beer is not so expensive, and staff is cool. This is one avant-garde place in NYC.

i started going here about a year and a half ago, and ive never had a bad experience. the place has become better and better since then, especially now since justine d's the events coordinator. even though its out of the way, its a place thats definately worth it. the bouncers aren't too bad, neither are the bartenders. it's a good crowd, i always meet friendly people, its one of my favorite places to go to.

When to Go:
Hours are sporadic, so check the club's schedule before trekking through industrial Greenpoint.
Know Before You Go:
Plastic cups are an indication that you should forego the cocktail. Stick with beer ($6).
Lounge:
Don't bother with the VIP area; the real luxury is in the back room, where leather couches, red curtains and chandeliers add a Gothic touch to an otherwise stripped-down club.
When to Go:
Hours are sporadic, so check the club's schedule before trekking through industrial Greenpoint. Patrons aged 19 and 20 are now permitted inside on Friday and Saturday nights (but it's still 21+ to drink, of course).
Know Before You Go:
Plastic cups are an indication that you should forego the cocktails and stick with beer.
The Extras:
