Rude bouncer. Last night we decided to stop by there and when we tried to get in, the bouncer refused to let us in and said that “our eyes look lit already”. Keep in mind we had only had one drink and on top of that we had just ate, we were completely sober. Then someone else outside proceeded to point out that the bouncer has been doing that night. Your bouncer clearly does not care about making business for you and just wants to go home early. Very unfortunate

My favorite place to bring visitors. Energy, music, alcohol. It’s just everything I love about a Friday night in nyc.

A much friendlier vibe than Marie's Crisis cafe. I wish I came here first. Nice staff, nice vibe and they take card payment.

my friend and i went to use the bathroom and the worker accused us of being in the bathroom at the same time. didn’t apologize for that and was pretty rude about it.

My first time here was a bit of a blur... late night, last stop but do remember having a good time and saying we wanted to go back. Fast Forward to one or two years later, we came back with friends. This time not so late, and we were able to find a couple of spots at the bar. Atmosphere was the same great fun we remembered, and this time they had live music too, with some of the bartenders also taking turns at the mic to sing. And if you are part of the crowd and want to join in, you are welcomed to. Drinks are strong, but service can be a bit slow due to this place being so busy and bartenders multitasking but this is no reason to skip The Duplex. Just be a bit patience and enjoy the fun!

It doesn't feel upscale, but it feels like a famous local piano bar. But the servers are really friendly and even the pink-haired girl who makes drinks while singing is really cool hahaha.
I came around 7pm on Thursday a few weeks ago with some friends so we could chat. Upstairs was pretty chill and empty except for a bachelorette party, that ended around 8pm. A drag performer came on at 10pm and, although she was fabulous, it was just too loud for us to talk and we decided to call it a night. I've been coming to Duplex for well over a decade so I knew what to expect. I do like that they have non-alcoholic "liquors" available and was served some tasty N/A cocktails, at very reasonable prices. It wasnt as busy as I remember it being in pre-covid days, which kinda threw me for a loop, but hey, now that I'm older I appreciate having some breathing room :)

Duplex can be a great spot on some nights, but it entirely depends on who's working and who's playing piano...

Had an amazing time as always. Always a riot to go see live piano performances and the best crowds in manhattan. Leave your inhibitions and go to have a great time without any regrets!

I've previously enjoyed my time at this bar, but my recent visit was marred by a distressing incident. Unfortunately, two friends of mine was groped by an individual near the restroom. The overall experience was disappointing, and the staff's response fell extremely short.The situation wasn't resolved and our entire party just left disappointed.This is simply not okay.
