The Parkside Lounge

Neighborhood juke joint and intimate entertainment venue promoting original artists.<br>Established in 1956.<br><br>Hailed as the "Champagne of Dive Bars," the Parkside Lounge is an old-school juke joint on the Lower East side. They just don't make them like this anymore... live music 7 days a week, cheap drinks, no high-fructose corn syrup, and 100% tourist free (well 94% but we get the cool ones). Make no mistake, this is not a dive bar. It's an intergalactic pirate ship destined for greatness.
