Barbes

Barbes, nestled unassumingly between a coffee shop and a brownstone just off the corner of 6th Ave and 9th Street in Brooklyn’s Park Slope, is a regular spot for locals, and almost altogether unknown for visitors to NYC. Want world-class jazz? Sure, the Vanguard will never fail you, as well it shouldn’t for its $90 pricetag for a show and drinks for two. Want to catch a great, surprising, genre-bending jazz show for a simple cover and uninflated drink prices? Barbes is your spot. Get there early, too, as it’s a small room!
