Overview & Atmosphere

Legend status. The Eagle is one of the OG BDSM clubs in New York, and still dominates the leather scene. Industrial, raw, and unapologetically masc — expect chain-link fences, dim lighting, and the smell of cigars and sweat. The upstairs rooftop brings chill vibes with leather-clad cigar socials; downstairs gets cruisey, cruisier, and cruised.


What to Expect & Events

Jockstrap Wednesdays. Mr. Eagle. DJs. Pool tables. People watching. Voyeur corners. Hands, eyes, and energy everywhere. Whether you're soft-leather curious or a full-on boots and bracer, you’ll feel seen — and maybe stroked.


Entry & Logistics

Open 10 PM ‘til late. 21+. Cash-only cover on weekends (bring those bills). No dress code, but leather, harnesses, and gear are celebrated. Staff keep it hot, safe, and relaxed.

She’s dirty. She’s loud. She’s iconic. One of the rawest kinky bars in New York, The Cock is queer, chaotic, and drenched in sex appeal. Think leather, punk, jockstraps, drag, and zero pretense. Basement darkrooms light up red. Upstairs is for dancing, grinding, and maybe making out with that hot stranger in a harness.


What to Expect & Events

Weekend DJs, sweaty bodies, and that feeling that something scandalous is always happening just out of sight. No official BDSM events — but if you like cruising, dominance, and consent-powered chaos, you’ll feel right at home. 


Entry & Logistics

Cash-only. 21+. No dress code, but kinkwear fits right in. No phones. Seriously — cameras are a no-go and security will check.
