The Back Room
Suggested 40 guests
Cozy and candlelit, our most-booked room. Own bar, own bartender, a door you can close.
Host a Singles Night in the East Village
Your guest list, your format, a room booked for nobody but you.
For hosts
A room built for meeting people
Mixers work when people can hear each other and move around. As a singles event venue in NYC, the B Lounge gives you a long bar, banquettes along the wall and room for up to 60 to circulate. For a smaller, closer night the Back Room holds about 40.
Guests open their own tabs, so nobody has to collect money at the door for drinks, and everything they order counts toward the room's minimum. Put your icebreaker questions or your schedule on the projector and run the playlist from a phone.
If you host every month, ask about a regular night — recurring events are negotiable. Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday have the lowest minimum of the week.

Pricing
You don't rent the room — you meet a bar minimum
There's no charge for the space. You book a session and meet a minimum bar spend for it. If your group drinks past the minimum, you just pay for what you drank. Nothing gets added on top for the room.

Questions
Singles events, straight answers
Do you have a private room for a singles night?
Three rooms, holding about 40, 50 and 60. Each has its own bar and its own bartender, so your mixer isn't competing with the rest of the bar for attention — or for drinks.
Can every guest pay for their own drinks?
Yes. Guests open their own tabs by card and everything they buy counts toward the room's minimum. You can also run a host tab or hand out drink tickets.
We run singles events every month. Can we book a regular night?
Recurring events are negotiable. Tell us the night of the week and the expected headcount in the form.
Is there a screen and sound?
Every room has a TV and a projector, with Bluetooth sound from a phone. DJs connect by RCA and bring their own console.
What does a singles event cost?
No rental fee and no booking fee. You meet a bar minimum for the session: $700 Wednesday, Thursday or Sunday, and from $500 Friday and Saturday depending on the room and the session.
