Our Guestbook
“ My sister and I visited this venue for the first time last night, and we were blown away! Despite some concerning reviews about discrimination, we were treated with respect and kindness throughout the night. As Asian women, we were a bit apprehensive, but the staff and patrons made us feel safe and welcome. The atmosphere was electric, with great music and a talented DJ spinning the perfect clubbing tunes. We loved dancing the night away without feeling uncomfortable or harassed. The crowd was respectful, and we appreciated the considerate vibe. We were impressed by the friendly staff, particularly the woman at the front door, who was warm, funny, and made us feel right at home. As a lovely bonus, they even offered dog treats for the furry friends passing by – a thoughtful touch that shows they care about their community. Overall, we highly recommend this venue and can't wait to come back! P.S.: Yes the drinks are pricey for the size. But, we kind of expect this from New York If you are a coffee lover, do try the Espresso martini ”

“ I've lived in the West Village for many years. I've seen bars come and go. So, I'm really grateful that Henrietta's is still here promoting community, and creating a vibrant queer space. I recently met here with a bunch of friends. We had a fabulous time. The management and service were all top notch. ”
“ I’m sorry to see a couple of constructive reviews because I’ve been coming to Hens for many years and always have a fabulous time. The staff is always friendly and accommodating, the drinks are delicious and the atmosphere is so much more fun and inviting than most bars. They’ve evolved a lot over time and their investment into the space clearly shows. The dancing is great and they have cute themed events and programming which are always a blast. Bonus, there’s lots of great food nearby to fight a hangover! I’m grateful for the efforts these folks put in and to have this mainstay of queer culture in our fantastic city. ”
“ I’ve been coming to hens for years! It’s a second home at this point. The staff, the people, the energy— all unmatched! I’ve met some of the greatest now most important people in my life at hens. And I know that would not have been possible without the relentless efforts of all the Hens workers to keep the space fun, safe, and positive for all. Hens as a black masc lesbian in the world I thank you for existing and being one of my safe spaces ”
