Harlem Ambassador

Africans, Euros, and Americans all come for world music with dance and reggae thrown in. Since the bar is ALWAYS open until 4am, there is often a late crowd. Those albums on the ceiling are legendary!

Dulcita Coco

Great music venue playing Jazz and African/Caribbean/South American music . Very mixed crowd of people from all walks of the world. Once you're here, you're in another (chilled out ) galaxy.

Jaro G4

Get the Afrotrip (w/ Brazillian Rum ) and come chill out to the Reggae and (live)Jazz tunes on a Sunday night. Great for going to work the next day.....

Jennifer Mack

Great venue w/ grungy feel. Live music but can get really loud so you may not want to meet here on a first date. Go for the fela burger . It's a win. Wings are tiny. Don't get if you're really hungry.

Randall Head

Great vibe, decor and staff . Friendly patrons who are there for the music . Go see some talented musicians !! Definitely worth the trip to Harlem.

Lauren Ford

Still a great happy hour but they've really started taking "world music " to another level here. The entertainment isn't really what it used to be.

WeHarlem

Nice addition to Harlem's music venues . Shrine has a eclectic live band music vibe with a rustic artsy decor. Visit www.WeHarlem.com. Download WeHarlem iPhone/Android App 4 FREE
