You can ask for a hookah ! Guys: if you go at peak time, you'll have to wait in line for the bathroom in front of their main speaker. Ouch! Such a fun place tho!!

You know that George Clooney movie "Dusk till dawn" where they enter the club Titty Twister? Well , I think I've found the LES equivalent. Some of the people here have to be vampires.

Alex Cruz-Lebrón

We came in and suddenly I realized I had been there before. Beers were really cheap and the ambiance was nice! I could see the place gets crowded , though; people started pouring in on our way out.

La Caverna is also a good place to get ready for a night of partying, as its $4 drink happy hour lasts until 10pm Tuesday through Sunday. Read more

Cool underground bar that looks like an actual cave . Plus, happy hour til 10 pm. What more could you want?

Lisa Sosa

Bottomless brunch on Saturday- great service and food was yummy.

Jonathan Knox

Nice vibe, great staff , Benny is the best, food drinks/food and awesome prices!

Kevin

No cover. Another great dancefloor spot. They've got hookahs you can smoke at your table. The music gets real good and dancy. Amazing crowd.

Derek Gamboa

Drinks are affordable . No cover. But gets way too packed and takes pretty long to get your drinks. Had more fun toward the latter part of the night once the bar was starting to clear out.

Stephanie DeDecker

Awesome cave like bar - creates something interesting. Gets very crowded , and drinks aren't anything special

Rewan Parti

The hookah is awesome and the music gets your feet tapping! It gets extremely crowded around midnight.

Christy Smith

The underground cave atmosphere is really fun: beers are cheap , basics are weak

Christina B

Get there early & order a hookah . Skip the specialty drink menu - they're all pretty sweet.

Dennis Moy

Great music ... Always dick to ass, shoulder to shoulder packed on a saturday day night. No cover is good but also brings in the creeps.

Asli S

Great happy hour deals that go until 10pm!

Jan Sichermann

You're ears will be ringing: there's usually a line for the bathroom , and it's in the back in front of a speaker!

Meghna Rao

Why did they pick cave decor? To make up for having to place the bar in a basement ? Or was the previous place also cave decor and they were too lazy to change it?

Maya Jimenez ????

You can't say not to smoking hookah and dancing right next to your table with all of your friends.

Saif Dia

NYC's best college bar without a college crowd

Gregory Sycle

A good basement bar with an interesting vibe

Megan Visconti

a bartender tried to push me aggressively to the side & I said she could say excuse me & instead she goes 'I work here I can do what I want' ...oh so working at a bar entitles you to shove people...

Ashley Lempka

very mean bartenders !!! A little overboard with the IDs with a table everyone was 30 and over.

Neol Capone

They HAVE HOOKA !!!! And dance great combo

Alberto Simon

Chill vibe and good music

Maurice P

They need to stop being so goddamn cheap with the amount of alcohol they put in their drinks.

Caroline Deng

Came here on a Thursday night and it was so empty it was awkward.

Nick Johnson

The bartender Jasmine is awesome!!

Chelsea Balkan

Not only is it illegal to have a credit car minimum but la caverna will make you spend a minimum of $30 if you use a credit card. And there isn't ONE sign at the bar announcing this rule.

Lady Zombie Sangrea

BEAUTIFUL decor. $4 drinks during happy hour !

Daniel So

Apple or mango hooka is what's up.

Hannah B

This is the weirdest bar in new york

Lance Fiasco

Typical douchebag bar/club with a few stalactites thrown in for decoration.

Prasid Pathak

They have hookah

Noemi Jimenez

I met the man of my dreams here

Andres Weber

Dear god. Come here for dancing only. The hookah is the worst I've ever had in the country . Awesome atmosphere. Worst Hookaing ever. Go to cozy or somewhere cheaper and better.

Bonobos

Speaking of caves , this place is decorated like a cavern with fake stalagmites and stalactites .

Candice Rivera

Cool decor

Makis

Love this place

Ben Weyers

Plays 90s one hit wonders like its their fucking job.

John Boughner

Cool spot downstairs. Looks like a cave .

Alyssa

This place looks like a cave ! Good young crowd.

Younes Cha

It's a douchey bar/dancefloor with a pretty terrible crowd of awkward patrons.

James J

There are better less douchey places to dance .

Ryan Warrender

Pause. Are we in a cave ?

Vicki N

Go dancing . Maybe it was a bad day/one-off but DJ was meh!

Chris Erickson

Asian bartender : "you forgot to tip me." Tell her to stfu and go to hell. It's not an obligation to tip a broad for crackin a beer

Yakov Isakov

You should come here only if you want to get ripped off by the waitress and then insulted by the manager!

Liana Casciani

Seriously the service was atrocious I would only ever go back, actually no I would never go back the food was horrible and we had to bed for more drinks.

Manda Shettleton

Hookah + cave = hookah cave

Vincent Azzinaro

Mandatory coat check ? PASS.
