Jazz Club in Manhattan
 

Hello,

I will be in NYC Aug 24th and I am looking for a place to listen to some jazz. We are
looking for a smaller place where we don't have to buy a ticket. Cover charge and drink miniumum's are fine with us. Any suggestions?

I'm a fan of Terra Blues in the Village..may have a cover charge but it's not nearly the "production" that Blue Note can be.

Smoke jazz club and lounge, 2751 Broadway (Bd'way and 105th street) is out of the usual adress(Blue Note, iridium, village vanguard).
Music is often from quality.

I like Birdland in midtown, I think it is around 45 and 8th. They have early sets, they have a good combo of local and national acts.

Cleopatra's Needle. They have a website. 90th & Broadway.

check out gothamjazz.com for listings of who's playing where.

The Garage in the Village, and the place at Blue Smoke (is that called Jazz Standard?) near Union Square are a couple of nice options too.

Check the Village Voice and Time Out NY to see who is in town.
