Party Earth Review: Part dive bar, part DJ dance floor, and part live performance venue, Make-Out Room is a smorgasbord of nightlife delights clearly seen through the horn-rimmed specs of its regular clientele. After forking over the cover to the hipsteroid bouncer, patrons enter an elaborately decorated room featuring hundreds of streamers dangling from the high ceiling and more than a few rhinestone deer heads peering down from the walls. Before the night’s act takes the stage, casual couples swap sweet nothings over $3 microbrews at the bar, while groups of young professionals fill the booths and pretend their quirky days are behind them – no easy task when a demonic baby head glows ominously in a fish tank behind the bar. The variety of music – which ranges from afro-beats and soul to electronica and salsa – translates into a diverse mix on the dance floor, where music fans squeezing their way toward the small red-curtained stage can just as easily be Latin lovers one night and emo kids the next, all with the common goal of bouncing to the beat. Those in need of a break can elbow their way past dancing hips to the booths and tables around the perimeter, where worn-out patrons cool down beneath a mounted bearskin and a painting of a family of snails. Quirky and cool, Make-Out Room is a stellar spot for live music – as well as an ideal hideaway for newly-formed couples looking to support the bar’s name.

Make-Out Room Review

Tip from Jonah:

“Catch the Monthly Rumpus, a once-a-month event featuring published authors reading from their works, and occasionally a bit of comedy and some live music to boot. It’s like being thrown back to the early 60s in Greenwich Village .”
