Splash (Closed Permanently) Formerly: SBNY

(229 Ratings)
CLOSING AUGUST 10TH
Most out-of-towners consider this a must-stop when in NYC. Large video screens blare dance remixes, hot bartenders/waiters serve you strong drinks, and offer weekly themed party nights (like Thursday's Campus party for the college boys, bring your college ID for free admission) with dancing, go-gos and more. Too much for you? Then stop in their lounge downstairs. Oh, and make sure you go to the bathroom (or is that the lounge?). Either way it's worth the trip.


Address
50 W 17Th St
New York, NY 10011

Near: Between 5th & 6th Ave.

Not even close to fun

Splash was one of the clubs that I had heard of before visiting New York...and it was a huge disappointment. It is a great space, and good lighting, but everything else sucked. Not one person looked like they were having fun. There was one go-go boy that was putting every ounce of energy he had into the place, but all the other dancers looked bored, and for the most part weren't dancing. The bathrooms were a bit odd: a long trough to piss in, and then stalls separating each person. Kinda gross and oddly laid out. Sure, the place was clean, but a good club needs a bit of grit to be any fun, and his place lacked that. We paid $20 each to get in and left after 45min of pure boredom and went to a different club. Splash is a waste of time.

Tacky and too young

The boys look like they are 17 years old, the music is top 40 only and the place itself is tacky. If the music was good maybe it would be a good time. Probably the worst gay club in nyc haha.
