    "Julius is my favorite gay bar of all time. It’s low­key, it’s high energy, it’s supes cheap, & they make a phenomenal cheeseburger." - Anne Ishii, writer, editor, translator, founder - Massive Goods Read more

    The oldest gay bar in NYC. Around so long it's a hip dive again. Julius' has the widest age range of clientele, from twinks to men probably here when it first allowed gays in the 1960s. Great burgers!

    The oldest, and arguably, nicest gay bar in New York City. The food is great, the drinks are decent, but please leave your straight friends elsewhere, unless you're having a birthday(!). Thank you.

    Established as bar 1864 in building from 1826. Allegedly oldest Greenwich Village bar and oldest gay bar (since 1950s). Site of gay activist 'sip ins' in the 1960s.

    Low-key & divey gay bar in the heart of west village. Strong drinks and laidback, casual vibe.

    "Sure, it's a gay bar, but this dingy, loose-hinged old survivor is still more masculine than 90 percent of the straight bars in America. If Eugene O'Neill and Tennessee Williams were drinking..." Read more

    Great local crowd, cheap strong drinks, and a great dose of civil rights history. One of my new favorites.

    Not only do they have the best burgers, they have sports in tv, great jukebox, and you can actually have a decent conversation with some interesting people:)

    For the older crowd (average age last night was around 55), but fun, casual, non-cruisy, with seating and a 80's jukebox.

    Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. Sure, it's a gay bar, but this dingy old survivor is more masculine than 90 percent of the straight bars in America.

    Julius is a great place. Not sure who made the mistake of hiring WILL the "so called cook". It's not hard to wear a smile.
