The Community Vibe That Brings It All Together

There’s more to Close Up NYC than the music and the menu. It’s the people—regulars who greet each other like old friends, the performers stopping to chat after their sets, and the newcomers who, like you, are enveloped by the club’s warming embrace. 

This sense of community is what drives the people behind Close Up NYC, and it’s what makes it a true Lower East Side gem. Here, conversation comes easily over a shared drink and a mutual love for authentic jazz.
