NYC’s iconic West Village lesbian bar and queer human space. An inclusive LGBTQ+ landmark for cocktails, community, and legendary vibes.
As a legendary fixture on the global gay map, Henrietta Hudson has been a cornerstone of New York City’s LGBTQ+ nightlife since 1991. Located at 438 Hudson St in the heart of the iconic West Village, this historic venue has recently transformed from a traditional lesbian bar into a vibrant 'queer human space' designed for every member of our community. Whether you are traveling through NYC or are a local regular, 'Hen's' offers a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere that transcends labels. While it remains a sanctuary for queer women and non-binary individuals, gay men and allies are always welcome to enjoy the elevated cocktail program, curated wine list, and cozy-cool lounge vibes. From its chic, mid-century modern interior to its lively outdoor parklet, Henrietta Hudson perfectly balances its rich history with a forward-thinking energy. It’s a must-visit destination for anyone looking to experience the soul of queer New York. Stop by for rotating DJs, community-focused events like 'Queeraoke,' and a chance to connect with the city's most diverse crowd in a space that feels like home.
