Bembe - Lounge in Brooklyn - 81 S 6th St, USA

I visited this lounge/bar on Friday night, it wasn’t too busy at first but it eventually filled up. They do offer some specialty cocktails and also a full standard bar. Drinks were pretty strong, no food menu, Dj was pretty good but space is too small, there’s a $10 entry fee and the crowd is on the younger side. It was good but my opinion is that there shouldn’t charge. It’s not a club, it’s a small bar.

I don’t understand the $15 cover charge when it’s just a regular bar with music like anywhere else. No offense. The scenery is good. The music isn’t bad. But the crowd is very bland and lame. It is not a club it is a regular bar. Many places in the area offer the same exact thing with a way better ambiance, more floor space, better crowds. Over priced for no reason when better spaces are in the area. Bartenders were great. Front door staff very unpleasant and rude. They beg for tip to just enter this bar that is not a club / has a small dance floor. Overall, an overpriced joke. Lasted one drink with my friends as better options are in the neighborhood.

I had a great time here. I recently visited for my birthday with some friends. Parking was relatively easy to find in the area and it’s near the bridge too. I loved the live percussions which gave me a taste of clubs in Miami but minus the indoor smoking and minus the money machines. Haha. The also have red stripe which is a cool beer from Jamaica. The DJ played good music. I would visit this establishment again. The only thing that sucked was the $15 cover charge 🙃

This place is dope. Went first time ona Friday night and it was wild. Small space, big/diverse crowd, DJ blasting with a drummer playing to the Beats. Highly recommend for a night of dancing. Music is mixed from all genres.

Definitely a nice spot to enjoy some dancing with your partner. Different nights, different music. My favorite part is when they start playing the drums 🥁. Saturday night was a cover charge $20. Tuesday was free entry.

Me and my friend recently came here to wrap up our night on a Friday. The crowd was mixed, which we LOVE! We are a group of Hispanic women who love a crowd of beautiful different people, but the music was just confusing. I can't talk about the drinks as I didn't personally have one, but this review is more for the vibe than anything. Now you're probably wondering what happened with the music, and the answer is nothing, and that's the problem! We walked in, and there was a salsa song playing again. We LOVE Spanish music, but this music played for 2 hours, and my feet could not bare to salsa dance anymore. If you can salsa dance for hours, I inspire to be you, but I could know. There needs to be a more diverse music section. Oh, one more negative was the cover fee. I don't know when they start that, but it's about $10 per person. Overall, we will be back to ensure we can have a feel for the entire experience.

As much as this place is nice to visit, the crowd management could be a lot better! Once the club closes, people tend to linger & play their own music in the streets. It's very loud & obnoxious to live by. The management & staff should do more to keep the noise down & get people to leave the premises after closing, not fair to the neighbors!

Its a nice vibe, dimmed lights and cozy. I never had food there. I only go to dance and stuff. In Wednesdays they have Afro-beat night and that's pretty lit 👌 🔥
