Had a knee slapping experience here watching Karla Mellett smash the comedy scene with superb superlatives and epic puns. Loved Elle (I think her name was) Gabe Pacheco, Ashley and the Norwegian guy as well (forgot his name 🤦🏼‍♂️)Very grateful for this spot. Def gotta come check it out. Can’t wait to get back. Don’t be a sourpuss come to Sourmouse Sunday Nights 8pm it’s worth ittt! See u there!!! Also mad fun playing ping pong earlier to get the funny bone juices flowing. Love the vibes here.

Organized check in process, clean facilities, had good clean fun.

Sour Mouse is a great time! I've been coming here for years to hang out with friends and it's always fun Friends and I recently partnered with Sour Mouse to host a ping pong tournament as a fundraiser. They were easy to work with and very accommodating and as a result, we had a great event of almost 30 people I highly recommend coming here with groups of friends - whether it's a formal event or just a hang out. The space is great and with all the games available, truly something for everybody

The Sunday night bartender is very nice and sweet, she really makes time to have a good warming conversation with you and makes your drinks efficiently. 10/10 and they always have music to match the atmosphere calm chill no problems they know how to read the room busy or not

Great place to shoot pool or play table tennis. Plenty of space, big bar and atmospheric interior. There is a place for a band to play, so sometimes there is a live music

Sour Mouse is the best kept secret in NYC. I hope it stays lowkey. I love going there for billiards, foosball, board games and live shows, from comedy to jazz. It never disappoints as a third space. So cozy, plentiful seating. I will gatekeep this venue for as long as I can.

Such a fun place to go! Great for people looking for something fun to do in NYC that isn’t a typical bar or club — pool and ping pong are so much fun, and the DJs are usually fantastic. Been on a few themed nights, including a rap battle, and really enjoyed the live performances. Bar food was good, we ordered typical fried foods and they did not disappoint. Will keep coming back every time I’m in the area!

Back to NYC after her successful tour, my talented friends #Hannahrayteal and her great guitarist #SamPhelpsMusic have played two fantastic 3 set shows at the really cool club, Sour Mouse. (Please check Hannah and Sam on all music platforms) I found Sour Mouse Club, located in the Lower East Side of New York City, a vibrant and expansive social club designed to offer a unique alternative to traditional bars. Combining games, live music, art, and a social atmosphere to encourage genuine connection among its patrons, its a cool NYC kinda experience. After having the great blessing of enjoying the NYC live music scene, here's my impressions of what makes Sour Mouse Club stand out: The Atmosphere & Concept of this Club is obviously as a Social Hub. My visits showed that the core mission of Sour Mouse is to bring people together. It aims to bridge the gap of constant digital connection by providing a physical space for interaction and shared experiences. Game-Centric: It boasts a wide array of parlor games, including 8 regulation-sized pool tables, 2 ping pong tables, 2 foosball tables, board games, and giant Jenga and Connect 4; how cool. This makes it ideal for casual hangouts, date nights, or competitive fun. All while there is an entertaning band or DJ filling up the large venue with music. Art Gallery: Beyond the games, Sour Mouse also has an art gallery. The 5,000+ square-foot venue features curated local art, including a stunning mural by Indie 184, with pieces often available for purchase. Live Entertainment: There's a dedicated performance area where bands and DJs play nightly, offering a diverse range of music from jazz to blues to indie rock. They also host comedy nights, karaoke, dance parties, and other social gatherings like speed dating and book clubs. What a great concept! Spacious & Modern: The entrance to the Club is quite modest, so a highlight is the surprisingly large and sprawling space, which allows for comfortable spacing and a modern, chill vibe. Games: As mentioned, a huge variety of games are available. Tables are typically first-come, first-serve, with hourly rates ($25-$35/hour depending on the day/time). Drinks: They offer a solid drink program, including soju cocktails, curated beers, and hand-picked wines. Food: Coal oven pizzas are available for when hunger strikes. Events: Sour Mouse has a robust events calendar, featuring live music, DJ sets, jazz jams, blues bands, foosball socials, and more. They also host private events like birthday parties and corporate gatherings, with options to rent out specific areas or the entire venue. My preception of a "Target Audience": Social Seekers: People looking for an interactive and engaging night out beyond just drinking. Game Enthusiasts: Anyone who enjoys pool, ping pong, foosball, or board games. Music & Art Lovers: Those who appreciate live performances and local art in a relaxed setting. Groups: It's well-suited for groups of friends, colleagues, or even solo individuals looking to meet new people. My Overall Impression: My 2 visits to Sour Mouse Club were extremely positive, really appreciating this Club's unique concept, the variety of entertainment options, and the welcoming atmosphere. A fun, vibrant, and engaging spot to spend an evening, offering a refreshing departure from the typical bar scene. The emphasis on fostering genuine connections through games, music, and art seems to resonates well, go, have fun and a NYC kinda night!

I celebrated my birthday at Sour Mouse. I bought one of the birthday packages and I have to say JR and Deborah at the bar were fantastic the entire afternoon. Drinks and food were brought out on time and in accordance with what I purchased. I would say both of them went above and beyond what was necessary for the experience and I highly recommend them. The venue is really cool—great pool and ping pong tables, and some smooth jazz on Sundays. I had a blast and so did my friends.
