I recently rented out Velvet Brooklyn for a private event, and I can’t recommend this place enough! The venue was absolutely amazing. We had a fantastic time with light appetizers, delicious drinks, and a wide array of alcohol options to please everyone. The location, right next to the iconic Peter Luger Steakhouse, couldn’t have been better.
The venue itself has a cool speakeasy vibe, which was perfect for the atmosphere I wanted to create. We had a 100-inch projector screen with a slideshow, and a full DJ setup, which took the event to the next level. The staff were incredibly attentive and helpful throughout the entire evening.
A special shoutout to the owner, Phil, who was instrumental in making everything come together. He helped me plan every detail and was there on the day of the event to ensure everything ran smoothly. I had around 100 guests from out of state, and Phil made the entire process seamless.
Whether you’re planning a private event or just looking for a great spot for cocktails, I highly recommend Velvet Brooklyn. A huge thank you to Phil and his amazing team for making my event such a huge success!

Absolutely phenomenal venue. Ambiance was excellent, staff was excellent, drinks were excellent, and the owner made booking the venue accessible and pleasant every step of the way. Easy to access all our tech needs for the night, as well. Would absolutely book here again and again.

- Genesis S. rated it 5/5 stars
'I can’t say enough amazing things about Phil and Velvet Brooklyn! From start to finish, Phil was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and hands-on. I planned a surprise birthday for my boyfriend, and he made sure everything went smoothly. The venue was perfect, the bartenders were fantastic, and the music were great. It’s rare to find a spot in NYC that truly delivers, but Phil’s hospitality and organization made all the difference. I’m so grateful to him and the entire team at Velvet Brooklyn for such a special night. Would absolutely host another event here—10/10!' - Crystal L. rated it 4.8/5 stars
