Nightly Jazz Trios Fill a Candlelit Greenwich Village Room
A rotating cast of pianists, bassists, and singers plays intimate sets in a dim Greenwich Village haunt.
🎷 Close to the Bandstand
Zinc Bar packs a grand piano, an upright bass, and a drum kit onto a shallow stage, with a cursive neon sign glowing over the players. The room stays dark and close, and the front tables sit near enough to watch a bassist's fingers move. Sets move between piano trios and vocalists, and the rhythm section anchors each tune. Red velvet, low lamps, and Art Deco fixtures give the space an after hours feel that holds through the last set. Order an espresso martini and settle in. Reviewers land it at 4.4 across more than 890 visits, a steady mark for a small West 3rd Street room in Greenwich Village that trades on sound over spectacle.
