Seating Sections and Capacity at The Bitter End

The Bitter End features a cozy, cabaret-style setup with a total capacity of around 230 guests. The venue’s layout is designed to keep you close to the stage, no matter where you sit. The main seating area consists of tables and chairs arranged directly in front of the stage, offering an immersive, up-front experience. These are often considered the best seats at The Bitter End, as they provide an unobstructed view and excellent acoustics.

Along the sides, you’ll find additional tables and banquette seating, which also offer great sightlines to the stage. There is limited bar seating at the back, perfect for those who prefer a more laid-back vibe while still enjoying the performance. While The Bitter End does not have traditional VIP boxes, the front-row tables and reserved seating options are often in high demand for headline shows.

Ambiance, Accessibility, and Amenities

Stepping into The Bitter End, you’ll instantly feel its classic Greenwich Village charm. Exposed brick walls, vintage décor, and intimate lighting create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The venue is accessible, with step-free entry and seating options available for guests with mobility needs. Restrooms are located at the rear of the venue for your convenience.

Parking in Greenwich Village can be limited, so we recommend using public transportation or nearby parking garages. The Bitter End is easily accessible by subway, with the West 4th Street station just a short walk away.

How to Choose the Best Seats at The Bitter End

For the ultimate Bitter End experience, aim for seats at the front tables—these offer the closest proximity to the artists and the best stage views. Side tables and banquette seats provide a relaxed atmosphere with great sightlines, while bar seating at the back is perfect if you’d like to enjoy a drink and mingle.
