York Trips & Travel, Dark Eating
Don't forget to always check Citysearch or listen to 880 am (traffic on the 8s) or 1010 am (traffic on the 1s), there are
parades way too often in the city and they really make traffic unbearable
sometimes.

- guide to New York City's fetish scene - Fetish parties, S&M events
Pro-Dom's night clubs, dance Alternative, kink, adult private parties,
vamp Goth Electro Industrial party, NYC, Forums chat boards, photo's,
etc. I always liked the fetish crowds most, very interesting mix of mostly
mature people, low drama, high creativity.
pmGotham
- if I could motivate myself to get my butt out to a club these days,
these are the places I'd go. In addition to listing the regular goth/industrial
clubs of NYC, they list all the fetish, 80s, tranny, and gay and lesbian
night clubs around the city. They even tell you what places to avoid.
(This looks similar ot Fetish Planet, I'm not sure if they are related
or what)

Citysearch: New York
- They have a great listing for NYC clubs, bars, restaurants, etc. The
events are not always up to date for the club and event venues, but they
do have accurate addresses for nearly every bar and club in NYC and they
do list most of the current or recently diseased goth clubs. You can customize
your own page to list all the clubs & bars you often frequent, and
it gives details on each club/bar, the type, size, atmosphere, easiest
ways to get there, maps, and even a list of nearby restaurants.
TES.org - a not-for-profit
organization which promotes sexual liberation for all adults. Especially
for people who enjoy consensual SM. I think it's based in NYC, they have
events and meetings in NYC, NJ and surrounding areas.

Dark Themed Bars
Yaffa Cafe
- 97 St. Marks Place Between Avenue A and First Avenue, NYC, 212-674-9302.
Open 24-7 this is a favorite after goth club eatery, tacky decor, herbal
teas, great Mediterranean food, great vegetarian selection. I think they
do have some beer & wine but it's mostly a food place.
Raven
Cafe - 194 Avenue A at East 12th St, NYC, I have a few listed but
it's so hard to keep up with the different dj nights there, but almost
any night you can go to this small bar/coffee place and chill at tables

and every related genre. DJ's usually do their thing from 10-4, the bar

and Hyde - 91 Seventh Avenue South Between Barrow and West Sts, NYC.
Hours: Sun-Thu 12pm-2am; Fri-Sat 12pm-4am. bar & restaraunt, there
was scareokie going on upstairs when I ate there, food & drinks overpriced.

place has a really kewl atmosphere, good place to go with a group of friends.
You can get in at any age, 21 to drink if they decide you look young enough
to ID. Yummmmmy chocolate martini and others served in cool fishbowl glasses,
some nights have goth & synth pop type djs, others it's just you and
the jukebox.
Le
Bar Bat - Despite it's cool name and big, cool bat outside, I think
this place is best avoided if you are looking for something gothish,
however it's next door to one of the spaces where Poe wrote The Raven.
Celebrities pop in here supposedly, including Woody Harrelson, Brian
Setzer, and Brooke Shields. Decor is supposedly spooky but it's full of a
"bridge-and-tunnel" crowd.
