Reviews for 168 York Street Cafe in New Haven, CT
My wife and I , lesbian couples , was treated very poorly at this establishment. From the moment I walked in this place it was a... disaster. I paid for ? vip seating? .. $150 ! And there was no seats available, went to the bar .. no service. Completelyignored. And when another customer suggest to the bartender to serve us first, the bartender got rude with my wife. Uncalledfor. We walked right out and lost 150. I?ve never been mistreated by my own community before. Very disappointing. I can?t waitfor this place to be out of business. As someone who owns their own business, customer service is always first. Great peoplebetter, or don?t have a business. Be better. Be kinder. Be respectful. You NEVER know who you?re serving!

Went there after a bad experience at another gay bar- Trevor lounge I think, and this pace was much better. Good drinks and nice... people. Read more
Let me tell you. Regardless of occasion or orientation, this is a absolutely great establishment. You won?t find a more... welcoming staff, a better patio or more perfect fries than at the 168 York Street Cafe. Read more

I don't feel that this bar is open to all members of the LGBTQ community. I recently visited with my fiance and was ignored by... the bartender and given many dirty looks from male gay customers. I've yet to find lesbian bar in New Haven and thought thatYork Street Cafe would at least be a safe place to quietly get a beer with my fiance among other queers. Instead I felt shamedand ostracized for being a woman. Maybe they assumed I was straight. It's misogyny either way you look at it. Read more
