woody allen's band at the carlyle

Just trying to plan our itinerary and wouldn%26#39;t mind going to see Woody Allen on the Monday night. I checked the Carlyle website and for a seat at the bar there%26#39;s a cover charge of $85. Does anyone have any idea whether this is an admittance fee or do you get a few drinks in with that? Has anyone been? Thanks.

I%26#39;ve been to Cafe Carlyle but not to see Woody Allen. I don%26#39;t think the price includes any drinks, but I think that $85 price is a per person charge for a table. I think the ';cover'; at the bar should be less.





A cover charge is an admittance fee and it will say say if it includes any drinks. It also usually says whether there%26#39;s a drinks minimum (ie sometimes it will say $xx cover and 2 drink minimum)





The room is relatively small so whether you sit at the bar or a table the view will be good. I can%26#39;t imagine paying that for the bar. I don%26#39;t think you can reserve bar seats either so if that%26#39;s for the bar as well, you could wind up standing I think.

$85? Are you serious? That doesn%26#39;t include dinner? That seems absolutely ridiculous. Most jazz clubs in NY charge about $25-$45 and that includes 2 drinks. WOW!




The Carlyle Bar is nice ( no cover), if slow service is ok with you. As for $85 cover for seeing Woody Allen play the piano. that%26#39;s a personal choice. Does it include a couple of well drinks...I don%26#39;t lmow.




If it%26#39;s $85 admittance each with nothing included and just to sit at the bar then I think we%26#39;ll give it a miss - think of all the stuff I could buy instead!




We were also tempted to go see woody allen play,but then when we summed it all up and received some great replies here,we then decided on the ';Vanguard ';monday night which is $30 and include $10 of drinks.Sounds like a really good night we have booked for the middle March will let you know how we get on!!




Good choice, $85.00 is ridiculous, IMO. YOu will love it!
