First datasheet here. I'll preface this saying that I'm not into day game whatsoever, and I've found that when I do try to get into it, my night game suffers as a result. I get too serious, and picking up girls becomes less about fun, and I become more result oriented which girls can sense. I tend to overthink everything in life, so I do best when I just jump straight off the cliff without thinking. Girls come naturally when I'm having fun.

In total, I've been in NYC for about 6 months - off and on. Been here now for 2 1/2 months straight. As an ex-introvert, this city has changed me for the better. It forces you out your comfort zone regardless if you like it or not. You can truly surround yourself by the most successful people here, which is hard to do in many other places. Career and pussy wise, this is the best place in the world to be, IMO. Wrestlers have a saying, "Once you've wrestled, everything else in life is easy." I believe the same thing about NYC, once you've been here - every where else is easy.

Unless I pull, nights ending at 4-5am are common for me and I don't usually wake up until 3-4pm. Usually always roll solo. I drink a shit ton. Even though I don't follow my own advice, I'd recommend pre-gaming pretty hard before going out if you like drinking. Drinks are expensive here. I've spent $10k in a month here. $1,500 on rent in LES, $500 on food. Effectively that means $8k on drinks. YOLO??

All venues will be ordered by my most to least favorite.

(edit: West Village, NoLita, Greenwich Village are worth checking out as well - too many places!)

East Village

Tied with Lower East Side in terms of quality of women and venues. I slightly prefer EV over LES as it suits my game better. I've found the dance floors in this neighborhood to be better overall.

Elvis Guest House ($$)
Seems like pretty attractive girls come here if you get there early, by EV standards. As the night goes on, the ratio becomes worse and worse. Hip Hop/Electronic music usually playing. Dark and crowded, fog machine.

Bar None ($)
Dance floor in the back is open on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Hip hop/top 40 type playlist. A lot of NYU students come here as their dorms are right next door. They're not very strict on IDs, as I've brought back both a 19 and 20 year old from this place. Easy girls

Continental ($)
Only worth mentioning for the drink prices. Buy one drink for $6 or so, and get 7 shots of ANYTHING for $10. Can be a great line, "wow this deal is so amazing but I can't possibly take 7 shots by myself haha." Crowd is usually of the darker skin. Have met a couple wingmen from here.

Berlin ($$)
Underground rock n' roll bar/club thing. Have been getting into this scene more as of late. People into this rock n roll shit can get pretty wild, always a good time hanging with them.

Penny Farthing ($$)
Classier Bar None (biggest compliment-insult), but it is right across the street. Setup is easy for me to approach, girls are always pretty receptive. Seems a bit bro-ey at times.

Phebe's ($$)
A bit fratty and a lot of bros for my taste, but quite a few girls from Tindr have wanted to come here. Will come here if I'm desperate for places.

Lower East Side

Coming in as a close second to EV, LES is where I call home. My logistics are superb for this hood, but for as good as they are, I don't pull nearly enough from here. Still scratching my head on that one. Maybe it's my venue choices.

Bar 169 ($)
For a dive bar, this place usually always has a phenomenal ratio. Drinks are really cheap, and if you are generous with your tips - the bartenders here will hook you up. Nothing more I hate when I drop $$$ several times on tips, and get no thanks in return. No dance floor which really is a huge negative for me, but it makes up for it with prices and amount of girls.

Mr. Purple Rooftop ($$$)
When I'm feeling like a douche and don't feel like going to Meatpacking, I come here. Throw on business casual clothes or a suit and hit up some girls that all have 100k followers on Instagram. Good place to network.

Pianos ($$)
Come here on a Wednesday night when everything else is dead, but this place always has some crowd. Dance floor upstairs, normal bar downstairs. Filled with tourists 24/7. I like to get a stamp at 8pm on a TH-FRI-SAT, immediately leave, and use it as a last resort.

Happy Ending ($$$)
Strict door, if you don't bring girls or have a friend, you're probably going to get pestered to buy a bottle. Not really worth, but have met some successful artsy people here and one of the hottest blondes of my life here. Dance floor downstairs playing dat gangsta rap.

Hair of the Dog ($$)
Gets so fucking crowded. I like crowds but this is a bit much sometimes. Not sure how I feel about this place honestly, but have had success with a couple stunning girls so can't rag on it too hard. Usually packed.

Welcome to the Johnson’s ($)
$2 PBR, cute rocker girls always sitting at the bar alone. Ok, I'll take it.

Midtown

Don't frequent it that much, but I should. More my scene. Whereas LES and EV are more college students and art kids living off their parents or trust funds, I feel like you'll meet more people who have real jobs and are making it on their own here.

Baccarat Hotel Bar ($$$$)
Insanely fancy and expensive, lots of hot EE looking girls here - pretty sure some of them are high class P4P. $24 cocktails. Had a wild night here. Met a 60 year old surgeon being escorted by two hot chicks, he took me under his wing. All drinks on him. We knew every one at the bar by the end of the night. He ended up taking back one of the girls, and I left with the other one to a place called Tanner Smith's. Great place to network, I reckon.

Calico Jack's ($$)
Next door to McFaddens, so two good options if you get tired of this place. Frequented by the darker skinned population, which I enjoy sometimes. McFaddens isn't. Good dance floor, rap music.

Tonic East ($$)
Have been here a few times for sports games. Gets wild, ratio a bit skewed towards men, but lots of freshly graduated sorority girls looking for the D.

Turtle Bay ($$)
Never really been at a good time, but have heard lots about this place. Dance floor upstairs, looks like it can get really good.

230 5th Ave Rooftop Bar ($$$)
Too many damn PUA's here. Aside from that, a lot of tourists come here if you're into that. Great views. Not sure if worth.

Meatpacking District

Gets a bad rep, but if you play it right, it can be really fun! Playground for girls who have realized their value. Most stunners, for sure. Hard to get into most of the places unless you have 2-3 HBBs per guy, or are willing to spend money. My advice? Meet a promoter. Do it right and you get past every doorman and get free drinks when normally they're pricey as fuck anywhere here.

PhD ($$$)
Playing Top 40 type music. Small dance floor up front, rest of the place is too crowded with reserved tables. Every one here is from out of town it seems. Easy to work your way into a table.

Electric Room ($$$)
Basement of PhD. More electronic music, tinier dance floor than PhD. Can only recommend coming here once you know a promoter. Bar space isn't very large.

Le Bain ($$$)
Easier door, weirder people. If you're not with HBB's, they're going to ask if you have a reservation or who you're with probably. Just go on their FB page and look at the non-main DJ and drop their name. Hot tub inside, cool view. Hotter girls elsewhere.

Nice man. +1

Didn't read all, so you might have mentioned this. But I would recommend hitting up the Latin bars and clubs. NYC has to be swimming in Latin pussy.

Post: #3

Funny as hell.. Ive been to most of these places and forgot about all of them when I went to NYC last time... I'll be hitting these places up when I go back.

I know a promoter so I have been to all of these spots... Avenue, PhD, electric room and Le Bain in the last year or so. Its mostly bottle game though and im a bit tired of that in NYC. I will be hitting up the bars with dancefloors for sure.

I live in NYC as well, right next to Tonic East in fact. I was thinking of doin a datasheet but you beat me to it :-D

Great info overall, been to all these places many times and it's always fun. I love NYC nightlife.

I would add:

Hotel Chantelle in the LES - this used to be off the hook until a few years ago. Insane talent, then it got a little meh. Still not a bad spot, but it's a good idea to get there by 10:30 or so.

Up & Down in the Meatpacking - this is supposedly the in place these days, along with 1Oak.

Some other noteworthy mentions, although these might not be the best for pick-up (just nice spots to check out if you're hangin with friends):

LES:

Nitecap
The Back Room

There's definitely cute Latinas to be found in the city, but I have yet to find an area of town similar to the LES or EV with compact nightlife but lots of Latinas. I've been way up town in my quest for this holy grail of sorts, but didn't find much that impressed me.

If anyone could shed some light, I'd def appreciate it!

Great additions! Agreed 100%

Haven't tried hard enough to get into 1Oak yet, but it's all the rage. Hotel Chantelle, how did I forget that? Great place

Definitely try Gonzales y Gonzales on Mercer street during the weekends. A lot of Spanish speaking girls in there. I think the dancing is meant to be focused on salsa, so I'm at a bit of a disadvantage, but the talent was quite nice!

Post: #7

Love places that play reggaeton and bachata with a little salsa mixed in. Latin girls are much more approachable in my experience (non NYC)

Thanks for the heads up! I've actually been there before for happy hour, but I'll give it a shot sometime on a Fri/Sat night to see what's up!

This is expansive of what I saw a few months ago. When I go back in a month or two I'll definitely reference this.

$10k in one month? Out of my budget but thanks for the datasheet. For that kind of money just pack to Kiev and see your results go up five fold. Probably could get a penthouse for the amount of money you're dropping. Then again if you're here on business makes sense.

Post: #11

Duly noted, looking forward to dropping a $10k/month datasheet from Kiev

Seriously tho, you don't need $10k. I'm just dumb as fuck and don't pay attention to my spending, too much effort.

Post: #12

If you're spending $10k a month living in NYC and going for notches, spend most of your money on, in order of priority:

- rent: baller pad, great location, stylish furnishings, no roommates

- social events: museum memberships, exhibition openings, charity events, galleries, etc.

- restaurants / food: Man's gotta eat, go solo, whether it's at a hot 'fast casual' lunch spot or posting up at a restaurant bar; game on

- lock down a bar: first you need a local or two right by your apartment where you can take a date or a chick you just met the same night, and a higher end spot in Meatpacking for example, whatever scene you're into

- social media: tinder plus, and some professional quality photos; instagram, follow liker, and remember to take dope photos of all of the above

- drinks: buy a flask and a bottle of nice whiskey for the price of a night out; drugs will get you more lays than alcohol will

There's too much going on in this city to stick to just your typical bar/club short term night game

You can do all this on much less than $10k/mo, for the record

$1500 a month in LES? Where do you live, a homeless guy's spare tupperware? Rent for a 1br there is around 2200 or more.

Yeah I'm curious on the really low rent too... do you have a lot of roommates to cut that cost down?

I'm looking to live in NYC for a few months after I finish up my business in SoCal, so I'm always interested in figuring out data points for short term rentals.

Place is actually really nice, it never fails to get compliments when I bring a girl back. Entrance to building is fancy. All new kitchen appliances, marble countertops, modern brown cabinets, brick facades, great lighting and rooftop. Have two other roommates though, which can be a bit annoying at times but never had a problem. Location is among the most prime you can get. LES rent is actually not that bad comparatively.

Found it randomly on Craigslist. There are actually better deals if you look long enough. I'd suggest also liking the Facebook page, "Gypsy Housing NYC"

How does NYC compare to LA?

I'm in a position to answer this with some authority, having lived for many years in both LA and NYC, and that too in the nicer parts of both - Santa Monica/WeHo/Westside in LA, and Manhattan (Murray Hill area) in NYC.

I'll save you the bullshit and jump straight to the tl;dr: NYC is orders of magnitude better than LA for single guys. No question about it. There is a long running LA thread on here and you can go read for yourself why it's so much more difficult there, so I won't repeat the argument here. But if I had to pick between NYC and LA for getting laid, I'd pick NYC every single time.

I just found out today I'll be moving to NYC in a month! Appreciate the datasheet! Let me know when there are meetups

As a NYCer, I co-sign this as being a great Manhattan datasheet.
