Fat Black Pussycat

Welcome to FBPC ( a Fat Black Pussycat ) , a New York bar that has everything… Our front room (formerly the Kettle of Fish) maintains its historic roots to old NY's Greenwich Village. A gallery of Village faces, in photographs and paintings line the walls, documenting the bar’s history since the 1950’s.
The back room, hidden behind the curtain is a spectacular lounge. Oriental rugs, Moroccan lanterns and the remnants of the buildings original 1880’s windows (now bricked) set the tone. The music – choice selections from the greatest artists of Africa, the Caribbean, the Middle East, and the entire world – set the backdrop. And, if there’s ever a “best lounge seating” competition, this place will win. Antique couches, a full-on throne, and other plush places to plant yourself fill the large space, forming a variety of cozy conversation pits. This is the last thing you’d expect to find on one of the most tourist visited streets in the Village.
Our downstairs sister club “The Village Underground” is an exciting, and utterly unique spot. Designed by ICRAVE (of Pangaea fame) this 2,800 square foot venue incorporates a loungy atmosphere with high energy dancing and live Music. The Underground offers its customers excellent bottle or cocktail service. This beautiful hot spot is perfect for special events, private parties, corporate functions, drinks with friends or any occasion. All this with some of the best 10 ounce Martinis in the city, and you can see why CitySearch chose us as one the top 10 bars in New York.
We all will make sure our customers have a good time and are happy. If you want to set up a table for you and your friends go to http://thefatblackpussycat.com/party-inquiry/ or text us at owner@fbpc.com
