Cachaça Jazz ‘n’ Samba Club
It’s named after the potent sugarcane liquor used to make caipirinhas; and rightly so—you’re going to need a few of those to make it through a night here. This isn’t the kind of spot you just pop into; you better really like jazz fat cat because the cover is $10 and there’s a $15 minimum. (Money, baby!) Once inside, though, you’ll be privy to an intimate Brazilian-themed room that boasts insanely good acoustics (although we can’t promise insanely good music) and three different sets at 9pm, 11pm, and 1am. Get tanked on exotic drinks such as caipiroskas (er, it’s the Russian version) and batidas de coco, but just remember that a quiet policy applies during each performance. Can’t buy your way out of that one, daddy-o.

The best of the village

Cachaca Jazz & Samba is easily the single greatest nightlife experience I have found in the village. This club simply has everything. The small and intimate setup makes it a great date spot, as does the incredibly good drink menu and very very welcoming staff. If you come out with some buddies just for the music you're also in luck. The early 7pm sets are almost always free, the weeknight sets are either 5 or 10 bucks, and for you music lovers the higher 20 dollar weekend cover is well worth the act for Fridays and Saturdays. The jazz scene at Cachaca is highlighted by Brazilian music, and this very nicely depicted by a giant mural blending New York and Rio as you enter the club. The bar is a perfect size, with perfect drinks, and perfect bartenders. The room is tuned for acoustic bass, making the sound low, warm, and evocative of that classic jazz sound. THIS is the best buy in New York.
