Smalls Jazz Club
The night-owl's jazz room. Smalls is a classic basement — speakeasy-feel, packed, open seven days late — where the late-night jam sessions are where players actually take risks. I come after a cocktail uptown and stay for the 1am session, which is where the magic is. One cover can also get you into Mezzrow, the piano room across the street.
A speakeasy-feel basement where musicians hang and the after-hours jam runs till the small hours.
