“This past weekend the Velvet Brooklyn staff hosted my 32nd Mean Girls themed birthday party in their private lounge. Jose the event coordinator & GM, plus the rest of the Velvet Brooklyn staff were all very attentive & just AMAZINGGG with helping make my celebration such a special night!!!! From helping me set up a laptop to stream the movie on their screen behind the bar while the party was in motion, to just being so friendly & consistent with checking in. The lounge was perfect for my party. I had private catering come in before I arrived to set up the food and again the venue was so accommodating in assisting my caterer with whatever she needed. The night was so much fun, all of my guests were having a great time. I had a great time & would definitely recommend Velvet Brooklyn to anyone who is looking for a fabulous space to host their special events. Also I would like to shout out the owner, Phil for also being so wonderful throughout the whole booking process. Thank you Phil, you have a great staff behind you - keep up the great work & I will be stopping by soon to enjoy some cocktails!!!”
— Samantha O“My fiancé and I recently had our engagement party at Velvet and it was better than we could have ever expected! We cannot recommend Jose and the Velvet team enough! From the beginning, Jose was so personable and felt excited about our party. It was super easy to communicate with him and every interaction was so genuine! Our party was so much fun and we received many compliments from our friends and family about the venue and the service. We felt like everything was taken care of and knew we were in good hands that entire night. Even though our party is over, we now consider ourselves regulars! We would definitely recommend Jose, his team, and this venue for any private party or just for a night of cocktails! You can’t go wrong!”
— Madison Daniels“Jose and his team were incredibly hospitable and friendly throughout the entire process from initial contact till the very last minute of the event. Our private event was well organized and Jose frequently checked in with me and my guests to make sure everything was going smoothly. Not to mention the food and cocktails were all delicious! I highly recommend Velvet Brooklyn for any private event!”
— Andrew Kim“Velvet Brooklyn is incredible. I just had my Halloween / bday party in their private lounge last weekend and couldn't have asked for a better experience. The space is beautiful, and every aspect of the planning and hosting process was an absolute joy thanks to Phil (owner), Jose (GM/event coordinator), and the rest of the super kind, professional staff. I received a speedy response to every email, accommodation of all my requests, and the most fun, attentive day-of team ever. Thank you for a spectacular night!”
