Julius, Bar is a historic establishment located on the corner of Waverly Place and West 10th Street that has been a popular spot for sports figures, celebrities, and gay men since its inception in the mid-19th century. It was the site of the famous "Sip-In" organized by members of the Mattachine Society in 1966 to challenge New York State Liquor Authority regulations that prohibited bars from serving drinks to suspected gays and lesbians. Today, Julius' continues to serve as a popular gay bar, pub, and bar & grill in Greenwich Village.

Julius, Bar is a historic establishment located on the corner of Waverly Place and West 10th Street in New York City. With roots dating back to the mid-19th century, Julius' has been a popular spot for sports figures and celebrities since the 1930s. In the 1960s, it became known as a gathering place for gay men, and played an important role in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights.
In April of 1966, members of the Mattachine Society organized what became known as the "Sip-In" at Julius', challenging New York State Liquor Authority regulations that prevented bars from serving drinks to known or suspected gay men or lesbians. This event was part of a larger campaign to clarify laws and rules that inhibited the running of gay bars as legitimate establishments and to stop harassment of gay bar patrons.
Today, Julius' continues to be a beloved neighborhood pub and bar & grill. The atmosphere is welcoming and friendly, with a diverse crowd of locals and visitors alike. The menu features classic pub fare like burgers and fries, as well as a variety of beers on tap. Whether you're looking for a casual night out with friends or want to soak up some history while enjoying a drink, Julius' is definitely worth checking out.
