The Rabbit Hole is a late-night bar in Astoria, Queens, that takes private parties and events on two floors: a main floor for larger groups and a smaller room called The Dirty Library. The venue lists holiday parties, birthdays, corporate gatherings, sports and fight nights, fantasy football drafts and movie or TV rentals.
Seminars and company events
The Rabbit Hole names corporate gatherings among the events it hosts, next to holiday celebrations and casual get-togethers with friends. It is a bar rather than a conference venue, so the format that suits it is the team party, the end-of-year celebration or an after-work gathering with a sound system. The site does not mention a projector, a screen or meeting furniture, so a working session is not what this place sells.
The booking form asks for the type of event, the desired date and time, an estimated guest count and an estimated budget, which gives the team what it needs to answer. A second form on the same page asks for the number of guests, the occasion and any special requests.
Rooms and capacities
The venue has two event spaces, and the official site gives no headcount for either one, so ask the team for the figures that fit your group.
The Main Floor is described as the place for larger groups. It blends modern and retro elements, with a high-quality sound system and comfortable seating, and it is suited to lively events and festive parties.
The Dirty Library is the second room. The venue describes it as retro but modern, with distinctive decor and subtle lighting, and suited to personal celebrations or gatherings. The name also appears next to The Rabbit Hole in some listings, which is why this room is the one to name in your request if you want the smaller setting.
Catering
The site does not describe an event catering package. The Rabbit Hole runs a full bar and a kitchen, with a menu, happy hour specials from Monday to Friday between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m., and an online ordering option. Ask the team at the quote stage whether food is ordered from the regular menu, whether a set menu is possible and how drinks are handled for a private group.
History and setting
The Rabbit Hole sits at 38-04 Broadway in Astoria, Queens. It opens late: from 1 p.m. to 2 a.m. on Sunday, from 5 p.m. to 2 a.m. Monday through Thursday, from 5 p.m. to 4 a.m. on Friday and from 1 p.m. to 4 a.m. on Saturday. Its public calendar includes karaoke on Thursdays and watch parties for major sports and boxing events, so a private booking has to fit around that program.
The venue also rents its space for sports games, fights and movie or TV screenings, which is useful for a group that wants a private viewing.
Getting there
The address is 38-04 Broadway, Astoria, NY 11103. The venue lists a telephone number on its website for questions before you submit the form. The site does not give transit directions, so confirm the nearest subway stop for your guests with the team.
