DADA Bar

About the Space

Located in the heart of Ridgewood, our elegant and versatile venue is artist-owned, and ideal for events ranging from formal receptions, to intimate gatherings and work functions. The decor has modernist touches, with Scandinavian designer furniture, wood and marble details, and a carefully curated selection of art pieces. Dada features a craft cocktail bar and indoor space, with a secluded and stylish outdoor garden area with seating. A full range of café and bar services are available, as well as a modest tapas-style menu. The wine and cocktail selection are expertly curated. We tailor each event to individual and specific needs. Tiered open bar packages are available, with a selection of nonalcoholic drinks, beer, mixed drinks, as well as our organic and natural wines. Our food menu is also tailored to each event, and can include a variety of dishes, with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free options available.
