Basement is a warehouse-style nightclub and event space sitting right on the Ridgewood/Maspeth border in Queens, hosting weekend dance parties and DJ-driven events typical of the neighborhood's underground club scene. Its Yelp listing shows 34 reviews and categorizes it under venues/event spaces rather than a traditional bar or restaurant.
According to Yelp, the venue keeps a tight schedule — open only Friday and Saturday nights, roughly 10pm to 5am, closed the rest of the week — so any door line or wait would realistically be concentrated in those late-night weekend windows around scheduled events. We did not find specific reported wait-time figures or review quotes about line length in our search, so treat timing guidance here as general rather than measured.

Damnlines doesn't have a live camera at this venue yet, so we can't show a real-time line count or wait time. From what we found, Basement is a weekend-only nightclub/event space, and as with most ticketed warehouse-style clubs in the area, door waits are most likely during peak late-night hours on party nights — we didn't find specific reported wait-time numbers beyond that, so treat any estimate as a general guideline, not a live count.
Per its Yelp listing, Basement operates Friday and Saturday nights only, roughly 10pm to 5am, and is closed Sunday through Thursday. Nightclub hours can shift around specific booked events, so it's worth checking the venue's own event/ticket listings before heading over.
We didn't find an explicit reservation policy in our search. Venues like this typically sell advance tickets for specific parties or DJ sets rather than taking table reservations, so check the venue's event listings or ticketing page ahead of time rather than assuming walk-in entry.
