Peg’s Cavalier is a bar and live music venue located in Astoria, Queens. Originally opening in 1965 as a neighborhood bar, it gained prominence in the late 20th and early 21st centuries as a significant hub for independent music, particularly showcasing jazz and experimental genres. The venue is known for its intimate setting and focus on supporting emerging artists alongside established names. It underwent renovations in 2023 following a fire but has since reopened and continues to operate as a dedicated space for live performance. The building itself dates back to the early 20th century with architectural features reflecting that period.
