Whatever the legal drinking age in New York, it is the owner/proprietor prerogative to control the age of his patrons. For many valid reasons he may choose to bar persons under that legal age to avoid mistaken age identity of the patrons and run afoul of the ABC laws and run the risk of losing his business license for allowing underage drinking.

The legal drinking age in NJ is 21 years. However, the owner/proprietor can set any age they wish for admission. Many do so in order to avoid confusion with the ages of the customers and avoid problems with the police and/or ABC inspectors which could cause them to lose their license.

There is no "legal age". The minimum age is set by the club. There are some clubs that allow ages 16 and up, there are even some clubs that have middle school nights for ages 12 to 14. Of course, for the majority of clubs, the minimum age is 18, but there are also many clubs whose minimum age is 21 or even 24.
