Arlene's Grocery

Ziltoid

Typical NYC venue with angry has-been locals that hate you. They hate you for no other reason then they failed at becoming an artist or rockstar or whatever. Expect rude bounces, a filthy bathroom and bartenders that will ignore you, over charge on already overly priced drinks and short pour on already watered down booze. Maybe three good bands play here a year. The rest are mind numbingly boring. But hey, it’s Rock n’ Roll and it’s NYC so it’s cool, said no one since 1996.

it’s ridiculous that coat check is required.. especially for girls who may feel uncomfortable with taking off their garments. it just seems like an easy a$3 for them (just unnecessary)

Really cool space and the front has better drinks 🍸 than the back bar. But the bands are amazing.

The one star was because the bartender not only didn't give me the receipt but also refused to give me one after I asked for it. She simply said, "It automatically charges tax and tip, we don't give receipts". She told me the total charged on the card after everything. That was bizarre so I decided to check my statement the next day and the charge was way more than what she told to me. I would be careful with this place.
