The Wren is the anchor of the eclectic bar and restaurant community of the Bowery neighborhood. Opened in 2011, the bar is a bustling, high-volume gastropub serving unassuming yet excellent food by Chef Russell Ashton in a cozy atmosphere, and is proud to be known as the neighborhood trend-setter in a burgeoning eating and drinking destination. Our private event space, The Wren Downstairs, is the perfect location for corporate events, team outings, and social gatherings.
