Hosted an event in their downstairs room and it was great! Elizabeth who does their special events was phenomenal to work with and was so communicative throughout the entire process. Maxwell who was the manager on the night of the event was so kind and helpful. The whole staff was great. Only thing I’d say is that the downstairs room is said to fit max 50 people for a private event and we had 30 and any more would’ve been tight.
I don't know what it was about this place, but left feeling very uninspired.
Came here for drinks, and when we got there the host was going back and forth on whether we would be able to sit outside or not: Snip, snap! Snip, snap!
We did end up getting a seat outside, and the ambiance was nice but the traffic going up and down bowery had me unable to hear my own thoughts at points.
After a subpar espresso martini, I pivoted to a Watermelon High that also ended up being subpar. Just a bit too sugary for my liking.
Wish I could give 3.5 stars, as this was the poster child experience for 3.5 stars.

I dare say the best chicken sandwich I’ve ever had, and I’m quite the chicken sandwich connoisseur! The burger was also phenomenal. Good outdoor ambiance!
Came here after work with coworkers and it was a chill yet a bit upscale vibe. I would place this bar on the more casual side with good cocktails. We sat at one of the tables, but the bar seemed to be popping. The ages of people there were between 24-34 on a Friday night around 8pm. We also got the fries and fried cauliflower snacks and they weren’t bad for a bar.
Really love this environment, super cute aesthetic of a restaurant with a large venue. Great spot for dinner, happy hour, or more. Have gotten both food and drinks here but really love the drinks. Really enjoy there espresso martinis and cucumber drinks. Overall I definitely recommend!! Great service and great vibes.
cute bar around east village/les 〰️ got shishito peppers, fried cauliflowers, and fish n chip. shishito peppers were a bit too sour (confirmed by my friend). fried cauliflowers were the best; so crispy. fish n chip was average.
for drinks, i got midnight espresso which was soooo impressive and i was still able to sleep at night 🎈

The weather in NY was hot and we just wanted to take a seat, have a bite and drink. This is the first place we cross by, and went for it. I'm glad we did, it was ok and I'm not sure if I'd come back especifically to this place, but it wasn't a disappointment. The service was really good and we get at a time when there were many tables available. The drinks were really good and the food is ok. The Brussel sprouts different from other versions with cranberries and pumpkin seeds was really tasty and really good. Btw, one hour later this place was packed. I'll invite it try this place.
The lights draw you in and the drinks make you stay. The ambiance of Wren is enjoyable. We sat for a quick bite and soon realized time was going. The drinks were good. Our server gave us his opinion and helped make a great decision on drinks. Fries were good, especially with the white sauce. The fish and chips were good. Chicken sandwich was fulling. But the macaroni and cheese was missing something. Made with a cream sauce, shredded cheese on top, not melted and a spoonful of bread crumbs. Not the best idea.
