East Village to somehow get frattier: What's coming to the former Telephone Bar

A reader passed along the news of the new bar coming to the old Telephone space... the 13th Step



From the frat-friendly folks behind The Stumble Inn, Off the Wagon and Down the Hatch.

Previously on EV Grieve:
The Telephone Bar and Grill closing after 22 years

What's coming to The Telephone Bar space? Some fratty debauchery, perhaps

  1. it's the Jake's Dilemma people who were supposedly opening in the old Grace & Hope Mission space on 3rd and 14th. i guess they found a new way in. and that block, already a misery to be avoided thanks to the flocks of drunken crowds, gets another one "down the hatch."

  3. Weak... and only about a hundred feet from my bedroom window. Telephone/Ryan's/Thirsty Scholar on that block were about as good as you can expect in terms of non-obnoxious patrons, rarely lines outside and low noise. No longer it would seem.
