Coyote Ugly is closed for remodeling; 'rebirth' on the way

We spotted workers gutting the Coyote Ugly space at 153 First Ave. yesterday … (at one point the crew dragged out the actual bar — oh and we missed that photo op! Think of all that Lynyrd Skynyrd the bar has endured!).

Anyway, here's the deal via the Coyote Ugly website:

Tue, May 27 — Tue, Jun 3 Closed for Remodeling
Wed, Jun 5 — Grand Reopening 5:00 PM

Please come back to the future with us at our grand reopening and let us shower you with the power of love in our new and improved bar! We can't wait to celebrate our rebirth with you!

Coyote Ugly opened here between East 9th Street and East 10th Street on Jan. 27, 1993.

RIP old bar… #woo

  1. Remodeling, or as Coyote Ugly puts it, scraping the vomit stains off of the beer stains underneath so we can see the beer stains more clearly.

  2. But did those bartenders come to NYC to become a songwriter and brought demo tapes with them? Hell no, H2O!

    And when did the EV turn into Midwest? Oh, wait...

  3. It will take two days to clean the bathrooms?

  5. Moe: Oh, everybody is going to family restaurants these days, tsk. Seems nobody wants to hang out in a dank pit no more.

    Carl: You ain't thinking of getting rid of the dank, are you, Moe?

    Moe: Ehh, maybe I am.

    Carl: Oh, but Moe: the dank. The dank!

  6. I know I may be in the minority here, but I kind of like the dank skanky feel of the place.
    This is a place without hipsters... A place to drink PBR without irony...
    Its corporate and no mars bar... but what have we left?

  7. But where will the douchebags and fratboys of the bridge-and-tunnel go now? Oh, right, East Village now is full of these bars that cater to them.
