Book Club Bar reopens after a spring spruce-up

Book Club Bar is back in action today following a brief closure. 

As previously reported, the bookstore-bar at 197 E. Third St., just west of Avenue B, closed on May 4 for repairs, maintenance and a general refresh of the space. 

We stopped by last evening for a quick look and caught up with co-owners Erin Neary and Nat Esten...
The temp closure also timed with the opening of a second Book Club Bar location in Bushwick, which debuted on Troutman Street on May 2. 

The EV outpost is open daily: Sunday-Wednesday 9 a.m. to midnight; Thursday-Saturday 9 a.m. to 1 a.m.
