Signage is up for 5s at 179 Avenue B between 11th Street and 12th Street.
The establishment is reportedly centered on the concept of the number five. According to a piece in The New York Business Journal in February, "There will be five food items, five specialty cocktails, five draft beers, five canned beers in the refrigerator and five wines on the menu."
The space will feature a kitchen counter and bar... as well as a pool table.
According to its space-holder website:
"Here at 5s we're dedicated to providing a comfortable place for locals to come gather and relax. A real 'good times place.'"
5s is expected to open later this summer. You can follow them on Instagram for updates.
The storefront has been vacant for the past six years following the closure of Guac.
H/T Brian!
