Ferns, the bistro-bar at 166 First Ave., has announced a closing date after more than seven years in business between 10th Street and 11th Street.
Feb. 26 is the last day.
In an Instagram post from last week, owner Michael Bailey (who also operates The Belfrey on 14th Street) wrote, in part:
We face a number of challenges that are hardly unique: high rents, rising costs, and economic uncertainty, to name a few. We've put up a hell of a fight, but our time has come to turn the page. While this chapter is coming to an end, we look back on it with nothing but gratitude for the support and love this community has shown us.
