Happy Hour at The Wren
The Wren is a handsome NoHo gastropub at 344 Bowery, an airy, high-ceilinged room strung with Edison bulbs and willow branches that reads more bar-with-great-food than restaurant-with-a-bar. It leans Irish gastropub, with seasonal cocktails, a deep and vintage-leaning beer list and a kitchen that punches above its weight.
It has long been a reliable after-work spot for the downtown professional crowd, and the draws are the patio, the weekend brunch and a genuinely useful weekday happy hour. Monday through Friday from 3 to 7pm, cocktails, drafts and wine all come down in price.
The Happy Hour
Happy hour runs Monday through Friday from 3pm to 7pm, with select cocktails around $12, $2 off select drafts and wine by the glass near $10. Wednesdays add a $30 bottle-of-wine deal that runs all day. Prices can shift, so double-check the current specials when you order, ideally from a seat on the patio.
The Room
The space is bright and lofty for a Bowery bar, with tall ceilings, warm Edison-bulb lighting, willow-branch decor and seating broken into cozy bays. Out front is the big draw: an outdoor patio that regulars rank among the best on the Bowery.
