As we stand with our community in supporting the health and safety of our family, both staff and patrons, Arlene's Grocery has made the difficult decision to close and postpone our upcoming calendar of shows. During this crisis we must ask our community for your kindness in whatever form of donation you can give to our staff down at the Grocery. There is no way to know what the future holds at this moment but we look forward to celebrating with you when this is all over.

Our bartenders, barbacks, and box office have been the friendly faces you see time and time again. They keep your beers flowing and the conversation genuine.
Our sound engineers, production staff and talent buyers pride themselves on giving bands and guests the best sound quality, best musical freedom and exceptional show experience possible.
Our security keeps you safe so that only the good times will roll.
 
For 25 years Arlene's Grocery has lived in the Lower East Side.  Not only have we supported the music scene with shows every night of the week but we have supported the neighborhood over the years and are now looking for your support in any way you can. Sharing is powerful and every little bit helps!

Be safe and we'll see you at the bar soon!! - Arlene’s Grocery
